“Kimberley watched my little Frances for the weekend and took such great care of her! She was considerate, provided lots of updates and I felt very much at ease that Fran was in good hands. I would recommend Kimberley as a sitter!!”
“Highly Recommend! Lynda went above and beyond with our little 4 year old Coton de Tulear. It is evident Lynda recognized how precious he is to us and she made him feel like one of her own. From ensuring he had his allergy meds to offering him sleeping options to make him feel at home to cuddles and play time, we now feel we have found the best pet sitter for our pup. Lynda’s own three lovely and well behaved dogs are a perfect match with our dog and this added yet another level of fun and exercise to Romeo’s experience. Lynda even washed cuddle blankets and food containers we had sent along and totally spoiled Romeo with a new toy ball that came home with him. Lynda is very responsive and regularly sent photos and videos. We felt completely at ease knowing Romeo was in the hands of such a caring and capable family. 5 Stars for Lynda!”
“Highly recommend them they are absolutely wonderful people. I was so nervous about leaving our dog with someone for the first time. The daily updates, photos and videos made our day! Our trip back was delayed a day and they were super accommodating to keep him for another night. We will definitely book with them again. Think my dog was sad when he got home with us. He was looking for them at the door at our place.”
“Abbey and James are amazing. They are wonderful people and treat Ryder as if she were their own. Ryder is always excited when they arrive to pick her up for her stay. Their dog Styx and Ryder play all day together and she is always tired when she comes home. I highly recommend Abbey and James. We already have her next stay booked.”
“Jennifer provided excellent care to my (nervous 17 yr old) dog Rosie. She was so kind and gave daily updates and photos. I was able to enjoy my time away without worrying. I highly recommend Jennifer and I will definitely book with her again”
“Leaving our 9 year old dog Lily with Christina for 7 days was an excellent experience. Christina was welcoming, accommodating, and kept us informed of Lily’s wellbeing. We rarely need to leave her with someone besides family but would definitely go back to Christina again. Lily came home happy and healthy! With many thanks!”
“Danielle was absolutely wonderful with our pug, Pepe! From the moment we connected, she was kind, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. Throughout the stay, she kept me updated and made sure Pepe was well and having fun! When we picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
About: I’ve had tons of different animals growing up. Recently had to euthanize my 15 year old family boarder collie. Also an English bull dog who passed away at two due to breathing issues. I miss having a dog around, however am not ready to adopt my own just yet. Would love to have them over here and there. I Absolutely adore dogs! I currently work from home so I am always here to take care and love your animal! Will walk, feed, cuddle them and if permitted, take them where me and my family go, weather it’s a walk to the park or beach! We will love and care for your pet as our own. We have a backyard for them to pee/poo as well as a pool if they can swim. Will go on walks! I have two children who adore animals who are very gentle so we will all be spending lots of time together. Dog must be kid friendly though.
“Janice and Rene are FANTASTIC dog sitters!!! They are caring with our Daisy, attentive to all of her needs and treat her like their own dog. We feel so at ease leaving Daisy with them and we HIGHLY recommend them to everyone we know!”
“Our second time using Vivian and her parents and I would book them again for my dog, Bella. They sent lots of photos and videos and took Bella for lots of walks. Communication was excellent.”
“Dash just loves being with Tanya and her family including all her friendly dogs. Tanya keeps was updated with lots of photos, let pur dog be a part of her faimily and it shows when he meets her or he is about to leave them. We are actually very thankful to finally find someone who loves Dash as much does them.”
“Amazing stay for our fur baby he was relaxed and so content from his stay! Lei took excellent care of Zeus kept us posted sent us videos and pictures we were very pleased and assured our little guy was in good hands. Lei even went out of her way to return the feeder bowls I forgot at pick up she drove them over. Honestly amazing 👏 thanks so much for having Zeus”
“Qianzhi was very communicative and flexible with our changing drop off and pick off times. She sent lots of photos and videos showing Henry playing and enjoying time with the other dogs in her care.”
“Our little Spencer had a wonderful time with Emily. Thank you for the pictures and updates. It was so good to see playful and relaxed. We hope to see you again soon”
“Ali was absolutely fantastic with my labrador retriever Thor. She took care of him for almost 2 weeks and was very punctual and prompt with updates. She’s super responsive and made us feel very comfortable that Thor was in great hands. My sincere heartfelt thanks to her for being so amazing with Thor. She will be our go to for him, any day.”
“We are returning customers and we had such a wonderful experience with Susana. Susana and her lovely family created a loving and caring environment for our dog, Nino, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We really appreciate the regular updates, photos and videos that were provided during Nino’s stay. It means so much to know that someone treats your dog with the same love and attention you would give yourself. We are truly grateful to Susana for the wonderful care and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring and dependable dog sitter. We will definitely be reaching out again! Anna and Hassan”
“Can’t say enough good things about Kristina! I always feel reassured when our Whiskey stays for a visit. Kristina is kind, friendly and super knowledgeable. Whiskey and Jax have the best of time! Jax is a smart, playful, happy and fun dog!”
“Manali and her whole family took great care of Snowy. This time, Snowy stayed a little longer than usual, and with their warmth and loving care, she felt at home with them. We were also completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. They kept us regularly updated with photos and videos of Snowy, which gave us great peace of mind throughout her stay. We truly appreciate how well they cared for her and would be happy to have Snowy stay with them again. 🐾❤️”
“Alaina was responsive, kind and wonderfully accommodating of our (not always well-behaved) pup. She shared updates and was easy to communicate with. We'll definitely return!!”
“Jason and his family were absolutely great with Kiwi! Lots of pictures almost daily, and Kiwi always looked happy and comfortable. She returned home also looking very well taken care of. I'd definitely recommend Jason to take care of your pets, and will surely have him and his family watch Kiwi again in the future. :)”

Kimberley was excellent. Our Lily has never been good with kennels, so our last option was to seek someone to look after her in their home. Kimberley was so patient and easy going. It takes Lily a bit to calm down when in new surroundings. Kimberley kept us up to date on how she was doing, which gave us peace of mind. We will definitely be looking to rebook with her! Highly recommend!
I think Bella had a great time with Shelley and family. She was excited to run into their house right away when i arrived to drop her off. She must've remembered the meet and greet and wanted to see her two cat friends and the rest of the family. We had some timing issues on both sides for my pick up time and Shelley was fine keeping Bella a few extra hours which was appreciated and worked out to both our benefits.
Ollie, our 4-year-old Golden, just came home from the best boarding experience he’s ever had — and honestly, we couldn’t be happier. Laura and her husband are genuinely caring, warm people who treated Ollie like one of their own. From the moment we dropped him off, their love for dogs was obvious, and Laura’s positive, cheerful energy put both Ollie and us completely at ease. Ollie had an absolute blast. He got to swim (his favourite thing in the world), play with another Golden and an adorable Golden puppy, and just be his happy, social self. He fit right in from day one. The neighbourhood is lovely, and the whole environment felt safe, welcoming, and full of life. Communication throughout the stay was excellent — we always knew how he was doing, which means everything when you’re away from your fur baby. Ollie came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’ll absolutely be booking with Laura again. Highly recommend! 🐾
Frida had a great week and loved her new friends. Great first time experience with Rover, and it was all because of the great sitters. We had a nice connect the week prior and knew right away it would be a great fit. Constant updates of all the fun they had while we were away helped reassure she was in great hands. I would highly recommend Megan and know we will definitely be bringing Frida back for a visit!
It’s quite difficult for me and I believe many others, to leave a much loved dog in the care of anyone I do not know very well. Michaela’s calm approach seemed to immediately let my puppy relax and happily go with her. Seeing my Cali relax was definitely reassuring. Michaela also sent me a photo of Cali probably 30 minutes after I left, further convincing me that I had made a good decision in my choice of sitter! All around a very positive experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to choose Michaela again, to take care of Cali.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our .
