Personalized care for your dog or cat - Binghamton
Highly-rated overnight sitters - Binghamton
“We have had the same dog sitter since our 5 year old dog was born. She was unavailable for our most recent vacation, so used Rover for the first time and ended up deciding to go with Bobbi (and her family) and have our 2 doggies stay with them for our time away. We had a quick meet and greet to make sure our 2 doggies got along well with her dog, which went great. Bobbi sent reassuring messages and pictures every single day of our 12 day trip. Typically when we pick our pups up from our other sitter, particularly after a longer trip like this, they cry with joy to see us... run all over with excitement they cannot contain. This time when we picked them up, they seemed happy to see us, but not nearly as excited as usual, which to us indicated they MIGHT have preferred to just continue to hang with Bobbi and crew. It honestly couldn't have went better! We are so happy to have found Bobbi!”
“Emily was fantastic! Our dog loved every minute of being there. She was very communicative during our week long vacation and made sure to send lots of photos of our Pen getting loved on. We will absolutely be booking with Emily for any future trips or just for a small pooch vaca for our dog. We highly recommend!”
“We had such a great experience with Brooke! We got regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. We would absolutely book with her again—highly recommend!”
“Melissa was fabulous with Bear! This was our first time using Rover and we loved our experience! She sent pictures and kept us informed and was very transparent. Definitely recommend.”
“Korri was able to help us out in a pinch and took our dog over the long weekend! She took SUCH good care of him and treated him as her own! She sent us updates and many pictures!!! She was very timely with her response and we never worried about if our dog was in good hand our whole trip! ?Thanks again Korri!”
“Kristina is so great with our puppy, Olive! We were nervous about leaving Olive with someone new since she’s still pretty young, but right away we felt at ease with Kristina and it was evident that Olive absolutely adored her! We’ve now booked Kristina twice and will continue to do so - our pup loves playing at Kristina’s and comes home tired and happy!”
“Jessica and Chase were very helpful boarding Barley while we were traveling. We had two meet and greets before boarding so that Barley could get used to their house and their dog. They sent pictures every day with comments on how Barley was doing. We really appreciated that and looked forward to it every day! We know he really felt cared for by them when we picked him up and he had to say goodbye to each of them before we left. Thank you again Jessica and Chase!”
“I want to thank Bobbie and Clark for their excellent care of Leo. They helped us out on very short notice due to a prior cancellation. Daily communication with pictures. I know Leo was well taken care of. I would highly recommend Bobble and Clark.”
“This was our first time boarding our 7 month old puppy and the experience couldn’t have been any better. Anuradha and her family took amazing care of our dog. They sent us photos and videos everyday. Our dog slept with them at night and got to run around with their dog everyday. We will definitely be boarding here again in the future when we need too!”
“Gina surpassed all my expectations! Dolly could not have had a better experience with her. She sent me pictures and videos of Dolly enjoying every minute of her little vacation. It is easy to see how much Gina cares about dogs and their owners! She is a ray of light with boundless attentiveness to Dolly's wants and needs. I can't wait until the next time Dolly gets to be with Gina. She makes sure the time is nurturing and fun! Thanks so much!”
“Maria took such great care of our pup while we were away! She sent us pictures with updates, which made us feel connected! I highly recommend Maria for care, we will be booking again for future needs!”
“Our young golden retriever had a great time with Susan and her girls and their dog Oreo. Susan sent daily updates and pictures, which was so nice. We will take Gatsby to vacation there the next time our family goes away.”
“Heather helped on super short notice, giving daily updates on Moxxie! There was lots of time outside which Moxxie LOVES and she seemed super comfortable from the photos. Thank you for the amazing stay!!”
“Krystal's love of dogs is evident and her current bestie, Duke, was a welcoming partner! We left our sweet Piper with Krystal for a week and Piper seemed to adjust well and was in good spirits when we picked her up. I think she even missed Krystal and Duke for a day or so after we returned home! Krystal kept us abreast of how Piper was doing and was responsive to our questions. I was amazed by how unfazed she was by the cold, wet weather that hung over the Fox Valley the week we were away; seemingly taking the additional 4 muddy paws in stride! We would happily re-book with Krystal the next time we need to leave town.”
“Savannah did a wonderful job taking care of our little pooch for two nights. She was very accommodating of our schedule and we greatly appreciated it. We will not hesitate to have her watch him again! Both of our Rover.com experiences so far have been 5 star!”
“Laura was friendly and made the whole process of setting up the sitting arrangement so easy to work with. The communication was great—we received regular, fun updates and photos of our dog, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pup was being well-cared for and having a blast. We highly recommend!”
“Mary was amazing!! My dog does not normally like new people but he loved Mary and she took great care of him. I even had to book last minute because of a funeral. I was able to be fully present with my family at our time of loss because my dog was so well cared for. Thanks Mary!!”
“This was our first time leaving Osito overnight anywhere outside our home and we left him for 7 nights. Shanna was amazing making Osito feel comfortable. Osito had a chance to interact with other dogs as well (something he previously had not had much experience with) and we got pictures daily of how he was doing. It was great peace of mind knowing that even though we missed him he was having a little vacation of his own. We will definitely be booking with Shanna again when the time comes.”

About: Pet care for 20+ years! I have a true heart for animals and a passion for exercising with them to promote their physical, mind and spiritual health! I will love yours like my own!❤️ I work full time M-F in pediatric health care and take care of our animals before and after work. I am also free most weekends! My husband works from home and has a flexible schedule during the day. Our daughter (11 years old) also loves to help with the animals! We are an outdoorsy, nature-loving family! We love to walk the dogs in the neighborhood and let them play and sniff all over our large yard. We currently have 2 dogs living with us - Oreo, a terrier, and Duke, a tripod yellow lab! Both are friendly rescue pups:)
“Cassandra was amazing with my little parrot, Mochi. She was originally only supposed to check-in on her once a day for about two weeks, but this got extended to a total of a month because I was diagnosed with cancer really unexpectedly and had to get surgery. Thanks to Cassandra, I felt 100% comfortable about Mochi's health, happiness, and well-being!”
About: Hello! Over the last few years, I have gained experience in caring for dogs in daycare and boarding settings, as well as in some training settings. The knowledge that I have gained from these experiences sets me apart because I now know the importance of building trust with pets. I am an advocate for positive reinforcement training methods, and have some experience with Fear Free methods as well. While I do not have any dog training certifications, I have had the opportunity to work alongside some wonderful dog professionals who have expanded my knowledge and understanding of what it means to advocate for all dogs, especially those who may be a bit more fearful. If you have a pet who needs to take things slow, or has some behaviors that may not make them successful in a dog daycare setting, I would be happy to see if I can make it into their "safe people" club! After 3 years working full-time in the dog care industry, I have become fluent in dog body language and communication. If you have questions about your dog's behavior, I'm happy to give you my best input and point you in the direction of resources that may be a good fit for you and your pet! I am also happy to take care of baths and nails for dogs as long as you have supplies. I have 3 years of professional experience in both, but no haircuts:) I am working part time in the mornings and evenings for a few hours at a time, so I can fill my schedule around those hours with hanging out with your pet! In caring for your pup, I will monitor their behavior and ensure they are happy and excited about any activities we may be doing. When on walks, I like to keep away from any other dogs or people we may come upon, just to ensure everyone's safety and comfort. I keep a close eye on our surroundings, both on walks and in homes, to ensure nothing ends up in the mouths of curious pups that shouldn't be there.
“I was a first time Rover user and Kimberly made everything so easy. She answered every question in a timely manner. The meet and greet put my mind to ease. Loved the report and pictures every time she stopped to take care of our cats. I would recommend Kimberly and her son to take care of your pets.”
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs with a variety of needs, including regularly dog-sitting for a dog with epilepsy and administering care according to their specific health requirements. I am certified in dog training and have experience working with a comfort dog through my university, which has helped me develop strong skills in reading canine behavior, building trust, and providing calm, consistent care. In addition, I have completed multiple courses focused on compassionate care, allowing me to provide attentive, patient, and individualized support for every dog I care for. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, a puppy, a senior, or has special medical needs, I am committed to ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you're away. Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine. I work full time, but I have availability in the afternoons after work and am fully available on weekends to stay with and care for pets. I’m committed to making sure each dog gets consistent attention, exercise, and companionship during those times. I’m reliable and able to plan my schedule in advance to ensure I can meet each pet’s needs while their owners are away. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and trustworthy environment for every pet in my care, whether in my home or the client’s home. I closely follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, medication, routines, and behavior needs to ensure consistency and comfort for the pet. When caring for dogs in my home, I maintain a clean, pet-friendly space with constant supervision and a structured routine for walks, playtime, and rest. I have experience caring for dogs with special medical needs, including epilepsy, and I am attentive to any signs of stress or health changes. I am certified in dog training and use positive reinforcement and calm handling techniques to build trust and reduce anxiety. Additionally, my experience working with a comfort dog and training in compassionate care has strengthened my ability to provide patient, gentle, and responsible care for animals of all temperaments and needs.
About: Although I truly love all animals, cats have a special place in my heart. I grew up in a household of 1-2 cats and always found so much joy in playing with them and even pretending they were one of my “students” in my imaginary classroom. Whether they’re super energetic or sleep 90% of the day, I love both! I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! ☺️
About: I have extensive hands‑on experience caring for cats of all ages, temperaments, and needs. From shy, slow‑to‑warm kitties to confident social butterflies, I understand how to read feline body language and adjust my approach to make every cat feel safe and respected. My care includes feeding routines, litter box maintenance, enrichment play, grooming support, and administering medications when needed. I’m attentive to subtle changes in behavior—whether it’s appetite, energy, or mood—so I can keep your cat comfortable and content while you’re away.
“Christina has been blessing for me and my cats! - She is very sweet, gentle, caring and truly takes care of your cats as her own. Although I missed my babies when I went on vacation, I knew they were well taken care of and that gave me the peace of mind I needed to relax during my trip. She updates you regularly and is very good at following instructions. She even brought some toys for my kitties! Upon my return, I came back home to happy cats and a clean home! I highly recommend Christina and would hire her again!!”
“Caitlin was amazing, this was my first time using this app amd at last minute request she will willing to help. Very friendly and great communication. My cat looked like she had a great time and will use her again!”
“Rebecca is amazing!!! Our cat, Nox, absolutely adores her. We also really appreciate the quality of care and and how Rebecca sent us daily updates about how Nox was doing while we were away. Thank you, Rebecca!!!!!”
“Michelle is very sweet and trust worthy. I am so thankful she was able to take care of our kitties while we left and I know my cats definitely enjoyed her coming over, feeding & playing with them! She even went above and beyond to take our trash to the curb. 10/10 recommend Michelle :)”
About: I very much enjoy taking care of animals on my free time! I have over 8 years of experience with dog and cat sitting! I also have worked at a daycare and boarding facility to meet the needs to pets that come to stay and play! I have an open schedule to provide sitting for your pet! I currently have one young beagle who lives with me! And I know I can make time to help others who have pets that may have a busy schedule! I am accommodating for your pets needs and will provide caring and fun experience for your pet! I love to reward your pet for good behavior and to connect a stronger relationship with your pet!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Binghamton
“We had a last-minute Rover request, and Bobbi responded quickly and made booking easy. Even though it was a short stay, we could tell our dog had a great time especially with Mercy, their adorable pug! Bobbi shared updates and photos, and Nova seemed to really enjoy their spacious backyard. Bobbi was so kind and welcoming. We’d absolutely recommend her to others!”
“Emily took such good care of our Obi! Emily and her family took him in like their own! She sent pictures and updates throughout the day and was very attentive to all our puppy’s needs 😊 🩷 Would highly recommend Emily for all your pets needs!”
“Quite gracious and friendly. Bobbie and Clark were most accommodating on short notice. They were great with our dog who clearly had a terrific time in Bobbie and Clark’s wonderful care.”
About: Hi, I’m Melissa! What sets me apart is my deep lifelong passion for animals. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve cared for dogs and cats from their very first days all the way through their golden years. On top of that, we’ve had horses for over 20 years and many outdoor cats too! I’m very comfortable giving medications, shots, and, of course, providing lots of love and attention. Taking care of pets isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. Right now, I have a super flexible schedule since I’m not working outside the home, which means I have lots of time to spend with your pets. I’m available anytime and happy to fit into your pet’s normal routine. I live on a 10 1/2-acre property, so there’s plenty of safe space for dogs to run, explore, and just be themselves. I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time to take care of and play with your pups or cats. I’m available anytime Monday through Friday. I have a 10 1/2 acre property with plenty of room for animals to run and get their energy out. I have a long leash and I also have crates.
“Kimberly and her sweet son were so kind and welcoming. She was very conscientious of my dog's needs and sent many photos/updates throughout the day. Playtime and trails walks wore her out! She slept the whole way home. Thank you for taking such good care of our Emma!”
“Cristy was amazing! Her home was so cute and tidy. She has a sweet little dog that played so well with my dog whom normally doesn’t care much for others. Cristy was kind, communicative, and flexible.”
About: Since childhood, I have been responsible for the care of various animals, including dogs, cats, and small animals of diverse species. Among these, dogs hold a special place in my heart as my favorite animal. As a full-time stay-at-home mother, I am constantly at home with my children and dogs. During the summer months, we thoroughly enjoy spending time outdoors. I have a spacious backyard that is not fenced in, but I have a long tie-out if needed for your furry friends. Your pets will be well cared for.
“This was a last minute need so it was great he could watch Cody with very short notice. Cody is an older dog and does not take change well, so it was fantastic he was excited to return the next day which means Cody really enjoyed his stay. Great care and communication! Cody was all smiles!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my home all my life!! Just looking to hang out with some pups and help out! Dog has to be good with a baby in the house and another dog. We have a mini Australian shepherd. Dogs will get walked at least 2 times daily! I am fully available weekdays and weekends! I do not leave the house for more than a couple hours at a time and would love to take your dog with me for car rides if I leave when possible! I will take excellent care of your fur baby! I can let them out as many times as preferred and I am okay with any kind of feeding schedule!
About: I've always had dogs in our family and sense getting older continue to love them. I handle all the training for my dogs and even do bikejoring with them! I frequent the local dog park weekly and go on frequent walks as well. I have a large fenced in area (and an electric portion on top to defer dog nappers!) With free access of water and feedings twice a day (or more if your dog needs it!) your pups will feel right at home with me. I have basic first aid knowledge and did complete a semester of vet tech in collage so I can handle pretty much anything from pills to injections. Your dog will be treated like family and thus will get better treatment than most humans! LOL I’ve been running and maintaining my own business as a handywoman for the last few years but miss the interactions with other dogs! My schedule is very flexible for that reason. As stated in a previous section I have a fenced in yard with free access of fresh water and feeding done twice a day. My dogs are both house trained and crate trained. They also are great with other dogs. In my fenced in backyard it’s about 90% privacy fence and is currently in the process of being cleaned up after the pool had a leak and ruined a lot of the stuff we had back there including a jungle gym for the dogs.
“Love using Sarah for dog sitting! She is so flexible and I can always count on her with last minute bookings! Frankie leaps out of my arms to go greet her family and pups ❤️ Will continue bringing frankie ❤️”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals including dogs, cats, horses, ducks, and rabbits. I also had a great deal of time with other animals such as cows, and chickens at my Grandpa's dairy farm. One of my past jobs was being a dog sitter, to care for them, and do some training as well. I loved it! 🙂😁 I now have a German Shepard and Husky mix named Apollo, and I love teaching him new things, spending time with him, and of course taking care of him. 🥰❤️ I'm currently working as a house cleaner, and although I love the job, I would like to work some more hours. Sometimes clients cancel or reschedule cleanings resulting in less hours. I'm looking to do this hopefully full time, as I miss working with dogs. 🙂😁 I currently have a huge yard, but I can also give walks if suggested. I'm welcoming any animals except cats due to my boyfriend being allergic. I will do my very best to help any of your fur babies feel at home. 💌😁

“Shanna is a delight and took fantastic care of Keely. I only wish she lived closer to our home so she could be our full time sitter. Our dog came home happy and exhausted.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my entire life and I love to go on walks! I’m a medical student and am looking for ways to be active and enjoy some friendly pet time! Thanks! My schedule is different weekly so I’m very flexible with when I’m able to dog walk, depending on the time and day of the week. I live in a safe community where there aren’t a lot of speedy cars driving and there is also a fenced in area for dogs to play
About: I've spent my entire life having animals and loved them for my entire life. I've had cats my entire life, and often this is not lent itself well to me also owning a dog. We currently own three cats one 12 year old lady, and two 2 year old brothers. When I was young I would walk the neighbor's dog just so I could get some dog time in. In college and after college I had several roommates who had dogs I lived with, who I would also help care for either just for fun or while they were gone. I have also taken care of friends dogs while they are out of town on vacation. I have experience with cats from 6 weeks old all the way up to end of life. I have experience in giving cats medication, special diets, special instructions and any other quirks your cat may have. I'm experienced in walking dogs, playing with dogs, feeding dogs (including special diets) and while I love larger dogs, I currently am unable to care for them due to a medical condition and it only able to care for a small dogs. I'm currently taking a break from my career and have very flexible availability, both during the week and on the weekends. I do request 24 hours notice. I will take care of your pets with the instructions you leave me with. I will rely on you as the pet parent to make all major decisions and follow your rules as best as possible. I am great with communication and will regularly communicate with you to show you how your pets are doing while you're out of town and ask any questions that arise while you're gone.
About: Hello my name is Kylee. I have grown up with dogs my entire life. My family owned a dog daycare for several years that I took every opportunity to go there.. I have experienced in pet sitting. My biggest emphasis while pet sitting is keeping the pet parent daily informed with updates and pictures. I have an appreciation for pets with special needs meaning health related things, because my dogs has a strict diet that needs to be followed I am currently working as an activity director at an assisted living. My hours are 7:45 to 4:15 Monday- Friday. Once every month I do work weekends. I have a fenced in yard that has recently been put in. My dogs are extremely friendly with all types of dogs and cats. I am 100% open to staying at your place if you would prefer that instead.
About: I've been taking care of my friends, family and neighbors dogs for as long as I can remember. Anything from daily to week long periods I have fed, walked, and cared for those animals, as well as overnight stays at either my home or theirs. Pet care fits extremely well into my routine, I am an online college student with a majority of free time and flexibility. I am typically up early and readily available most of the time. I remain especially cleanly in my own home and clients, making sure to clean/ tidy up after the pet as well as stay attentive to their needs. Another way I care for pets is by enjoying their company, talking, playing and interacting with them on walks and at home to make sure they are safe, happy and attended to.
About: Thank you for considering me to be your trusted pet sitter! I have had dogs in my life since I was a young child. I have owned my own dogs for 11 years. I have experience with both puppies and seniors alike! My family and I are definitely “dog” people in every way! I offer personalized, one on one care for your furry family member! I currently work full time from home with a very flexible schedule and am home all weekends as well! I can accommodate your dogs routine into my day! I have experience with giving both oral and injection medication. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I structure my schedule around regular drop-in visits and dog walks, making sure each pet receives consistent care, attention, and exercise. I plan my routes and time blocks efficiently so I can be dependable and flexible for clients, whether they need recurring walks or occasional drop-ins. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so it’s a priority in my routine rather than something I squeeze in. I provide attentive, in-home drop-in care so pets can stay comfortable in their own environment. During each visit, I make sure pets have fresh food and water, take care of potty breaks or litter box needs, provide playtime, walks if requested, and plenty of affection. I also follow any specific routines or instructions the owner provides, administer basic medications if needed, and keep the home tidy by cleaning up pet-related messes. I always prioritize safety, consistency, and communication, and I send updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I’ve spent several years providing reliable, compassionate care for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch, I tailor my approach to each animal’s unique needs. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, medication administration, enrichment activities, and plenty of affection to keep pets happy and relaxed while their families are away. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment so every pet feels comfortable, understood, and genuinely cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my weekly rhythm, especially since I work from home three days a week. On those WFH days, I’m able to offer flexible, consistent attention—perfect for pets who enjoy companionship, regular check‑ins, or a steady routine. I build feeding times, walks or play sessions, potty breaks, and general wellness checks around my work blocks, making sure pets get the care and interaction they need throughout the day. On the days I’m in the office, I plan visits intentionally to keep each pet’s routine stable. Whether it’s morning care, midday enrichment, or evening check‑ins, I make sure every pet gets predictable, comforting attention. Because I’m used to balancing a hybrid schedule with pet responsibilities, I’m very organized and reliable about maintaining consistent care all week long. When caring for pets in their home, I focus on keeping their routine, environment, and comfort exactly the way they’re used to. I follow the owner’s instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, medication needs, and any household rules—so pets feel secure and stress‑free. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, whether they need extra play, quiet companionship, or a slow, gentle approach. I keep the home tidy and respectful, making sure food and water areas stay clean, litter boxes or potty routines are maintained, and any messes are handled right away. I also pay attention to small details like closing gates, locking doors, turning lights on or off as requested, and keeping the home feeling lived‑in and safe. Throughout the stay, I send updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing.
About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals at various ages/health levels/behavioral attitudes. I see every animal as an individual requiring specific care and love to learn about what makes them each unique. I grew up caring for chickens, had a dog in agility, along with a pet parakeet. I lived in Myanmar during peace corps and quickly became known as the "cat house" because all the stray cats would go in and out of my house--and I ended up caring for 3 litters of kittens alongside the mothers (thankfully getting them both spayed). I've done some fostering and overnight pet-sitting, and would meet your pets needs wherever they're at! I will be substitute teaching starting in the fall, so before that my schedule will be quite flexible, then afterwards I’ll still be available and flexible (I don’t plan to sub every day as I’m also an online student) but wouldn’t always be able to do midday visits. However, just ask! I only provide care in the pets' habitats as I can't guarantee my cats would get along with all animals, but I promise to leave the house looking the same as it did when I came in, use the appropriate leash/harnesses on walks, and keep litter boxes clean.
About: Growing up I've always been surrounded by pets of all sorts; dogs and cats and many others. Currently since I've moved out on my own I have a few of my own furbabies (my three cats Penny & Minx & Cheezeburger) that being said I live in my own home.If you choose me then you are helping me give some love to a furry critter who might need that extra help from a new special friend! I currently work first shift and have oodles of love to give hense why I 3 furbabies of my own haha. Typically you can find me fixing things around my house and with summer around the corner I crave to walk more hense why I think being a dog walker would be a interesting twist on how to spice up my life. Depending on your service that is needed we could further talk about what the expectations are. May it be a walk or feeding or simply to give them the good old belly rubs; just being there will be quite the joy.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring animal lover with a lifelong passion for pets. I’ve grown up around cats, dogs, and many other animals my entire life, so being around animals comes very naturally to me. I’m extremely comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand how important it is to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also have experience with basic dog training, including potty training, leash manners, and teaching simple commands like sit, lay down, and stay. Whether your pet loves playtime and walks or prefers cuddles and quiet company, I’m happy to adjust to their needs and routine. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always make sure they get plenty of attention, patience, and care. I know how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your pets, and I’m committed to providing dependable, loving care you can feel confident about. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day. As a realtor, I often work remotely and create my own schedule, so I’m able to stop by for potty breaks, feeding visits, walks, playtime, or check-ins as needed. Whether your pet needs quick drop-ins during the workday or extra attention while you’re away, I can usually accommodate a variety of schedules and care needs. I provide care exclusively in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I believe many pets feel less stressed when they can stay in their own home surrounded by familiar sights, smells, and schedules. I make sure pets stay on their regular routine for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and lots of love and attention. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and independent. I also make sure the home stays clean, secure, and well cared for while you’re away. My goal is always to provide dependable, loving care so both pets and owners feel comfortable and at ease.
About: I am very proud to be a "fear free handler". That's a big thing for me, if an animal is uncomfortable, I am 100% uncomfortable along with them.. learning their little quirks and finding ways to do things in the best way possible for that specific animal is what I do and I absolutely love doing it. I promise your animal will be cared for deeply while in my care. My passion has always been working with animals, providing them with the care and respect they deserve and I have extensive experience in the field. I’ve worked in horse barns, animal shelters, and dog boarding facilities, and I’m skilled in administering all types of medications, including insulin. Whether it’s feral cats or reactive dogs, I have the patience and expertise to help them adjust and thrive, including building trust with new people. I understand how intimidating change can be for animals, and I’m dedicated to making those transitions as smooth as possible. I’ve dedicated countless unpaid hours to caring for animals, driven solely by my love and commitment to their well-being. When you entrust me with your pet, I promise to care for them as if they were my own, providing compassion, patience, and unwavering dedication in every situation. I am pretty open with my schedule. I will love your babies like my own. I do work mon-thurs 3-9pm and Saturday 11-4. I am a perfectionist. If you tell me you want something done in a specific way or at a certain time, please let me know!! I'd be more than happy to jump through hoops to give your baby(s) what they need when and how they need it. I will put your animal above everything else, that's what I'm paid for and that's what I love doing.
About: For years I have walked and taken care of my neighborhoods dogs. I even had a dog myself and would take him on walks everyday. I now have a cat with my significant other and love playing with him. When I get home from work I like to go on walks, but I miss walking my late dog so walking and taking care of someone else animal would make me happy and also them. Making sure the yard is safe and doors or fences are close before letting the animals out. Making sure everything is put away and not in reach of the animals unless it is their toys or things meant for them.

“We have had the same dog sitter since our 5 year old dog was born. She was unavailable for our most recent vacation, so used Rover for the first time and ended up deciding to go with Bobbi (and her family) and have our 2 doggies stay with them for our time away. We had a quick meet and greet to make sure our 2 doggies got along well with her dog, which went great. Bobbi sent reassuring messages and pictures every single day of our 12 day trip. Typically when we pick our pups up from our other sitter, particularly after a longer trip like this, they cry with joy to see us... run all over with excitement they cannot contain. This time when we picked them up, they seemed happy to see us, but not nearly as excited as usual, which to us indicated they MIGHT have preferred to just continue to hang with Bobbi and crew. It honestly couldn't have went better! We are so happy to have found Bobbi!”
“Emily was fantastic! Our dog loved every minute of being there. She was very communicative during our week long vacation and made sure to send lots of photos of our Pen getting loved on. We will absolutely be booking with Emily for any future trips or just for a small pooch vaca for our dog. We highly recommend!”
“We had such a great experience with Brooke! We got regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. We would absolutely book with her again—highly recommend!”
“Melissa was fabulous with Bear! This was our first time using Rover and we loved our experience! She sent pictures and kept us informed and was very transparent. Definitely recommend.”
“Korri was able to help us out in a pinch and took our dog over the long weekend! She took SUCH good care of him and treated him as her own! She sent us updates and many pictures!!! She was very timely with her response and we never worried about if our dog was in good hand our whole trip! ?Thanks again Korri!”
“This was our first time boarding our 7 month old puppy and the experience couldn’t have been any better. Anuradha and her family took amazing care of our dog. They sent us photos and videos everyday. Our dog slept with them at night and got to run around with their dog everyday. We will definitely be boarding here again in the future when we need too!”
“Gina surpassed all my expectations! Dolly could not have had a better experience with her. She sent me pictures and videos of Dolly enjoying every minute of her little vacation. It is easy to see how much Gina cares about dogs and their owners! She is a ray of light with boundless attentiveness to Dolly's wants and needs. I can't wait until the next time Dolly gets to be with Gina. She makes sure the time is nurturing and fun! Thanks so much!”
“Our young golden retriever had a great time with Susan and her girls and their dog Oreo. Susan sent daily updates and pictures, which was so nice. We will take Gatsby to vacation there the next time our family goes away.”
“Heather helped on super short notice, giving daily updates on Moxxie! There was lots of time outside which Moxxie LOVES and she seemed super comfortable from the photos. Thank you for the amazing stay!!”
“Krystal's love of dogs is evident and her current bestie, Duke, was a welcoming partner! We left our sweet Piper with Krystal for a week and Piper seemed to adjust well and was in good spirits when we picked her up. I think she even missed Krystal and Duke for a day or so after we returned home! Krystal kept us abreast of how Piper was doing and was responsive to our questions. I was amazed by how unfazed she was by the cold, wet weather that hung over the Fox Valley the week we were away; seemingly taking the additional 4 muddy paws in stride! We would happily re-book with Krystal the next time we need to leave town.”
“Laura was friendly and made the whole process of setting up the sitting arrangement so easy to work with. The communication was great—we received regular, fun updates and photos of our dog, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our pup was being well-cared for and having a blast. We highly recommend!”
“This was our first time leaving Osito overnight anywhere outside our home and we left him for 7 nights. Shanna was amazing making Osito feel comfortable. Osito had a chance to interact with other dogs as well (something he previously had not had much experience with) and we got pictures daily of how he was doing. It was great peace of mind knowing that even though we missed him he was having a little vacation of his own. We will definitely be booking with Shanna again when the time comes.”
“Our dog had a wonderful time staying with Cassandra. She made sure that he was well cared for. He really enjoyed interacting with her dogs. He got lots of excerise, treats and snuggle time. She really knows how to make your dog feel right at home.”
“For a recent week - long vacation, we left our 3 year old golden doodle with Jeff. This was our first time using Rover and leaving her in someone else's home. After an initial meet and greet, we felt very comfortable with Jeff and Ember loved his fenced in yard. We liked the photo and written updates we received while vacationing. Jeff provided daily walks and outside time. He respected Ember's schedule and tried to maintain her schedule. In addition to our toys and treats, he also provided some. We will definitely use Jeff's boarding for future get aways.”
“Frank & Julie are Phenomenal! I was quite nervous about trying again to find temporary care for my dog after a poor experience on another pet sitting app. I read all the other positive reviews for this couple and anxiously decided to move forward with booking. I am so pleased with the care they provided! I feel they went above and beyond for my dog. I'm so grateful I found them instead of boarding, where he'd have had very little attention and interaction. Instead he got the love and attention he could want and all the comforts of home. I will happily continue to use their service.”
“Denise and her whole family are fantastic!! Our dog Miley loved her stay. I highly recommend Denise to anyone who is looking for a kind and compassionate dog sitter!!”
“My older pug sounds horrible when he breathes, but we are used to it and didn’t give Melissa enough information. She made sure we knew Harley wasn’t settling in very good and she was concerned. After sharing some ideas, they all settled down. Jelly Bean, my young pug, was entertained all weekend and both came home healthy and Happy! She is set up well for caring for our babies!”
“We loved working with Kimberly. She watched our dog for the first time and suggested a meet and greet to make sure she was a good fit with her own dog. We loved that and it made us trust her from the start. When we met her, Kimberly asked us many questions about our dog that made us feel like she would take very good care of her. Also, Kimberly’s home is quite literally the perfect set up for dogs. We know that our dog loved staying there and we enjoyed the updates Kimberly sent us throughout her stay. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
