“Liliana was excellent in taking care of our dog on short notice. Frequent walks and updates on how he was doing were punctual and informative. A truly caring boarder that I highly recommend.”

About: My husband and I have a cattle dog mix, Arley, who we rescued as a puppy. Before Arley came along, we had a sweet dog named Izzy who we loved and cared for right to the end. I understand the patience, consistency, and care that goes into raising and caring for a dog. I love dogs and enjoy getting to know each one’s unique personality and needs. I’m reliable, attentive, and will treat your dog with the same care and attention I give my own. I have also provided care for other dogs regularly over the past four years, giving me some valuable experience caring for dogs that are not my own. Your dog will be in caring, responsible hands with me (and my husband). 🐾 ✨ New to Rover? Get $20 off with my code: https://www.rover.com/sit/lindae01033 I recently left full-time work to find something with more flexibility and balance. Pet care is a great fit for me right now, and I have plenty of availability to provide reliable, attentive care. I enjoy having the flexibility to spend time with pets and make sure they get the care and attention they need. I will provide safe, attentive, and loving care for every pet. For walks, I will focus on keeping dogs comfortable, secure, and engaged while giving them the exercise and attention they need. For dogs that we care for in our home, we have a large fenced in yard that is great for dogs. I will take the time to get to know each dog and follow their individual routines, needs, and preferences. I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own dog, and I believe clear communication with pet parents is an important part of building trust. Please note that scheduling a Meet & Greet prior to a first time booking is mandatory for me - I want to be sure that the booking is a good fit for both of us (and our pups).
“Emily is awesome. We've had our dog with her twice and he loves going there. He's made buddies with her sweet dog, Lemon, and Emily takes such great care of him. I am so comfortable leaving Marty with her and Hector!”

About: I absolutely love dogs. All dogs, period. I have a deep understanding of each dog's unique needs, quirks, and preferences, and I make sure to give a tailored experience that goes beyond routine tasks. I strive to create a home away from home for your dogs and make sure they are comfortable as well as you. I currently work in the early afternoons with two days off during the week with full availability. I am an early bird and can be there for your dog as early as 6:30am until about 12:00pm. Safe Space: Designate a specific area or room for the pet, providing them with a sense of security. Exercise and Playtime: Engage in regular play sessions and take your pet for walks or provide a secure outdoor space for them to explore. Social Interaction: Spend quality time with your pet to prevent loneliness and anxiety. Provide toys and enrichment activities to keep them mentally stimulated. Emergency Plan: Be prepared for emergencies by having a first aid kit and knowing the location of the nearest veterinary clinic.

“Jonas was very communicative and persistent. Juni was playing hard to get and hiding from Jonas on his first visit. It was her first time having a complete stranger come to the house to walk her and she is a bit leery of strangers. I very much appreciated Jonas working through that challenge so we can leave her again in the future!!”

“Andrea was great with our dog Abbey. She sent us updates and photos every day and we could see from the photos that Abbey was relaxed and enjoying herself. Andrea is friendly, kind and thoughtful. We will definitely have Andrea sit for Abbey again in the future.”

“Alicia was incredible through and through with taking care of Ranger. She was attentive to his needs and once he eventually settled in, it was a smooth ride for everyone involved. She kept contact through his stay and kept me up to date with everything going on. He went to the dog park a lot and got along well with her dog and others who stayed there. I am very thankful for her help. Definitely going to be using her services in the future.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds since I was 10. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to check in on, feed, walk, and play with their pets. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to follow each pet’s individual routine and needs. I’m currently balancing caregiving responsibilities while building a new business, which gives me a flexible schedule. I have availability for weekday walks, drop-ins, and visits, as well as weekend boarding with advance scheduling. I’m able to give pets plenty of individual attention and care. I have a small fenced-in yard and one friendly dog who can provide companionship for pets who enjoy being around other dogs. I provide a safe, calm, and caring home environment and will follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, and specific care instructions. I’m also comfortable with crating when needed and understand how important it is to treat every pet with patience, attention, and care.
“We had such a wonderful experience with Julia! From the moment we met her, I could tell that she really understands dogs and knows how to read their behavior. She balances warmth and sensitivity with confident, grounded leadership, so she clearly knows how to set appropriate boundaries and make dogs feel secure without being harsh or overbearing. She was effortlessly attentive and tuned in to my girl Cedar’s needs during our meet & greet, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Her dog, Daisy, is such a sweet and gentle being as well. I’m so grateful my pup had such a good and safe doggie friend while I was away! Julia communicated through thoughtful little updates, anecdotes, pics, and vids, so I knew how Cedar was doing. She also went above and beyond by taking her on extra-special walks and giving her plenty of fun, enriching time outside. I’m very particular about who I leave my dog with, and I would absolutely trust Julia with her again. I feel really lucky to have found her!”

“Absolutely terrific experience! My puppy and I both felt right at home during our meet and greet. Nicole is wonderful and makes things very easy. The family has a really cool cockapoo who was wonderful to my own cockapoo and I’m sure showed her a great week. Nicole sent photos every day and I could see how happy my Scout looked and it eased my mind. I wasn’t worried one bit about Scout all week and I highly recommend this Rover family. I feel as if Scout had a mini-vacation and a very good week. What more could I ask for?”


“I am so glad that I found Susan to take care of my dog Thule, while I was gone for 4 nights. I am pretty sure that my Thule thought she was the one on vacation! Susan and Craig made Thule feel secure and comfortable and treated her like their own. I enjoyed all the pictures they sent of parts of Thule’s day. I now feel comfortable to go on trips. Thank you!!!”

“Tony was really great to work with from the start. Super communicative, helpful, and easy to trust. My little dog was sitted for 9 full days. He kept regular communication, really great photos and pics! A real pleasure to know that our dog was in great hands with Tony & his fellow dogs. Will definitely use him again in the future. Thank you Tony!”


About: Although I am long distance from my fur best friends right now, I’ve grown up caring for dogs my entire life, including senior dogs and pups with disabilities. I also raised a rambunctious yellow Lab puppy on my own, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages, energy levels, and personalities. I believe every dog deserves patience, love, and attentive care, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. As a college student, I’m looking to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely love—caring for animals. My class schedule is very flexible, which gives me plenty of time to provide your pet with the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, sticking to a routine, or simply keeping them company while you’re away, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my everyday life, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. My home has a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and plenty of space to relax indoors. There is almost always someone home to provide attention, companionship, and care, so your pet will rarely be left alone. I am a caring, responsible household and will treat your pet like a member of the family while they’re in my care.

About: I’ve been a pet parent for as long as I’ve been alive. I’ve taken care of cats, fostered kittens, bearded dragons, and I currently own a 10 year old boxer mix. I’ve been trusted by family and friends to take care of their fur babies and treat them with the most dignity! I’d love to meet yours! I work in the hospitality industry, so I have flexible hours within the week. I typically work from 7am-3pm, and come home at 12pm daily. I have a spacious apartment to house your pet as well as a balcony for fresh air. I do not have a yard, however I do live near multiple dog parks.

“I had a great experience! Remy was very well taken care of, and I really appreciated getting lots of pictures and updates while I was away. Communication was great, and anytime there was a question about Remy, I was contacted right away. It made me feel very comfortable knowing he was in good hands. I would definitely book again! 🐾😊”

About: I have had a dog since I was five years old, so dogs are a big part of my life. I love dogs very much, and growing up I was responsible for walking and feeding my dog every day. I believe that dogs are part of the family and should be well cared for. Therefore, I will take care of your pet as if he or she were my own. I worked in a veterinary office for over a year. Because of this, I have a lot of experience with different breeds of dogs. During my time at the vet, I helped to keep the dogs calm during visits and walked them at night when they had to stay overnight. I will take very good care of your pet and will be available regularly. I have a lot of experience with animals, and I will show them love, respect, and care. Additionally, my parents' have had a dog with severe epilepsy, so I have gained first hand experience administering drugs to dogs, and to remaining calm throughout stressful situations such as seizures. --- He tenido un perro desde que tenía cinco años. Entonces, los perros son un gran parte de mi vida. My encanta los perros, y paseaba y alimentaba a mi perro todos los días. Creo que los perros son parte de la familia y deben estar bien atendidos. Por eso, cuidaré de su mascota como si fuera mía. Trabajé en una oficina veterinaria por más de un año. Debido a esto, tengo mucha experiencia con diferentes razas de perros. Ayudé a mantener a los perros tranquilos durante las visitas y a caminar cuando pasean la noche en la oficina de veterinaria. Cuidaré muy bien de su mascota y estaré disponible regularmente. Tengo muchísimo experiencia con animales, puede estar seguro de que seré responsable con su perro.

Jonas was very communicative and persistent. Juni was playing hard to get and hiding from Jonas on his first visit. It was her first time having a complete stranger come to the house to walk her and she is a bit leery of strangers. I very much appreciated Jonas working through that challenge so we can leave her again in the future!!

Jessica (and her dog Sophie) were a perfect match for our dog Maple! This was our first time using rover and ever boarding any of our dogs and Jessica made us feel at ease. Our dog was exhausted afterwards from so much playing (Maple almost seemed a little depressed when we got home because she wasn’t with her new friend Sophie).

Madeline was AMAZING with our dogs! We recently adopted a second dog and at the last minute Madeline was so accommodating and added her to our booking. She took notes during our meet and greet which was so professional. She updated us twice a day very consistently with lots of pictures and how the dogs were doing. Our dogs looked so happy that I don’t think they even missed us! We loved Madeline so much and are most definitely going to book with her again :)

Nicole was amazing with our 2 dogs- ages 5 and 10. The older one even developed an upset stomach while she was there and Nicole took amazing care of her and kept us in the loop. She was a great communicator and very proactive. I would leave my dogs with her anytime!

Della was absolutely wonderful! This was the first time in about two years that my husband and I had both been away from our two dogs at the same time, so finding someone we felt comfortable with was really important to us. She did an amazing job caring for both our high-energy 3.5-year-old Lab and our older pup, who has a more complicated routine with lots of medications and special needs. Della was incredibly attentive, kept us updated, and sent just the right amount of photos so we could enjoy our trip knowing our boys were in great hands. She truly gave us so much peace of mind, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We would absolutely trust her with our boys again and highly recommend her!

Maggie was awesome taking care of our two fur babies for a multiple week stay. She sent us pictures and updates to let us know how they were doing. Our dogs seemed very comfortable and relaxed with her and getting the care and attention they need. We had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend her and book with her again.

This was a great experience. Thank you Emily for being so flexible with a last minute booking! Emily took our high-energy dog on a walk the same night after we dropped her off and the next morning so she would feel more comfortable. Nyla came back seeming like she did well. Thanks a lot!

Sean and Kim took wonderful care of my dog, Dakota, for two and a half weeks while my husband and I were out of town. Dakota has anxiety issues and they were very patient and caring with her, making her feel at home in their very dog-friendly house. Dakota enjoyed the company of their dog, Denver, and the other dogs who visited. She also loved being able to go on walks every day. Sean and Kim are very knowledgeable and experienced dog sitters. After the meet and greet I felt very confident that they would take great care of my girl and they certainly did. Dakota settled in after a few days and was very comfortable with them. I am very grateful to have found Sean and Kim and wish I had met them sooner. They are terrific!!

Clover was the best dog sitter we could’ve asked for while we were away for 10 days. She was heaven sent!! She took care of my 2 Labs as if they were her own. Will definitely be using her again and again!! She sent pictures of the pups while we were away, and kept us updated the whole time. Couldn’t recommend Clover enough!!!
