About: I've had dogs in my home as long as I can remember. My dogs are my best friends. I can accommodate more than 1 dog if needed. 3 dogs from the same owner. I work a full-time job. I can board dogs from Friday night to Sunday afternoon. I have dogs of my own. They have their own room. Feed them on a schedule and let them play in the backyard on nice days. I have a fenced in back yard. I have dogs. I can separate them from other dogs if needed. Just let me know of any special instructions that I may need to accommodate.

My chihuahua and I haven't been a part in forever. When my family and I went on a one week trip, I knew I had to find the perfect dog sitter. My dog is picky and I was worried, but she was immediately comfortable at crystals house. She is so kind and attentive, and became best friends with my chihuahua. She was comfortable around everyone in the household and very well taken care of. Will certainly be using her services in the future and am beyond thankful for her and her family. Thank you SO much

About: I grew up on a farm, so I have spent most of my life caring for pets. I currently own one dog named Mackey. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and give them the attention they need. I work from home so my schedule is flexible and I can use that opportunity to provide plenty of walks and breaks as needed for your pet. My current dog is indoors. All pets staying at my home will be indoors with A/C and access to plenty of water, food and toys.

Christopher was very easy to communicate with and sent photos of my dogs throughout the week. He let me know when one of them didn’t seem to be eating normally and he was confident in handling it. My dogs came back happy and without issues.

About: First time booking on rover? Use my code to save $20! KENDRR12795 Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes and personalities. My journey started with my first pet, Frenchie, a toy poodle, followed by my family’s German Shepherd, Snoopy, and now I’m the proud dog mom to Jazmine, my adorable mini Dachshund and certified cutie patootie! I’m the go to pet sitter for friends and family, whether that means house sitting so pups can stay comfy in their own home, taking long walks, or hosting playdates to help burn off extra energy. Since I work from home, your fur baby will get plenty of attention throughout the day. Jazmine's and my daily routine includes regular walks, outdoor time to keep up with neighborhood happenings, and a few fun dance breaks (yes, really!). I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, so I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal schedule to make their stay as stress free as possible. When you book with me, I promise to care for your dog as if they were my own, and I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and videos along the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby! Pet care is already a seamless part of my daily routine. Since I work from home, I’m able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day rather than limiting care to mornings and evenings. During work hours, pups are typically with me in my home office or relaxing on the veranda, so they’re never left alone for long periods. Weekend care is just as flexible, allowing time for longer walks, playdates, and extra enrichment as needed. My day naturally includes regular walks, outdoor time to explore and stay engaged with the neighborhood, and interactive play (plus a few fun dance breaks!). I’m very mindful of maintaining each dog’s established routine, including feeding schedules, walk times, and any special care instructions, to help them feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. With a fenced-in yard and a friendly resident pup, dogs in my care get both companionship and a safe space to play. As an avid Rover user myself, I know how important it is to feel comfortable with your sitter and their home. I’d love to set up a meet and greet to make sure it’s a great fit for everyone.

Brenda is the ultimate dog nurturer. Loved her little pack (Lucy and Katy) and her setup, including a lovely fenced backyard. Our Chloe was calm and happy within minutes of arrival and totally peaceful when I picked her up. Chloe says thank you for the walks, Brenda. You are a pro!

Kristall is the absolute best!!!! I've never left any of my pets with a sitter and I was very nervous. Kristall answered all of my questions at our first meeting. I did a day care day to test things out before my trip. Otis had a great time and I no longer had any concerns with leaving him with Kristall. I was able to enjoy my vacation and received frequent updates and pictures. When I went to pick Otis up I don't think he wanted to leave. Thank you so much Kristall for spoiling my little dude!

Mary was phenomenal to say the least. This was my first time using Rover so I was a little nervous. She was so kind to share her home with our dog. She showed him constant love and attention and sent regular updates to me. She even sent him home with some extra toys! Selfishly I wish I could keep her on retainer if I could. Lol but I will absolutely rebook for my next trip! I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter!

We can't say enough good things about Brent and David. This was the first time our two, 8 1/2 year old Boxers have been away from us for 8 days. We had left them a day or two with our daughter in the past and through that experience, we discovered they don't eat for a day or two over separation anxiety and basically mope. Not the case here! These pups didn't miss a beat! Healthy appetite every day, plenty of exercise with walks and outdoor playtime, sofa lounging, treats, love, pets, full - hands-on attention and just happy. Our guilt and worry disappeared pretty rapidly after seeing the daily photos and video we received. We could not have dreamed or asked for better care of our fur babies. We can now take trips without concern and will always use Brent and David! Our dogs were loved. Highly recommend, A+, Five Star #happyfurbabies #BrentandDavid #Rover
