About: I'm home fulltime so your dog won’t be alone! i love to go for walks, give belly rubs + keep them entertained and feeling loved! I'm new to Rover but use it for my dog and figured i’d also be a sitter! i’ve mainly cared for my own or my friend's dogs either in their home or mine and we always have a blast! i’ve taken many courses on dog behavior and My pup is actually trained for therapy, service and he’s a Canine good citizen! ( a 6 year old 22 lb Cockapoo who is super sweet) I consider dogs as members of the family, and know they have their own unique personalities + special needs! looking forward to hanging with your pup while you're busy doing Human things! I work from home fulltime so your dog won’t be alone! my schedule is super flexible too and would revolve around your dogs schedule :) i live in a two story house. no fence in my backyard so we would go for leashed walks. My dog sleeps with me in my room on his bed. your dog can sleep with us in their bed/crate. your preference
“Christina was awesome! She took care of Meeko like one of her own and I’m so appreciative of that. She kept me updated throughout his stay and sent us pictures. He will definitely be back to hangout with Bentley and Dixen!”
“Gail did a great job with Raven. We usually are worried about whether Raven will adjust to a new sitter, but Gail quickly sent us pictures and a note letting us know how quickly she bonded with Raven and how calm she had become.”
“Karma absolutely loves Diana! He gets more excited to board with her than to come back home. Diana treats him like family—providing frequent updates with photos and videos, and even spoiling him with healthy fruits and veggies. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and thoughtful sitter!”
“Jaki watched our two cockapoos Macy and Phoebe for us while we went away for my sister in laws wedding weekend. She made everything so stress free and comforting for us! They had so much fun and we were updated the entire time with photos and videos which made us feel so at ease knowing our fur babies were having a blast and being snuggled just like they would be at home. Would recommend Jaki to anyone in the area looking for a reliable and trustworthy dog sitter! Thank you so much for everything!!!”
“Michele is very responsive and also excellent with keeping us updated on how our 2 furry ones were doing. So glad we found her and our furry ones grew fond of her. We definitely recommend her to others and we will always contact her for our future stays.”
About: I've loved dogs my whole life, and I've watched family and friends' fur babies throughout the years! From occasional walks to dog-sitting, I take care of your pup like they're my own! As a recent graduate from PA school, I'll have plenty of free time to walk your dog and spend time with them as I'm studying for my board exams. My building is dog friendly, and my apartment has plenty of space for your dog to play and live in. I also live close to lots of parks, trails, and neighborhoods to make sure your pup gets plenty of outside time!
“Dalton and Leia were extremely accommodating and kind. They took great care of our dog and gave him TLC during his stay. Will definitely not think twice about booking with them!”
About: I've trained my dog myself from 16 weeks old to now by taking four separate courses at St. Huberts. He has allergies to food and the environment, so I'm well-versed with these special care needs. My family is not experienced with dogs, so I have trained my dog to behave in order to be allowed around them. I take my own dog for at 30-60 minute walks two times a day over the weekend and after work during the week. Our walks are very structured, and I allow him to have sniffing breaks frequently where appropriate. We work on training every walk and play fetch for additional stimulation. I don't have a yard, but I play fetch and tug in my home to do make sure they get stimulation. I usually take my little guy to the nearby park every day. I will follow whatever rules you have set forth.

Kaylee S.
“Kaylee would be an excellent pet caregiver. Her attention and dedication towards animals is remarkable. Kaylee lived with us for almost 2 years during which time she formed a very special bond with both of our golden-doodles. Play time and livings were a daily routine with my Lexi and Cali. She also enjoyed walking them several times per week. She would even brush their teeth and comb out their coats. When it was time for her to move on because of school, my girls missed her dearly. Still to this day we have play dates so she can come back to visit. Any animal would be very fortunate to have a home with her.”

Dominic L.
“Dom is a truly reliable and compassionate pet sitter who has watched my French bulldog overnight on several occasions. My pup can struggle with separation anxiety, but Dom has always handled him with patience, care, and a calming presence that puts both of us at ease. I always know my dog is in great hands when he’s with Dom. As a close friend, I’ve also had the chance to watch Dom raise and train his own very energetic puppy. His consistency, patience, and understanding of dog behavior really shine through—he’s a natural with animals and always puts their well-being first. I highly recommend Dom to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and genuinely caring sitter!”

Dalton and Leia were amazing and so accommodating for Nellie! We met ahead of time to ensure that Nellie would get along with their two pups, Zero and Ernie. Nellie doesn’t always get along with other dogs, but Dalton and Leia made sure that she was comfortable and integrated her into their pack in the perfect way! They have both been around dogs their whole lives and it shows! They sent me daily updates with photos. They also made sure to give her her daily pills. I will definitely use them again!
Diana is amazing! She sent me photos and videos of my dog, Gracie, daily and was always quick to reply to my messages. I can see how happy Gracie was and how much she loved being there (she didn't want to leave when I came to pick her up lol). Diana was wonderful with drop off and pick up and made everything easy. I was nervous to try someone new, but Diana was so accommodating which put me at ease and I was able to enjoy my trip knowing Gracie would be well taken care of. You can see how much Diana loves the dogs and the wonderful care she gives to each one. I will definitely be using her again and telling all my friends with dogs how special she is. :)
Shannon and Micheal took such great care of our border collie! They provided videos and photos each day to ensure us of how our dog was doing while also messaging about his day. They were also very kind and we felt zero stress when having to leave our dog with them. They were also very flexible given our travel plans and picking and dropping off. 5 plus stars - recommend to any others wanting someone to take care of their dog.
Santiago really was amazing with my fur baby. He sent multiple updates every day. I know Aston was super comfortable just by looking at his pictures. Even when I went to pick him up, my baby was barking at me like I was a stranger 😂. I’ll definitely be using Santiago again. Thank you for everything!
Robert and Bianca were wonderful to work with. They met with me before the trip to make sure my nervous pup was comfortable with them. They sent photos throughout my trip, took her on lots of walks, played with her, and gave her daily medication. Nellie had an amazing time and even got to snuggle in their bed at night. You can tell that Robert and Bianca are true animal lovers and treated Nellie as their own. Already planning my next trip to use Robert + Bianca again!
