“Alexandra did a wonderful job. Very responsive to text messages and provided daily updates. Her residence has plenty of space for dogs to run and have fun. Definitely going to book with her next time we need a sitter. I felt very comfortable that our dog was in good hands.”
“Marie and Mark took great care of my extremely attention needing Basset hound. Sent lots of updates and treated her so kind. Would highly recommend them to watch your pets.”
“They took such good care of Morgan, we were very anxious about leaving her, she's never been away. They sent me pictures to let me know she was doing well. Thank you so so much!”
“We had an excellent experience with Cait and Tim! Our pup didn’t have good manners when meeting their family dog but they didn’t seem to be worried. He eventually settled in and he had a great time for his overnight. He was so tired the following day from all the activity at their house. We’d never used a service like this before. We would recommend them 100%!”
“Bandy and Chad have been fabulous with our dog Patty. She can be a nervous little dog when she's out of her normal environment and they've been so patient and loving to make her feel so at home. We are so relieved and thankful that we've found such reliable sitters with Brandy and Chad. Patty will definitely be going back and we know she'll look forward to it!”
“Exceptional loving care! Outstanding communication, photos and videos of Otis' stay. We went on vacation. So did Otis! Such a comfort to us knowing Otis was happy and secure.”
“Nicole and Josh are life savers and helped me with my dog Parker last minute while I was out of town. They are such kind and loving people and I can not appreciate them enough for the care they gave my dog. You guys are amazing!! Definitely recommend them to anyone”
“Dax spent the night at Anna's because my wife and I were in my sister's wedding. Anna is very responsive and kept us informed of Dax during our wedding. Anna was very accommodating for us too. We had to drop Dax off early in the morning and we picked him up early in the morning too. If we need to drop off Dax again, we will try Anna again.”
“Brianna was wonderful. She was amazing to Nova and treated her like her own. When we had problems at the airport coming back, Brianna was easy to talk to and made delay home less stressful since we knew our baby was in the best hands.”
“KAREN WAS EXCELLENT!!!! Daily exercise, communication and thee best photos! I almost think my dog is sad to be back home!! Her whole family seemed to enjoy taking care of my sweet Delta. I also want to add that I used Rover for the first time, very last minute and Karen was also patient with me :) Hope she is available for our next trip!!!”
“Jackie and her family were so great to meet, they were all there to have the dogs meet each other and my dog who is 4 months went right over and started playing with Brownie. Jackie was very caring, asked all about Penny and her routine ahead of time, once we met and the dogs were playing I didn't worry at all about leaving her. She also sent many updates and pictures, and Penny even went in the dog pool right away. My dog slept for 2 days after coming back home, that is how much playing and fun she had!”
“James and Lauryn were clearly affectionate toward Lila and immediately brought her into their family. She was well taken care for and tended to as if she were their own.”
“Jacky and her family were great! They were able to accommodate a last minute request and made us feel very comfortable. This was our first experience using Rover and we are so happy we gave it a try. Jacky was very sweet, responsive, and sent great pictures and videos. Our pup had a great time and seemed so comfortable and happy. We will definitely use Jacky for future pet care needs!”
“Talisha did great with our dog Edie! She helped her feel comfortable and clearly gave her lots of love. Edie seemed happy from the picture and message updates we received. We would highly recommend Talisha to anyone who needs care!”
“We were looking for a special person to watch our two dogs while we were away. One of our dogs is insecure and the other has a lot of energy. We were so happy to find Beth! We wish we could give her 10 stars! She and her husband did such a great job with both pups. Beth was in regular communication and the pictures she sent told us everything we needed to know. The dogs looked so happy and comfortable. We are truly grateful for the wonderful care that was provided. A+++!!”
“I couldn't have been happier with the love and thorough care Shelly gave to my dog, Rocky. I feel so incredibly blessed to have found Shelly to be his caregiver. Shelly sent pictures throughout his stay with her and even helped me figure out some new foods and treats for my picky little eater. I will be booking with her again and again! You won't regret booking with Shelly. She is a true animal lover.”
“I am so thankful to have found a sitter like Michelle to watch our dog, Obi. It was easy to see the natural love she showed in caring for Obi and she went above and beyond by giving us updates for our whole time away. I felt great knowing Obi was in a wonderful environment and I would not hesitate to book again!”

“Katlyn took such good care of my two cats! She sent photos and left updates on how they were during drop in visits. I would definitely recommend her and plan on using her as a pet sitter again 😊”
About: Please note*** I cannot board pets where I live, all pet sitting (days and overnight) is done at your residence. Hello! I've had dogs and cats all my life. I am the type to keep my dogs active whether it be playing fetch in the yard or throwing the stick in the lake for them to fetch. I believe in lots of play toys and chewys so they never get bored. I also understand the dog who might be more calm, maybe a little shy and likes time alone, and that is very understandable. I am a retired nurse and know pretty well the signs and symptoms of pain or discomfort. I understand the importance of proper nutrition and availability of fresh water. I lost my 14 yr. old lab to old age 2 years ago, and just recently got a new yellow lab puppy here in March. I really missed having a travel companion! I'm a unique pet/house sitter in that I travel in my beautiful Canadian Roadtrek Campervan and can house "watch" while taking care of your pets. I do not need to stay in your home. Any additional duties other than "watch" your house can be negotiated- like water a few houseplants, etc. I do ask that you provide a household electric (120V) outside plug in. My small RV uses approx. $2-$3 per day of electricity. I love animals. I have a 3 yr. old yellow Labrador myself! I travel often in my RV and we make great travel partners often stopping at dog parks 2-3 times a day on our adventures. Beau would love to have playmates! Currently I am mobile in the Western AZ / Southeastern CA area. I will come to you. I can stay as long as you need for your pet care - up to 2+ weeks if needed. I can only provide mobile pet/house sitting. I am unable to pet sit in the home I live in. I am a recently retired nurse. I am trained not only in human CPR, but I also have dog and cat CPR training. I have given pets medication, induced vomiting -per instructions while on the phone with a vet tech (after dog ate 1 1/2 lbs of bing cherries - pits and all. Happy ending! :). When I go into a home I find myself scanning countertops and floors for potential hazards for pets - things like medications, foods, hot boiling water on stovetop with handles pointing out, etc... I am constantly monitoring for potential dangers. Sometimes things happen though, unfortunately, that can't be avoided and that's when first aid, CPR, poison control line, and Vet info need to all be available and handy. I ask that all instructions be written down and text/emailed to me 24 hours prior. That way if I have any questions, they can be answered before you leave on your relaxing worry-free vacation!
“Absolutely incredible sitter! Katelyn took care of my dog, Lola, for two weeks, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Lola adored her from the very beginning, and it was clear every single day that she was in loving, capable hands. Katelyn went above and beyond—not only did she keep Lola safe, happy, and well-loved, she even taught her a couple of new tricks while I was away! She sent updates, was attentive to everything Lola needed, and treated her with the same affection and patience that I would. Coming home to a relaxed, confident dog who clearly had the best time was such a gift. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, kind, reliable, and genuinely great with animals, I can’t recommend Katelyn enough. She’s fantastic.”
“Charlotte did a great job tending to my littles while I was on a work trip. The frequent updates and pics were appreciated. She was neat and respectful staying at my place. Highly recommend!”
About: I have always had pets while growing up. Rabbits, dogs, cats, calves. My family lived on a farm in my younger years and I absolutely loved the animals we had and loved caring for them. I do drop in visits to care for some of my friend's animals and I also walk dogs,play with them and keep them company while their owner's are at work. My pet's have always been considered my kids and I take the utmost care for friend's,family and customer's pets--as if they were my own. Animals seem to warm up to me right away. I look forward to meeting your pets and making a great relationship with them. I am on Social Security Disability so I am unable to work. I am disabled due to neck surgeries/pain but caring for animal's does not not interfere with my pain. It's very therapeutic for me to be around animals. I am usually very flexible with my schedule, as to fit you in, if I have a 3 day (or more) notice. I am not offering pet sitting in my own home but will gladly do drop in visits at yours or walk your animal(s) from your home.

You can also reach me at 7I also animal sit for my family and friends all the time. If you have any questions please feel free to call or text me. Thank you, Jenny M.

About: Hello! I am a nomad traveling full time with my two friendly, fully vaccinated dogs. For house sitting gigs, my family can stay in their comfortable home, our bus, or we could coordinate a meet and greet. I’ve spent over 10 years caring for dogs, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I specialize in fun walks, safe handling, and making every dog feel loved and secure. Pet care is a big part of my daily life. I’m available most weekdays and weekends for walks, drop-ins, and adventures to keep dogs happy and exercised. I always provide a safe and calm environment. I’m experienced with all dog sizes and can follow any routine to keep pets secure and comfortable.
“Alec and Buddha did a great job taking care of our babies while we were gone. I felt completely comfortable having them at the house alone knowing he was going to be there twice a day to play with them and feed them. I never had to worry that they were in good hands. Alec was reliable and went above and beyond to even report on packages being delivered, etc. I will definitely use him again!”

About: I've been pet sitting since I was in middle school, and more recently I've been pet sitting for family, friends, and Rover clients. I've had cats my entire life and currently I have a 5 year old dog. I am a stay at home mom, so I am able to watch your pets in my home and give them the loving attention they deserve while you are away. I send updates and pictures as often as you would like. I have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule. I have an unfenced yard and a dog of my own. I have loved cats all my life.
About: My husband and I have both grown up with pets and have continued caring for animals throughout our adult lives. We have extensive hands-on experience with dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, and we currently care for a variety of animals in our home, including fish, a bearded dragon, a leopard gecko, a hamster, and hermit crabs. This has given us a strong understanding of different care needs, routines, and behaviors across species. We’re attentive, patient, and comfortable following specific instructions — whether that’s maintaining feeding schedules, administering basic care, or helping pets feel calm and safe in a new environment. We truly treat every pet as if they were our own. Because we work from home, pet care naturally fits into our daily routine. We’re around throughout the day to provide attention, playtime, feeding, and companionship, not just quick check-ins. Our flexible schedule allows us to adapt to each pet’s needs, whether that means extra cuddles, medication reminders, or keeping a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. We care for pets as if they are part of our own family. In our home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play safely. We live on 10 acres, which allows for supervised outdoor time, walks, and fresh air, and we also have a large outdoor kennel available when appropriate for a pet’s comfort and safety. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we focus on consistency, attentiveness, and respect for each pet’s routine. We follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication instructions, and any special requests closely. We make it a priority to be responsive, communicative, and attentive so both pets and owners feel comfortable and confident while they’re away.
About: I have 2 older BIG dogs and 2 cats. Not afraid of anything that comes out of them lol. Patience and love go a long way with animals. I will walk/watch your animal with the same care and attention that I give my furbabies. I am an online Cybersecurity teacher and work from home, so I have time to stop over while you are at work. Not available after 8pm. I have a semi fenced yard, leashed walks only or hang outside with me on a tie out. We also go to the dog park by the water tower for some off leash play. I never leave them unattended as there are lots of neighbor dogs.
About: My husband and I are a team of active, educated individuals who love all types of dogs! My husband is a high school math teacher and I am a high school counselor. Working from home during summer has allowed us plenty of time to spend with our dog. We have a 5 year old Yellow Lab who still has the energy of a puppy! We keep up with all routine vet visits and our dog is caught up on all vaccinations including Bordetella (kennel cough). My husband and I live in town but have a large backyard to accommodate play time. We allow our dog on furniture and in our bed a night time..dogs don’t get the long, full life that is humans get, so we like to let him live it as a spoiled pup! We will love your dog like our own!
About: Hi! My name is Bri and I am a stay at home momma who can’t wait to have pawsome adventures with your pups! 😊🐶 I have experience in feeding, grooming, walking, administering medication, and ensuring a safe environment for dogs since childhood. This began with my family dogs, which taught me the importance of love and patience with our furry family members, and this mentality has continued into my adult life with my own pups! I am a stay at home momma so I have a lot of availability and flexibility all week long for boarding, daycare, check ins, etc.! I am available for pick up/drop offs between 7am-7pm I have a large yard with a friendly fur baby of my own to keep your pet company! I also have endless tough chewer toys to keep your pup’s tail wagging!
About: I’ve had pets in my life since I was a child. When married and had kids, we’ve always had dogs and have cared for our dogs in every aspect, walking, bathing, grooming, vet care, etc. Currently we don’t have a pet, but our house is a perfect set up to take care of yours. Currently we are retired. We would have plenty of time to go for walks, play and relax. Our dogs in the past have used our very convenient doggy door into a fenced area for potty breaks. Your dog will be treated like one of our own, getting lots of love and attention during the day and can sleep overnight in a doggy bed or crate whichever is preferred.
“Cate and Tim and Ainsley were great to Murphy and their place was a perfect playground. Murphy came home happy and tired. It was our first Rover and she had no stress. Highly recommend them!”
“Shelly was awesome. She was flexible when I had to change my dates. There was plenty of open space and other animals for Bear to play with. Shelly also was helping with our potty training since Bear is only three months old. I will use her again.”
About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have had both cats and dogs since I was a little girl. Caring for pets has always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love being around animals of all kinds. I currently have three dogs of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily care, walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving pets the attention and love they deserve. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll care for them like they’re part of my own family. I have a flexible and reliable schedule that allows me to provide consistent pet care throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I am able to accommodate regular visits, overnight care, and extended stays when needed. I understand that pets thrive on routine, so I prioritize dependability and clear communication to ensure each pet receives steady, attentive care while you’re away. I provide calm, attentive care in either my client’s home or my own, always prioritizing each pet’s comfort, safety, and routine. I create a low-stress environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed, following their normal feeding schedules, exercise needs, litter box or habitat care, and any specific instructions provided. I take time to build trust at the pet’s pace, especially with shy or anxious animals, and I pay close attention to their behavior and wellbeing. Communication with pet owners is consistent so you always feel informed and confident your pet is being well cared for.
“Brianna has been such a huge blessing for our family and for our pup, Vince. He absolutely loves going to her house – her kids are so sweet with him and he’s become part of the little pack with her dogs. You can tell she really understands dogs and manages the energy in her home so everyone feels safe and included. I always feel confident dropping him off because I know he’s supervised, loved on, and genuinely having fun. We’re really thankful to have found someone we can trust with our boy during long work days and trips. Highly recommend Brianna if you want your dog to have a second home.”
“Orlando and Nicki were very responsive and accommodating. They were welcoming and hospitable. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with them and they took very good care of our pet.”
“What a wonderful couple. They “get” dogs. Our one has separation anxiety and the other is borderline. They seemed so chill here and happy. We even got a happy photo of them. We’ll definitely be back. This is so much better than them being cooped up in a kennel at a boarder. Thank you, see you next time.”
About: We grew up with pets and we have a pet loving family. We have a German wirehair pointer dog, cat and raise rabbits for showing. We also volunteer at a local goat farm and help take care of goats. I work full time out of the home, Monday-Friday, so your dog will be kenneled while we are at work. Unless it’s summer or holiday then my schedule may be different. I will do morning walks and night walks and playtime outside after and before work. We have an unfenced large yard so your pet will be leashed for playtime. We have a nice larger private backyard so plenty of space for exercise.
“We needed a last minute sitter and Anna was able to take our little guy on such a short notice. She did such a wonderful job with getting Louie adjusted as it was his first time. She sent pictures through out the day to help make us feel comfortable.”
About: I have grown up with dogs of all kinds throughout my life, so being around animals has always been a natural part of who I am. While I currently don’t have a pet of my own, caring for others’ pets is incredibly fulfilling because it allows me to continue giving love and attention to animals while helping families feel confident their pets are in good hands. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I focus on providing dependable care, lots of attention, and clear communication with updates and photos so you always feel comfortable and connected while you’re away. I work from home full-time, so your pet will have lots of company, love and attention throughout the day—no long lonely hours here. I live in an apartment that has a dog park, and lots of nearby walking trails I go to daily. Since I don’t currently have a pet of my own, caring for others’ pets truly brings so much happiness into our home. I love creating a calm, loving environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I do everything I can to make both you and your pet feel comfortable and confident in my care.

I do drop in visits to care for some of my friend's animals and I also walk dogs,play with them and keep them company while their owner's are at work. My pet's have always been considered my kids and I take the utmost care for friend's,family and customer's pets--as if they were my own. Animals seem to warm up to me right away. I look forward to meeting your pets and making a great relationship with them. I am on Social Security Disability so I am unable to work. I am disabled due to neck surgeries/pain but caring for animal's does not not interfere with my pain. It's very therapeutic for me to be around animals. I am usually very flexible with my schedule, as to fit you in, if I have a 3 day (or more) notice. I am not offering pet sitting in my own home but will gladly do drop in visits at yours or walk your animal(s) from your home.
About: I lived with 2 cats for a majority of my life. I have experience watching animals for family and friends, looking to meet new best friends. I am currently working full time and going to school part time to earn my master’s degree. Looking for a fun side job to keep life interesting. I am open to having the animals out in the open or crated when not around. Would love to have a yard to play with animals, but not opposed to going to local parks.
“I'm happy to have chosen Joseph to walk my Husky, Maya! He would always show up for our designated time and day to walk Maya, no matter how cold it was. which I really appreciate. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for someone to walk their dog as I always knew she was in good hands. Thank you Joseph!”

About: I’ve grown up with pets all 22 years of my life, and caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am. I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science, where I took specialized courses in dog training and behavior, as well as animal nutrition. On top of that, I gained hands-on experience working as a kennel technician at a local veterinary clinic, caring for pets of all ages—including seniors and those with special medical needs. In my free time, I love walking and spending time with my own dogs, so I truly understand how important daily exercise, consistency, and loving companionship are for a happy, healthy pet.

At my home, I take dogs out on leashes for all potty breaks and walks to ensure they stay safe and secure at all times. My own dog is crate trained, so I’m familiar with using crates as a safe space when needed. I also take time to slowly introduce pets to new environments or routines to help them feel comfortable and relaxed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all routines exactly as instructed—whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, or favorite walking routes. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always aim to create a calm, loving, and trustworthy environment.

We would recommend them 100%!”

“Jackie and her family were so great to meet, they were all there to have the dogs meet each other and my dog who is 4 months went right over and started playing with Brownie. Jackie was very caring, asked all about Penny and her routine ahead of time, once we met and the dogs were playing I didn't worry at all about leaving her. She also sent many updates and pictures, and Penny even went in the dog pool right away. My dog slept for 2 days after coming back home, that is how much playing and fun she had!”
