Lauryn and her family are such sweet people and Finn loved being with him. He got all the attention he needed and he came home calm I could tell he was comfortable with his caretakers. Their home was very clean and dog friendly. Lauryn was very communicative and I was assured through meaningful pics and texts that Finn was just fine and enjoying his stay. I am so grateful to have found her. Thank you so much for making our boarding experience a great success.

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!

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.

Brittany was able to answer many questions and provide a meet and greet prior to watching Bean. I had already met with 5 other sitters who weren't the right fit. Brittany came prepared to also ask me questions to Better understand how to best care for Bean. Lima Bean had a great stay even with thunderstorms present which causes her the most anxiety. She was spoiled and even came home with a cute Bandana. Brittany understood how important it was for me to receive multiple updates a day that encompassed pictures. This eased my mind that she was doing well. I would definitely recommend Brittany due to her pet knowledge and friendly personality.

We always receive thoughtful updates, and Jaxon comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything.

We left our doodles with Lisa for 4 days. They have never been away from me for that long before and although I was incredibly sad I knew they were in great hands with her. She sent me daily pics and texts to keep me updated. Lisa has a kind soul that you can feel as soon as you meet her. I will no doubt leave my loves with her again. I recommend her highly.

Melody and Matthew provided EXCELLENT care for our fur babies during our vacation! Our Basset Hound needed emergency treatment while we were away (no fault of Melody or Matthew) and Melody went above and beyond to obtain treatment, update us regularly, make sure our fur baby received immediate care and provided TLC to our boy afterward. He is home safe and sound and is good as new now. She sent photos and updates regularly for both of our pups and share cute, funny stories of both of their antics. I can't give enough stars for the care she gave our pups! This was our first time using Rover and we selected Melody because of her excellent reviews. I will tell you to BELEIVE WHAT YOU READ! Her many years of experience with pets shines brightly. We will definitely use her again!

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!

Oh my gosh! My boy Neeko had THE BEST time!!!! Cristen was great at sharing photos and videos during his 2 night weekend visit. Her communication is so good. Micheal playing out in the yard with him throwing the ball. The whole family gave Neeko lots of love as if he were their own. Once I picked Neeko up and got him home, he slept the rest of the day. He was completely worn out!! If he were a kid, I think he would be talking about his sleepover for days!!! Lol. I could not have found a more perfect family to love my baby. 🥰

Our dogs loved their stay with Janel! They looked so so happy throughout the entire 10 days. Our dogs had not stayed at a doggy day care/boarding place with multiple dogs before so we were a little nervous but they did amazing! They made new friends and it helped socialize them even more. We will for sure use Janel next time we need a sitter, she was awesome with updates and pictures. Couldn’t be happier, and the dogs agree!

Forest’s stay with Megan had him living his best life. He was right at home with her family and able to play with other dogs staying for day care. Her constant updates and photos eliminated any worries while I was away. I would book again so that Forest is in the best hands during my future travels.

I can’t recommend Kaylan enough! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond, not just checking the boxes, but truly caring for my animals like they were her own. Her updates were the perfect mix of hilarious and helpful (seriously, I looked forward to them like a mini comedy show), and they gave me total peace of mind while I was away. The real magic? My skittish barn cat, who usually acts like humans are a myth, actually walked past her like she belonged there. That’s a miracle in itself and says everything about her energy and patience. She clearly has a genuine knack for animals, even the tough cookies. If you’re looking for someone who’s not only responsible but has a true gift with animals (and a great sense of humor), Kaylan is the one!

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: Animals have always been a constant part of my life. I grew up in a home where there were always dogs and cats around, caring for them wasn’t just a responsibility, it was part of daily life. Over the years, I have personally raised and cared for three dogs of my own, each with different personalities and needs, which taught me patience, structure, and how to connect with animals on an individual level. Most recently, I adopted another dog into the family, adding even more joy and playful to the house. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I have experienced it all training, playtime, feeding routines, crate care, walks, and of course, lots of cuddles. Whether your pet is shy or social, active or relaxed, we understand how to make them feel safe, loved, and at home. I have a partner who has been pet sitting for her friends and co-workers last 4 years. I work at shipyard, but my work is pretty flexible that I can check out our dogs or any other pet frequently to make sure they receive enough attention love and most importantly care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In my home, I provide a calm and secure environment where dogs can relax and be themselves. I have a fully fenced big yard for safe outdoor play, and I supervise all interactions to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible — from feeding schedules to crate preferences and bedtime habits — so they feel right at home. I never use harsh corrections; instead, I rely on positive reinforcement, patience, and gentle guidance. I also keep my home clean, pet-proofed, and free of anything unsafe. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, we make sure they always feel safe, respect. I will keep sending regular updates and pictures or videos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands

So if there are any dietary restrictions, medications or specific training that needs to be inforced I am your gal.

It is my main goal that your four-legged family member has the best time at my house and that you are as carefree as possible. My goal is to always remain as flexible as possible and to work around the schedules of my pet families! I have structured my lifestyle to remain as flexible as possible. I have invested time and care into my home and pet to make it a safe and welcoming environment at all times. I always follow the needs and requirements of my pet families to ensure continuity of care.

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’ve been lucky enough to share my life with dogs for over 30 years. From small lap pups to large, energetic breeds, I’ve cared for them all. Dogs have always been a part of my family, and right now I share my home with my sweet 8 year-old Shih Tzu, who keeps me laughing and loves making new friends. I’m patient, gentle, and completely committed to giving every dog I meet the same level of love, safety, and attention I give my own. I’m currently retired and am available most days to care for your dog or cat. I am willing to work with you on times if needed. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment that matches each pet’s normal routine and energy level. I follow feeding schedules, walking times, and any special instructions exactly as given.

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.

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 am going to treat your dog like my own if not better. I have two dogs Bailey and Princess who were rescue dogs. Bailey was mean and and could not wear a collar. Princess was malnurished and skin issues. Now both dogs are heathly, friendly. It amazes me how much they have grown. They would love guests and enjoy play time. All i ask is that u tell me your babies schedule and likes and dislikes. I have fenced yard where your dogs can run around play freely and I take dogs to parks and trails. Plenty of treats, and playtime, and love. If you like i can come to your home so your fur babies can feel more comfortable. Home away from home is how it should be. I do pet sit/ Rover on a part-time basis that's why my rates are lower than most.

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!

Omaira and Isaac were great sitters. I believe they really did care for our pup like we would have. They were helpful and accommodating and I would book with them again.

I can officially say King has a home away from home. I received pictures and updates while I went away for the weekend. Vania and Janiya took care of my precious cargo as if he was theirs. I’ll definitely book again. ??

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.

Brittany was able to answer many questions and provide a meet and greet prior to watching Bean. I had already met with 5 other sitters who weren't the right fit. Brittany came prepared to also ask me questions to Better understand how to best care for Bean. Lima Bean had a great stay even with thunderstorms present which causes her the most anxiety. She was spoiled and even came home with a cute Bandana. Brittany understood how important it was for me to receive multiple updates a day that encompassed pictures. This eased my mind that she was doing well. I would definitely recommend Brittany due to her pet knowledge and friendly personality.

Three visits in, and Mrs. Crystal continues to exceed our expectations. She’s attentive, consistent, and truly understands Jaxon’s needs. We always receive thoughtful updates, and Jaxon comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. It gives us real peace of mind knowing he’s with her on a staycation lol😃 So grateful we found her on Rover, highly recommend! Thank you ❤️

We left our doodles with Lisa for 4 days. They have never been away from me for that long before and although I was incredibly sad I knew they were in great hands with her. She sent me daily pics and texts to keep me updated. Lisa has a kind soul that you can feel as soon as you meet her. I will no doubt leave my loves with her again. I recommend her highly.

Melody and Matthew provided EXCELLENT care for our fur babies during our vacation! Our Basset Hound needed emergency treatment while we were away (no fault of Melody or Matthew) and Melody went above and beyond to obtain treatment, update us regularly, make sure our fur baby received immediate care and provided TLC to our boy afterward. He is home safe and sound and is good as new now. She sent photos and updates regularly for both of our pups and share cute, funny stories of both of their antics. I can't give enough stars for the care she gave our pups! This was our first time using Rover and we selected Melody because of her excellent reviews. I will tell you to BELEIVE WHAT YOU READ! Her many years of experience with pets shines brightly. We will definitely use her again!

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!

Oh my gosh! My boy Neeko had THE BEST time!!!! Cristen was great at sharing photos and videos during his 2 night weekend visit. Her communication is so good. Micheal playing out in the yard with him throwing the ball. The whole family gave Neeko lots of love as if he were their own. Once I picked Neeko up and got him home, he slept the rest of the day. He was completely worn out!! If he were a kid, I think he would be talking about his sleepover for days!!! Lol. I could not have found a more perfect family to love my baby. 🥰

Our dogs loved their stay with Janel! They looked so so happy throughout the entire 10 days. Our dogs had not stayed at a doggy day care/boarding place with multiple dogs before so we were a little nervous but they did amazing! They made new friends and it helped socialize them even more. We will for sure use Janel next time we need a sitter, she was awesome with updates and pictures. Couldn’t be happier, and the dogs agree!

Forest’s stay with Megan had him living his best life. He was right at home with her family and able to play with other dogs staying for day care. Her constant updates and photos eliminated any worries while I was away. I would book again so that Forest is in the best hands during my future travels.
