“Kimberly did an excellent job taking care of Sophie! We could tell that she came home well rested and all of her needs were taken care of while we were gone. Kimberly and her family treated Sophie like she was part of their family! Provided timely updates with photos. Would not hesitate to have Sophie stay with them anytime we need to find her an extended stay.”
“I highly recommend Justine and Brett to care for your dogs. They have a beautiful family of 4 children who showered my two dogs (a Boxer and a mix breed) with love and affection. They came home so tired and content. This was the first time they were away from home so I was a little afraid of how they would act. I was told they behaved and I hope that was true. I would not hesitate for a minute to use Justine and Brett again.”
“We are so excited to meet Amanda and Anton. They were amazing with our dog. It is so great when you can find someone you can trust your pet with. We received photos and updates. We could see how happy our puppy was when we arrived. Thanks so much. Highly recommend”
“It was such a relief to meet Lynda and Paul! It was our first time using Rover and I was very apprehensive. After our meet n great, I felt so comfortable and knew my dog would be well cared for. When I picked Louie up at the end of the weekend, he was calm and happy. I will definitely use Lynda, again!”
“My first time using this service. I was very nervous, but Jo’Ell put me at ease. She sent me picture’s several times a week of my dogs. They were perfect when I got back.”
“Ivy and Markus , their daughters and their dog Hope took very good care of our little girl Roxi for 5 days, They walked her daily with Hope. Sent pics daily too. We will definitely be back!”
“Robert did a great job with Tater. I loved the pic and video showing Tater playing with the other dogs and relaxing. He got a lot of love and cuddles while I was away. I am really happy to have connected with Robert and his dogs so quickly. It was the perfect match for Tater.”
“Jon and Toni were very accommodating with our schedule especially being so close to a holiday. We enjoyed the personalized photo and video updates. Our pup seemed to enjoy herself on her stay with them. They were able to handle our pup's prescription food and medicine situation and we would definitely use them in the future!”
“Ashley is a wonderful pet sitter that really goes up and beyond! Our Ruby received so much attention, play time and walks. Ashley was great about sending us photos & videos too. We would gladly rebook with her. Thank you, Ashley!”
“Barbara and her family were very accommodating and I felt confident in dropping my dog off with them. I could tell my dog would be well loved, which is always a concern when leaving your dog with someone else. It is hard finding someone who is willing to take one dog at a time and my dog doesn’t get along with other dogs, so she and her family were the perfect fit! Thank you again Barbara!”
“Kathy always takes incredible care of my Kitters! She stays with Kathy whenever she needs a sitter. This past weekend she took great care of Kit making sure she got lots of love, attention, sunshine, comfort, and her eye drops. She also did an AMAZING job taking care of Kit while we were in Japan for 2 weeks as well. Kit always looks forward to staying with Kathy and her family and I always feel 100% confident that Kit is in safe caring hands. Thank you sooooo much!!!!”
“Thank you for taking good care of Titan this week while we were on vacation! We’re glad to have him home but he’s probably gonna miss playing with Dottie!”
“Sheila is amazing! I felt completely at ease leaving my two pups with her overnight. They came back happy and tired, which means they had a blast! She even set up a smaller fenced-in area to keep my little one safe. Sheila was incredibly detailed, communicative, and thoughtful—I’ve already booked her for my next trip!”
“Michelle and Matthew took such great care of our 2 dogs - we are so grateful! We received pictures and updates every day, which we very much appreciated. Our dogs got walks and exercise and lots of love! This was our first time finding care through the Rover app, and we were so relieved to find such a great family to care for our dogs. Thank you Michelle and Matthew!!”
About: I have extensive experience in walking, sitting, and training dogs. I have fostered 13 dogs in my home, and have had many pets of my own before that. I have babysat and fostered puppies as young as 8 weeks, and senior dogs as old as 16. I am familiar with animal CPR and available to take dogs out as often as needed. I am an online nursing student, so I am always available and at home. I am currently an online nursing student, so I am always available to take dogs out. When I foster puppies, I have them out every 1-2 hours as well as have plenty of play time and interaction. For boarding, my pick up and drop off hours are between 8 am - 8 pm. Anything outside of those hours will be an additional $20 charge. If you are 1-2 hours late picking up your pet, it will be an additional $20. I have a yard and dog-friendly neighborhood that I can take care of your dog in. The dogs are welcome to every area in my home including beds and couches! I want your dog to be as comfortable as I am.
“Tania is great with communication & flexible with drop off/ pick up times! Ziggy was exhausted when he got home so we know he was well cared for and kept active. Her family all had things to say about Ziggy when we picked him up so we know he was certainly spoiled too!!!”

“Caleigh is someone that is not only trustworthy but such a joy to be around. Her love and respect for pets can brighten up any mood. She’s heavily involved with fostering and always one of the first to respond in helping however she can. She is someone you trust around your family and pets. You will thank yourself later that she was the person to take care of your furry loved ones when you’re in need. She’s the perfect match. Your pets will be asking to book her in advance :)”
