“Jimmy was at Richard's during the week of Christmas and seemed like he had a great time with him and his pack of dogs. Richard was kind, accommodating and sent pictures and videos regularly. His house has a huge yard for the pups to run around in. When I got back Jimmy was a happy, healthy and tired pup. Will surely recommend Richard and his pack to others looking for a safe and fun place to board their dogs.”
“Kathleen was SO great! The photos and videos she sent helped us rest assured that our baby boy was being taken care of. If you’re looking for someone to take care of your dog while you’re away, I’d HIGHLY recommend Kathleen! We will absolutely be utilizing her services again!”
“It was amazing to have Amy watch our dog! Drop off and pick up were very easy and convenient, and she was wonderful with our pretty anxious and nervous dog. She took great care of him and really went the extra mile in every way. Thanks, Amy!”
“Victoria was a phenomenal sitter for our pup Luna. Victoria was super responsive before and during Luna’s stay with her, and Luna enjoyed having lots of room and other doggy friends to play with during her staycation. The best part was receiving frequent photos and updates from Victoria, which always brightened our day. I highly recommend Victoria for any of your pet sitting needs!”
“Denise and her husband did such a wonderful job with my dog, Parker. It was my first time using their services and they made me feel comfortable and worry free while I was away with frequent updates and photos. Highly recommend! Hope to be able to book with them again soon. Thank you :)”
“A sweet gem of a person! Super attentive to the needs of my pup and stayed in contact with me. Picture updates were provided too. Christine picked up on Beanie’s personality so quickly and handled her with such care. Christine rocks!!”
“Christy was great with our doodle! I was nervous to have her stay with someone since it was our first time but things went so smoothly and once I met Christy and her dogs, I felt so much more comforted! She sent pictures and updates everyday without fail and it was so clear that our pup had gotten attached to her when it was time to leave. She is also extremely communicative and punctual! We are glad to have found a reliable and kind dog sitter for our pup to use long term. Thank you, Christy!”
“Tia’s home feels like Robin’s second home. We booked with her several times and Robin came back so happy and healthy each time. I always got updates from Tia and saw Robin was having an amazing time with his friends! 🐾 I really trust Tia and her family with everything and I am sure they take care of Robin like their own dog! I can’t recommend booking with her enough 💕”
“Kristen was absolutely amazing! My dog was sssssooooo comfortable with her and the other pets. Even made friends with a kitten!!!!! Love her! Will definitely be reaching out to her again!!!! THANK YOU 😊”
“Nelia and Brett, along with the rest of their beautiful family, took amazing care of our dog! Their communication was excellent — They sent (at least) twice daily updates and pictures. Our dog was given lots of attention and exercise and was very happy during his stay in their home. We will certainly book with them again and we highly recommend!”
“Tevon was wonderful. He took great care of our dogs, was very informative and quick to respond. Will definitely book with him again next time we’re in need.”
“Emily and Patrick were wonderful! From the beginning, they were asking thoughtful questions about Ruby's needs, routine, and personality. Their dog, Eli, became a new fur friend to our pup, Ruby and the photos and videos they shared while we were away gave us peace of mind. They were also accommodating as we had to change our drop off and pick up times. We will definitely be booking them again!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Breanna doggie sitting our senior girl over the weekend. Breanna’s communication throughout the process was amazing proving updates and photos. Her experience with dogs truly showed. We had no worries! Highly recommend Breanna. Our girl misses her already.”
“As a pet parent, I always wonder if we should kennel or Rover, especially when we have a "needy/seperation anxiety" dog...Eronda exceeded our expectations, she truly loves/has huge heart for animals and commits her time to the animal rescue mission...all of the pics provided proved she spoiled our pet... Would recommend!”
“Our 15 year old dachshund, Bailey, had a wonderful long weekend with Theresa and Dozer. He came home happy and stress-free and I think he misses them! Theresa was great, very communicative with updates, and treated Bailey like one of her own. Bailey has more limited mobility since a back surgery a few years ago and Theresa gave me great confidence in how she handled him and made sure he didn't over extend himself. I wouldn’t hesitate to bring our little old man back to her again. Thank you!”
“Sebastian did an excellent job. He took his care of my dog and followed all the feeding and walking instructions. My dog looked happy and calm in all the beautiful pictures. I will definitely try to book with him again next time I'm out of town.”
“I was nervous about leaving my 7 month old lab for a week, especially with having some stomach problems prior to leaving. Chang was great at sending daily updates with pictures. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that needs to leave their pup behind while they go away”
About: Howzit 🤙 I’m excited to shower your pets with love! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, always treating them like family—with patience, consistency, and plenty of love. Over the years, I’ve built real-life experience from long walks, silly play sessions, cozy couch naps, and learning the little quirks that make each pet one-of-a-kind. Whether it’s boarding, daycare, or house sitting, my goal is simple: to make your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for—just like they’re at home. Because when your pets are with me, they’re family too. 🐾 I work full time from home Monday thru Friday, with weekends typically spent at the dog park, hiking, or camping (with my doggies). Pet care isn’t just a task in my day—it’s part of my rhythm. I start and end my days with walks, play, and feeding routines, and I naturally build in time for snuggles, potty breaks, and play sessions throughout the day. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I keep a flexible schedule so I can give your pets the attention they deserve. Caring for animals has always been part of my daily life, so fitting your pets into my routine feels like second nature. Whether your pets are with me in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, the routine is built around comfort, safety, and fun. That means sticking to their feeding schedules, giving them the right balance of exercise and play, and making time for cuddles and rest. I treat your pets—and your home—with the same care and respect I give my own.

Mariah also takes the time to work on training, and she is incredibly attentive and protective, making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just making sure they’re comfortable, she goes above and beyond every time. I couldn’t recommend her more to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter on Rover!”
Allegheny Center dog parents share their Rover experiences
Abby and Jason were incredible with our five month old puppy. We were anxious about leaving her for the first time, let alone for a whole week, and we were at ease as soon as we met them and Wall-E. Prior to booking they were communicative and that continued through the stay with daily updates. As soon as I picked her up I could tell she had a great week. As I am writing this she is taking a nap and we have already requested a stay for our next trip!
Christine was honestly so amazing. From the beginning she was soo helpful! I have never booked through here before or knew how this whole process went, and Christine made this process just so easy. I was so skeptical leaving my old lady while I went out of town due to her having anxiety issues from her shelter stay before I adopted her. But Christine made this a perfect stay for her! I got daily photos and updates and my Bella Bean even made a friend!!! (Christine’s kitten). This was just a lovely experience! And since my Bella Bean is so comfortable with Christine now, I will absolutely be booking again!! Thank you so much Christine!! 💗💗
Amber was great with my dog while I was away! She took him for walks every day, she hung out with him, and everything! She did such an excellent job that I don’t think he even cared that I was gone! She provided the best care, definitely recommend booking her!
Brittany is such an incredible haven for our dog while we’re out of town! She is incredibly in tune with animals’ needs, asking questions about potential quirks and triggers which make us feel confident he is in expert hands. We always know our buddy is safe and loved with her.
Stefani was so great with communication and drop off/pick up. My dogs got along wonderfully with hers, and her front yard is full of shaded trees—perfect for dogs resting on hot summer days. Great with meds and meal times and lots of pics. They loved her house and Stefani, and we will be back if we are in the area!
