“Carol was EXCELLENT with our dog. She was available for a meet and great ahead of time and watched him for a full week. During that week, she treated him with the utmost love and attention, truly as if it were her own dog. She was also very responsive to messages and sent updates as requested. We felt so at ease and comfortable knowing our fur baby was in good hands while we traveled. One of the best rover experiences we’ve had to date! Will absolutely use her again.”
“Bydette and her family took such great care of our dog. They gave her the same love and attention that we would and were happy to keep her on a similar schedule so it was an easy transition home. We plan to have Bydette watch our dog again soon.”
“Accommodated with short notice. Encouraged a meet and greet, even came to us due to our schedule. Immediately felt at ease leaving Fletcher for the day. He looked happy in the photos sent.”
“Samantha was wonderful with Nellie! She sent updates throughout the day, gave my dog her meds and nellie settled right in! She was also very flexible with scheduling, due to an unexpected winter storm. Will 100% use Sam again to watch Nellie!”

About: Looking for someone to spoil your fur baby? I've owned multiple pets over my life and supported others in their pet relationships through sitting, boarding, training support, and BIG LOVE! We all need a kind word, gentle touch, and stability in our lives. I'm here to help you foster that environment and keep your pets cared for in the way family only can. Drop them off, have me over, or let’s go play! I can't wait to meet your loved one. I work from home five days a week and have plenty of time to play. Solo life affords me the ability to also take unplanned adventures. I have a one bedroom apartment, no other pets or humans. The community has an unfenced large front courtyard where your pup can get lots of attention from my neighbors if they like! I've fostered here and everyone is super supportive and animal friendly. I also have kennels, playpens, carpen, seatbelts and everything needed to keep your pet safe.
“Very responsive and friendly, loved receiving updates, pictures, and videos. First time boarding our puppy and Jonathan made it all very easy and comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands.”
About: I've taken care of lots of friend's and family's dogs over the years. I also had a dog for 14 years and just got another puppy two years ago. My family and I love dogs and care for them deeply. Dogs love our fenced in backyard. I am usually home all day. I will treat your dog with the utmost care and give them lots of love and attention! For walks I am available early in the morning or after 4:30. I am usually available Friday for mid-day walks. I can also do either Mondays or Thursdays, depending on the week for mid-day walks (Mon & Fri or Thur & Fri) I have a dog of my own. As he gets older he needs me a bit less but it's a daily part of my life to take care of dogs. I had a dog before him for 13.5 years. I have a fenced in yard and a neutered male who is a very sweet Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. He is very gentle and friendly and 2 years old. He loves other dogs and he can be crated if the need is there.
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
“Paul is excellent! Dunley is a 5-year-old lab/cattle dog with high energy. Paul made sure Dunley got enough exercise, walks, and plenty of fetch. He came back happy. I will definitely use Paul again!”
“Lana was great with our dog! He’s an energetic lab who can be a handful, but Lana managed him perfectly! She sent us pictures and videos of them on walks and playing ball every day we were gone, and it was so reassuring!”

Mike did an amazing job taking care of Bella while we were away. He was incredibly attentive and clearly cared about her well-being. What really stood out was how detailed his updates were — he kept us informed about her walks, bathroom breaks, meals, and overall behavior, and he included plenty of pictures each time. It gave us real peace of mind knowing Bella was in such good hands. Bella looked happy and well cared for when we got back, and it was obvious she was comfortable with Mike. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and communicative pet sitter. We’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future!
Linus stayed with Sue and her family for 12 days over the holidays & we couldn't have been happier with her care. She texted regularly and sent photos and it was clear that Linus was getting all the love and attention he would get from us. We're thrilled with Sue & will definitely use her again.
Cherie and her family took great care of our furry baby. .they provided a nice safe place for him while away from home. He looked very happy when I picked him up. I appreciate all the pictures and feedback I was getting during his stay. Looking forward to see you soon. Thank you ( special thanks to your adorable son for being so sweet and playing with Apollo )
Alka was extremely professional and communicative. She sent several photos and videos each day of the stay and responded very quickly. I could tell my dog was very comfortable with her and well cared for. She only keeps one dog at a time so you know they’re getting the best attention possible.
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!
