“Vanessa and her partner took great care of my little Mochi for a week and half. They went above and beyond what i would expect from any dog sitter. They made sure to exercise Mochi multiple times a day. They also taught my little one new tricks! Truly amazing. I had also left Mochi with a set of new treats I was hoping she would enjoy. Unbeknownst to all of us, Mochi ended up getting some diarrhea from those treats. Luckily, Vanessa was able to weed out the culprit very quickly, allowing Mochi to regain her appetite after discarding the treats. Vanessa made sure to send me plenty pictures and videos of my little one. Mochi felt right at home with them. I can't stress enough what a blessing it has been to have Vanessa take care of my little one in my absence. :D”
“Sarah is great in communication. She was very caring with our dog Frankie and made her feel very comfortable. Frankie came home and slept for hours as she had so much fun hanging out with Sarah. We highly recommend her and will be having Frankie stay with Sarah again very soon. Thank you”
“Tyler was amazing with my Lobo and Tango! He was a great communicator and I was ever grateful for the flexibility as my travel plans change unexpectedly a few times while I was away. I could tell they were truly cared for and a spoiled just as much (if not more) than would have been with me! Highly recommend and will be trying Tyler again for my next dog care needs”
About: I’m a lifelong dog owner with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds, from energetic puppies to quirky seniors. I work from home, so I’m able to offer tons of attention, exercise, and consistency throughout the day. Having lived with everything from labs to Pyrenees mixes, I understand the importance of meeting each dog’s unique needs, whether that’s structured walks, gentle senior care, or patient socialization for shy pups. I’m comfortable with big dogs and independent personalities, and my own experience training puppies and supporting older dogs means your pup is in caring, knowledgeable hands.What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for a variety of breeds—including puppies and seniors—and my work-from-home flexibility means dogs get real companionship and attention all day. I understand big, independent, and quirky personalities, and I prioritize individualized care, from puppy training to gentle support for older dogs. I take the time to get to know every dog, building trust through patience, routine, and play. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life, not an afterthought. Since I work from home, I’m able to integrate walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day—whether it’s a morning stroll, afternoon games in the park, or relaxed evenings together. My routine is flexible, so dogs always get outside for fresh air and exercise and receive plenty of attention between my work sessions. On weekends, I love exploring new neighborhoods, local parks, or heading to the beach—always bringing dogs along for new adventures. Whether it’s active pups needing stimulation or seniors who prefer a calm presence, I adapt my days to make sure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and part of my everyday world. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and integrated into my daily routine—regular walks to nearby parks or the beach, supervised playtime, and cozy rest spots throughout my home. I keep to each dog’s familiar schedule as much as possible, including feeding times, exercise, and any training or medication routines. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, making sure pets feel secure in their own environment. I follow all instructions closely, from special diet needs to unique quirks or favorite toys, and keep in touch with updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and cared for. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own—with patience, structure, and genuine affection—whether they’re here for a day, a weekend, or longer.
“Will definitely board with Nola and Damian again! From the meet and greet to picking our dog up, they were very easy to communicate with and took great care of Bori.”
“Svetlana did an amazing job taking care of Kaia! She absolutely adored Kaia and sent so many updates. We felt at ease and did not have to worry about Kaia during our time away.”
“Wonderful as always! Penny was so excited when we pulled up in front of Akhil’s house. She definitely remembered him and knew she was in for a great weekend! Got updates throughout her stay. Would fully recommend!”
“Guillermo did a fantastic job with my dog, Kiara. She gets nervous around new people, so it’s always tough for me to leave her. I booked an overnight stay with Guillermo to see if they’d be a good fit, and it went perfectly. As soon as I arrived, I felt comfortable. Guillermo showed me around the house so I could see where Kiara would stay, which put me at ease. Kiara quickly warmed up to him and didn’t seem upset when I left. During the day, Guillermo sent thoughtful updates and photos, which really helped me relax. When I came back to pick up Kiara, she was happy to see me. She gave me a few kisses and then settled on the couch like she was at home. I really appreciated Guillermo’s care, communication, and the calm, friendly atmosphere he created. I have already booked with him again.”
“Betsy and her family were wonderful hosts for our pup. Betsy sent pics and videos, and Ronja seemed to have a fantastic time. Great communication, we felt safe leaving our dog in Betsy's care.”
“felice was amazing with joy! it was so much easier leaving for vacation knowing that joy was in good hands. really appreciated how detailed she was & it was clear from the start that joy was well taken care of. i’ll definitely be using her in the future:)”
“Lynne was the best dog sitter we have ever had. We accidentally waited until the last minute before the holidays to find someone and we are so thankful she had space and took our pups in right away. She was so easy to work with on booking, schedules, communication, and she spoiled our pups like no other. She even made a special grocery trip to get snacks they would love. She sent us “pup-date” photos everyday and it warmed our hearts to see our pups and know how happy they were in her care. With her patience and kindness Lynne was able to bond with our temperamental chihuahua on day one-an extremely rare occurrence! We can’t praise her enough and hope to be lucky enough to book her again in the future!! Thank you Lynne!”
“Yan took great care of my dog sparkles! She was clear with communication and coordination, and I got frequent updates. Her apartment seemed comfortable with lots of space for my pup to lounge around, and I know he was same and well cared for.”
“Antonio was wonderful! He took great care of Penny, and provided so many great updates over the weekend. I could tell in the pictures how happy and relaxed Penny was :) he took great care of her! I will definitely book again in the future!”
“Peyton took great care of my puppy, Luna while I was away for the weekend. She was very reliable and attentive and I could tell Luna was very happy and content to be in her care. She sent lots of photos and updates which I really appreciated, and I’d definitely recommend Peyton to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Isabella is amazing at taking care of Marvin and Mellow. We shared our concerns when it came to us being nervous but she gave us loads of reassurance and kept us up to date. This was our second time with her, and she was great! No complaints.”
“We can't thank Lori G. enough for taking care of our precious pups while we were on vacation! Lori provided frequent updates including multiple pictures and videos which made us feel connected to our pups while away! She kept our pups active by bringing them on walks and played with them inside and outside her home in her fenced in back yard! Lori G. is a wonderful person with a special love for dogs, and quite evident that our pups were more than well cared for!!! We most certainly will have Lori G. take care of our pups again!!! Thank you so much Lori G. (:-)”
“Ann took wonderful care of Daisy for over a week. From the start, she was warm, kind, and very easy to communicate with. Ann and Jim created a great environment for Daisy, and we always felt she was in good hands. Ann made sure Daisy got plenty of time outside, including long walks and lots of opportunities to explore. It was clear that she genuinely cared about making sure Daisy was happy and comfortable. I would absolutely recommend Ann to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable sitter.”
“Jess was amazing with our pup. I was able to enjoy my vacation without having to work for a second. We received updates and pictures frequently, which we loved. Will definitely use her for our future dog sitting needs!”
Chelsea pet parents share their Rover experiences
It was Mochi's first time with Mengzhen. There was another dog staying with her at the same time. We were weary of the breed but Mengzhen eased our concerns and kept them apart. She also kept us updated with several pictures and videos, which is always greatly appreciated. She and Alex were great Would highly recommend.
Josiah and Arlene were AMAZING!! So glad to have found them. They were so sweet with Nova, very communicative, and so easy to work with. Nova absolutely loved his time with them and he can be a high maintence boy!! They handled him and his anxiety in crowds and gave him the best weekend!! Will definitely use them agaib
Aurora was the BEST! Ollie stayed with her for the first time for 12 days and she completely eased any nerves I had about leaving him alone. I got daily photos with updates and Ollie was the happiest pup playing with Auroras dog and the other pups that stopped by. Will 100% be using her again!
Our dog stayed with Radka for two weeks. She was excellent at keeping in touch, sending us daily pictures and detailed accounts of his day. She also checked in regularly about his eating and pooping issues and was very responsive and dedicated to his well-being. I know she not only met his basic needs but also provided him with lots of love and attention, which is really what he needs. It really felt like he was on vacation, too - what a relief! We are so grateful for all the care and thought she put into this and we will for sure ask gor her help watching Pumpkin again.
Nolan and Damien were excellent caregivers. Fitzgerald really seemed to have a great time. They communicated effectively throughout the whole process and even flexed so I can figure out a different drop off schedule last minute. They sent pictures and gave updates on how he was doing and Fitzgerald came home happy and healthy. We would absolutely recommend them to anybody looking for a great set of caregivers for their loved ones.
