“Maellen was extremely patient and understanding with Odi and helped me feel at ease leaving him in someone elses home for the first time! She sent lots of photos and clearly gave him lots of love :)”
“Onrae had Oakley for the weekend and made she she ate and got her antibiotics! She’s the most picky eater but he got her to eat everyday and she came home happy. Thank you!”
“Gene was a fantastic sitter. She accommodated us by meeting us several times leading up to our stay. While Azula was with her, she kept us in the loop with pictures and excellent communication. I would recommend Gene to anyone.”
“Holly and Robert are amazing! They took such good care of our two dogs while we were gone. Both dogs were happy and well taken care of. We got multiple pictures of them playing and getting cuddles. We will definitely be using them again!!!”
“Misty was all that we could have wished for to take care of our precious 17 month old Beagle puppy. She made Buster a part of the family. He played with her other dogs, learned new skills, and received the affection he loves. I could tell right away that Misty was a dog person and knew how to communicate with our dog, and how to provide the best care. I also loved the photos and messages she sent every couple of days. I felt better seeing and hearing how Buster was in our absence. Thank you, Misty and family, human and canine!”
“Rosalia and her partner took great care of our puppy. She would send us updates and pics everyday. My pup was very comfortable with them and they him all the love they could. I would recommend them anytime.”
“Kaila is the BEST! When Ransom realizes what house we've pulles up to, he starts whimpering with excitement. He doesn't even look back as he dashes into the house! My confidence that he's being taken well care of allows me to enjoy my time away.”
“Sam is amazing! I was really nervous about leaving my pup with a stranger but as soon as she opened her door, all of my nerves faded. Oakley was immediately welcomed by the family and dogs. He made friends and Sam sent pictures and videos throughout his stay. This was way better than putting in a kennel and we will certainly be going back to Sam! ❤️”
“My puppy had a great time at Debbie's! She sent me pictures every day which helped me deal with our separation. She's obviously a very caring sitter and I will definitely use her next time I need a sitter.”
“Tarah is an awesome pet sitter! She is responsible, caring and intuitive in terms of knowing just what to do, emotionally and physically, when it comes to taking care of your pet. She has a lot of knowledge and experience with dogs of all ages. I felt like my dog was safe and well cared for in her hands. She gave regular updates and lots of photos during our trip which were reassuring and informative. Her location to the TJ Estuary and IB is ideal, as she can insure pets get a lot of fresh air and exercise. I am always nervous boarding our dog, but felt like he was safe and happy with Tarah. I would definitely use her services again and recommend her very highly!”
“Skillful with my Shepherd, and thoughtful with the process, Rita did an excellent job taking care of our boy and keeping us up-to-date daily with his activity. I would've never gotten any such thing with a kennel (jail). This was my first time using Rover and my family is thrilled!”
“Becky was a fantastic sitter! She was super responsive, a great communicator, and took very good care of our pup. She did a great job of asking questions, getting to know his routine, and ensuring that he would be comfortable, happy, and feel loved while at her house. We will definitely have Becky watch our dog again and will confidently recommend her to our friends!”
“Arman is like an extension of your family. He cared for my dog Bentley like he was his own dog. Took him for several walks, visits to see my daughter, cuddles in the couch and even a grooming appointment. He was SO extremely helpful. I would highly recommend Arman to anyone who needs pet sitting or care. 5 Stars!”
About: I have a lot of experience with dogs. Worked at animal humane for a couple of years. I Help my sister with her already established doggy daycare business currently. What's sets me apart from other sitters is I live in an apartment so I can only really watch one dog at a time. Or two dogs from same household. This is perfect for people who have dogs that either don't do well with other dogs, need extra attention, or maybe have medical issues and don't want to risk injury from other dogs knocking them down or what have you. I am also open for walks and possibly house sitting. My schedule is very flexible. I am a self employed glass artist currently. Spend a lot of time at home doing remote work for my art. I make my own schedule. So on the days I watch your pup I can spend a lot of time with it. I understand that people's pets are family. It's the same fore me. I take pet care very seriously. I will care for other people's pets as well as if they were my own. Tending to any required needs. I love spoiling the fur babies.
“Alireza was excellent with our 2 pups. He clearly has the ability to connect with dogs quickly and easily. When picking up our dogs, they we're very happy in his home and had the best time with his pup as well!”
“Absolutely fabulous! Emily took on our cat so that we could attend our daughter’s wedding. Emily kept us posted about how our cat was doing and took care of everything. An absolute lifesaver! Thank you Emily :)”
“Holly was very kind and communicated well from the start. Her home was very accommodating and met all of Dukes needs. She sent updates daily on him which was appreciated.”

Big Bend dog parents share their Rover experiences
Once again, we received excellent care from Paul and Ms Karina. We had a short notice travel opportunity and were lucky enough to join my husband. We were very lucky Paul and Ms Karina were available! They are so wonderful, we do not worry at all (or stress) knowing they are in excellent hands! Thank you!!!!!
Our dog had a great time during her week with Suzanne. I don't think she wanted to leave her new playmate Chaco! Great communication beforehand to establish the details of care, and I received updates and pictures throughout the week to assure us everything was going well. We would definitely use her again!
Ella is fantastic! We are so fortunate to have found her to watch my Tommy. I never have to worry about him when I’m away. Ella is a great communicator who always keeps me updated on his stay. She walks him every day and is very active with him. It’s such a relief to have found a reliable nurturing person to watch my pup.
Holly is THE best - she was so loving with our three dogs while we went to our daughter’s college graduation. No small task - as all three are different sizes, have different needs, and two are seniors. She handled it all like a champ and our dogs were so well taken care of. She also sent updates along the way and took them for walks - but most importantly she made sure they were comfortable and loved! We will be using Holly again!
Mira was so amazing with Frog. She was consistent with updates and photos so I felt confident that Frog was in the best hands. He had so much fun playing with Mira’s pets so I know he had a great time with them. Highly recommend, will be repeat clients for sure!
