“Kate and her family took wonderful care of our Poppy and treated her like one of their own. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone! Just make sure your dog is cat friendly.”

“Mike was really kind and communicative, he made sure to check in with us throughout our trip. It was nice knowing that ruckus was being cared for as if he was one of theirs!”

“Yulia took great care of my Barron and always responded quickly to all messages. She was also so kind and flexible when my pickup time was delayed due to traffic! I would recommend Yulia to others. Thank you!”

“Thalia cared for my dog, Cody, overnight for the first time. Everything went very well. He is an anxious little guy, but based on her photos and feedback, I believe it was a good experience for Cody. Thalia sent me lots of photos and updates which I appreciated. I would have her care for Cody again. Thank you Thalia.”

“Luke has been absolutely wonderful with our dog Murphy. This was our pup’s second stay with him, and it is clear how much he genuinely cares. Our dog loves him and always comes home happy, relaxed, and well looked after. Luke communicates clearly, sends updates, and creates a welcoming environment. It gives tremendous peace of mind knowing our dog is safe and enjoying his time while we are away. Highly recommend Luke for anyone seeking a reliable and compassionate sitter.”

“Michelle was awesome! She would constantly give us updates while she watched our dog Ginger with pictures and texts. Ginger was so happy while she was in Michelle’s care. We are so grateful she was able to watch her and 10/10 would do again! Thank you again Michelle! :D”

About: I’ve been a pet owner to both cats and dogs since childhood, and animals have always been an important part of our family. Our beloved black Lab, Bo, and shepherd mix, Bayou, recently passed away, and we’re looking for a meaningful way to honor their memory. We’ve used Rover for years with great experiences, and now we’d love to open our home to care for your dog the same way others cared for ours. We have experience giving medication, supporting senior dogs, and making sure every pup feels comfortable and at home. Our daughters, ages 8 and 10, are gentle, responsible, and excited to give your dog plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. Caring for animals is truly a family effort here. Since losing Bo and Bayou, we’ve been looking for a positive way to honor their memory and welcoming new pups into our home feels like the perfect way to do that. We’d be honored to care for your dog and treat them like part of our family. We currently work full-time outside the home. I am a teacher that has school vacation weeks off and some long weekends. We can watch your dog during the weeks we are working but some days they would be let out by my father in law. We treat all dogs as if they are a member of our family. If your dog is on medication of any kind, we have experience with administering it and getting them to take it.
About: Hi! I’m Jessica, a professional biologist with a lifelong passion for animals. My love for all creatures began in childhood and grew even stronger during my many years as a Scout, where I learned to observe and respect nature with a careful and attentive eye. For me, being outdoors and connecting with the environment is essential. I’ve always shared my life with pets, including both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy the company of all kinds of animals. By combining my technical background in biology with the hands-on experience of a long-time pet owner, I provide dedicated, responsible, and heartfelt care for your furry friends! Profile Highlights: Background: Biologist Experience: Years of experience living with and caring for dogs and cats. Specialty: Former Scout with a deep-rooted connection to nature. Approach: Attentive, observant, and passionate about all species. Hi! I’m Jessica, a biologist and lifelong animal lover. Currently, I am a stay-at-home mom, which gives me great flexibility and full availability to visit and care for your pet in the environment where they feel safest: their own home. Since I am available throughout the day, especially while my children are at school, I can offer calm, unhurried visits tailored to your pet's needs. My priority is to maintain your pet's routine, providing companionship, feeding, and plenty of love—particularly for cats, which are my absolute favorite! You can have peace of mind knowing that a dedicated professional with a biologist’s attentive eye is looking after your furry friend with all the care they deserve. I believe that every animal is unique, which is why my approach is centered on patience and observation. As a biologist, I understand that each pet has its own pace for adapting and building trust. I always respect their boundaries, offering affection and interaction at a speed that makes them feel comfortable and safe. Beyond your pet's well-being, I am fully committed to your home's integrity. I provide care with great love and strictly follow all the rules and guidelines you establish. Whether it’s feeding schedules, specific instructions, or home etiquette, you can rest assured that both your pet and your home are in responsible, professional, and deeply caring hands.
“Krystyna and Sara were AMAZING. They took care of my 2 dogs for a long weekend when I had to go away for a family funeral. I was already anxious about leaving them with someone new and they went above and beyond. They sent pictures and messages throughout the day. One of my dogs was having a paw issue with his nail and they took care of him and all the needs that came along with it. I will be recommending them to everyone I know and will for sure book with them again!!”

“Jennifer was lovely! Very caring and sent us lovely photos and reassurance that Goose was being extremely well cared for. We would absolutely book with her again. Thank you Jennifer!”

“Xiuping is an amazing and responsive dog sitter! She sent me lots of pictures and messages throughout the stay, showing how well my dog was being taken care of. This definitely set my mind at ease, knowing and seeing that my dog was having a great time with her family. Dog care instructions were followed very well and she was able to accommodate my last minute requests. I will absolutely be recommending Xiuping to my friends and will have her and her family watch my dog again!”


“Carol and her family are lovely! They took such great care of Stevie. I got a lot of pictures, great communication, updates and was relieved that Stevie was in such good hands. I highly recommend Carol.”

About: My lifelong love of animals has been shaped by caring for a wide range of species and by growing up in different parts of the world. This exposure fostered a deep curiosity for animal behavior, individual personalities, and the subtle ways animals communicate their needs and love. I bring this observant, thoughtful approach to every pet and home I care for. I am home most of the time—4 out of 7 days I stay home all day, and on the other days I leave briefly but return often enough to walk, feed, and give attention to your pets. I love keeping a consistent routine so pets feel safe and happy. I prioritize your pets’ safety and comfort at all times. Dogs are always on leash when outside, and I use crates as needed when they are outdoors or resting. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks in the neighborhood or nearby parks while keeping them safe and under supervision. My main priorities are adaptability and flexibility to the pet and the parent's routine, and wants.
“Donna and Roland were so welcoming to our dog, Sophie! Donna was very kind and responsive throughout the whole booking process and sent us pictures while we were away. We feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful couple to care for our dog!”

“Laura took such great care of our dogs and was very kind to accommodate us on short notice! She truly “gets” dogs and her understanding of how to introduce dogs to one another insured that ours had a peaceful visit!”

“Jennifer was great, gave constant communication and was very flexible with our changing schedule. We loved getting pictures and updates while we were away, and Kiki came home happy. Thank you Jennifer!”


“The booking for Gojo’s stay was very last minute and Sergio was able to accommodate us. Gojo had a blast at Sergio’s over the weekend and I would definitely rebook with Sergio. Thanks so much!”

About: I love animals of all kinds, but my favorite domesticated animal is a dog. I am known by a lot of my clients and people I know personally as “The Dog Whisperer” I have 2 fur babies of my own who I love more than anything on this green earth. When I am taking care of your fur baby or babies, you can be away peacefully, knowing that they are being loved, cared for, and treated as if they were my own. I say “hi” to dogs before I say “hi” to people. I work 35 minutes from home. I have every other weekend off. I do have to work most holidays but with planning it will work out. If I’m in your home, I will go by your house rules and go with your dog(s) routine the best I can when I am not working. When I am in my own home, I just ask that you bring whatever it is you would use in a day for your furry baby. Leash, harness, food etc. no need for a crate as I have a couple here if needed.

Our dog, Nora, stayed with Stacey and her family for a week while we were away, and we could not have been happier with the care that Nora received! We received twice daily updates, with pictures of Nora, and we could tell that she was having a great time. Stacey went above and beyond, giving Nora so much personal attention and affection. It was evident that Nora had become attached to Stacey when I picked Nora up at the end of the week. Nora ran to me and was very happy to see me, but she also ran back to Stacey, offering affection to her as well...torn between me and her new Mom! We are so grateful we found Stacy, and will definitely be calling on her again!
Amanda and her family took wonderful care of our puppy, as if she were their own! Amanda was incredibly thoughtful about Nelly’s care, including her comfort and emotional well-being while we were away. Amanda’s friendly pup was great company for Nelly as well. Grateful we could truly enjoy our vacation knowing Nelly was in the best hands at Amanda’s!

I am so glad we found such a wonderful family to watch Sophie while we were away for a few days. Our family friend who watches her was away and Joseph was quick to respond with a meet and greet request before booking. He sent regular updates with photos of Sophie and his two little boys were also very affectionate and good with Sophie. I would be happy to book Joseph again to watch Sophie when needed.

Gabriel have done an excellent job taking care of Leo when I needed his services. He usually let's me know about Leo's behavior and that make me feel comfortable knowing that he wants to know more about how to treat Leo. I am glad to have found Gabriel. He is someone I can trust when I need to leave Leo with s

Vanessa is wonderful! She watched our dog for over a week and sent us pictures and videos every day of his stay! She gave him toys to play with, frequent walks, bones to chew and her own dog to play with! And, when our flight home was delayed by 6 hours, she was super gracious and kept him an extra night without any issues. She’s very friendly, kind and a true dog person. I highly recommend her!!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience having Irene and her husband watch Cooper for a full week! From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he was in wonderful hands. Irene was attentive, communicative, and genuinely caring — treating Cooper like one of her own. What really stood out was a small but incredibly thoughtful gesture: she noticed Cooper’s leash was worn out and bought him a brand new one, without us even asking. That kind of initiative and attention to detail says everything about the level of care she provides. We came home after a week away to a happy, well-loved pup and couldn’t recommend Irene more highly.
