“We were SO LUCKY to find Lauren to dog-sit our precious Rosie (a border collie/ lab mix) while we went to Maui! Lauren helped to manage OUR stress at having to leave Rosie by sending us pictures and little notes of Rosie regularly. When we picked Rosie up, it was obvious how well cared for Rosie was, she was clean, happy, and in great shape. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU Lauren, for taking Rosie into your home and family, and taking such good care of her!”

“Christina and Nick watched our large Rottweiler for 6 days. Christina provided very helpful and detailed updates multiple times per day. Meet and greet, pick up, and drop off were all agreed upon and followed. Wonderful hosts - thank you!”

“Laura and Kevin took wonderful care of Ralphie. Laura took the time to send daily updates and photos. It was reassuring to be away knowing Ralphie was in great hands. We will be booking with them again!”

“Pam and her family are wonderful! Clearly very caring and capable! They have a great, quiet neighborhood perfect for walks. Very responsive communication! Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”
“Lieb did an amazing job taking care of our Sky! He kept in constant communication, sending us pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that he truly cared for Sky like she was part of the family. We highly recommend him—absolutely wonderful and trustworthy!”

“Yesenia and her family took great care of my old man Chase. I was really nervous leaving him because he previously injured himself. However Yesenia followed his food and medication schedule to a T and helped speed up his recovery. They always kept in touch with me while I was away by sending pictures and videos. They also answered promptly whenever I was checking in. I will be using Yesenia and her family for my next trip! Thank you so much for a positive experience.”

“Juan and his family took great care of our dog while we were out of town for a week. He was quick to respond to our messages and provided us with updates as to how she was doing. We would gladly use his services again in the future.”

“Oliver loved staying at Ksenia's. Her place was clean and welcoming and he felt right at home. She is a great communicator and sent lots of picture updates. He can't wait to go back!”

“Evelien was genuinely the best! I felt comforted the whole time due to her constant updates and adorable photos! She was responsive and extremely friendly! My Ducky came back happy and in the best mood!!! I will definitely be sending my little boy back to Evelien for future stays and would recommend to anyone else looking for a sitter!”

“Sunny is the best caregiver. Attends to all details and takes notes for any quirks and preferences. I feel as close to my dog as when I am at home because she constantly gives updates with details and pictures/videos.”

“Sujanna was great to Sidney and great to work with!! She sent multiple updates and pictures every day. I could tell that Sidney was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Sujanna as a dog sitter and look forward to using her again.”

About: I grew up with both dogs and cats, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs belonging to friends, family members, and clients—including dogs with anxiety, especially while their owners are traveling. Many of these dogs had previously stayed in large commercial boarding facilities where multiple dogs share the same space, which often increased their stress and anxiety. I’ve seen firsthand how much of a difference a calm home environment and personalized one-on-one attention can make. I am also certified in American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid, so I’m prepared to respond in case of an emergency and provide attentive care for your pets. I focus on patience, consistency, and gentle, loving care to help each dog feel safe, comfortable, and secure. With dedicated attention and companionship, I’ve watched anxious dogs gradually become more relaxed and confident—sometimes they even seem reluctant to leave! :) I’m home full-time to care for your pup. This means your dog will receive plenty of attention, regular walks, and consistent, loving care throughout the day. I have the time and flexibility to focus on your dog’s individual needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for during their stay. I keep my schedule flexible, but I only care for one dog at a time to provide the best possible experience. Because of this, spots can fill quickly—especially during holidays—so please plan and book in advance. Located in a quiet, friendly neighborhood, my home is designed to provide comfort, security, and plenty of room for your dog to relax and play. Your pup will enjoy a park-like backyard—nearly half an acre—fully fenced for safe exploration and outdoor fun. Whether they love to run, sniff, or simply lounge in the sun, there’s plenty of space to feel at home. In the summer, I also set up a dog-friendly swimming pool so they can cool off and have some extra fun. I share my home with a very friendly 9-year-old Black Lab who is gentle, well-socialized, and enjoys calm companionship with other dogs. To ensure every dog gets the attention, care, and comfort they deserve, I typically host only one dog at a time (with a maximum of two during holidays). This allows me to focus on your dog’s individual needs and create a low-stress, personalized experience. Your dog will be treated like family here—safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way.
About: I've been a pet owner my whole life. There was always a dog in my home when I was a child. Later on, in my own home had raised two dogs and a cat from their earliest days. My sweet Golden Retriever, Milo, was with me and my kids since he was 10 weeks old. He was amazing! Sadly after a year of being sick and fighting a good fight, it became too much for him. My kids & I said goodbye to him with many tears and such a heaviness in our hearts. It has been sad not seeing his happy face when I come home or unusual to not have to take him out for his nighttime walk. We miss him so much! I would love to be able to share my love that I had for him with the caring of another dog. I'm home during the day which allows me to have the time to devote to your dogs.i also have two teenage kids who are able to walk and play with him. I live on a quiet dead end street with hardly any cars coming through. I have a nice sized yard which is great for playing and taking in the suns rays(my dog would love to just roll his body over in the grass...lol). So I would being taking care of your precious baby boy/girl as if he/she was my own! I also will only take care of one dog at a time... so YOUR dog will have ALL my attention! I am a very easy going down to earth person.... I'd love to chat with you about your needs and concerns for your dog. Please let me know what I can do to help you ... Talk to you soon! Kathy
“This was the second time leaving my Saint Bernard Momo with Ken and Irene and everything went wonderfully again. Momo appeared to get along fabulously with the other dogs there. Ken and Irene sent photos everyday. Ken and Irene have a great enclosed outdoor space where Momo was able to play with the other dogs and get his daily exercise. Momo looked as if he were just part of the family, which is the best one could hope for when leaving one's pet while away on vacation. I definitely recommend using the services of Ken and Irene because there really is no replacement for that confidence, comfort and peace of mind that comes with knowing that your pet is being cared for exactly the way you would want.”

“I feel so happy I found this beautiful family to take care of my pup. Marisol and John took care of Rio like another member of the family, so great he had big space to explore and be free. They are the best and I can totally tell my pup loved his stayed in their house 😊”

“Kun was a beyond amazing sitter from start to finish! Taj had such a great time there, through boarding, that I cannot wait to bring him again! He updated me with numerous photos and videos with them spending a fantastic time together! Including my dog with his Maltese as well! Would definitely recommend if you have a smaller pet!”

“Amazing host! They offered a meet and greet before boarding. During boarding, they shared many photos and updates such as what they’ve played and their appetite. I felt very comfortable having them watch over my dog.”

“Demetra was amazing!! We loved their family and our pug was so happy! He had such a great time with them and they took such good care of him! I am looking forward to bringing him over again!”

Allendale pet parents share their Rover experiences
Monica & Kelvin are truly the best!! They were very accommodating and eager to take on my 2 dogs with last minute booking. We were very fortunate to find them available on the holiday weekend. We have a spoiled 1 year old King Charles who requires hand feeding at times, and they were more than willing to accommodate this feeding. The constant pictures and updates was great showing both dog’s were adjusting, and truly happy during their stay.

We had a very positive experience from start to finish, beginning with scheduling and completing the meet and greet, as well as the smooth drop-off and pick-up process. Lucy truly enjoyed her stay with Kimberly and Tom, and she came back happy and clearly well cared for. We will definitely return for our future boarding needs. Thank you for making the entire process so pleasant!

Celeste is AMAZING!! Do not hesitate for a moment to leave your pet with her and her family. She was wonderful with our puppy and sent us pictures and videos! He was treaded like part of the family in her home. He came home happy and well cared for. I will 100% be using Celeste again to care for Hank!!
