“Steven was wonderful with Luna. I could tell she was very loved and taken care of while she stayed with them. He asked all the right questions to let me know she should be safe and comfortable, and understood when my brain was a mess and I forgot to bring her bed and kennel. He kept me up to date every day with wonderful pictures to let me know she was doing well and happy, and responded very quickly any time I reached out. You can tell that Steven and his family genuinely care for and love your pets as if they were their own. I would highly recommend Steven to anyone who asks or need a place for their pup to stay!”


“Kristen provided loving care for my 15 yr old Beagle, while also following instructions with his food plan and meds. Additionally, she provided lots of stimulating activities for this little sniffer, including her own little chihuahua, Cashew, and other little boarding doggies. (My little guy gets more stimulation in her apartment than he gets from me!) While Kristen is a great boarder, for my occasional trips away, I am now considering her as a day care provider too. And she is very accommodating and understanding of trip delays, as well. Will be sure to book with Kristen again soon. (Her own little baby boy loves dogs too).”


“My dog was very happy with her. She took a good care of my little dog. I 'm so happy to find such a loving and caring person to take care of my dog.”


“Angela took care of my two dogs, Kylo and Loki. It is my first time using this app and the services. She went above my expectations. She sends me pictures and updates about them. She is also very responsive and flexible. Thank you.”


“Freya had such a great time with Kim! The photo updates were great, and I could tell that Freya LOVED having access to a fenced-in backyard. She can't wait to come visit again!”


“i'm extremely pleased with Melissa and Daniels care for Phoebe. She really enjoyed playing with their dogs and had supervised time exploring their backyard pond, which was a wonderful experience for her. Melissa kept me reassured with daily updates and photos, making it easy to feel confident that Phoebe was happy and well cared for. Knowing they often foster dogs and have extensive experience with pit bulls gave me extra peace of mind. I would definitely reach out to Melissa and Daniel again for boarding and highly recommend them to other pet owners.”


“I can’t say enough good things about Ivelisse! She took such amazing care of Omen while I was away. She was kind, patient, and genuinely loved animals. She was so attentive to his needs, gave him lots of love and playtime, and even went out of her way to feed him when he ran out of food, something I truly appreciated. I felt completely at peace knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, thoughtful, and caring with pets!”


“As a new dog owner I was a little apprehensive going on vacation and leaving my pup with someone else. But I came home to one happy pup...maybe a little too happy...I'm not so sure he wanted to leave. Cheryl and her family made Schnebly feel right at home. I will definitely be booking with Cheryl again and would highly recommend her to anyone who wants the best care for their pooch when they are away.”


“Sam is truly was an angel on earth when we left our mini golden doodle Veer with her for 4 days. She was so loving and took care of Veer like her own. She asked questions, which eased our tensions, and sent us daily pictures of Veer doing a new kind of activity. Her daughter is so adorable and lovely and played with veer so well as well. We couldn’t have found a better person to take care of Veer and we will DEFINITELY be rebooking sam in the future. If I could give her 100 stars, even that would not be enough! <3”

“Karren was amazing with our dog Cody! She was so kind, knowledgeable, and clearly loves dogs. Cody came home happy, clean, and well cared for. She kept us updated with pictures and videos, and even checked him for ticks. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Karren!”


“I dropped off my dog Bagel to Tarisa and her children yesterday. Bagel immediately fell in love with Tarisa's family. She sent me photos during the day and were accommodating about my pick up time. When I took Bagel this morning, it was obvious that he was already bonded with Tarisa's daughters. Thank you so much and I will no double ask Tarisa for help in the future.”


“Anwar is AMAZING!! I have never ever used a kennel or any service like this before. I’m was so nervous because I have not one but THREE pets that needed to be boarded together. Anwar made me feel so at ease with leaving my furbabies with him. You can tell how much he loves animals and they are drawn to him. He posts about them on Instagram and sent me several photos keeping me updated on how they were doing. Will definitely be using him again! I highly recommend him.”


“We were very nervous about leaving Shelby but Monica really helped ease our nerves. She clearly treated Shelby as if she was one of her own dogs. We got pictures whenever we checked in. It’s reassuring to know that our fur baby is well cared for when we are away.”


“Kathleen made our pup Inu feel right at home. We can tell she gave Inu lots of love—he is coming home a very happy dog. Will definitely reach out to Kathleen again in the future for Inu’s pet care.”


“Zoe took the best care of my dog! She updated me every day on how she was doing and treated her like her own. One of the best sitters I’ve ever had for my dog!”


About: I've fed dogs based off their schedules that their owner informs me, walks with them, sometimes runs so they can get some more exercise. I am not a trainer, but I will give them attention and I love to follow the rules. I work full time in New York, so my availability can vary. I'm looking for a flexible schedule, sometimes can be steady in the weekday, depending on the month. I have a townhouse in Mill Hill area, and a park which is at the end of the block. I live by myself so I do not have housemates. I do not have a large yard, but I do dog sit for my best friend in New York at least once every other month.

Central West dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sade did a wonderful job with my shih tzu Moses and kept me up to date on how he was doing with messages and pictures. She took him out for frequent breaks and long walks, which he thoroughly enjoys. I would definitely recommend her for dog sitting!

Lesley was great with our two dogs. She was very communicative and sent frequent updates and pictures. My little Brody has a bit of a nervous stomach in new settings and she took great care of him.

I would recommend Anwar to any and everyone! We had a death in the family and had to drive around to NC with just a week notice. During times like this, we are grateful that we found a sitter that is reliable and we can absolutely trust to care for Otis.

My boys truly have a 2nd home with Monica! When your pets come home happy and jump right back into their regular routine it’s a tail, tell sign that they were loved and cared for they way you would! We had an almost 3 hour delay due to luggage. She was amazing with communication and flexible! That meant more than she knows!

Kristy was great! Kobe had a wonderful time with her. He even started whining when it was time to go home. Kristy also sent us plenty of photos of Kobe playing in the yard and her bed. Would definitely use her again!

Courtney was incredible with my dog! She was warm and welcoming and took fantastic care of Lulu while I was away. She will be my first pick when I need to go out of town again. Thanks you so much!!

Joselyn took terrific care of our two little dogs. Our dogs have stayed with Joselyn twice now and both visits were terrific.

Patrick was wonderful. He treated Kayce as if she was his own dog. He communicated daily with pictures and/or video so we felt completely comfortable wiyh leaving her there. She got plenty of daily exercise. We couldn’t be any more pleased.

Everything you'd expect and want in someone to care for your dog. Great communication, safe and comfortable home. Accommodated a last minute reservation with ease. Thank you so much!

Lauren was excellent, she took great care of our dog Rambo. She was very prompt with her communication and met every single request without any hesitation. We were so happy and relieved to receive daily updates via pictures of Rambo along with her dogs during his stay. I am very satisfied and look forward to using Lauren’s service for future boarding/pet-sitting needs for Rambo.
