“Rachael was punctual, great with communication, and took cute photos of our boys. She seems to have a lot of experience and wasn't intimidated by our younger dog that can be a handful. We look forward to having her come again!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for over 10 years, including my own dog, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. Friends and family regularly rely on me for boarding, walks, and overnight care. I’m attentive, patient, and make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also familiar with feeding routines, basic training, and handling different energy levels. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m available for boarding on both weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust to your pet’s routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where your pet will be treated like part of the family. I have experience caring for dogs in a home setting and always prioritize supervision, routine, and comfort. I can accommodate crate training if needed and will follow your pet’s usual schedule as closely as possible. I also provide regular updates so you feel confident and at ease while you’re away.
About: I have always had at least one dog in my life, so not only does my love for dogs run deeply but so does my knowledge of care. I want to make sure your pet is comfortable, fed, watered, and has gotten time to be outside to play and go to the bathroom. In addition, I have taken care of other peoples' animals throughout my life. As of right now, my weeks are open to taking care of your pets in whatever way they may need. This is my top priority. When taking care of your pet I make sure they always have water and food, have time for potty breaks, and are comfortable. I also always give them plenty of attention, cuddles, and love. If there are any special instructions, I also make sure to give the specific care your pet needs.
“Dara has been a responsible care giver for our 2 dogs several times. We are grateful to her and recommend her to others looking for someone they can trust with rhe peta they love.”
“Asuka is amazing! I received daily texts/photos and concerns re: our pups and home while we were gone. I can definitely trust that my pups are well taken care of with Asuka!”
“France has been nothing short of incredible! We worked on my pup's schedule together, as I recently started a new job and needed some flexibility. Today, she took him for a walk; seeing him so happy was the best feeling! I highly recommend Frances; her care, communication, and knowledge about her services are outstanding. If you're looking for an excellent dog walker, this is your chance to meet Frances and make your puppy as lucky as mine!”

About: I’ve owned and taken care of cats and dogs in the past 10+ years. Friends have relied on me to take care their pets (dog boarding/home visits) when They are away.

I am skilled in training puppies and providing gentle care for the elderly :) Can teach your pup how to sit, lay down, wait, stay on their spot, and even how to shake your paws on it! c: I’m currently working part-time on the weekends, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your beloved. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and house sits all day on Mon-Wed; on Thu-Fri I am available from 8AM-3PM; Saturdays and Sundays can be negotiated :) When caring for your pet in your home I will maintain their exact daily routine, memorize home logistics, note the primary veterinarian info, respect any off-limit areas for the pet and myself, clean up if needed, care for the pet’s physical safety, and provide you with consistent photo or text updates as requested :)
“Cristina was prompt and came to my house exactly when I booked the alotted time. My little fur baby loved her. She played in the back yard with my boy and really spent quality time for the 30 min I booked her for. I will definitely use her again. She followed all my directions and was mindful to make sure not to let my pets out and dart out the front door. Thank you for your care and attention to detail.”
“Adaley has been amazing. She stopped by for a meet and greet which made me feel much more comfortable as a new user to Rover. She checked in daily and provided a bunch of pictures. We absolutely recommend and will book her again in the future.”

Adaley continues to be so wonderful with my kitty! He has gotten so comfortable with her and even gets in her lap which is very rare for him to do with anyone but myself. She is diligent in her tasks and takes such heartwarming pictures. I feel so safe leaving my kitty knowing she will visit him daily.
Tatiana was an amazing sitter!!!! She was always reliable, punctual, and very kind. Tatiana was took great care of my cat! My little boy can be very difficult and spoiled, but Tatiana was patient and managed everything perfectly, including giving him medication and feeding him. Honestly, she took care of Mishka even better than I do myself. Tatiana paid attention to every small detail and followed all the instructions carefully. She always asked questions if she has any doubts, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She gave my cat medication exactly at the prescribed time. During the whole time, Tatiana sent me lots of pictures and updates, so I knew my cat was safe and happy. I highly recommend Tatiana to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and trustworthy cat mom! She is the best!!!!
Kat and Quinn saved the day when they agreed to a last-minute drop in request for our dog Ernie. They made the whole process so smooth and easy…and most importantly took great care of Ernie while they were here! They fed him his dinner, made sure that he had fresh water, took him out to potty and also gave him lots of snuggles and love. Because they were here taking care of him ,I was able to relax and enjoy my nieces high school graduation. 🐾🩷🐾🩷🐾 Thank you so much to Kat and Quinn! We appreciate you both! 🙏💕
Amanda was a great pet sitter for our cat! She was there on time and stayed for the full duration of each booking. We loved the different updates and pictures she sent with each visit, she was there to spend time with him. We could tell our cat warmed up to her quickly and enjoyed her company, which put us at ease during vacation. Will definitely be booking her again.
Daria was a fantastic pet sitter for our cat - very attentive and caring. She came by for a meet and greet first, which we really appreciated, and kept us updated with professional-quality, super cute photos and videos. Would absolutely book with her again.
My dog felt very comfortable around Adam, who was really accommodating in coming on short-notice and doing a quick play session to introduce himself to Champ. Adam was also very understanding about giving me updates on my dog throughout his visit. This was the first time my dog was left with someone else in months, and am glad it was with someone I felt I could trust!
Samantha was absolutely incredible, we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment she started caring for Hudson and Jaxson, it was clear how attentive, responsible, and genuinely caring she is. She made sure both dogs were well taken care of with regular potty breaks, meals, and water, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. What really stood out was how thoughtful and communicative she was, keeping us updated and treating our dogs like they were her own. Hudson and Jaxson both seemed happy, comfortable, and relaxed when we got back, which says everything. It’s not easy trusting someone with your pets, but Samantha exceeded every expectation. We would 100% book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, kind, and truly great with animals.
Kaylyn was AMAZING doing daily drop in visits for our shepherd mix puppy while I was out of town. Eve can be a little hesitant around new people but she instantly loved Kaylyn. Kaylyn was also good about approaching Eve at her speed and understanding where she was at. 10/10 recommend her & will definitely book her again!
Bar is amazing at taking care of our 17 week old golden retriever puppy, playing with him and teaching him good behavior. She is very patient and caring. Our puppy loves spending time with her. She is also very responsive on Rover and very courteous. We are so glad she is able to take care of our puppy!
