“Peter and Monique were so attentive to our dog for a whole week. Peter was very thorough in asking all about Sooty’s needs and preferences. We really appreciated the updates and photos, our dog had a lovely time and was very well cared for. I booked Peter based on reading the reviews and would say exactly the same as others have. Definitely recommend and will be booking again in future.”

“Mary Ann is quite simply the best. This was our third time booking her to care for our elderly dog, and she did not disappoint. She creates a thoughtful care plan to cover all possible needs, provides updates while we’re away, and makes sure our canine child is loved in our absence. What more could you ask for?! Will absolutely book her again [and again]!”

About: Hi there! I'm Ashley, a lifelong dog lover and work-from-home mom ready to give your pup the care and comfort they deserve. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs, especially after caring for my fur daughter, my sweet long-haired Chihuahua who was by my side for 17 wonderful years. I understand the slower pace and extra TLC that older pups need, and I’m here to provide just that. We’ve also had two German Shepherd mixes in the past, so I’m no stranger to larger breeds. While I typically prefer small to medium-sized dogs for our home setup, I’m open to exceptions for well-mannered larger dogs — especially seniors. Because I work from home and my kids are at daycare during the day, it’s just me and your pup…which means plenty of calm, one-on-one attention and companionship in a quiet environment. I know how stressful it can be to find care you trust…especially when options in our area are limited. That’s why I treat every dog like family, with love, routine, and lots of affection. I’ll care for your furry loved one as if they were my own and will happily share updates and photos as often as you'd like to give you peace of mind while you're away. I provide attentive, loving care while fitting seamlessly into my daily routine. Because I work from home with a lot of flexibility, I can offer daily daycare with plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. I’m also happy to provide overnight boarding for dogs who need a home-away-from-home. Throughout, I’ll keep you updated as much as you’d like, so you always feel comfortable and connected. I care for dogs in a safe, comfortable home environment where your dog will be treated like a valued family member. While I don’t have a fenced backyard, your dog will always be supervised and safe. They’re always free to explore and relax throughout the home. Because pets are part of the family, we often allow them on the couch and beds to snuggle and feel at home, but I’m always happy to follow your preferences to make sure your fur baby feels comfortable and loved.

“Nala had a fantastic stay and discovered her love of Bach ? We will definitely be using Nell again. She did everything to make sure that Nala was comfortable.”

“Franny and her husband were absolutely wonderful!! They took extra great care of our pup! I highly recommend. It was soo convenient being right down the road from camp Pontiac, where we attended a wedding.”

“I wish I could leave more than 5 stars for my dog's recent stay with Lynette and her family. She was simply amazing with Shea and her special needs as an older rescue dog that needs medication and extra tlc with being comfortable in new situations. We were updated frequently during our trip with pics which was a nice touch and very much appreciated on our end. Her dog Honey was the best and most patient host as well! If you are looking for a sitter for your pet, and are a bit apprehensive about using this app/someone you dont know, leave your fears behind and enjoy your trip bc Lynette is the real deal. Our usual sitter was not available the week we needed someone and a trial stay at a kennel did not go well for Shea, so we were about to cancel our trip. A friend recommend using Rover and we came across Lynette and her profile. We scheduled a meet and greet and from there booked out dogs stay. Im so glad we did and look forward to using her again in the future when needed. Thanks again Lynette!!! 🥰🙂💜”

“We’ve used a handful of sitters on rover and Angela and Tommy are the best. They have an awesome big yard, playful friendly pups, and give lots of love to our fur baby. Thankful to have a go to home for when we have to travel.”

Krystal H.

“Mary & Todd are a dream come true! We were very nervous leaving our baby with someone we didn’t know, for the first time, and Mary made us feel so beyond comfortable. The photos, updates and check ins made us think Tilly may never want to come back home! Our pup went for rides, walks, runs, errands, ball chases and partook in endless fun for two straight days. I’m not sure how Mary & Todd could possibly have more energy than our dear Tilly but she’s officially exhausted and had the adventure of a lifetime. My husband joked that we should do this as a doggy camp once a month, we just may ask if they’d be down!”

Nadine L.

“Definitely recommend! My dog had a fantastic time, and it was clear how much Ben enjoyed taking care of him. He was very communicative and sent lots of pic of our dog having fun. Will definitely book again!”

Laurey D.

“I can’t say enough about how well Sadie was cared for Kristina is certainly a dog-person. She read all the signs that Sadie was giving her to play, train go for a walk and chill. She followed all our directions and cared for Sadie as if she was her own dog. We received a lot of communication in the form of photos and videos. I would highly and without hesitation recommend Kristina to care for your dog too.”

Walter C.

“Maggie was so great with Gus!! He was happily tired and calm upon his return. She is really a dog person!! She loves them so much!! We would definitely contact Maggie again for dogsitting!! She also has a great fenced in yard for running :)”

MG G.

“James and family were wonderful with our dog, taking him in for a week while we went on a recent trip. His communication was thorough to assure us that things were going well, along with any questions about his care as needed. It was evident that our dog endeared himself to their family and had a great stay. We would definitely recommend James for any dog sitter needs and would rebook him as a dog sitter for future occasions”

Kristen C.

“Christine was the best! Our dogs felt comfortable and excited to hang out with her right away, and it’s clear that she loves all animals and that they love her in return. She sent many adorable photos and updates, which we appreciated, and even led our dogs in an amazing art project. We picked them up a few hours ago and they are both still sleeping off their weekend of fun. Definitely recommend!”

Miriam B.

“I felt totally comfortable leaving my dog with Katie! She did a great job reassuring me that my dog would do fine and she would text me if there were any issues. She also sent me a picture throughout the day. I would definitely go to her again.”

Kim W.

“Once again, Robyn and Dave are excellent. They're 15 miles away from our home, but I'd drive an hour to have them continue to watch our big boy when we're away!”

Robert A.

“Being that this was Hannah's first experience away from us, and with the separation anxiety she has, Karina showed a lot of patience and compassion in helping Hannah feel at home. I would highly recommend her if you are in need of a sitter.”

About: I've had my pets in my life but i've also looked after many pets. Sometimes I have had to look after more than one dog at a time and different ages and breeds. There has been times i have had to sleep over night with pets. I always feel a connection or a bond between animals as I believe they know our true intentions. m-f I Work at my main job which is at Webster Bank usually until 4 PM, But have off on holidays and weekends. Some nights I work late but I usually have a month ahead of what my schedule looks like. I treat anyone else's property as if it were my own or better than my own. I treat pets delicately and I like to find out what they are into, how they have fun, what treats they like etc. I am a very straight forward person and I am great communicating with. I work in my local surrounding towns and looking how I can serve.
