“Stephanie and her family took such wonderful care of my Max! I’d been turned down by other sitters that weren’t comfortable that Max is a pit bull, and I was nervous as I’d never left him for any length of time. She sent me pictures and videos of him snuggling with her family, going on walks and playing in her back yard. I’m so glad we found her, and will definitely be requesting her services again.”


“My Millie girl had such a wonderful time here, I don’t think she wanted to leave! Candace and her husband were both so loving and patient with her and sent me lots of videos and daily updates. We will definitely be going back— it was like a vacation for Millie!”


“Laura was great. She kept us informed with text messages and photos. It was the first time we were separated from our dog. Laura alleviated all our fears. We’ll definitely use her again!”


“Jane was great to work with! She was accommodating to our schedule and welcomed our pup with open arms. We received daily updates and felt at ease when she watched Bergen for four days. I would highly recommend her to others!”


“Summer did a great job with the my dogs. She has cats and dogs of her own and my dogs were so interested in their new friends that they almost didn't notice me leaving. I'll definitely use her again!”


“My pup had a wonderful time! Shirley made a point to send at least one picture of him a day, though usually I got multiple updates throughout the day! Little things like that let you know just how much Shirley cares about dogs, and she understands wanting to know what your pup is up to even when you can’t be with them.”


“She could not have been more amazing! Constant pictures and communication! I was very nervous bc my dog has never been around other animals, She made me feel secure and he was treated like a king. I will use her every time I need a sitter.”


“This was our first time doing an overnight Rover and Sandra was great. She sent tons of updates and pics. Our girl can be really shy but took to Sandra and her dogs right away. Sandra has a great energy about her. If we’re ever traveling her way again we’d 100% trust her to watch our girl again and we know Tefiti would be happy to se ever againn”


“Good flexibility and accomodating.”


About: I have been around animals since I was a little girl. Being raised on a 160 acre farm that includes.... horses, mules, dogs, cats and goats. I know animals are not just our “pets” but they are our family! I know what it’s like to be away at work or vacation and concerned if your dog is okay. Rest assured they would be in caring hands with me! I love to send photos/updates. I currently work full time Monday-Friday, but I’m available in the evenings (5pm to 9pm) and anytime on the weekends to help care for your doggos! I own my home and live in a subdivision, I do have a backyard but it is currently not fenced in. For this reason I’ve been prioritize more drop in visits for people and staying at your home instead of mine. Although with the right situation/pet, animals are welcome to stay at my home!

“Christina K. was splendid! My fur baby was treated with care and I was updated during the stay at the perfect frequency. If you are ever in need of the perfect boarder, Christina is the perfect choice.”


“I'm very happy with the dog sitting service provided by Brenda. She did an amazing job looking after my Itsy Bitsy. Her home includes a front yard, which allowed my dog to enjoy the outdoors safely. She has a genuine love for animals and treated my dog as if it were her own. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a caring and responsible dog sitter."”


“She was amazing with my dog. He had the best time and she kept me up to date with pictures and how was doing each day. They were even very accommodating when I was running 30 minutes late as well. I would absolutely book with her again if she is available.”


About: Taken care of animals since I was a kid. I absolutely love animals. They need someone to stand up for them and a voice willing to protect them. I'm a Army Veteran who is looking to keep busy. Hi, im here to take care care and support your loved one. I know what it means to have an animal as part of your family. I can take care of your animal as I do with my 2 Chihuahuas , with care and love. They will be well taken care of. I'm here to provide the best care as possible

“Brittany was wonderful with my cat! She was also very kind to accommodate to my needs of extending services at last minute. I recommend her to anyone. She is such a sweet person.”


“Josie took this booking REALLY last minute (like 6 am day of) after we got delayed flying home. She stopped in before she went to work and made sure everyone had food and was okay. Her flexibility to fit this into her schedule was wonderful and helped us out so much. We love her taking care of our cats and the cats love her even more!”


“We were nervous leaving our elderly small dog with a new person. Brittani took very good care of Gabby. She was even flexible with us picking up our little one late because our flights home got delayed. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone with small dogs.”


About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and currently have four large dogs – three of my own and one foster. I also volunteer with local animal rescues and spend many Fridays at the Dog Pound, giving all the animals love, walks, vaccinations, and sometimes even a trip to my home (I’m always joking that I’m one dog away from a divorce – but he knew what he was getting into!) Joining the Rover community lets me share my passion for caring with other pet owners. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family members, and I’m here to provide them with the love and attention they deserve. I’ll make sure they’re happy, well cared for, and keep you updated with plenty of pictures to give you peace of mind! I’m currently staying home with my babies so I will have plenty of time to love yours! Don’t be afraid to ask about my schedule! I have a full fenced in yard. Two of my dogs are inside. One roams freely during the day with a doggy door to the outside fenced in yard. One is kenneled during the day. Both are kenneled at night. One is outside full time (unless it’s freezing cold and I have to force him inside). I also have one large kennel outside where my foster dog stays most of the time. All dogs are up to date on vaccines and receive monthly flea tick and heart guard meds. As for your home, I’m up for a meet and greet depending on what you need!
