“Natasha and her family took care of our dogs like they were members of their family. Other places offered our dogs to " let out" every few hours from a shed. Natasha looked after our partially deff and blind senior citizen pug and our ball obsessed boarder collie in their own home. The dogs were always around someone who could play and love on them.”

“Lina and her family were so excited to have our kitten cookie for a few days while on vacation. She was informative and sent pictures of cookie while on vacation. Playtime with her kiddos was her favorite! They loved her and will be booking again in the future.”

“Our doodle had a great visit with Christine and Charles. We received regular updates and pictures on how everything was going. Their location & setup provides everything a pet needs. Looking forward to using their services in the future.”

“This was my first time using Rover, and Nicholas was a Godsend! He was able to accommodate my last minute request, when a previous booking fell through. He was kind and flexible with my Roscoe! He sent me updates and pictures, which showed the Roscoe was doing well. I will definitely recommend and book with him again!”

“They took care of them very well! We were worried because our dogs have limited human interactions, but she assured us that they were really good. We were very scared putting them in someone else's care but they did above and beyond, especially for the dogs temperaments. Thank you!”

“Ashli is a wonderful person and pet sitter! She is so good with dogs and took great care of our dog, Zoey, like she was one of her own. Ashli also sent us so many sweet pictures and videos while we were away, which were so nice to receive. She also has a sweet dog, Fozzy, that Zoey got to hang with. We felt very safe and comforted knowing that Ashli was taking care of Zoey. We will definitely call her up again!”

“This was our first time leaving Pepe with a sitter and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, you never really know who you’re leaving your dog with. But Riley was exceptional from the very beginning. Even before I booked her, she helped me figure out how the app worked and made the whole process easy. During Pepe’s stay, she kept me 100% informed at all times with photos, videos, and messages. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. I truly felt peace of mind knowing Pepe was in her hands. I have no doubt he was well cared for, and I would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Riley, for treating Pepe like your own dog, we truly appreciate it.”

“Myra was amazing. This was my first time using Rover and my first time boarding my dog in a new area. She put me at ease, it was clear she fell in love with Baxter, and she sent more pictures than I would have expected. Everything exceeded my expectations. I am already looking at upcoming dates and hoping she will be available for those.”

“I can't recommend James enough! This was our first time travelling without our dog, and James was very responsive to all of our requests. He sent us daily pictures of her which really helped us since this was the first time we were away from her since adopting. Our dog came home sleepy and happy and it was obvious to us that she was well cared for and enjoyed her time. We're already planning our next trip so that we can book James again!”

“Yana is amazing! She took such great care of my dog and sent daily pictures and updates which gave me peace of mind that he was happy and healthy while I was away. Highly recommend her!”

“This was a repeat booking for our 10 month old puppy. He looked like he was having an absolute blast and came home and went promptly to sleep. Thanks for taking good care of our guy.”

“Julie and her family took wonderful care of Willa! She got to go on plenty of walks and enjoyed lots of snuggles. Julie sent pictures and was easy to communicate with. Willa came home happy and we will definitely book with her again!”

About: Over the past couple of years, I’ve had the joy of caring for family and friends dogs when needed, giving their dogs a loving home away from home. I work from home so I have flexibility of time and a lot of love to give to your furry friend! Available for boarding any day of the week. My fenced-in back yard offers a safe environment for fresh air, fun, and exercise. Dogs allowed on furniture. I have a two year old lab who loves other dogs! I can also crate if needed.
“Ava was fantastic with our two huskies! We got lots of pictures of them having a blast in the backyard with new friends. We are grateful to have found a local sitter!”


“We’ve been fortunate to have Jessica watch our dog on three occasions now. Each time, our dog comes back in great spirits and appears so well cared for. Jessica is a fantastic communicator and sends updates and pictures frequently. She has become a go-to for our family!”

“Brooke sent us pictures regularly. Our dogs looked happy and relaxed. Went we went to pick them up they were glad to see us, but also at home with Brooke. We will certainly book Brooke again.”

“Jenny sent me updates and pictures of my dog while I was gone. She took my dog with her throughout parts of the day around the stables. Drop off and pick up went smoothly. She was great!”
“Angel seemed very happy to stay with Indira for a week. Indira was flexible and accommodating with my work travel and her place was clean, organized, and a good calm space for my pup. She reached out when Angel was having a hard time and was able to resolve the issue quickly with some feedback. Would definitely use her again.”

“Laura did an amazing job caring for our dog while we were on vacation. He came home happy from spending the week playing with Laura and her dogs—she even managed to brush him!! Looking at the photos she sent every day, we kept commenting to ourselves “he’s clearly on his own vacation, too!””
