“Knowing that my little princess is safe, happy, adored, and well maintained is such an essential stress relief while traveling. As always, we are super happy with the quality care that Diahann provides and we will be returning again!”
“Nikkole was a wonderful sitter to my 2 mini dachshunds. She has a large fenced yard where they loved to play when they were outdoors and a comfy couch where my girls loved to lounge with her. Nikkole is easy to talk to and she sent daily photos and updates and was quick to respond to questions. I’m very grateful to be able to trust her with my little ones and will definitely use her again when the time comes. Thanks Nikkole!”
“Anna was amazing with our dog. She cared for her like she was her own. Kept us updated with multiple photos and videos daily. Couldn’t ask for anything better than that. Would definitely recommend and consider next time I need someone to watch our pup.”
“Leslie is fantastic!!! We felt so good about leaving our baby with her. Basil has some separation anxiety (so do I) and she was great with both of us and sent photos every day and some videos of her playing. It made it so we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about her. We will definitely use her on the future and highly recommend her!!!”
“Buddy had another great stay! We love the update selfies and texts to let us know he's ok. My kids look forward to these! They love seeing Buddy with his new friends. We also like the flexibility in drop off/pickup times, and the ability to make a quick departure. Most of all, we appreciate the personal attention he gets each stay. We know he's well taken care of because he's so relaxed when gets home. ”
“Sheena and her family were the best decision we've ever made regarding our dogs. They were wonderful at communicating during our trip and we could tell our pups were happy and stress free while they were gone.”
“Petee was definitely a spoiled puppy during his stay. He felt very comfortable and she made him him feel like it was home. Thank you Kathie and see you this weekend. Sharon”
“I’m so thankful for Ingrid. She took care of my two boys with patience and understanding, working with me to make them as comfortable as possible. She handled their anxious moments with calm and kindness, and her daily updates gave me total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after, and I couldn’t recommend her more for anyone looking for a patient, caring, and reliable sitter!”
“Noelle was extremely professional, kind & passionate as a host. She provided daily updates to include detailed notes and photos of my dogs day. Her home was amazing, very clean and pet friendly. Noelle set the standard for all dog sitters on Rover and I will definitely be booking again. I wish I could give her 10 stars !!!”
“Our dog Princess was well taken care of. They listened to our concerns, our suggestions, and what works best for our dog. Princess came home so happy. We will definitely be taking her back and are thankful to them for treating our dog as one of their own.”
“My dog seemed to be very happy to spend time with Roger and his family, specially his mother was a stellar in taking care of my dog for 3 days, and I think my dog really love to be around with his little friend, Amazing communication with lots of updates. I will definitely be having Roger sit for me again in the future!”
“This was our two large breed dogs first stay with Odalys. We went out of town for 6 night cruise and were inaccessible most of the time, but thankfully everything went great! I really appreciated all the updates and communication. I highly recommend her services! Thanks again Odalys!😊”
“McKenzie was so great! She cared for our dog so well. Our dog has anxiety and is very timid in new situations and she made him feel right at home. She sends updates and photos every day. Definitely will recommend her and have her dog sit for us again!”
“10/10 recommend Katrina and her family!! They showed my fur babies the best care and love :) I felt extremely at peace with them being there! Katrina also sent updates of them everyday making my experience even better than expected! We will definitely be using her again :)”
“I can tell my dog loves his staycations at Mariko’s house. She takes him to the dog park nearly every day and gives plenty of attention. She goes the extra mile. For example, she provided stairs to help my senior dog in and out of the car. She’s also really good about sending daily check-ins (photos, videos, etc.) It is a bit of a drive to drop off and pick up for us, but it’s totally worth it. She is our go-to dog sitter.”
“Kristine is awesome, got stuck in a snow storm traveling back. Kristine was very understanding. I’m very grateful I could leave my mooch with someone so wonderful. He enjoyed his stay!”
“Dexter and Dory love staying with Ashleigh & family, it has become their second home, they seemed to be a little bit sad to leave them behind today, We're very happy to have found such a wonderful place to leave our pups when we need to, thanks Ashleigh, Jeffery, Ernie & Boston :)”
“Boarded our 2 dogs for 12 days… Harlie was great! She sent pictures of the dogs every day or every other day with comments on how they were doing. I felt very at ease and comfortable with Harlie taking care of my dogs while on vacation! I knew they were safe and well taken care of! Will 100% leave my furr babies with her again! She provided 5 star service & a very personable experience!!”

“Jazmyne was fantastic! I booked her to check in on my four cats for a couple days and am happy I did. She was kind, communicative, willing to take on the challenge of feeding my monsters wet food (they are spoiled and will only eat their food if I prepare it a certain way), spent time playing with them, and left my home nice and tidy. Additionally, she was able to make my grumpy Siamese comfortable enough to run on his cat wheel! I will 100% be booking with her from now on.”
“Ellyse is always wonderful with my two cats! They love seeing her each day and her care for them is exceptional. Verona needed eye drops this time and she took care of this for me.”
About: I have about an acre of land for your pups to run and play! Fully fenced yard (multiple) so they are always contained. I'd love to watch your fur babies whether it's for the day while you're at work or for extended time while you're away! I have always been around dogs and other animals including cats, bird and small critters. Growing up we always had at least 3 big dogs. I now have my own pup who is also a large dog. I previously worked for a vet clinic as a veterinarian assistant for about 2.5 years and have also worked as a pet goomer. So overall I have about 10 years of personal and professional experience walking, feeding, bathing and caring for dogs and other animals! I am also K-9 CPR certified! I work from home 3-4 days out of the week depending on the week. When I am at work my husband is home so your pups will almost never be home alone. 🤗 If you choose to board with me or have your pet attend daycare, I own a home that is on about an acre of land and has 3 separate fully fenced yards for them to safely roam and play. If you have hired me for doggie walks, I am very aware of my surroundings in order to keep your pup and myself safe during outings. I am also aware of things that are toxic to dogs and things that could hurt them and do everything I am able to keep your dog safe and healthy.
“Leslie is great! She checks in on my cat when I am out of town. Making sure she gets her meds, food, and a clean litter box. I definitely recommend her to look after your pets!”
“Rachel was timely and friendly and took great care to make sure our dog was fed and had water and got to spend some time outside. We appreciated her willingness to be flexible with us when our plans changed a bit. We would definitely ask her to take of our dog again in the future.”
“Silvia goes above and beyond. She is trustworthy, reliable, conscientious and even asks about doing extras. I have zero concerns leaving our pet babes in her capable hands”
“Chelsea is amazing and took wonderful care of my two kitties. They are very different cats with unique needs and she was very patient and loving towards them, as well as detail oriented. I can’t emphasize how much I appreciate her approach and care with my cats.”
“Seadrah has exceeded my expectations of a dogsitter. She is attentive, kind, and nurturing to both my dogs. Seadrah asked great questions before her first visit so she could give my dogs the care they needed. She provides training and lots of play time so that I come home to happy and calm dogs. She maintains excellent communication before, during and after a visit.”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. I grew up with two family dogs for 18 years, and caring for pets has just always come naturally to me. I also foster dogs, cats, and small critters, so I have experience with pets of all personalities, ages, and needs Pet care fits so naturally into my day because I genuinely love having animals around me. My schedule is super flexible. I’m in part-time school and work part-time so I have plenty of time. When pets are in my home, they’re treated like part of the family. I keep a close eye on them at all times making sure they’re safely leashed outside, supervised during playtime, and always comfortable. I follow whatever routines they’re used to, like feeding schedules, crate time, or potty breaks, so they feel calm and at home. There’s always lots of love, attention, and gentle structure to keep them happy and safe. When I’m caring for pets in someone else’s home, respect is everything to me. I treat your space the same way I’d want mine treated clean, careful, and mindful of your rules. Whether I’m staying overnight or just stopping by for a walk, I make sure your pet gets all the care they need while also keeping your home tidy, secure, and exactly how you left it. I’m very routine friendly, so I happily follow your pet’s normal schedule, house rules, and comfort needs.

I currently work from home as a graphic designer, except for one or two days a week subbing at SBL School District or when I see dog training clients. I do have two cats and three senior dogs, so staying close to home for their needs would align with any pet I am caring for. *New Clients must be crated trained!* This is to ensure safety around my other pets during feedings and sleeping/naps. For the safety of you fur- family, I ask that they are comfortable in kennels* I have a fully fenced shady back yard, two loving kids and three sleepy senior dogs to keep your fur baby company during their stay. There is ample space to play, train and explore! Exercise and mental play are important to a happy pet, so whether at your house or mine, we make sure to pack in the fun!
“Maggie loves coming to Madeline's house. Madeline is quick to answer messages and extremely sweet. Maggie comes home exhausted even though there's no other dogs there when she is there. It means that they're spending quality time with her and that means a lot to me. I'm grateful for Madeline and her home and her sweet family”

About: I have been working with/training dogs & training horses for over 20 years now. Working with animals is always something that has come natural to me & I can't imagine doing anything else. I currently have the most amazing 2 year old Belgium Malinois/GSD. (River) She has taught me so much about life this last year. She's made me a better trainer & continues to push & challenge me to learn more each day. I also have a 1 year old male Cane Corso (Mountain). I've known him since birth & River has been helping me raise him since he was 9 weeks old. He's been the perfect addition to our pack. I started training dogs when I was 13 & I realized I had a natural gift for it. My neighbors growing up would ask me to watch their dog or walk their dogs & I even trained a few of my neighbors dogs. Which is the first time I began to realize this was something I was not only good at but that I LOVED to do. I spent years studying & learning about how dogs learn, behave & interact with each other. I wanted to understand them more. (Their pack instincts & such) All of this research has helped me understand how to teach many different kinds of dogs in all kinds of areas. Training dogs is what I do for a living right now & i work with my own dogs every day and keep them well trained, behaved and ready for any dog friends to come visit. I'm available pretty much 7 days a week. (Give or take) Caring for pets is just something I've always done & I can't imagine myself doing anything else. I have a HUGE fully fenced in back yard. I have an 12 year old amazing boxer/lab who helped train & teach my Malinois how to be a good canine citizen & now they are both continuing to teach my Corso how to be a canine gentleman. So now I have some amazing dogs who do a really good job of welcoming any dog into their home and making them feel right at home.

I am comfortable feeding dogs, interacting with them and I love to give lots of love. I am familiar with giving medication’s to dogs if needed. Your animal will be in good hands as I will love them as my own. Whatever an owner needs for them and their dogs to be well cared for, I can accommodate. I work from home, so the dog will always be accompanied with me. we’ll have plenty of playtime, outside time and potty breaks. I provide at least 2 walks a day and several Potty breaks from 7 am up until 10 Pm. I have a fenced yard where they can play as they like and they can hang out inside as well. I am very interactive with the dogs and love to send pictures.

About: I have over five years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes. As a lifelong pet owner, I treat every animal like a member of my own family. I work part time, which gives me full flexibility to put your pet first. Because I am always around, your pet will never be left alone for long periods, ensuring they get constant attention, bathroom breaks, and companionship. Your pet's safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. I treat every animal with the same care, vigilance, and caution that I would want for my own pets.
“Andrhu is so great with our girls! He plays so well with our social dog so that she is worn out and happy when we get home. For our shy dog, he gives gentle attention and praise, working to form a bond of trust. He was also so thoughtful to stow our Amazon delivery safely out of sight. He really is the best!”
“Kacey was the perfect answer to giving our dogs a midday break while our friends were taking care of them. Kacey was the ‘dog whisperer’ and even got our boys to ‘pose’ for some beautiful photos! We are very thankful for Kacey and her loving care of our boys during their walks together. Thank you, Kacey!”
“As I have had surgery and can't walk Gary for while, I looked for someone on Rover to help out. I'm so glad I came across Ingrid! She is so professional, reliable, and good with my big golden who has never walked very well on a leash for me. Ingrid has the magic touch, along with the skills, to help with the pulling. I would highly recommend Ingrid for any Rover service.”
“Shyanne, agreed to walk Aithusa the night before after another walker canceled due to illness. She sent pictures and route of thier walk and communicated when needing to adjust the time of one of his walks. Aithusa was happy when I returned home from work. I think thier walks helped him not miss his mom, who's away.”
About: I have had all sorts of pets from chinchillas to parakeets to dogs and cats. I have experience taking care of neighbors pets as well as my own.

About: I have grown up with cats and dogs, and am familiar with many other kinds of animals. I have sat for non-family/friends and well as them included many times before! I have managed taking care of 5+ pets at once, given proper meds, care, playtime, etc. This experience ranges from kittens/puppies just a few days old, to older aged animals. I work “full time” but I work around 30 hours and I have a lot of split shifts so time before or after to check-in with the pets. This looks like morning feed, going outside, if any meds or vitamins need to be taken or same with after depending on the time of day needed. Depending on circumstances of boundaries and rules of each pet, I easily find a solution and adapt if needed. I will watch your dog/cat outside or on a leash front or back of yard. If there are off-limit areas inside our outside those will be closed doors or if there’s a gate it will be put up per clients request. If there needs to be check-ins with owner that be applicable, I am attentive to my phone, when and if necessary.

Basil has some separation anxiety (so do I) and she was great with both of us and sent photos every day and some videos of her playing. It made it so we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about her. We will definitely use her on the future and highly recommend her!!!”
“Sheena and her family were the best decision we've ever made regarding our dogs. They were wonderful at communicating during our trip and we could tell our pups were happy and stress free while they were gone.”
“Noelle was extremely professional, kind & passionate as a host. She provided daily updates to include detailed notes and photos of my dogs day. Her home was amazing, very clean and pet friendly. Noelle set the standard for all dog sitters on Rover and I will definitely be booking again. I wish I could give her 10 stars !!!”
“Our dog Princess was well taken care of. They listened to our concerns, our suggestions, and what works best for our dog. Princess came home so happy. We will definitely be taking her back and are thankful to them for treating our dog as one of their own.”
“My dog seemed to be very happy to spend time with Roger and his family, specially his mother was a stellar in taking care of my dog for 3 days, and I think my dog really love to be around with his little friend, Amazing communication with lots of updates. I will definitely be having Roger sit for me again in the future!”
“This was our two large breed dogs first stay with Odalys. We went out of town for 6 night cruise and were inaccessible most of the time, but thankfully everything went great! I really appreciated all the updates and communication. I highly recommend her services! Thanks again Odalys!😊”
“McKenzie was so great! She cared for our dog so well. Our dog has anxiety and is very timid in new situations and she made him feel right at home. She sends updates and photos every day. Definitely will recommend her and have her dog sit for us again!”
“I can tell my dog loves his staycations at Mariko’s house. She takes him to the dog park nearly every day and gives plenty of attention. She goes the extra mile. For example, she provided stairs to help my senior dog in and out of the car. She’s also really good about sending daily check-ins (photos, videos, etc.) It is a bit of a drive to drop off and pick up for us, but it’s totally worth it. She is our go-to dog sitter.”
“Kristine is awesome, got stuck in a snow storm traveling back. Kristine was very understanding. I’m very grateful I could leave my mooch with someone so wonderful. He enjoyed his stay!”
“Boarded our 2 dogs for 12 days… Harlie was great! She sent pictures of the dogs every day or every other day with comments on how they were doing. I felt very at ease and comfortable with Harlie taking care of my dogs while on vacation! I knew they were safe and well taken care of! Will 100% leave my furr babies with her again! She provided 5 star service & a very personable experience!!”
“Katie was amazing to work with! She and her family took such good care of our dog, we received lots of updates and pictures of her throughout her time there. Highly recommend and we'll 100% be using her going forward!”
“Kristin and her family were great! Our large dog Sumo had a fantastic time and was taken care of with love by Kristin. She made everything very easy for us and was flexible with the pick up time as our travels extended a bit. We will happily be rebooking in the future!”
“Our dog Murphy always loves Marlena’s house. Treated like part of the family, she gives her lots of cuddles, treats and outdoor time. She’s often home and spends time making sure all the dogs play well together.”
“Charlotte was wonderful with Murphy! Her dog Louis was so sweet and Murphy had the best time playing with him and another pup in Charlotte’s care. Charlotte kept in contact with a few updates, pictures and videos so we knew Murphy was in good hands. We will definitely use Charlotte’s services again when we leave town.”
“Tiffany and family were fantastic. It did not take long after we dropped our dogs off for them to feel right at home. Kylo can be nervous around kids but had no issues with these ones. In fact, he crawled into their laps for pets. I definitely recommend this family, they treat the dogs like members of their own family and my dogs fell in love quick.”
“Cindy did a fantastic job watching Cassie! She was attentive, thoughtful, and listened to all of the details we shared about Cassie’s routine and personality. It was clear that Cassie was well cared for and comfortable while we were away. Cindy was also highly communicative, providing regular updates and sending photos, which gave us great peace of mind. We really appreciated the care and attention she gave, and we wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Cassie again. Highly recommend!”
