“Bandit has such a great time with Michael! I cannot say enough good things, and we've already booked more visits. Michael is truly a dog person, great with senior doggos and very kind and communicative.”
“Sidney was great. She sent updates a few times and pictures which was so appreciated. Maggie was a bit Leary about the hardwood floors someone’s put down rugs. She was an excellent sitter and highly recommend”
“Katie was absolutely amazing. We had anxiety about leaving our dog for the first time without family and she absolutely calmed any fears we might have had. Our dog was spoiled spending the weekend with Katie and you can tell she genuinely loves her doggy guests. Our normally shy pup was right at home and comfortable with her. She was always keeping us updated on how our dog was doing and sending pictures which proved just how great our dog was doing. We were able to enjoy a long weekend away knowing that our dog was in great hands. I would 1 million percent recommend Katie to anyone looking for help with their dog!”
“Avri was amazing! We had a great experience with Avri and would happily book with her again. She took excellent care of Stella, kept us updated with regular messages and cute photos, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Stella was well cared for and comfortable. We really appreciated the communication, reliability, and genuine care she showed. Highly recommend!”
“Joshua watched Stella for 4 nights. He took wonderful care of her. We had a great experience. He sent daily updates and gave us such peace of mind during my daughter’s wedding week. Reliable, communicative and trust worthy, I truly appreciate all his help and would highly recommend him.”
“We felt very comfortable leaving KodaBear with Dawn and her family. We received pictures and texts confirming he was doing well. Their daughter allowed Koda to snuggle at night! I think Koda misses Rambo!! We highly recommend this family!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Craig as Barney’s pet sitter! Craig was an excellent communicator, providing daily updates along with adorable pictures. He took Barney on regular walks and made sure he was comfortable in his welcoming home. It was clear that Craig cared for Barney like he was his own dog. Barney had a fantastic time, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We would definitely recommend Craig to others and look forward to using his services again in the future!”
“I am in the hospital and my regular sitter needed to go away for the weekend. I booked and confirmed with her very easily. She was great with communication with both myself and the regular sitter who dropped my dog off and picked her up. She regularly updated me with photos of them on a walk and my dog looked very happy in them. Everything went great I would for sure use Angie again.”

She also was able to administer medication to him because of a last minute ear infection. Definitely will be booking future dog sitting with Monica in the future. Thanks Again!!!”

Our dog clearly enjoyed her time staying with Tory. We will definitely ask Tory again to take care of na’vi for any future event. We definitely recommend her!!!”
About: Have a history of dog breeding and care, love all pets. We currently have 2 small dogs, our cat passed way last year sadly, but we love both. I work part time, three hours three times a week and so I have a lot of free time to care for the needs of your pet. I have a fully fenced in yard where even the smallest dog cannot get out. In your home I am available to help them feel comfortable and safe when you are away.
“Nathan and his family are excellent dog sitters. Duke had a great time. He was sending pictures so I can see how Duke was managing being away from home. I truly appreciate the great care they gave my dog. I’ll definitely use them again.”

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. 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 .
