“Leigh did a great job in our first visit with our older dog Harley. She was communicative and careful with his care. We were very satisfied.”


“Eileen was AMAZING with our dog Charlie! She sent lots of photos and commentary on how he was doing during his 5 day stay with him. She took him on private walks, gave him lots of play time in her yard and played games with him to keep him busy (and even let him sleep on her bed!). She was also very responsive throughout his stay, accommodating to us in our drop off/pick up times and very knowledgable about dogs in general. We will definitely have Charlie board with Eileen again in the future! She's a true animal lover!”


“It’s always hard to leave our buddy, but Indy was in great hands with Mary. Great, daily communication - including updates on a sensitive ear - and pics. Bonus: he was all tired out (in a good way) after having furry pals to play with. Thanks so much for being a home away from home!”



“Michelle was the first non-family dogsitter we’ve ever used and wow, she was awesome with our 2 geriatric dogs. She asked questions if she had them and even nursed one back to health after a torn toenail. Michelle sent multiple pictures daily and always sent a recap of the previous night. I cannot recommend Michelle enough. Our family will definitely use her service again. ?❤️?”

“Kyle was a great sitter for our cavapoo. He sent us pictures while we were away and kept us informed about what Buddy was doing and what he was feeling. We were smiling and laughing at Kyle's comments and at the pics he sent. We could enjoy our vacation knowing that Buddy is well taken care of. We will continue to book with Kyle anytime we are out of town. thank you so much!”


“Judy was absolutely wonderful to work with for our dog Simba. We felt comfortable and relaxed to leave him for an extended time for the first time. We could also tell that Simba really enjoyed his time with Judy and Bill. They made him feel right at home, and took such thoughtful and attentive care of him!”


“Cara sent pictures and updates as to how Daisy was doing at her first visit to her home. She looked content and relaxed in the pictures that were sent. Daisy will be visiting Cara & Petunia in the future. Thanks for taking great care of her.”



“Kimberly took great care with our small poodle while we went on an extended vacation. We received daily updates and photos. She came home happy and healthy. We highly recommend Kimberly!”


“Tatiana is the absolute best sitter we have worked with. She provided regular updates with pictures and videos and took excellent care of our two dogs. Tatyana showed them lots of attention and care. Will definitely be working again with Tatyana in the future!”


“Undram was great! She provided regular updates and was always very responsive. Our dog was obviously in good hands and we plan to use her services in the future.”


“Allis was very attentive and verified Ollie’s requirements/habits upon arrival. She also sent a couple photo/video updates throughout the day of Oliver playing with her kids and their family dog. He honestly had a lot of fun. You’re not going to find better care on Rover. Thank you! 🙏🏻”


“Afina was super accommodating and responsive. She took great care of my cat Beans who felt right at home in Afina’s apartment!!”


About: I have taken care of many breeds of dogs, including ones needing behavioral training. I am always living with some type of animal and have 2 spoiled cats of my own! I am currently working part time. Feel free to reach out and we can figure out a schedule that works for both you and me! My career has been husbandry of a variety of animals, therefore it is of the utmost importance to me that an animal feels safe and happy in their environment in order to thrive.

“Balaji took really great care of our dog, sending photos everyday with updates. We have already used Balaji three times in a row and with each stay, can see that my dog is happy and having fun!”


“Yamile was very nice and took good care of Leo. She was always quick to respond to our messages. She was also very accommodating when we had some last minute changes. Only thing I would say was missing was she did not send us any updates until we asked. She did not send any pictures too.”


“Xiaolin is a great sitter! She’s watched our dog twice now when we’ve travelled out of town. She is communicative and kind. We’d absolutely recommend her!”


“Pick up and drop off were so easy with Diana! She sent videos and pictures of our dog which we appreciated. He was very happy when we picked him up!”


“I have been so scared to leave Oreo with someone especially with him having so much separation anxiety with us leaving on top of some medical issues happening so soon to our vacation date but Oreo loved being with her! From our initial meet & greet to all the photos and updates she sent me while i was out of the country. From walks to her putting him in a doggy stroller ruby was fantastic— will definitely keep her in mind for future trips !”


“Laura and Vladimir were wonderful! They are so warm and true dog lovers. They took such good care of our puppy. They sent pictures and updates everyday. We will definitely use them again! Can’t say enough positive things about them. Highly recommend.”


About: We have a half acre, fenced in yard. Perfect for zoomies and activity to make sure your dog is kept active and not cooped up all day. We work from home so we will be able to attend to the needs of your dog. They will be let out plenty of times to run around our fenced in back yard. We have two dogs, a labradoodle and a corgi who love to play. Our fenced in back yard is the perfect size to allow them to get a full exercise every day.
