“Wow Alexa and her family go above and beyond in making sure your fur baby is well taken care of, and that you are thoroughly communicated with every step of the way. Truly, she is an exceptional sitter, and Stella came home well-rested, comfortable, and anxiety free (rare for her!!!). Expectations entirely exceeded!! Thank you!!”
“Amazing! I booked a last minute stay over Fourth of July weekend and Mana was so accommodating. She squeezed in a pre stay introduction for the dogs, then took amazing care of Obi over the three days. I got so many photos (and a video) and she even refilled my poop bag dispenser from her own stash when ours ran out and sent obi home with a little extra treat. Outstanding sitter, would book again without hesitation.”
“He was so kind and took wonderful care of my dog! Made sure everything was talked through before I left him overnight, I had no doubt my dog was going to be taken good care of.”
“Isabella was so so great with our dog, Benji! She kept us updated on how he was each day and really went the extra mile with making sure Benji was comfortable. Really appreciate the great care and I wouldn’t think twice about leaving my dog with her again ! ❤️”
“Thank you Jessica for another great weekend with Carl. We always feel so relaxed leaving him with you, we know he is going to get all the best attention, walks and care. Excellent communication and wonderful photos as always. Thanks again!”
“My dog really enjoys his stay with Yingqi. Yingqi took good care of Domo. She helped us walk Domo and shared lots of cute photos with us. She is also very responsive with questions and tried her best to adapt to our schedules. She even helped Domo clip his nail and have Domo celebrate the birthday together with her puppies. I would definitely recommend Yingqi to all dog parents who are looking for caring and responsible caregivers!”
“Lucy loved her time with Casey and Ron. She got tons of love and activity and came back home super happy. Now she pulls towards their house when we go for walks. 10/10 would use again.”
“Jiani provided attentive care for my cat while we were away for a week. My cat, Todie, stayed with Jiani at her place, and Todie is usually very shy and nervous in new places. With frequent photo updates from Jiani, I was able to tell that Todie grew comfortable in her care rather quickly, and it relieved much stress on my end. Jiani was very flexible with picking up Todie and dropping her back off, too, which made planning easy for me! I will absolutely rebook with Jiani in the future!”
“Schooner had a great time at Kathryn and Mark’s home. They communicated very well and sent a lot of photos and updates. They handled Schooners puppy energy very well. We highly recommend Kathryn and Mark to watch your pup!”
“Ellie was a fantastic host to our husky Pepper. She is extremely attentive and made sure that Pepper got enough daily exercise and also plenty of snuggles during their downtime. We love that Pepper gets along so well with Ellie’s sweet dog Bear. Overall our dog had a great time and would absolutely book with Ellie in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Felix was an incredible dog-sitter! Shared lots of photos and videos, plus humorous 2x daily summaries of our quirky dog’s adventures, leaving me confident our Pug was having fun, well loved and cared for! Our dog got along great with Felix and his Boxer! Felix provided prompt and thorough feedback. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”
“Jerica and Nori were amazing! Nori was playful and accommodating with a new dog on his turf and he and Toby played so well together! I got lots of photos and updates from Jerica during Toby’s stay and it was clear Toby had a great time and was well cared for. Highly recommend Jerica! We will re-book in a heartbeat!”
“Max loved his stay with Lorena! He was actually bummed to come home. He got taken for lots of walks and we got daily pics of all the fun he was having. Will definitely book again soon.”
“It is always difficult for me to find someone to watch my dog bc she is elderly and has some health issues. Cathleen was amazing and made me feel completely at ease with frequent status updates with photos. Will definitely book with her again if I need someone to watch my girl!”
“Carolyn loves dogs and took great care of ours, giving me pictures and descriptions of their outings. If anything, I think she spoiled our Springer Spaniel as much as we do—when I picked up our dog, he calmly greeted me at the door as if I hadn’t left him for two nights! Highly recommend Carolyn.”
“Ying was a fantastic sitter for our furry boy! She sent lots of updates with photos and it looks like he had tons of outdoor time exploring the neighborhood and Green Lake. Ying was very easy to communicate with and seemed to really care a lot about making our boy comfortable and welcome. We will definitely look to Ying again when we need a sitter in the future. Highly recommend her!”
“I cannot recommend Michelle enough! Leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful, but from the very first message I felt completely at ease. Communication was excellent, I got regular updates and photos, and it was so clear that Tika was happy, safe, and cared for which is truly all I could ask for. She came home relaxed and content, which tells me everything I need to know about the love and attention she received. If you’re a pet parent looking for peace of mind, Michelle is exactly who you want to trust with your pup! 100% recommend!!”
“My dog received such great care. Kelly, was extremely flexible when I added an extra night stay at the last minute. Got regular photos and updates. Thanks! Kelly and Karen!”
“Yoshimi had a great time with Cheryl. She was very nice, sent pictures, was very knowledgeable about animals. I would definitely ask her to board him again.”

About: I have a deep love for my cats, having raised them with care and affection for over 10 years. My priority has always been to ensure they are well-fed and healthy. I take great care in administering their medication when needed, and I believe it's important for them to get some exercise each day, as long as they're up for it. Their happiness and well-being mean the world to me.
“Annabelle is a life-saver! When a super last-minute emergency came up and I needed a safe place for my cat to stay, Annabelle was able to arrange a call with me right away to get everything sorted for a same-day drop off. She took great care of my cat over two days and provided regular detailed updates and photos. It was such a relief to know that my cat was in good hands!”

“Jiani took great care of our two cats over a weekend, and she shared photos of them eating and playing. Cats were happy and healthy when we returned. While we are okay with people wearing shoes in our house, I appreciated that Jiani took off her shoes when we did the meet-n-greet with the cats”
“Shannon has taken care of my cat several times when I was on vacation and has always been so reliable and flexible. She immediately made friends with my very shy cat, and kept in close touch while I was away. I would book her to take care of my cat again in a second!”
“Clive was fantastic with my cat, making sure she was well fed and playing with her so she wouldn't be lonely. He is thorough, communicative, and a fun person to chat with.”
“Caleb was a fantastic cat sitter! He was reliable and communicative. He sent us daily updates with pictures and most importantly, Caleb gave us peace of mind knowing our cat was in good hands. We'll definitely be using Caleb again next time we need a sitter.”
“Margaret followed instructions well, gave my sweet elderly kitty some love, sent several pics each visit and even took out my compost and watered my patio plants (I gave her $ for it;)). Recommend this young lady to anyone needing kitty care❤️🐈”
“Julie is such a wonderful sitter! she really cares about your animals and goes the extra mile to make sure that you and your pet are both comfortable! I highly recommend her ^_^”
“Allison watched my sweet, people-loving kitty for a week over the holidays. I was anxious to leave her, but I was reassured by the pics and updates Allison sent with every drop-in visit. When I got home I could tell she took excellent care of my cat. Luna did not seem stressed at all! I appreciate the care Allison took to make sure my cat’s routines were kept consistent, and the time spent giving her love and attention. My happy cat and the peace of mind is priceless. Thanks again Allison!!”

“Yufang took such great care of Taco! Her home is well set up for dog care — safe, clean, and comfortable. Taco got plenty of playtime, attention, and belly rubs, and came home happy and relaxed. I really appreciated all the pics and video.”

I’m available almost everyday since I don’t go to work. I spend most of my time with my pets at home so as well as your pets! I live in an apartment with a fenced yard. I have two friendly pups that will be your fur baby’s company .If your pet is shy I can leave a quiet space for her!
“Wonderful experience! My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable during her time with Margot. Communication was great, and I really appreciated the care and attention. I've already booked again! Highly recommend!”
“Michelle was fantastic! Our dogs felt completely comfortable with her, and she kept us updated throughout the day with messages and photos. We really appreciate the extra care - she even took them on a walk.”
“I brought TWO dogs to Chunli very last minute. I had my dog and my daughter's dog. Chunli was incredibly sweet to them. She took them on several long walks and my daughter's dog is a RELENTLESS player with balls and Chunli very patiently played with her for way longer than I would have! They each had different feeding instructions and different dog foods and she followed all the instructions to the letter. The dogs were picked up at the end of a long day happy and barely even noticing I was there. I would totally use Chunli again.”
“Felix is very organized and thorough. He's very thoughtful, knowledgeable and observant, I trust his conclusions on regarding how the dogs behaved. He's also very good about communicating.”
About: I have a variety of experience house, dog, and cat sitting for animals of all ages, and many with medical needs. I am personable and punctual, and have a very flexible day-to-day schedule and love to meet new pets! Open for short notice bookings! I work fully remotely, and so have a very flexible daily schedule, into which some pet time fits great. I have plenty of free time on a weekly basis for unique needs and timing. I have extensive experience pet sitting at client's homes, including overnight. I think caring for pets on their home turf is a great way to get to know them and provide enrichment and fun times!
About: I grew up surrounded by animals and have spent decades caring for all kinds of pets. I’m both a cat and dog person at heart, and today I’m happily ruled by my Mini Schnauzer, Blue, who rarely lets me out of his sight. Over the years I’ve cared for pets at every stage of life, from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors. Animal care has always been second nature to me, I bring patience, experience, and genuine love to every furry friend I look after. I"m currently taking a break from the 9-5, available to walk your pup or check in on your kitties with great flexibility if I am in town. I have a completely fenced yard if we are doing day care, and companion pup Blue to keep your dog company. Calm mellow house for those anxious pups who like quiet.
“Rocco had a great time with Mark for daycare - exploring and hanging out! Mark provided updates during the day and was excellent communicating beforehand to arrange things. We'll definitely book with Mark again. Thank you!!”
“we had a great experience with eric! He watched our two pups for daycare and was incredibly communicative throughout the day—sending lots of photo updates and checking in often. One of my dogs is usually very fearful of new people, but he was patient and kind, and she warmed up to him quickly. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We highly recommend eric !”
“Always a good day with Carmen! A full day at a dog daycare feels like sensory overload for my busy puppy. A full day of care with Carmen feels like Georgia is at a friends house with one on one care. Tons of updates and she comes home tired and happy.”
“We absolutely LOVED our time with Cheryl. She was so attentive to all of Millie’s needs and truly went above and beyond. She’s experienced, kind, reliable, and even spent time training Millie! We would definitely recommend her services and will be booking again.”
“Yan was fantastic! She sent me lots of photos and videos of my dog throughout the day and he had a great time at her house. She was flexible and communicative and I will definitely book again!”

“Samantha was a fantastic help with morning walks during our last vacation. She was so good with our older, special needs dogs and even our younger dog, who’s nervous around strangers, was eager to go on walks with her. Thank you for all the awesome TLC for our pack!”
About: Throughout my life, I have been fortunate to be surrounded by dogs, and their unwavering love has truly shaped who I am. Each experience I've had with these wonderful companions, from the gentle giant huskies to the tiny chihuahuas, has been deeply meaningful. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, as well as those with special needs, recognizing how vital it is to cater to their unique requirements with understanding and kindness. Moreover, I've had the privilege of house-sitting for friends and family, ensuring that their beloved pets receive all the love and attention they deserve while their owners are away. Caring for these furry friends has not only been a responsibility but a heartfelt joy. I have a flexible hybrid work schedule that allows me to work from home, which is great for spending time with your pet! I'm usually available on Mondays and Fridays, but I'm happy to adjust my schedule if you give me a heads-up. During lunchtime, I’d love to pop by and hang out with your furry friend. Plus, on weekends when I'm free, I'm more than willing to help out and provide some extra love and care for your companion! In my approach to pet care, I deeply value the unique daily routines of each pet. Understanding these routines is crucial for helping them feel secure and comfortable around me. I also make it a priority to learn their likes and dislikes, which allows me to communicate with them more effectively. As a result, pet owners can have peace of mind knowing that their beloved companions are in caring hands, even when they're away.
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life, so I am very well equipped in their care. I also have volunteered at an animal shelter where I received training on dog walking, pet socialization, and overall caretaking. I am a college student and looking for a part time job. Because of this I have a very open schedule and am willing to work during work hours (m-f 9-5). I will treat your pets as if they are my own while still respecting your specific instructions. I would love to be a friend to your pet while still keeping them safe and cared for!

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs, often helping friends by looking after their pups. I’m very patient and love spending time playing, cuddling, and making sure pets feel happy and safe. I provide a safe, loving, and structured environment for dogs who enjoy a calm but engaging stay. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities—from playful and social to more independent or sensitive pups. My goal is to provide not only reliable care but also a fun, loving environment where every dog feels like part of the family - I host up to 2 dogs at a time to ensure each pup gets personalized attention and care! - Daycare Services My daycare covers up to 8 hours per day. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks. For stays longer than 8 hours, an extended care fee applies. Stays longer than 10 hours are considered boarding and are charged at the full daily boarding rate. - My daily schedule allows me to spend a lot of time with the dogs. I usually go on regular walks and provide a mix of playtime and rest, depending on each dog’s energy level. I already have a small dog at home, so my space is set up to be pet-friendly with treats, toys, and supplies ready. Dogs in my care can enjoy a safe and comfortable environment, regular playtime, and plenty of love. I usually take the dogs out three times a day, making sure they get enough exercise and fresh air. If your pup enjoys socializing, they’ll also have the chance to play and keep company with my friendly small dog.
“Lynn is so professional, and so fantastic with my dog, Lily. So happy to have found her and I intend on using her services consistently for the foreseeable future!”
“Carley was great with Dior, I highly recommend her. I was out of town and usually take my little one. My grandparents were visiting and wanted him to stay. They were not able to walk him daily so I reached out to Carley. She was extremely patient with them as it takes them time to answer the door. Will be reaching out every time when needed.”
About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and have hands-on experience caring for them. Over the past year, I walked a Golden Retriever every day around Green Lake, giving me experience with consistent exercise routines, leash handling, and understanding a dog's needs. I also volunteered for a long time at Ginger's Pet Rescue, where I worked with dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I'm patient, dependable, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk, extra attention, or a calm, caring companion, I'm committed to making them feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I recently graduated from college, so I have a relaxed and flexible schedule this summer. That gives me plenty of time to provide walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and lots of attention. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I always follow each pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and safe. In a client's home, I'll make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention. I'll also keep their space clean and send regular updates with photos so you know how they're doing. My goal is to make your pet feel relaxed, cared for, and loved while you're away.
About: work fully remotely and care for pets from only one household at a time so I can give them the focused attention they deserve. Living near Green Lake, I love incorporating long neighborhood walks or light jogs for dogs who enjoy staying active. I grew up in a dog-loving family and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets. Since I work from home, I’m available all day long on weekdays. On weekends I can sometimes be gone for half a day, so it’d be good to get advance notice (2 weeks would be best). Currently living in a studio apartment around the Roosevelt station, my place is smoke free, alcohol free, and kid free. Also pets are allowed on furniture!
“Angela was wonderful. She went the extra mile when she couldn’t get in on the first day and successfully figured out a solution. We would definitely recommend her. Thanks Angela and Rover.”
About: Excited to be back on Rover after a few years off! When it comes to dog walking and pet sitting in general, I follow the philosophy that I will treat your pets the way I’d want mine to be treated. As someone who has found dog walkers through Rover for my own dog, I know what it’s like to be on both sides of the app, and your pets are safe and happy with me! As I do with my own pet, I’ll end up singing your pets names in silly songs and make sure they get lots of love while you’re gone - whether it’s for a longer vacation or even just during the day while you’re at work. I’m also more than happy to bring in your mail/any packages that show up, water plants, and anything else you need while you’re away. My pup is an epileptic boy so I know the paranoia and worry that comes with health issues. I will ensure that your pets get the best care and meds on time when applicable. I do have experience with reactive dogs, and have experience with various training philosophies. I’m happy to work with whatever training method you use when walking or checking in on your dog. In the past I’ve gone through all of the levels of dog training at All About My Dog in Natick, MA and both All Paws Retreat and Columbus All Breed in Columbus, OH. I’m very responsible and communicate well about how your pets are doing. I’ll always send you updates and lots of pictures! I have a very flexible schedule this summer! Should have some flexibility during the year as well for continued services and regular walks and drop ins. Having a stranger from an app into your home can be a little terrifying, but I will absolutely be respectful of your space. I’ll of course clean up any accidents that your pets have, and make sure muddy paws are wiped before going back inside. I also double check the doors each time I leave to make sure they’re locked. I also make sure to block the doors and enter quickly so pets don’t sneak out!
“We were so glad Daniel was able to help out at the last minute when we needed somebody the night before! Our dog had a great time walking and hanging out with him and hated to see him go, even after a whole hour visit.”
“Jimena is a wonderful and dependable dog walker! Our pooch looks forward to his time with her and does a little happy dance every time she comes to pick him up. We feel so lucky to have found her. We highly recommend her services. 👍”
About: I have many years experience with many kind of animals, as well as taking care of senior cats and dogs with health issues and medication needs. I'm have also worked with and owned rescue pets who need careful awarenes to understand triggers. I hold a Pet CPR and First Aid certification through American Redcross, and have volunteered at a human society for several years. I will get to know your pets special personalities, and know how important it is to maintain their regular routines! I work full time, but live and work in the neighborhood. My range is set close so that I can take a break and come check in on, walk, feed and play with your pets! I'm flexible with times throughout the day, very reliable and I enjoy getting to know neighbors and their pets. I love getting to spend more time with animals as I am currently petless for the first time in years! I follow instructions well and make sure to follow all directions to provide your pet with the routine they rely on. I know how important it is to maintain that routine while your pet is stressed with your absence, but still it fun! I have watched others animals for years, and have consistently been told that folks wouldn't trust anyone else! I also have had and taken care of multiple rescue animals with triggers and can learn how to recognize and adapt to make them feel safe.

About: Over the years, my husband and I have shared our lives with all kinds of dogs: farm dogs, little dogs, a Great Dane in a studio apartment, and now our Mini Australian Shepherd. We have learned and refined our dog ownership skills over time, finally investing in professional training for both our dog and ourselves in 2025. That experience shaped the kind of care I offer today. I believe dogs thrive with clear structure, consistency, and calm communication. I strive to provide the kind of boarding experience I wish I could find for my own dog, where training, routines, and boundaries are respected while you're away. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my day. We have a large, fully fenced backyard, daily walks, and a very friendly Mini Australian Shepherd who enjoys canine company. Your dog won't be left alone for a typical workday. I do leave the house for school drop-offs and pick-ups, errands, or weekend activities. Dogs should be comfortable being alone for a few hours. Because I have both a young child and my own dog, I only accept dogs that: -Are friendly with children and other dogs. -Are up to date on vaccinations and flea prevention. -Can comfortably settle into a family home.
“My dog loved Don! He took such good care of my girl. Lots of walks, lots of pets, lots of updates. I felt very comfortable leaving her in his hands. I’d definitely look to book with him again.”
“Leia and Max took care of my ten year old Irish setter. I could not be more satisfied! I received daily photos and texts about how each day progressed. They were friendly to chat with, eager to take Summer for the weekend, and professional in making sure they understood all of Summer's behaviors and quirks. I very much enjoyed finding such caring pet sitters. I look forward to the next time Summer can stay with them.”
“Our old dog was hard to leave as he is getting very close to the end. He made it through with Chris, and we are very grateful. Chris was communicative about Bravo’s missteps and let me know when all was well too and sent reassuring pictures. He was accommodating about drop and pick up as well.”
