About: Hi, I’m Taylah! 🐾 I’ve cared for dogs since I was 12, helping raise Great Danes, a Husky, and puppies. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and love giving them plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and care. I’m available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and doggy day care. I also welcome holiday bookings—just send me a message! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I go on walks every day, so bringing a furry friend along is always a joy, not a task. Whether it’s morning strolls or evening wind-downs, I’m already active and outdoors, which makes it easy to give your dog the exercise and attention they need. My flexible schedule allows me to be fully present and responsive to their needs—whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just a little extra love throughout the day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat them like family. In my home, dogs have a safe, clean, and calm space to relax, with plenty of room to play and nap. I follow their regular routines—feeding schedules, walk times, and any special instructions—to make the transition smooth and stress-free. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect the space and the pet’s comfort zone. I keep things consistent by sticking to your pet’s usual routine, offering companionship, regular potty breaks, and lots of love and attention. I keep you updated with messages and photos so you know your pet is happy, safe, and in good hands. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure, loved, and well-cared for—whether they’re in my home or their own.
“This was the second stay Leo had with Jim. With all the frequent updates and communication, we knew exactly what was going on with our little boy in JIm's sweet home. We felt so lucky to have found a home outside of the home for our little boy. We will definitely book another stay with Jim.”
About: Looking for someone who will love your pet almost as much as you do? That’s me! I’ve spent years caring for pets for family, friends, and neighbors, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s a playful puppy, or a senior dog who needs extra patience, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I provide reliable care, regular updates, plenty of playtime, and lots of affection. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is safe, loved, and having a great time. Bonus: I give award🏆winning belly rubs and am an expert treat distributor. I work a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I’m available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, and I do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Whether your pet needs a quick potty break, a long walk, playtime, or extra attention while you’re away, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special requests you may have. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and needs so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I provide regular updates, photos, and communication for peace of mind. Whether caring for your pet in your home or mine, you can trust that they’ll receive plenty of love, attention, belly rubs, and personalized care. I truly love them as if they were part of my own family. I also specialize in belly rubs, treat distribution, and convincing shy pets that Aunty Wendy will protect and care for them.
“Just perfect. Michelle has a lovely home with a nice park and lake area in the backyard for the dogs to enjoy. Very safe area well away from roads. Michelle communicated very well, sent photos and updates, and was completely flexible with drop off and pickup times. Someone was home with my pup all the time and Zoey really seemed to love her stay with Michelle. Highly recommended.”
“The boarding went very smoothly! Communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and even with my late drop-off (completely my fault), everything was handled with patience and professionalism. I felt confident my two little rascals were in great hands!”
“Sabine was so wonderful! She was ultra communicative leading up to hosting Lady and throughout Lady's entire stay. Sabine sent us tons of updates and photos, which as obsessed dog parents we absolutely love!! We would 100% recommend using Sabine to care for your fur baby, we would definitely use her again when we're in the area!”
“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Michael and his girlfriend were absolute lifesavers this weekend! They took such incredible care of my dog, Mr. Bear, and went above and beyond to make him feel at home. From thoughtful updates to plenty of outdoor time, they treated him like family — which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Bear can be a little picky (and has some specific dietary needs), but they followed every instruction with care and patience. When I picked him up, he was calm, happy, and clearly well-loved — which says everything. You can truly tell these two are dog people through and through. I would 1000% book with them again and recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving care for their pup. Thank you both so much for taking such good care of my big guy! 🐾💙”
“Tracey was so wonderful and accommodating when our flight was delayed getting home and we had to push back our pick up time! We can tell our doggo was well taken care of and had a blast playing with the other dogs. Highly recommend Tracey!”
“Dayana and her family are wonderful sitter’s! They treat Bella like family and have given her the nickname “Queen Bella”’. Communication is great - I receive morning and evening updates with pictures and videos. I recommend Dayana/Sonia 100% and will be using them as my dog sitters going forward.”
“Jordan and his family was amazing with Monty. He was very quick in his responses with continous updates while taking care of my dog. His home provided the perfect space for Monty to roam and be free. Will definitely use again.”
“Ana was great with my Gimli! I booked her because of her high ratings and good reviews, and let me tell you, she lives up to her 5-star reviews! She sent daily pictures and videos of my sweetheart, and I never once worried about him. Its clear Ana loves the dogs she cares for, and goes above and beyond to ensure theyre comfortable and thriving. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future because I know my little guy will be in the best hands ever!”
“As always Seyla takes such great care of Jet as if Jet was his own and even accommodated me with keeping Jet an extra week last minute. Extremely appreciative of Everything you do from pictures to videos, summaries of their day and even the meals for Jet. Thank you so much.”

About: I’m back on Rover for summer break 2026. I’ve taken care of cats and dogs (and fish) since I was a teenager, and had a beloved dog for 13 years who passed away in 2023. I have since adopted a wild little puppy, which is why I can’t do overnights anymore. If drop-ins work for you instead, contact me for a flat daily rate instead of paying for each drop-in. I have volunteered at the humane society and often watch my friends’ pets when they go out of town. I also took care of my dog through multiple knees surgeries and two different types of cancer. I love being able to take care of animals in their own homes, where they feel most comfortable and know their families will be back soon. As a high school counselor, I’m available for drop-ins, walks, crate breaks, and playtime all summer long. If you have a dog or cat who needs a crate break during the day or you just want to have some company or exercise before you get home from work, I’m here for that. I will love on your pets and give them as much attention, play, walks, cuddles, and fun as they want! If your pet is more of a recluse, I can be there for company and to take care of them, while fully respecting their personality. I will follow your directions specifically, because I know how important it is to maintain diet, house rules, meal schedules, bathroom routines, and medication times for a pet’s health and well-being. I prefer to watch pets in their homes because after having a dog, I understand how much less stress it is for them. I’ll take daily pictures (at least) and ask what time of day is best for you to receive them (especially if you’re in a different time zone). I’m happy to watch pets recovering from surgery too, as long as there are clear instructions. This was a challenge I experienced when my dog had surgery and I had to go to work, so I’d be happy to fill that need.
“They were amazing!! Our cats were well cared for, and we received several photos and videos of our cats :) We would heavily recommend that you go with Amanda for all your pet sitting needs!!”
“Stephanie was out of this world amazing. This is the longest I left our shy little kitty & I was super nervous. I asked for frequent updates & Stephanie absolutely delivered. She got in lots of play time, snuggles & treats but made sure to not force anything on our girl. Stephanie was so understanding, patient and kind and really helped us to be able to relax on our vacation. I couldn’t be happier or more grateful we booked her. Thanks Stephanie!”
About: Used to walk multiple dogs regularly, have house sitted with multiple animals in the house. Have worked with large dogs over 100lbs to smaller dogs. I would like to disclose I walk with my veteran husband due to my PTSD sorry for any inconvenience. I love speaking to all furry friends sweetly and lovingly. I love animals of all ages, sizes and breeds. Currently free most of the time as a stay at home wife and mother. Weather depending. Can make accommodations if the weather isn't ideal. Please just contact me to discuss alternate options during bad weather. I will provide the highest level of safety and care when I'm with your animals. I always make sure an environment is safe and clear before entering. I treat all animals as if they were my own, I'm very particular on how animals are treated and do my upmost to make your animals feel as loved as you make them feel.
“Stefanie was just wonderful with our cat Millie. She sent a picture to us every day which was very comforting. It was so nice to be on vacation and not have any concerns about whether or not our cat was being cared for. We would absolutely use her services again.”
About: I have taken care of many different dogs in my neighborhood for over 5 years. I have experience with small, medium, and large dogs, as well as multiple dogs at a time.

I make sure that dogs in my care are given at least two walks a day, as well as exercise and stimulation throughout the day. I also adapt my care to each dog's needs and owner requests.
“Radyah was responsive, communicative, and flexible when I needed a last minute cat sitter due to a family emergency. She took amazing care of my sweet girl Faith while I was away! Thank you so much! 10/10”
About: I have 15 years of experience caring for all kinds of cats shy, playful, rescued, and senior. I love creating a safe and calm environment for them. I make sure they eat well, get companionship, enjoy playtime, and always feel cared for. I’m attentive to any signs of stress or discomfort, and I treat every cat as part of the family.
“Finding Melissa and having her help care for and pamper Sky during these days has been a true blessing. Both my cat Sky and my family clicked with her immediately. Melissa is incredibly loving and empathetic, as well as helpful and proactive. She kept us posted on everything. We are so grateful for her excellent support. The fact that she is bilingual adds even more value to her work. Thank you so much, Melissa! 🙏🏼”

About: I've always been a natural caregiver. I've had pets since I was born, took care of my grandmother in her final years, and I take care of patients of all ages everyday as a healthcare worker. My goal is always to look out for the underdog (pun intended). I work at a dental clinic nearby with nights, weekends, and every other Friday off. My 15 minute commute allows me to pop home if I need to let our pup out. I have plenty of time before and after work for walks and snuggles too! I have a fenced in backyard, a super laid back 9 year old lab mix, and two chill cats who pretty much keep to themselves. We have plenty of extra space for crating if need be! And if for some reason your furry friend needs and entirely secluded area, we can provide that as well.
About: I’ve taken care of my pets and friends’ pets for the last few years whenever they have needed it. Mainly walking, drop in visits, and occasional pet sitting. I love playing with pets if they are playful! I currently work from home so it’s fairly easy for me to take my lunch break or mornings to give some extra attention to your pets. I am not able to currently care for pets in my own home, however I’ll be able to tend to your pets in your home however you’d like. I have experience in dog, cat, and bird care so I’ll be able to adjust to your pets needs.

“My dog had a wonderful time with Erin and Guiness! He's apprehensive when meeting new dogs and new people, and Erin was wonderful about being patient with him and letting him warm up to her and to Guiness in his own time. Erin sent lots of photos so I could see how he was doing. I will definitely be choosing Erin for my future dog care needs!”

“Mila was outstanding! My dog was recently brought home from a shelter and Mila was not only kind and understanding but my dog didn't even want to leave her when it was time to come home.

“I had the pleasure of having Lilly, walk my Dog Simon 3-4xs a week for 2 months. She was always punctual on timing and if she was ever running behind she would make sure to give a notice. Most importantly I enjoyed seeing Simòn happy upon her arrival, tail wagging through my Furbo Dog camera, she always greeted him with scratches and made sure to give him a treat before leaving. I appreciated the photos during the walks around the neighborhood or if Simòn was being lazy instead of ending the walk she would sit outside with him while he sun bathed giving him scratches. Lilly thank you so much for helping me out during this time!”

Your dog will be cared for in a safe, loving home with a fully fenced backyard—perfect for supervised outdoor time and play. I also have a friendly 3-year-old pup who loves to play and socialize, making it a great environment for dogs who enjoy companionship. Inside, dogs are treated like family, with plenty of attention, comfort, and a calm, structured environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s needs, whether they prefer playtime, relaxation, or a mix of both.
About: My spouse and I have been taking care of our family pets and pet-sitting for neighbors since we were kids! I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets from fish to rodents to cats to corgis to german shepherds and more! Currently, we are in the process of training a service dog and raising our cat mandy. When my wife was in high school, they worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility and learned a lot about pet care there. We are excited to meet and take care of your fur babies! I currently work from home so we are able to take care of your pets whenever they need throughout the day! We have a dog of our own, so they can have a playmate and we have a big yard for them to run around in. At our home, we have a large fenced in yard for pups to play, as well as lots of toys and treats. At your home, we will be sure to follow any and all instructions you provide for taking care of your pet as well as your home!
About: Hiyaa! I am here to be your trustworthy fur baby caregiver! I grew up with 2 cats and 4 rabbits. Currently, I have my fur son Pooffy with me and I am available to pet sitting/drop in visit to your fur babies too! I have been volunteering with several animal welfare organization both in the USA and overseas. For a paw-some service, send me a message and we can go from there! Don't forget to ask the promo code if you are a first time service taker! See you then! I am working full time on Rover currently so I can play, take care and spend time with your fur baby anytime you require! 😌 In client's home, the care depends on how the client wants me to care for their fur babies. Usually, I go with their rule book. While pet sitting at my home, I live in a condo so I let them feel comfortable and homely. Regular food supply and cleaning is the main thing I focus on. Also, prefer playing or cuddle as well if they like that!

“My dog Batman had a wonderful stay with Vanessa and Geoffrey. They have a great set up and were very attentive and loving towards my dog. I would definitely recommend them to anyone and will be booking again in the future!”
“Camila was awesome! Despite my travel plans adjusting last minute she was extremely accommodating and very communicative throughout the stay. Grateful for her passion and professionalism.”
“This was the second stay Leo had with Jim. With all the frequent updates and communication, we knew exactly what was going on with our little boy in JIm's sweet home. We felt so lucky to have found a home outside of the home for our little boy. We will definitely book another stay with Jim.”

“Just perfect. Michelle has a lovely home with a nice park and lake area in the backyard for the dogs to enjoy. Very safe area well away from roads. Michelle communicated very well, sent photos and updates, and was completely flexible with drop off and pickup times. Someone was home with my pup all the time and Zoey really seemed to love her stay with Michelle. Highly recommended.”
“The boarding went very smoothly! Communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and even with my late drop-off (completely my fault), everything was handled with patience and professionalism. I felt confident my two little rascals were in great hands!”
“🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Michael and his girlfriend were absolute lifesavers this weekend! They took such incredible care of my dog, Mr. Bear, and went above and beyond to make him feel at home. From thoughtful updates to plenty of outdoor time, they treated him like family — which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Bear can be a little picky (and has some specific dietary needs), but they followed every instruction with care and patience. When I picked him up, he was calm, happy, and clearly well-loved — which says everything. You can truly tell these two are dog people through and through. I would 1000% book with them again and recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving care for their pup. Thank you both so much for taking such good care of my big guy! 🐾💙”
“Tracey was so wonderful and accommodating when our flight was delayed getting home and we had to push back our pick up time! We can tell our doggo was well taken care of and had a blast playing with the other dogs. Highly recommend Tracey!”
“Jordan and his family was amazing with Monty. He was very quick in his responses with continous updates while taking care of my dog. His home provided the perfect space for Monty to roam and be free. Will definitely use again.”
“Ana was great with my Gimli! I booked her because of her high ratings and good reviews, and let me tell you, she lives up to her 5-star reviews! She sent daily pictures and videos of my sweetheart, and I never once worried about him. Its clear Ana loves the dogs she cares for, and goes above and beyond to ensure theyre comfortable and thriving. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future because I know my little guy will be in the best hands ever!”
“As always Seyla takes such great care of Jet as if Jet was his own and even accommodated me with keeping Jet an extra week last minute. Extremely appreciative of Everything you do from pictures to videos, summaries of their day and even the meals for Jet. Thank you so much.”
“This is our furry wiggle butts 3rd stay with Jessie. They get so excited when we turn down her street its almost as if we could just let them out of the car and they would find her.”
“We always try to book Traci when we’re leaving town. She is conscientious, flexible, and cheerful, and provides frequent updates with photos. We have no worries at all when we leave our pups with Traci. Our dogs love her, and she seems to really love them, too!”
“So grateful to have found Mickey to watch my dog while I am away. He sent me pictures and/or videos each day to show me how he was doing and how much fun he was having, which really took the stress out of leaving him behind. He had his own vacation while I was gone. Will definitely book with Mickey again.”
“Abby and her family were wonderful care givers of our elderly pets. Our buddies were in their care for more than a week and I can tell they were able to stick to the feeding routine. Our pets comeback in good shape. Thanks Abby and family!”
