This was our first time leaving our little Golden doodle with Samantha. I will say, I was a bit intimidated by leaving him with a pit bull there, but upon meeting the pit bull he was the sweetest big dog ever. My worries immediately vanished! There were a couple other dogs there, so that was nice. There was one dog a bit too interested in my little guy, so I didn’t want to leave until he calmed down. Samantha never made me feel rushed to leave or weird. She was super patient and asking me if I wanted the dogs split up, or inside or outside. I really thought that said a lot about the person I was leaving our baby with and I really liked that. I say all that to say, you can’t always control how dogs will interact with each other, but you can control how you react to them and Samantha was very calm, kind and friendly. She never looked overwhelmed or nervous. She was a bit embarrassed I think because of the initial behavior of this other dog she was caring for, but I understood that wasn’t a reflection of her care. We left out little guy there 3 days and she communicated through the day with updates, sent photos and even went the extra step of boiling and egg to mix it with my dogs food since we do that for him at home too. I’m thankful we found someone to watch our guy for when we need it! Highly recommend! 10 out of 10!

Julie & Kenneth took such great care of our boy! We were sent daily picture updates of all the fun activities. I could tell that Dallas felt completely at home with them. Dallas is an elder with medication and anxiety and Julie & Kenneth handled all medications and special care instructions with grace. We will definitely rebook with them in the future!

About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years. Overseas during covid that was my main job and I had over 25 clients. I can help with medications given, dog walks, dog check in or do in home boarding. I do live a short walk from a park, so can also do playtime and walks at the park as well! I am available for drop ins visits, long or short walks or boarding in my home. If you are Active Duty, going TDY, etc. Or just a fur parent with no help, please let me know ahead of time so I can help you the best I can! I have a fenced in back yard with a lot of space. I have 3 senior dogs that love other dogs, but I also have plenty of space to keep dogs separated if needed. I also live walking distance from my local park. Smoke free home.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Armonee. My dogs first time with a boarder and she could not have made things easier for him and me. Her communication is top tier with regular texts, photos and concerns. She is caring, gentle and tailors her approach to fit the animals needs, like she did with my special needs senior dog. She treats pets like they are her own and it is obvious from the moment you meet her. I trusted her completely and will be rebooking with her in the future. Highly, highly recommend if you are looking for a safe and loving place for your pet. My dog came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for.

I could not have asked for a better dog sitter! From the very beginning, Shanae was professional, dependable, and incredibly caring with my dog. It was clear that she truly loves animals and treats them like family. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. Shanae went above and beyond to make sure all routines, feeding schedules, walks, and playtime were handled perfectly. When I returned home, it was obvious that my dog had been loved and cared for exceptionally well. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter. I will absolutely be using her again in the future! Thanks again Shanae!

About: I have had cats since I was about 6 years old and caring for them has always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I have cared for cats with many different personalities, temperaments, and care needs. I have experience with kittens all the way to senior cats, including indoor cats, outdoor cats, and cats that are both indoor and outdoor. I understand that every cat is different. Some are playful and social while others need extra patience and a calm environment to feel comfortable. I am experienced with feeding routines, litter box cleaning, playtime, giving lots of attention, and making sure cats feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. As a cat owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will always treat your cats like my own and provide reliable, attentive, and loving care.

Chelsea took exceptional care of our cats while we were away. She communicated clearly and sent so many photos for us to see! Our kids missed the cats so much and being able to see them and know they were being loved meant the world to them. Our cats are very shy, but Chelsey was able to befriend them and give them some much needed snuggles. She not only followed the instructions we left, but she also went above and beyond to make sure we came home to a clean and nice smelling house. I will definitely check Chelsey's availability the next time we go away, as well as reccomend this app and Chelsey to anyone who is in need of pet sitting in the area. We are so impressed, thank you!!!!

She spent time with them playing and giving them lovin’ and put my mind at ease while I was away. She even went back because I had a special request of her.

Chris was awesome and took such great care of my fur babies! I got daily updates and though I know they likely ran and hid when he arrived each day, he let me know he spoke with them and played with their toys for a bit so they could hear. Upon my return, I got a warm welcome from both of The Boys and could tell that they were more relaxed. I didn't get the cold shoulder treatment as I typically do. I will definitely call on Chris again and I would highly recommend him!!

About: I am a dedicated pet lover with hands-on experience working at a professional boarding facility for a year, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. That experience taught me how to handle everything from high-energy pups to more anxious or shy dogs, always with patience and care. I also have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m available any time, any day, and offer a wide range of services including walks, drop-ins, and boarding. I’m very reliable and always keep owners updated with messages and photos so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, or just some extra love and attention, I’m here to help! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine since I’m available full-time and have a very flexible schedule. I plan my days around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Since I’m available any time, I can accommodate early mornings, late evenings, and last-minute bookings. Your pet will never be left alone for long periods, and I make sure they’re always a priority in my schedule. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I follow their normal feeding, walking, and sleeping schedules as closely as possible to keep things consistent and stress-free. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s routine exactly as instructed. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care like administering medication if needed. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and supervision at all times. With my experience working at a boarding facility, I’m comfortable handling different temperaments and ensuring every pet feels safe and well cared for.

About: I've had dogs my entire life and love caring for them as if they are my children. I've had puppies to senior dogs who have passed on, so I am very comfortable with any stage in a dog's life. I treat my dogs like my own children and I know how difficult it can be to find someone who cares for your pets the same way you do, but I promise you that I will care for your pets in the same way I care for my own! I am currently not working, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet(s). Whenever you need me, I will be there. I am comfortable doing whatever you need me to do in order to take care of your pets. I can give your pets any medications they might need as well as tender loving care.

About: I've grown up with dogs my entire life and I love all animals! I have experience with health issues and giving dogs medication. My family has trained and raised puppies, and rescued several senior and abused dogs. I also have experience with cats, rodents, and reptiles. I treat every animal I encounter with love, kindness, and patience. I love walking and playing with them, and becoming a friend. I am a recent engineering grad from Penn State. I can give quality love and attention to any animal that is in my care. My roommate works from home and I work during the day, so we available for care 24/7. I currently live in an home with 2 cats and 1 dog. We have a fenced in backyard. I will be very attentive and follow any directions left for your pet when they are in my care. Whether it is at my place or yours, I will do my best to treat your dog like family and to make sure they are as happy and comfortable as possible while you are away. If you create your pet, I just ask that you bring their crate as well as any blankets, toys, or treats that might help them feel more comfortable.

About: I have been around dogs since I was about 8 years old and have experience with both small and large breeds. I have owned 4 dogs myself and caring for dogs has always been something I genuinely enjoy. Over the years, I have gained experience with dogs of different ages, sizes, breeds, energy levels, and personalities. I understand that every dog has unique needs and routines, whether that means lots of playtime and exercise or a calmer, more relaxed environment. I am comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, basic care routines, and giving dogs the attention and patience they deserve while their owners are away. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will always treat your dogs like my own and provide reliable, loving, and attentive care. I’m currently working a flexible schedule and I am most consistently available in the afternoon and evening times during the weekdays and fully on the weekends to provide extra time for your animals! I have a fully fenced yard and the space/ability to crate as needed. I do currently have 2 friendly cats in home who are used to other cats/dogs. Each member of my household has experience with cats and dogs and would be excited to show yours some love and attention up close or far away! I always prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I understand that every animal has different needs and personalities, so I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and comfort levels whether inside your home or mine.

About: Ever since I was young animals have played a huge role in my life. From my first dog to the mini zoo I have today. I am familiar with many breeds of dogs and cats as well as reptiles and recognize each one has its own characteristics and personality. Whether it's a walk, play time, or just someone to keep your pet company, I will appreciate and enjoy my time with them. I am a stay at home father of two. I am available most days. I have been working with pets for the past 4 years M-F with the occasional weekend visits. I love what I do and I take pride in my ability to befriend all pets. I believe each and every person has a responsibility, when they take on a pet, to give it the best life with a loving owner. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 4 lizards, 2 turtles, and 4 fish who all get attention suited to their needs and desires while also being attentive to proper and healthy care.

His dogs were all great, too! Odin played the day away and we got updates and adorable pics, which were very much appreciated. We will definitely be sending him back! Highly recommend!

About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for over 18 years and have always been passionate about providing them with a safe, loving environment. I currently have a puppy of my own, so I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement when caring for pets of all ages. In addition to caring for my own pets, I've also provided care for a friend's senior dog while they were away on vacation, giving me experience with the extra patience and attention older dogs often need. I'm comfortable following detailed feeding schedules, administering oral medications, and caring for puppies, senior pets, and pets with unique routines. As a scientist, I'm naturally detail-oriented and observant, so I pay close attention to changes in behavior and always follow care instructions carefully. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I'll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Pet care is already a part of my daily routine! I have a puppy of my own, so my days naturally revolve around walks, feeding, playtime, training, and making sure she's happy and healthy. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve, whether that's sticking to their normal routine, providing plenty of exercise, or simply keeping them company. I always strive to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I'll follow your feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication instructions, and any other preferences you have to help your pet feel comfortable while you're away. In my home, pets will receive plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and a safe, clean environment. I use positive reinforcement and never harsh discipline. My puppy is friendly and well-socialized, and I'll always make sure introductions are done safely if applicable. In your home, I'll treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I'll make sure your pet receives lots of love and attention, fresh food and water, walks or playtime as needed, a clean litter box or potty area, and plenty of affection. I'll also send regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I love dogs of all sizes and ages! My family recently lost our pitbull, Emma, who was 7 years old, so my mom has temporarily kidnapped my Chihuahua so the house doesn't feel so lonely. Now my house feels a little too quiet without her around. I am loving, caring, trustworthy, and responsible! Your pet is free to roam around the house with me, and I'll make sure they feel comfortable and at home. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, to dog parks, on car rides, to the beach, and anywhere they can have fun and enjoy themselves (with your permission, of course). I like to keep dog parents updated with pictures & texts throughout their pet's stay. I understand that every dog has their own personality and unique needs, and I am committed to giving them the very best care while providing you with peace of mind. I will make sure your pet feels welcomed, loved, and right at home here! I work from home, so I'll be with your doggie for most of the day. The only time they'll be home alone is when I run errands. I care for pets in a safe, loving home with a fenced yard where they can play and get fresh air. They are treated like my own. I follow their normal routines, including feeding, walks, and playtime. I also send regular updates with photos and messages.

About: Hi, I’m Nancy! Dogs have been part of my family and my heart for over 26 years. I currently have 3 small dogs As a devoted dog mom, I’ve cared for dogs through every stage of life—from curious 8-week-old puppies to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra patience, love, and gentle care. I know firsthand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup enjoys an energetic walk, a leisurely sniff around the neighborhood, or just spending time with someone who truly enjoys their company, I’ll make sure they receive the same love, attention, and respect that I give my own dogs. I’m dependable, patient, and understand how important it is to know your pet is in caring hands. I’ll always prioritize your dog’s safety and happiness, and I’ll keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m joining Rover to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely love—spending time with dogs. It would be a privilege to care for your furry family member, and I look forward to meeting you both! I can’t wait to make some new four-legged friends! I’m currently unemployed, as I’ve just recently moved back to the area, which means I have a lot of availability and a flexible schedule. I’m joining Rover to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely love—spending time with dogs. It would be a privilege to care for your furry family member, and I look forward to meeting you both! I would love to care for your fur baby in your home, take them for walks, and I’m also open to welcoming them into my home, where I have a fenced-in yard if team appropriate with my own animals.

About: I’m not just a sitter I’m your pet’s calm, cozy, reliable home‑away‑from‑home. I specialize in creating a soft, stress‑free environment where pets feel safe, loved, and understood. I communicate clearly, respect your routines, and treat every animal like family. Your pet gets comfort, consistency, and genuine care—not just supervision. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life as a cat mom. Every day includes feeding, fresh water, litter care, enrichment, and calm bonding time — so adding your pet into my routine feels seamless. I’m used to managing structured play sessions, keeping environments clean, and maintaining consistent routines. Weekly, I plan enrichment activities, rotate toys, and make time for extra grooming or deep cleaning. In my client’s home, I follow your pet’s routines exactly to keep their environment familiar, comfortable, and stress‑free. I provide attentive care—feeding, walks or playtime, litter or potty upkeep, and gentle companionship—while keeping your space tidy and your pet feeling completely secure.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was really young, but usually only my own. I love dogs a lot and that is usually reciprocated. A lot of friends and family call me a dog whisperer. I love to sit outside and play with my dogs in my free time. I’m also great with cleaning up houses and environments. I’m currently on summer break from high school and will be going into college in the fall. I am currently free most often the time and can check in on pets whenever it’s wanted. I plan to treat any pet in your home with the care and love that I treat my own with. I will feed them at the appropriate time, play with them, and walk them if permitted.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for many years and have had pets my entire life. I currently have three dogs of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet—they’re family. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and getting to know their unique personalities. Whether your dog is energetic and playful, shy, or more laid-back, I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I stick closely to your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. My home has a fenced yard for safe, supervised playtime and plenty of exercise. I also have three friendly dogs who are used to being around others. I always take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable, and I can separate dogs if needed so they have their own space. While you’re away, I’ll treat your dog like one of my own—giving them lots of attention, care, and affection. I send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, loved, and in good hands. My goal is simple: a happy, well-cared-for dog and a stress-free experience for you. My schedule is flexible, so I’m able to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available during the week and weekends, and your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a fenced yard for safe, supervised playtime and follow each dog’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, and any medications.

I have two guinea pigs of my own and as delicate animals they require a lot of intense care, attention, and love which is how I see pets more as kids than animals. In my care they will not only be well taken care of but happy as well. I have no other pets so any pets are welcomed for boarding and sitting. I have open availability and am willing to go above and beyond for your pet. Id be happy to tell you more if you have any questions and I will try my best to fulfill any special request or care needed for the pet if needed.

Also I’m available before 6 AM in the mornings then I can go straight after I get out at 1 PM Monday-Friday. I can’t really answer this question because every pet is different based off of feeding schedules, exercise, medication, making sure they’re not going to hurt themselves, lastly making sure they’re comfortable.

I will say, I was a bit intimidated by leaving him with a pit bull there, but upon meeting the pit bull he was the sweetest big dog ever. My worries immediately vanished! There were a couple other dogs there, so that was nice. There was one dog a bit too interested in my little guy, so I didn’t want to leave until he calmed down. Samantha never made me feel rushed to leave or weird. She was super patient and asking me if I wanted the dogs split up, or inside or outside. I really thought that said a lot about the person I was leaving our baby with and I really liked that. I say all that to say, you can’t always control how dogs will interact with each other, but you can control how you react to them and Samantha was very calm, kind and friendly. She never looked overwhelmed or nervous. She was a bit embarrassed I think because of the initial behavior of this other dog she was caring for, but I understood that wasn’t a reflection of her care. We left out little guy there 3 days and she communicated through the day with updates, sent photos and even went the extra step of boiling and egg to mix it with my dogs food since we do that for him at home too. I’m thankful we found someone to watch our guy for when we need it! Highly recommend! 10 out of 10!

About: I have taken care of dogs for over 10 years. Overseas during covid that was my main job and I had over 25 clients. I can help with medications given, dog walks, dog check in or do in home boarding. I do live a short walk from a park, so can also do playtime and walks at the park as well! I am available for drop ins visits, long or short walks or boarding in my home. If you are Active Duty, going TDY, etc. Or just a fur parent with no help, please let me know ahead of time so I can help you the best I can! I have a fenced in back yard with a lot of space. I have 3 senior dogs that love other dogs, but I also have plenty of space to keep dogs separated if needed. I also live walking distance from my local park. Smoke free home.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Armonee. My dogs first time with a boarder and she could not have made things easier for him and me. Her communication is top tier with regular texts, photos and concerns. She is caring, gentle and tailors her approach to fit the animals needs, like she did with my special needs senior dog. She treats pets like they are her own and it is obvious from the moment you meet her. I trusted her completely and will be rebooking with her in the future. Highly, highly recommend if you are looking for a safe and loving place for your pet. My dog came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for.

I could not have asked for a better dog sitter! From the very beginning, Shanae was professional, dependable, and incredibly caring with my dog. It was clear that she truly loves animals and treats them like family. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My dog was happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. Shanae went above and beyond to make sure all routines, feeding schedules, walks, and playtime were handled perfectly. When I returned home, it was obvious that my dog had been loved and cared for exceptionally well. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate dog sitter. I will absolutely be using her again in the future! Thanks again Shanae!

Meagan was awesome! Especially with a last minute booking, she was available for meet and greet prior and asked and answered any questions with ease. Throughout the stay her communications were excellent and she sent great pictures. We didn’t worry on our trip because we knew Lyra was in great hands! We knew Lyra was treated as family while in her stay! Would 100 percent book her again!

Aurelie and her family went above and beyond caring for our dog. They are clearly dedicated as a whole family and I have no doubt my dog had a fun, active and loving stay. Will definitely be booking again!

Kathleen took exceptional care of my fur baby this past weekend. She helped my boy acclimate with her two fur babies and sent me a lot of pictures of them playing together. Kathleen had the presence of mind to ask if fireworks bother him (NYE weekend) and gave him the medication we provided to aid Oliver a little. I will book with Kathleen again, it was a very positive first time experience with Rover.

Lisa has been watching my dog for over a year and a half now, and she is truly an amazing Rover. When I first rescued my dog, she was very timid, shy around other animals, and didn’t play much. Since being in Lisa’s care, she’s grown so much — now she’s able to be around other dogs and even play with them! While she can still get a little timid at times, Lisa always makes her feel safe and comfortable. Every time I travel, I have complete peace of mind knowing my dog is in the best hands. Lisa consistently checks in with me, sends photos, and updates me on how things are going. She’s not only reliable, but also genuinely kind and caring. I highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and professional pet sitter. She’s truly a wonderful person, and I’m so grateful to have her caring for my girl while I’m away.
