“Teresa was fantastic. Gave us updates with photos, has a great environment for the dogs, and most importantly, our dog came back without any behavioral changes. Just the same happy dog we dropped off.”
“I have used Tracy and Steve multiple times and every time Django comes back happy and relaxed. This time they had the unique experience of caring for Nonny… Who is a very “special dog”. They were patient and kind with her and it gave me great confidence in their care! Will book again 🥰”
“Amanda took great care of our puppy over a long weekend. Amanda was very responsive throughout the whole process and took direction well. I would recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a dog sitter in the area.”
About: I have years of experience in the caretaking of animals and I’ve always done it with love, my family and friends always trusted me to care for their pets since I was younger and i’ve always enjoyed it. I love every part of taking care of animals whether its grooming, bathing oral medications administration etc… Animals will always hold a special place in my heart. My schedule is very flexible, I usually stay home and do online school work most of the time, so I’m available really anytime on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. I will care for the pets by making sure they are well fed, kept clean and healthy. I live in a very safe neighborhood with a nice park down the street. I have an animal friendly household with fences outside to ensure that the pets wont wander off.
“This past weekend, Desi and Marilyn watched our sweet pup Maddie who is disabled. She is paralyzed from the waist down and can only walk with the help of wheels. We have never left her in anyone’s care. From the start, both Desi and Marilyn made us feel so comfortable with leaving her in their care. Throughout the weekend, they sent updates with pictures and videos of Maddie. They made us feel so at ease and relieved, we really appreciated all they did. When we picked Maddie up, she was happy and we could tell she had been very well cared for. We would recommend Desi and Marilyn as dog sitters for anyone’s beloved pup!! They are fantastic people and full of love and compassion for all types of dogs.”
“Maisha is the best dog sitter ever! She sends updates/pictures often, and ensured that my fur baby was having the best time. He enjoyed his stay!”
“Carolina was absolutely wonderful with Brady! She is so caring and attentive, and it really shows how much she loves what she does. She was responsive from the very beginning, keeping me updated. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was with someone so reliable and thoughtful. I could tell Brady was happy and well taken care of. I would highly recommend Carolina to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and truly caring sitter!”
“Cosmo had a wonderful time with Sriram and his family. We got regular updates including photos. They were very flexible to accommodate all our requests to keep him and us at ease. We will certainly send Cosmo back to them whenever we need boarding for him. Highly recommend them.”
“Jillian was absolutely wonderful! She was so warm and inviting, and Rosie took to her immediately. She kept me updated throughout my trip, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Rosie came home happy, healthy, and comfortable, and I could tell she had been very well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Jillian and would happily trust her with Rosie again!”
“Brain was very easy to work with. Meet and Greet was super easy and the actual boarding was super smooth. Max seems to have had a great time with Brian. I would highly recommend Brian.”
“Faith was an amazing choice to look after my dog! She was very flexible with me needing someone at the last minute. During the stay she kept me updated with lots of pictures! I will definitely go to her next time I need a sitter.”
“Kinjal was amazing with Timmy. This is our first time leaving him with someone other than family so we were a bit worried. After the inital meetup, talking with Kinjal, and seeing where he would be staying, my worries started to fade. During the boarding, Kinjal communicated daily with photo and video updates and frequently asked questions about Timmy in order to provide the best care of him. We will definitely go with Kinjal again. Highly recommended!”
“Tammy was so helpful talking care of our dog with little notice! Doo seemed to enjoy his time, and it sounds like he got lots of walks. Tammy was great about sending pictures and keeping us updated. Thanks, Tammy! We look forward to Doo’s next stay with you!”

“We are so incredibly happy with our dog’s experience with Rhea and Michael. They were highly responsive the entire time from the initial booking request to even after picking up our baby from them. It is so clear how much Rhea and Michael love dogs and they showed such great care of my Max from the second they met. They gave us such a peace of mind while we were away for a few days; we didn’t have to worry once if everything was okay. They sent frequent updates and photos which really put us at ease and allowed us to enjoy our trip. Rhea and Michael will be our first call next time we need someone to watch Max!”
“Andrew took great care of our senior Pitty Sommy, he immediately struck us as very friendly and felt like extended family throughout the whole process. His home is beautiful with a gated yard for plenty of space and grass for our Sommy. Andrew made sure to update us with photos throughout the stay, and made sure Sommy was well taken cared for. We will definitely book with Andrew again, without hesitation.”
“Jonathan was great with our senior dog! We got regular updates and he followed all of the special feeding and med instructions that we left with our old lady. Looking forward to the next stay!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Cedar Grove
Auggie and I had an amazing experience with Heather and her family. This was the first time my pup had stayed with anyone new outside of my own family, so I was a little nervous about him being anxious. We did a meet-and-greet the week before, and Heather (and her very sweet family) made me feel completely comfortable and confident. During the stay, I received many fantastic, detailed updates and photos of Auggie’s long weekend of fun. Heather has great, well fenced yard that Auggie enjoyed many zoomies in - even on the day it rained. Auggie can be challenging to walk in public due to some dog reactivity, but Heather took great care to follow the tips I passed along when I dropped him off and I felt totally at ease. 100/10 would (and absolutely will) be returning again!
I have used Tracy and Steve multiple times and every time Django comes back happy and relaxed. This time they had the unique experience of caring for Nonny… Who is a very “special dog”. They were patient and kind with her and it gave me great confidence in their care! Will book again 🥰
Molly was amazing! She was super communicative before and during our dog’s stay. He got plenty of exercise and play and snuggles. It was such a relief knowing he was getting such great care while we were away. I’d absolutely recommend Molly and will definitely book again in the future!
The best boarding I’ve had thus far! I was super emotional leaving my little guy behind for 9 nights but Darien immediately sent me videos and pictures and made me feel like I could trust her. 10/10 service, Darien and her family went above and beyond when it came to my frenchie baby. The bath before pickup was also amazing, icing on the cake! I will definitely be using her services again.
Bell was wonderful and I appreciate her accepting my last minute request to watch my separation anxiety prone Chihuahua/Yorky mix. She sent me several pictures and kept me updated throughout the stay. She was able to keep my pup calm and happy while I was working. I highly recommend and would use again!
John was a delight, my fur baby PJ stayed a week with him and had a great time during playtime and the daily walks. It was so reassuring to know PJ was in good hands. He sent pictures throughout to show me how much fun they wsre having. I've already booked him for another stay.
Valerie was great with my senior dog, Gerry, who she watched for about a week while I was on vacation. Between his age and his separation anxiety, Gerry isn’t always the easiest pup, but Valerie knew how to let him settle in — when to love him up, when to distract him, and when to give him space. She always updated me on how he was doing, and worked with me to find solutions if he seemed particularly grumpy. Gerry also has a bit of a complicated medication regimen, which Valerie handled perfectly. She clearly has experience will all types of dogs and their needs, and I felt confident leaving Gerry in her capable hands. I’d absolutely call Valerie again!
Veronica took great care of my Nutmeg! Knowing I was going to be away for two weeks, I was nervous about leaving her at a boarding facility where she's been stressed when I've taken shorter trips. After a meet & greet, I was already at ease. In addition to loving my sweet, old girl, I also received photo, and text updates. I'm so thankful I found Veronica, and look forward to future trips where I'll know Nutmeg is loved, and care for.
Leaving Rosie with Vanessa and her family while we were away for our wedding and honeymoon was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment she arrived, Rosie was beyond excited to be there and was treated like part of the family. Vanessa kept us updated with so many photos and videos of Rosie playing, relaxing, and clearly having the best time. It made being away from our girl so much easier and gave us complete peace of mind knowing she was so loved and well cared for. We could truly enjoy our wedding and honeymoon without worrying for a second. We’re incredibly grateful for the kindness, communication, and genuine care Vanessa and her family showed Rosie. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again and recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional pet care!
