“Tanya watched Buck for 2 weeks while we were on vacation. Our dog loves playing with other dogs so this was a good environment for him, as he had lots of playmates! She was great about sending updates with pictures while we were away and was always super responsive to messages! We would recommend her to anyone needing to board their dog.”


“Roselyn was wonderful! I’ve never used Rover before and was nervous about leaving my boys with someone. She sent many pictures of my babies being spoiled and it made me feel so much better. By the end of my trip I was completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. It’s evident that she really cares about them. I believe Having them in a home environment with someone there to give them attention all day really made the difference of easing any stress they might have been under. We’ll definitely be using Roselyn’s services again!”


“Stephanie loved our two Bostons as her own while we were away for the weekend! She provided plenty of picture updates and responded quickly when we messaged her for any reason. Her dogs were great with out pups, and they came home worn out and well loved. We highly recommend Stephanie as a pet sitter!”


“When my dog is at Aurora‘s home, I don’t worry about the care that she’s going to receive. It’s always excellent and they generally seem to really like my dog. I recommend her highly. She does a great job.”


“Sasha is really the best, she was able to take my pup on short notice, sends lots of pics, and I akways know my dog is being well taken care of and she always comes home happy and in good condition, id highly reccomend Sasha as a sitter !!!”


“My dog, Honey Blu, had a wonderful experience with Keitel and his family. Keitel always kept me updated with pictures and texts on how well Honey Blu was doing under his care. Not only did he care for Honey Blu like she was his own, he also took the time to train her. Honey Blu came back home to with new skills, and as a happy pup! I feel secure with letting Keitel take care of my pet again, and I highly recommend Keitel to take care of your pet too.”


“Cheryl is just great, she treats your pup just like her own. She watched our older Shih Tzu and I could tell from the pictures she sent and text messages that Honey was doing great. Highly recommend her.”

“Our family pet was thoughtfully looked after. Dennis has a great set up for accommodating dogs. He’s also was very knowledgeable about dog behavior. We have already booked another stay while we go on vacation.”


About: Hi, I’m Calvin — a dedicated, trustworthy caregiver with over 20 years of experience in customer service, hands-on care roles, and community support. Growing up in a dog-loving household (we usually had 3 or 4 dogs at a time), I learned early on how important it is to respect animal behavior, provide structure, and manage energy — both theirs and ours. As a kid, I spent countless hours playing fetch, tug-of-war, and even basketball with my dogs. That love and respect for animals has only grown stronger over time. Now, as a parent, I’ve passed on that same companionship and responsibility to my children. We enjoy daily walks and playtime in our large fenced backyard with our pets — it’s a lifestyle rooted in patience, calmness, and care. In July 2025, I made the decision to offer full-time pet sitting services (early mornings to late evenings) so I could focus more on family and the kind of work I truly enjoy. I provide boarding, house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking — all with a professional yet personal touch. I’m also CPR & First Aid certified, with a calm demeanor that works well with anxious or high-energy pets. Whether your pet needs structured care, playful companionship, or just a dependable human to check in while you're away, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I pride myself on clear communication, cleanliness, and creating a safe, peaceful environment your pet can feel at home in. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry family member soon! My current work and family schedule permits me to work wide ranges of availability. I'm available weekdays and weekends with short notice. I'm available for in-home care, drop-in visits, dog walking, overnight stays, and boarding. I have a large fenced yard with 2 friendly dogs that have their own dog runs and kennel. The dogs will be allowed indoors and outdoors as the preference or needs changes.

Calvin F.
“I’ve known Calvin F. for several years, and I can confidently say he would be an exceptional pet sitter and dog walker. Calvin is incredibly reliable, attentive, and genuinely cares for the well-being of every animal he meets. He has a calm and friendly demeanor that animals naturally gravitate toward, and he treats pets with the same love and respect as if they were his own. Calvin is also highly responsible and communicates clearly, which makes him easy to trust with important tasks and routines. Whether it’s going for a walk, feeding on schedule, or just giving a pet some well-deserved attention and playtime, Calvin always goes above and beyond. I wholeheartedly recommend him for Rover. Pet parents can feel confident knowing their pets are in capable, caring hands.”
