“Lane was so great with my dog! He helped my puppy warm up to other dogs and him, and he had a great 3 day stay. Thank you for opening your home to Yuzu!!!”


“Another fun stay with Kristina, Eddie, and all their sweet pups! Lots of videos and pictures keeping us updated on what our babies were up to while we were away.”


“Sam had the best time with Jenny! Her family treated him with as much love as he gets at home. The updates we received made it obvious that Sam was in excellent hands.”


“I highly recommend Alyssa T. as a dog-sitter on Rover. She took in my cavachon Merry for a week over the Christmas holidays, and she and her family treated Merry like a princess! I received daily updates and photos which made me feel so at ease as I had never left Merry for so long before. I also received a short video of Merry and the family's dog playing, and I knew Merry was having a wonderful time!”


“Steve and Lisa provided many photos and videos during our pup’s stay. They have two dogs that are very dog and human friendly. They have LOTS of laying places and toys. We will contact them again when we need to board our dog again.”


“Heather and James really know what they are doing! They are both dog trainers and my dogs felt comfortable and safe. I felt secure in knowing that they knew a lot about rescues, and I appreciated that they kept my two dachshunds separated from the larger dogs. Communication was excellent as was response time.”


“Deborah was absolutely wonderful all the way around! I felt so comfortable leaving my big fur baby with her. She sent pictures and updates, and treated him like her own. I’m grateful he was able to play in a wide variety of settings, sleep comfortably, and even come home ready for a nap! This was my first time leaving him with someone, and I will absolutely come to Deborah first for the second time around. I feel comfortable using Rover as a whole starting out with such a positive experience. I would recommend her to anyone!”


“Heather was a fantastic sitter for my girl, Fern. There was great communication, lots of updates, and great care and attention was given. I highly recommend Heather!”


About: I have two dogs personally and have been a dog sitting for friends & family for many years. Whether your pet needs structured playtime, quiet companionship, or a little help getting around, I’ve got it covered! I work full time from home so I am always home to help with whatever your dog needs may be. I take my personal dogs on multiple walks per day during my breaks and will be happy to provide the same care for your dogs. I have a back deck with a gate that is completely closed in that my dogs personally LOVE! We sit out there and sunbathe and watch the birds. I also take them on multiple walks per day to make sure we are getting plenty of exercise. In the evenings and on weekends we like to venture out for a hike or go to the local dog park.


“Kayla was amazing and very easy to work with! My doggies had a room for themselves and a nice fenced in yard to play! Came back home very happy! Thanks Kayla for working with us!”


“Joyce was an absolute pleasure to work with. My vacation was last minute, so I was extremely grateful to find the Rover app and website, but finding Joyce was even more of a godsend. I could tell right off that she loves dogs, has a passion for dog sitting, and strives to make both animals and their owners as happy as possible. She provided periodic updates, images as well as a video, and set my mind at ease. Thank you very much Joyce, I really appreciate it.”


“We had an excellent experience with Aimee! She was friendly, attentive, and communicative; she sent me loads of photos so I could check in with my dog, Duncan,while I was out of town. For his part, Duncan had so much fun getting to play in Aimee's yard with her very sweet dog, Max. He also got loads of cuddle time every day! I would definitely book Aimee again to sit Duncan the next time I travel.”


“I couldn’t recommend Erica enough! I had a last minute out of town trip, and she was happy to accommodate. When we met, it was clear she genuinely loves animals and knew exactly how to care for my pup. She provided regular updates and pictures of all the fun Norman and the other pups were having. He is a high energy dog, and her place was the perfect spot for him to get out and exercise! She truly went above and beyond and I will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you, Erica, for taking care of Norman while I was away!”



“Cheyanne took great care of my 11 year old lab. Sent me pictures and kept me updated while I was away missing my baby. Definitely helped ease my mind and she always returned my messages within an hour. I could tell my dog was happy to be there and she loved playing with the other dogs. 10/10 would recommend Cheyanne”


“Olive, my dog, had a great experience! I can tell she was well exercised and cared for. Destiny is a complete sweetheart! Will be rebooking in the future.”
