“Allison was great to work with from our first contact with her – super responsive and organized. Our dog has a very specific medication schedule that Allison was able to accommodate, and we really appreciated the care she took in setting that up. We got updates while we were away, with pictures of our little guy enjoying lots of attention from the whole family! It was a great experience, and we have already booked a return stay. We would definitely recommend Allison.”
“I am so grateful we found Kristin :) Second visit for our golden, Sunny. While we were away Kristin sent pictures so we could see Sunny was so happy -- hiking, playing, and just snuggling...that just put us so much at ease. Sunny also comes home cleaner than when we left her which is no easy task! :) I think we have to leave Sunny with Kristin and Kaia more often because she clearly misses them when she comes home! Thank you for everything, Kristin (and Kaia!)”
“Kimberly, Victor, and Luke were amazing with Dr. Phil, they made it very easy and comfortable for me to leave my fur baby in their care. I will definitely use them again. Thank you guys”
“Wonderful experience! My go-to from now on whenever I need someone to watch my two cats. Super friendly, animal lover, safe and comfortable house for the fur babies to stay.”
“Laura was excellent. She has a wonderful home for dogs and it almost felt like dropping my pup off for summer camp. He came back looking happy too. Laura was friendly, punctual and asked good questions on how to take care of my dog.”
“Brittany was so great! She sent lots of photos of all the fun our dogs were having, keeping my mind at ease. She walked the dogs and made sure they had plenty of exercise, and from the looks of it- a ton of fun. Absolutely phenomenal!”
“Sean and Jill were communicative and accommodating. Even though my dog was initially nervous at drop off, I knew he’d be in good hands. While away, their check-in texts clearly showed they certainly liked our guy. They have an awesome fenced in back yard and doggy door, which he must have loved. Will definitely book with them again!”
“Sherry gave my dogs the attention and affection they needed while they were in her care. She has gone above and beyond for my one dog whom is a little difficult. We had a great experience.”
“Andrea was absolutely amazing! She was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make sure our pup, Scooby, felt comfortable and happy during his stay. We loved receiving the regular updates with pictures and videos, it gave us such peace of mind while we were away. To top it off, she even gifted Scooby the cutest goodie bag when we picked him up! I highly recommend Andrea and will definitely trust her to watch Scooby again in the future.”
“Triba is the best thing that could happen with a super worried cat mom, she arranged our video calls while I was away. She loved her like her own, she is definitely becoming her foster mom permanently ?”

“Patrick and Susan did a wonderful job with our puppy. They sent pictures of him playing outside with them and updates. He came home happy and healthy and we can't wait to use them again. We are so glad that we found them and now can feel good about traveling even though we have a dog.”
“Katie and her family were AMAZING!! We needed a last minute sitter and they couldn’t have taken better care of our girl. We got multiple updates and lots of pictures which put us at ease. Katie’s girls were super cute with Bear and she enjoyed all of the extra pets and attention. We’d 100% recommend Katie to anyone and look forward to having her watch Bear again in the future.”
“Stephen is a great pet sitter who looked after our beloved friend! We had a good opinion of him right away when we met him. He is very nice and pleasant, and he was excellent with Snowy! When we arrived to pick him up, he was calm and joyful. During Snowy's visit, Stephen sent us pictures of Snowy having fun, which was wonderful. I look forward to connecting with Stephen again in the future!! Thanks for doing such an excellent job; keep it up!!”
“Lily loved her stay with Andrea and Kurt! We are so thankful to have such peace of mind, knowing she is well taken care of and happy to be there. The fenced in yard is fantastic, Andreas dogs Hazel and Penny are now Lily’s pet friends! My husband Dave and I are retired and looking forward to being able to travel. It’s such a wonderful feeling knowing we have a family with a loving home to care for Lily. Andrea is exceptional at sending photos through out the stay, it is very reassuring to see”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for 4 years and I'm excited to continue my pet sitting journey on rover. I look forward to meeting your dog and treating them like part of the family! I am home full time so I can always be with your pet. I can do morning drop off any time after 7 and pick up at whatever time you need. I have a large yard with a 100ft dog runner. However if you or your dog are uncomfortable with the runner let me know and I can leash for bathroom breaks instead.
“I just came back from a long trip. It was a big pleasure to see Mason so happy and cheerful. I had to change my pick up dates a few times due to some uncertainty of the trip. Rebecca was so nice to help making the adjustments and make me feel real comfortable knowing my dog is in good hands. Mason loves his play time with a few dog buddies. I fully recommend you to visit Rebecca. You and your pet will both enjoy!”
