“My puppy enjoyed the day playing with Brandon and his friendly pets. Brandon was reliable, responsive, worked well with my puppy’s energy level, and sent me a lot of updates during the day. We will be back.”
“Allison and her family are the BEST!!! They took such good care of our very little puppy ! He is still working on potty training and Allison was understanding and accommodating . Her dogs got along great with our new puppy!! She sent pictures throughout the day and made us feel at complete ease. Mylo did not want to leave their house, he had so much fun. Would Highly recommend !! Will be using again :)”
“Great sitter! Jobe was very communicative and flexible since we were using Rover to care for our pup while attending a friend’s wedding out of state. It worked out great because while we were able to have fun and relax with friends on a special day, Kouvr was having the time of her life with Jobe and his girlfriend and his other Rover pets! Bonus of her being exhausted and ready for bed after a day and a half trapped in a car/hotel room. 10/10!”
“Dianna responded very quickly and it was great to have Xena with another Blue Merle Aussie. Cared for her for the day while we went to the Ark Encounter and sent pictures of play time and walking. Would use Dianna again if we li Ed nearby.”
“Ryan was wonderful with my two dachshunds. Boarded them during the day while we had workers installing new carpet. Sent pics and videos so I had no worries. They came home tired and happy. Would hire Ryan again.”
“Jonathan was super responsive and willing to do a meet and greet with us. Our dog can be nervous around bigger dogs, so this was really helpful. We were able to do a short 3-hour daycare soon after and really appreciated all of the updates that Jonathan shared throughout Penny's visit. Thanks, Jonathan!”
“Jenny and her family were amazing!! They took care of my dog like he was their own. He had so much fun and didn’t want to leave. Jenny also sent me awesome pictures of all the fun he was having. Thank you so much!”
“Jax had a great day with Amy and fur buddies. The fenced-in area is very large with lush green grass. Jax also enjoyed the pool. Amy is a delight and has a great love for her pets and those she cares for. I thoroughly enjoyed the pictures and knew Jax was in good hands. If ever back in this area Amy would be my choice for doggie daycare!😍”
“Jen & Rob took such great care of my dog for day care weekly. He always came home happy, healthy, and exhausted (thank god, he is a high energy Aussie and needed to expel that energy!). Thank you, Jen & Rob for being a safe place for me to bring my dog!”

“Angel, We we're very pleased, she was very accommodating to our needs, and our time. As a pet parent you get a feel your pet is at ease with the sitter. Our Buddy went straight inside as we dropped him off, not even a see you later! High recommend Angel.”
“Leeann was amazing with a last minute booking and being so flexible on drop off and pick up times. Thank you for finding a calm room for her to stay where she was comfortable too!”
“Susan is the biggest sweetheart ever ! My boyfriend and I had never left our dog to stay at a sitter and it overall gave me alot of anxiety. I found Susan on rover and picked her to watch my baby. When we dropped my pup off Susan was so accommodating, she let my pup meet all of her dogs one by one, she introduced me to everything and showed me and my boyfriend around. She sent me photos every hour it seemed and showed me my girl was so happy, and having alot of fun during her stay!! she sent tons of updates and I knew my girl was in good hands. I will definitely be using Susan as our future Booker for trips! I never want to leave our pup with anyone but I'll definitely trust Susan to watch my babies !”
“This will be the third week in a row that my Roxxie will be attending doggy day care with her two new dog friends in Nancy’s home. It’s so amazing that I can go to work and not have to worry at all if my dogs being well cared for. Nancy is the best!”
“Jihting was excellent. Met her & family, including Cupcake, beforehand & she was very understanding of our needs, ensured we knew who would be around, that there would be water, playtime, etc. Would recommend & will use again for Ollie's daycare needs.”
About: I have years of pet care experience. I’m great at walking dogs, playing with them, and giving them all the attention they need. I’m different from other sitters and walkers mainly because I have been around pets my whole life. I’ve even done volunteer work with both dogs and cats. I love going to the dog park when the weather is nice plus taking trips to petsmart and Petco to let my dog interact with new animals and people is fun for me. Seeing an animal grow by learning something new or just become more loving is a goal I present myself with every time I care for a dog. I’ve cared for animals so much that I even wanted to become a vet one day.
