“This was a wonderful first Rover experience. My dog seemed happy and healthy upon her return and Julie probably regular communication and quick responses. She has a nice property with friendly dogs. Will definitely use again.”
“Brigitta provided a great and welcoming home for my fur babies. Anyone who has had huskies knows how challenging they can be with such high energy and propensity to escape. My dogs absolutely loved spending a weekend at Brigitta's home with her children and dogs. I will be bringing my beloved pups back anytime I may need a sitter!”
“Asialee, Jonathan and family are amazing with my senior dog Lily. I love the feedback I receive and they are so kind and gentle I have every confidence in leaving Lily in their care. This is my second time using this family and would highly recommend them if you ever need someone to trust with your fur-baby.”

“Carmen is amazing. I cannot say enough good things about her. She made me feel at ease dropping my dog off with her. I've never boarded or left my dog with someone I didnt know. Carmen made the whole process easy and smooth!”
“Arshjot gave such great care to my doggie while I was away for the weekend. Drop off and pick up was easy, she communicated with me throughout my dog’s stay with her and I felt totally at ease that he was in good care. I would definitely contact Arshjot again for dog sitting in the future!”
“Ryan offered an amazing stay for our Ozzie! Consistent updates and photos allowed us to ease into our day without worry. Seeing how comfortable our Ozzie was in his care made all the difference for us! Ozzie would be happy and lucky to have more time with Ryan! Thanks again for taking care of our Ozzie Bear!”
“Rochelle was quick to respond and professional from the start of communication to pickup time. Our minds were at ease as soon as we met her. Our big dogs loved her backyard and came home happy and tired! We would definitely book again and recommend her to friends.”
“Alexandra was amazing! My work schedule changed last minute and she was very flexible and quick to reply to messages making the last minute change smooth and stress-free. She sent updates with photos regularly and my dog was super happy in her care and loved her dog Katara.”
“Denise went above and beyond to make my anxious little girl comfortable. Poppy is a particular pup! Denise ensured that she was safe, healthy and happy. I can't say enough great things about Denise. I was able to relax knowing she was in amazing hands.”
“This was our third time having Nikhil care for our dog Maddie, when we were on a short, 2-day trip. Nikhil absolutely loves animals, and Maddie gets so excited to see him. Nikhil sends updates and photos, and has excellent communication skills. He is polite, friendly and caring. We couldn't ask for a better dog sitter, and Maddie looks forward to her next stay with him.”
“My French bull dog has such a good time with Shawn's Beagle. He gets lots of exercise and love. Shawn also keeps me updated with pictures and messages so I can see how my dog is doing.”
“Amazing! Gabriella was the best with Remus. Sent us lots of updates and pictures and really put our minds at ease while we were gone. Remus came back so happy and exhausted from all his fun adventures. Thank you again for being such an amazing dog sitter :) looking forward to seeing you both again :)”

About: As a devoted cat “owner” for over 17 years, I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routines, and needs. I offer flexible visit times to fit your schedule and your cat’s comfort. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, I make sure your cat feels safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away. Basic care—including feeding, litter maintenance, and check-ins—is always included. I have fostered several dogs for short periods but dog experience is limited. For any dog care please reach about. I work full time m-f but am flexible with work hours most day to accommodate your needs if scheduled in advance. Morning / late afternoon/ evening availability. I can come and spend time with your cat. I value quality time with your cat and understand that their needs may vary at different times of the day.
About: I have been responsible for, taken care of, and assisted in the care of cats for well over a decade. From caring for my own, to cat sitting for young kittens and elderly cats that needed medical assistance (medications, dietary restrictions). I have been trusted with the care of many in my lifetime.
“Kerry was great! So nice to receive pictures and updates while I was away. Unfortunately Minky was not very happy being left alone so long and actually bit Kerry. I am so sorry about that Kerry.”
“Andrea was very communicative and willing to go the extra mile despite a last minute booking. Her pictures and updates were great and she did a great job caring for our cats.”
“Tanis hopped into my life when a last minute work trip came up and was brilliant with Archie. During our meet and greet she made me feel so at ease and I went away with full confidence. She sent lots of updates and photos! Highly recommend 💛”
About: I've had the joy of caring for dogs for over 20 years, both my own and for friends and family. From energetic puppies to gentle seniors, I’ve provided everything from playful walks to medication support and cozy cuddle time. I’m retired and home full time, so your dog will get lots of attention, regular potty breaks, and loving supervision throughout the day. What sets me apart is the calm, nurturing environment I provide. I treat every dog like part of the family! with patience, kindness, and affection. I understand that each pet has unique needs, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in my care. Whether your pup needs a quiet place to relax, a slow paced walk, or just someone to sit with them on the couch, I’m here to help. My gentle nature and calm home are especially ideal for senior dogs, shy pups, or dogs who need a little extra reassurance while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. As a dog owner and lover, I’m home full time and available throughout the day to give your pup the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s morning potty breaks, midday walks, or evening cuddle time, I’m here and fully present. My son Alexander also helps out daily, especially with walks, playtime, and making sure your dog gets plenty of attention and companionship. Between the two of us, your pet will never be left alone, we work together to keep their routine consistent, stress free, and full of love. Weekdays and weekends are both flexible for us, so we’re able to accommodate early drop offs & late pickups! I live in a quiet, pet friendly strata complex with a fenced grassy backyard, perfect for safe & supervised potty breaks and some fresh air. When more activity is needed, I take dogs on leashed walks in our peaceful neighborhood to give them a change of scenery and a chance to stretch their legs. Inside, there’s plenty of room for zoomies, toys, and relaxed downtime. I keep the home calm, clean, and free of hazards, and I always make sure your pet has a cozy space to feel safe and comfortable. Your dog will be supervised throughout the day and never left alone for long. I also believe that clear communication is key. I’ll always ask about your dog’s routine, preferences, and any special needs. Whether it's feeding times, potty routines, or favorite toys, I’ll make sure your pet feels right at home. Your pup's well being, safety, and happiness are my top priorities and with my son Alexander helping me every step of the way, your furry friend will always have a familiar, caring presence by their side.

About: Growing up I’ve had pitbulls, chihuahuas, hedgehogs , hamsters, bunnies, lizards and snakes growing up. Love having animals around, just not ready for any full time of our own, Thought this was a great step! I have 3 kids in school, I hike 4-6 times a week, I love bringing dogs with me so ask about my daily pricing but I usually charge an hour fee ( with a small pickup fee to cover gas) and we are gone for 1.5-6 hours of exercise depending on the day. Sometimes we are with other furry friends or people friends, I can work with off leash or on leash and we usually focus on free time and working on the dogs recall, sit and manners with other explorers. On hot days we like to wander down to the dog beach where we have been working on swimming skills I have a backyard, and some acreage beside us. Love hikes and going to the river. Always ready for any adventure your dog is ready for even if it means staying home and getting some rest.
“Paula was kind enough to take care of Halley in a short notice. Halley seems like she had a good time with her, she's happy and calm, had a great walk and a good nap in a loving home. Also, Paula sent a bunch of photos while Halley was there.”

“Wonderful! Nicole is very caring and she really knows how to take care of dogs and make them feel comfortable and safe. My dog had a great time with her and her sweet little dog.”
About: Nicole and I share a lifelong bond with pets, having grown up surrounded by them. Throughout our adult lives, we've been dedicated pet owners, currently cherishing our 5-year-old dog, Bowser. From puppyhood, we've diligently trained him, and my work-from-home setup has allowed for ample time to prioritize his training and exercise needs. In addition to our canine companion, I have a rich history of caring for cats, involving tasks such as feeding, cleaning litter, and ensuring their safety outdoors, a responsibility I've carried since childhood. Nicole, on the other hand, has always had the joy of growing up with dogs. Our collective experiences form a foundation of pet expertise, and our shared passion for animals is reflected in the years of dedicated pet care we bring to Rover. As dedicated artists working from home and committed dog parents, Nicole and I seamlessly integrate our flexible schedules to prioritize your furry companion's needs and well being. If you'd like, my wonderful dog Bowser is eager to keep your pet company during walks or visits. I love exploring different environments, so we can hit the trails or stroll through town, depending on what your pet enjoys. Making sure bathroom breaks are on a regular schedule is a top priority for me. I'm also a fan of training and playtime, so I'll gladly tend to any other needs your pet might have. I'm here to tend to your pet's specific needs, so you can feel at ease knowing they are in good hands with their new friend.
“Alexandra is a great! Highly recommend. Great communication and pictures my dog can be high maintenance as a loud husky and she handles him with ease and her husky as well is very sweet and well behaved.”

I am a student here doing masters in Business Administration. I can pretty much work around my schedule except for Tuesdays. I am quite flexible with the schedule. I have more dog friends than human friends. I connect with animals. I understand dogs in a whole other way ! I make sure that our fur baby’s needs are met … I also build a relationship with them so they don’t miss their owners as much .
“I can’t recommend this sitter enough! Shawn sends updates throughout the day and truly treated my dog like she was one of his own. My dog struggles with separation anxiety and she was actually bursting out of the car to go to this house. Shawn is super easy to communicate with and pickup/drop off were seamless. Simply a delight.”
About: I've cared for dogs for over 20 years of my own. I am a big dog lover and enjoy the love and joy they bring. I have groomed and clipped nails for my own dogs. My family loves going for walks and playing at the park by our house which is a perfect place for a dog to run and play! I am a stay at home mom who homeschools her two boys. So there will be lots of time to play and cuddle with your little four legged friend. We love to be outside enjoying fresh air. We have a fenced backyard for bathroom breaks and tine outside. We have space for a crate if needed or we can place a bed in our room for your pup. We want to accommodate what's best for your dog so we're flexible in thoughts and ideas.
“Nikhil and his partner Jharna took care of my dog like their own child. My dog is a husky mix and needs couple of hours a day for walks and calm atmosphere at home. They give her plenty of walks, ensure she is well fed. She used to be picky eater and they would make sure she eats her meals with food toppings. They regularly update us with how she is doing. Most importantly, they give her lots of love. They are great in communicating about confirmation and pick up. This is my second time boarding my dog with them and my dog comes back happy and relaxed. Thank you!”
“Harshita was great with our doodle, Zircon who felt very comfortable at her place. She promptly kept us updated with messages and pics. :) Definitely a sitter to go to next time as well!”
“Peggy was absolutely amazing to deal with and super flexible. She was great at communicating and both days we picked up a happy and tired pup. Her dog Bandit was super sweet with our dog too. 100% would recommend.”

“Angela is AMAZING! We have a fear reactive dog, who can be a real handful. She’s been so good at making him feel safe - and is an expert at reinforcing his leash skills. We couldn’t be happier!”
“Danielle is amazing! My dog is alone for long days and she makes sure he gets the exercise he needs! He’s high energy and can be a bit anxious and from the start she’s really taken the time to meet his needs. I would highly recommend. :)”
“This was our first time using Rover. We were thrilled to work with Paula. She answered all of our questions and was very responsive/friendly. Our dog has some quirky behaviours and is a nervous boy. She did amazing with him and sent of lots of updates. We will feel at ease using her again in the future. 😊”
About: I grew up surrounded by dogs, horses, cats, bunnies, and birds. Today, I own two German Shorthaired Pointers, cats, and a house bunny. I have great puppy experience from raising two litters of puppies. All pet care is ran out of my semi private basement suite and can be set up for your pets care and needs. The suite walks out directly into a massive, secure yard for instant, safe playtime. Pet care is seamlessly woven into our family’s daily life. Because I work part-time from home and homeschool my children, I am home with the pets for the vast majority of the day. When the weather is nice, we spend a lot of our time out in our large fenced yard, handling school lessons outside while the dogs and pets enjoy the fresh air and space to run. Any time we do leave the house, it is only for short periods, such as a quick grocery run or dropping off and picking up the kids from their extracurricular activities. Your pets will rarely be left alone and will get plenty of daily attention, companionship, and yard time as part of our regular routine! Secure Outdoor & Indoor Spaces: I have a large, secure fenced yard for playtime and a whole basement dedicated to pet care. Quiet & Safe Retreats: I have a separate room available to provide a quiet space whenever a pet needs some downtime. Secure Departures: If I need to step out briefly, pets are safely kenneled. For pets that do not kennel, we utilize the private room as a secure, comfortable safe space while I'm away.
About: Experienced in compassionate dog care, including dedicated neighbourhood dog sitting and comprehensive kennel work. In the past I’ve participated in agility, showmanship and obedience competitions with my own puppy. I am currently available most anytime for pet sitting, dog walking and anything else your pets need. I’m dedicated to spending lots of time outdoor and would love to have some puppy company on my walks or runs. I can provide regular check ins and multiple walks throughout the day depending on what your pet needs. In my own home I have a senior dog so she only can manage short walks when it’s not to hot out.
About: I am an experienced dog walker and cat/dog sitter from Chicago, IL! I worked with a private dog walking company as well as providing many years of cat and dog sitting to clients in my neighborhood. I am studying animal welfare at UBC and getting my PhD in dairy cattle welfare, so I am very passionate about animal behaviour and wellbeing. I own two wonderful cats and have worked in a cat clinic administering medicine in the past. I have lots of experience reading cat behaviour and providing companionship for them! I additionally volunteered as a dog walker at a shelter in Chicago for years and was trained on how to walk dogs with behavioural issues. I would love the opportunity to be around dogs more, as I can't have one with my two cats, and am away from the dogs I used to sit in Chicago! I am a current grad student so I have extreme flexibility! I can make almost every day or time work for checking in on or walking your pet. I am someone who cares about safety and wellbeing over all else (hence the animal welfare PhD!) and will make sure your pet is safe and happy. I have many years of experience and am very cautious when taking care of someone's pet!
About: We love animals and grew up with them. More recently, we have gained a lot of experience with reactive dogs. We rescued a two-year-old German Shepherd mix who is highly dog and people reactive. We have done a tonne of positive and balanced training. So, if you have an animal who needs a little bit of extra patience, we can definitely do that (adhering to whichever training style you’ve chosen to adopt). We both love being active outdoors and would happily take your dog on runs, walks and hikes!! And, we can’t forget the cats, we are always happy for a cuddle. We have pretty flexible jobs and work from home much of the time, so we can fit it in potty breaks, walks etc whenever is needed :) We don’t care for pets in our home (because of our reactive dog), but would love to care for your animals in your home. We will adjust to whatever routine, training, and rules you have!

About: Hi! My name is Trinity, and caring for animals has been such a huge part of my life for many years now. I have just under 5 years of hands-on experience working in a professional dog boarding and daycare environment, where I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, temperaments, and energy levels. Through this experience, I’ve become very confident handling everything from playful puppies and high-energy dogs to senior dogs and those who may need a little extra patience, structure, or reassurance. I am certified in kennel environment dog first aid, so your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can fully trust, and I always strive to provide care that makes both pets and owners feel comfortable, safe, and supported. Alongside my daycare and boarding experience, I have also been house sitting professionally for the past 4 years. During that time, I’ve cared for pets in their own homes, helping maintain their normal routines and providing them with comfort, companionship, exercise, and lots of love while their families are away. I know how important consistency is for animals, and I do my best to make their time away from you as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. I’ve also had the opportunity to work with police dogs and service dogs, which has given me valuable experience working with highly trained dogs that require confidence, structure, and attentive handling. In addition to dogs, I’ve worked at a facility that also cared for cats, so I’m comfortable caring for feline friends as well and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and comfort level. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having a calm and caring companion around, I always take the time to get to know their individual needs and personality. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, because I truly treat every animal as if they were my own. I currently work and attend school part-time, but I always do my best to be flexible and accommodate your pet’s needs. I’m available to stop by before work or school to let your pup out, provide care, or spend some time with them. If you’re looking for care at other times throughout the day, feel free to reach out and I’ll do my best to work around my schedule whenever possible! I have exclusively house sat in my clients’ homes, which allows pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. Before any booking, I make sure I have your pet’s routine clearly written out and fully understand their needs, habits, and expectations. I also ensure I have all necessary tools, supplies, and information prepared before handling or caring for your dog, so we are both set up for a safe, smooth, and successful experience. I believe preparation, consistency, and patience are key to building trust and providing the best possible care for your pets.
About: Two decades of experience in professional pet care! If my rates are inaccessible for you, please reach out anyways and we can work something out! I think everyone should have access to affordable pet care! I started when I was just 12 years old walking my neighbours dogs and pet sitting their cats, soon those neighbours were so happy with my service that they referred me to their friends, and those friends referred me to more friends, and so the story goes. I have experience with all types of dogs, from dachshunds to pit bulls, from puppies to seniors. I am able to modify a service to suit your dogs needs, from small walks around the block to trail runs on Chilliwack Community Forest. I have worked for a high-volume dog daycare in downtown Vancouver where I learnt valuable skills on dog behavioural patterns and training techniques. I am a passionate multi-hyphenate freelancer, and every day looks a bit different! My main gigs are teaching yoga at local rec centres and universities, and pet sitting here on Rover. I'm also getting my MA at a distance program offered by UVic, so I spend most of my days reading and writing. On days I am working, I am usually gone anywhere from 2 to 6 hours. I am available to be a full-time, live-in housesitter while you're away. I am adaptable to your pet's rhythms and routines. I enjoy plenty of walks, snuggles on the couch, and giving out healthy treats (carrots are my dog's favorite). I am not only an experienced pet sitter, but a passionate homemaker. I will make sure that your pet stays happy, your house stays tidy, and your garden stays watered. I'm happy to do any housekeeping, including picking up the mail, tidying up the yard, or watering the houseplants!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life, and I’ve spent over four years living and working in an animal shelter in Italy, originally run by my mother. There, I cared for over 40 cats and 5 dogs at the same time, giving me hands-on experience in handling animals of all kinds. I know how to recognize when a pet isn’t feeling well, I can administer medication if needed, and I always make sure they are safe, happy, and comfortable. I love spending quality time with them, giving plenty of affection and attention throughout the day. What sets me apart is my shelter experience – I’ve managed multiple animals at once and understand how to keep them healthy, happy, and loved. Whether it’s cats or dogs, I’ll treat your furry family members as if they were my own. I’m generally available every day, whether in the mornings, afternoons, or evenings. Some days I can even visit twice a day, and on Saturdays and Sundays I’m available much more. I would love to have regular, long-term clients, as I believe it’s better for the animal to have a consistent caregiver rather than a different sitter every time. This way, I can build a strong relationship and trust with each pet. My schedule can be adjusted based on my work and shifts, and I’ll always keep my Rover calendar up to date to reflect my availability. make sure every pet is safe, comfortable, and happy. I follow their routine as closely as possible, including feeding, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I give plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the visit. If I am caring for pets at their home, I respect their space and environment, keeping everything clean and following the owner’s instructions carefully. I can also administer medication if needed and monitor for any signs of discomfort or illness. My goal is to make each pet feel loved, secure, and well cared for, whether I am visiting or hosting them.
“Kevin was such a help to us when I was too pregnant to get our dog the exercise he needs! Our dog was initially shy but warmed up to Kevin and I could tell he looked forward to their walks together. Would definitely hire him again!”
About: I’ve had a variety of pets since I was little and cared for them well. I am the go to for my friends and family when they are away. I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, rabbits, birds and fish. I currently work from home so I am flexible with my availability daily and weekly. I also have a separate space for pets who need their own area to feel comfortable if they are staying with me. I have parks and trails for daily dog walking. I am able to be flexible with pets needs in my home or at a client’s home. As a pet parent myself, I also have experience with pet grooming and administering medications if needed.
About: I have more than 22 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, as well as farm animals including chickens, pigs, alpacas, sheep, horses and donkeys. I’ve also fostered both dogs and cats for the SPCA and my local animal shelter. I’m comfortable caring for puppies and kittens, senior pets, large dogs, multiple-pet households and animals requiring medication. I have a particular soft spot for big dogs, but genuinely enjoy animals of all sizes, ages, personalities, and temperaments. I’m quiet, responsible and attentive to each pet’s routine. I know how important consistency is when their people are away, so I do my best to stick to their routines and do what I can to make them feel safe and comfortable. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I have flexibility in my work schedule and can provide regular walks, feeding, playtime, medication, and company throughout the day. I enjoy walking and being outdoors, so I’m happy with active dogs, but I’m equally comfortable with senior pets or animals who prefer a quieter routine. When house sitting, I’m able to spend plenty of time in your home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I care for pets in their own homes, where they can remain comfortable with their usual routines and surroundings. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding, walks, medication, crates, sleeping arrangements, door and gate security, and interactions with other animals. Having owned a home for many years and completed numerous house sits, I understand the responsibility that comes with being trusted with both someone’s pets and their home. I’m tidy, respectful and careful to leave your home as I found it.

“This was a wonderful first Rover experience. My dog seemed happy and healthy upon her return and Julie probably regular communication and quick responses. She has a nice property with friendly dogs. Will definitely use again.”
“Brigitta provided a great and welcoming home for my fur babies. Anyone who has had huskies knows how challenging they can be with such high energy and propensity to escape. My dogs absolutely loved spending a weekend at Brigitta's home with her children and dogs. I will be bringing my beloved pups back anytime I may need a sitter!”
“Paula was great. I was I town for a wedding, so was very hectic and scattered, and Paula was wonderful with answering my last minute questions and sent me adorable photo updates. Tally was very happy after her stay and seemed to have gotten lots of attention!”
“Arshjot gave such great care to my doggie while I was away for the weekend. Drop off and pick up was easy, she communicated with me throughout my dog’s stay with her and I felt totally at ease that he was in good care. I would definitely contact Arshjot again for dog sitting in the future!”
“Ryan offered an amazing stay for our Ozzie! Consistent updates and photos allowed us to ease into our day without worry. Seeing how comfortable our Ozzie was in his care made all the difference for us! Ozzie would be happy and lucky to have more time with Ryan! Thanks again for taking care of our Ozzie Bear!”
About: Since I was a young child, I have been so drawn to a wide variety of animals. I have rescued and rehabilitated many wild animals, and taken care of many pets of all sizes! I have personally had cats, dogs, bunnies, birds, lizards, snakes, fish, chickens and mice as loving pets. I admire how each animal is truly unique and special. My dream ia to open an animal rescue someday and help find long-term loving homes for many of our homeless local cat and dog populations. Everywhere I go, I make new animal friends, and they are drawn to my calm and caring energy. Your pet will be treated like my own, and you can trust me to keep your pet safe. I currently have 2 cats of my own whom I absolutely love and spoil! Call me Miss Do-little! My personal schedule is quite flexible, and I can often accommodate short notice bookings, and be flexible with my client's schedules. I ask questions to ensure proper care and follow owners instructions to keep their pet and myself safe and well. People can trust me in their homes and with their animals! My personal schedule is flexible and I work my own appointments around my work schedule. If I am injured or sick, I will contact you ASAP to let you know if we need to modify our booking. I always require a meet and greet at my home to see if your dog will get along with my cats. I will not bring a dog into my home that has any history of violence towards cats. When I care for a pet in my home, I always make sure there is nothing in my home or backyard that could hurt them or make them sick BEFORE their arrival. My cat's food gets moved up and your dog gets a large clean water bowl. All animal food, treats, medicines are locked away for safety. I have a fully fenced backyard with a secure gate, and a cable line for dogs that need to be extra secured. There are multiple spots in my backyard with shade and plenty of space for your dog to sunbathe and roll in the grass. There is always access to clean drinking water and I have toys specifically for outside play. I have a gate in the hallway to allow separation from my cats if need be, and my cats get full access to our catio patio. I will leash your dog inside my home while they get used to my cats, to keep everyone safe. Your dog is welcome to sleep on a bed on my bedroom floor or on my bed if they choose to. I have blankets on each of my couches that get changed and washed between each dog, so they are welcome to nap or cuddle with me on the couch. I have a been of shared dog toys that get replaced or washed often.
“Rochelle was quick to respond and professional from the start of communication to pickup time. Our minds were at ease as soon as we met her. Our big dogs loved her backyard and came home happy and tired! We would definitely book again and recommend her to friends.”
“Alexandra was amazing! My work schedule changed last minute and she was very flexible and quick to reply to messages making the last minute change smooth and stress-free. She sent updates with photos regularly and my dog was super happy in her care and loved her dog Katara.”
“Denise went above and beyond to make my anxious little girl comfortable. Poppy is a particular pup! Denise ensured that she was safe, healthy and happy. I can't say enough great things about Denise. I was able to relax knowing she was in amazing hands.”
“This was our third time having Nikhil care for our dog Maddie, when we were on a short, 2-day trip. Nikhil absolutely loves animals, and Maddie gets so excited to see him. Nikhil sends updates and photos, and has excellent communication skills. He is polite, friendly and caring. We couldn't ask for a better dog sitter, and Maddie looks forward to her next stay with him.”

“Amazing! Gabriella was the best with Remus. Sent us lots of updates and pictures and really put our minds at ease while we were gone. Remus came back so happy and exhausted from all his fun adventures. Thank you again for being such an amazing dog sitter :) looking forward to seeing you both again :)”
About: I’ve always had pets for as long as I can remember. I take my own dogs as well as friends dogs on walks. I am someone who my friends and family trust to leave their pets with. I have a German Shepard named hunter who is 12 years old and a little pug named Finn. I live in a large basement suite so if your wanting to bring your dogs to my house there is the option for socialization or if your puppy prefers alone time they will be safe with me downstairs:) I have a large fenced yard and live in a quiet neighborhood perfect for peaceful walks. If you or your pet prefers to stay in their own home I am also flexible with day visits or overnight stays, having had 2 pugs I am completely comfortable with dogs sleeping with me or wherever they are most comfortable.
About: Nicole and I share a lifelong bond with pets, having grown up surrounded by them. Throughout our adult lives, we've been dedicated pet owners, currently cherishing our 5-year-old dog, Bowser. From puppyhood, we've diligently trained him, and my work-from-home setup has allowed for ample time to prioritize his training and exercise needs. In addition to our canine companion, I have a rich history of caring for cats, involving tasks such as feeding, cleaning litter, and ensuring their safety outdoors, a responsibility I've carried since childhood. Nicole, on the other hand, has always had the joy of growing up with dogs. Our collective experiences form a foundation of pet expertise, and our shared passion for animals is reflected in the years of dedicated pet care we bring to Rover. As dedicated artists working from home and committed dog parents, Nicole and I seamlessly integrate our flexible schedules to prioritize your furry companion's needs and well being. If you'd like, my wonderful dog Bowser is eager to keep your pet company during walks or visits. I love exploring different environments, so we can hit the trails or stroll through town, depending on what your pet enjoys. Making sure bathroom breaks are on a regular schedule is a top priority for me. I'm also a fan of training and playtime, so I'll gladly tend to any other needs your pet might have. I'm here to tend to your pet's specific needs, so you can feel at ease knowing they are in good hands with their new friend.
“Great experience! Dolly was quick to respond to our texts and sent pictures while we were away which was so nice. One of our dogs is special needs and Dolly took excellent care of her. Will definitely book with Dolly again!”
“Brittany was so great to deal with, I'm so happy to have found her. Molly was comfortable with her and her dogs right away and I can tell she enjoyed her stay. Brittany sent pictures and updates, which I really appreciated. I would for sure recommend Brittany, great experience!”
“Awaneesh and family are amazing. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone other than family and I was quite nervous about it. From the start we set up a meet and greet and right away I felt confident that they would love and care for my dog. I was encouraged by the frequent updates and pictures. I highly recommend Awaneesh and will use again in the future.”
