Donna provided very special care to Cocoa. She is a senior pup, and we are forever grateful that Donna provided updates as soon as anything of note happened. She was super responsive to all messages, and Cocoa was comfortable for the entire stay. We may not have Cocoa for much longer, and we are grateful that Donna was extra attentive to her needs and provided the best care possible. Many, many thanks.

Can’t overstate how great Christine was with Ellie. Ellie is often shy with new people, but Christine was patient and clearly made Ellie feel incredibly at home in a shockingly fast period of time. What’s more, when our flight back got cancelled, Christine didn’t even hesitate to accommodate our delay. And Christine was very diligent in giving us updates during the stay.

Matthew with family is very accommodating and will entertain your dog for a great price! They went swimming and on long walks. Executed Ozzie’s food plan and supplements no problem. They sleep in the bed with their dogs which my dog liked. I’ll be a return customer if they’ll have us.

Alyce - truly loves dogs and it was clear throughout Blues stay! He had the best time playing in the backyard with Mookie and Alyce went above and beyond to make Blue feel at home and keep him entertained. She even gave him new plush toys and rawhides throughout his stay. Derek and I were updated frequently with Lots of adorable updates with pics and videos of Blue enjoying his time at what we came to call “the rover equivalent to Dog Disneyland” 10 star stay and we will definitely be booking Blue a visit with Alyce and Mookie again!

Laurie and Rich were so kind and caring for our little Frodo. From their photos, he was clearly comfortable in their home and yard. They kept us updated with his adjustment as it was his first time with them. When they expressed concern when he did not eat his dinner, we assured them that he does skip meals. We were lucky to find them available for our mini vacation. Thank you, Laurie and Richard

After 8 years of using Rover and trying many sitters, Laura stands out as the best. Thanks again, Laura, for taking great care of our girl!

About: I provide dependable, attentive care and will treat your pet like they’re my own. As an active-duty Army professional, I’m responsible, punctual, and committed to following your pet’s routine exactly as instructed. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit so you always know how your pet is doing. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I’m happy to adjust to their individual needs and energy level. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make sure your pet has a fun, stress-free experience. As an active-duty U.S. Army Soldier, I take commitment and reliability seriously. My work schedule follows consistent weekly shifts averaging 6-8 hours, so I know my availability well in advance. I’ll be away during my scheduled work hours on weekdays, but I provide attentive care before and after work with walks, meals, playtime, and lots of love. Weekends allow for even more one-on-one time with your pet, and I’ll always communicate my schedule clearly to ensure we’re a great fit. I prioritize safety, comfort, and trust with every pet I care for. I follow all owner instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, keep pets secure during walks and visits, and provide regular updates with photos so owners feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.

Elizabeth was FANTASTIC! She was so thorough in understanding Hudson’s needs, sent tons of picture and video updates, and kept him entertained all weekend. She even flexed with our schedule to make sure he was taken care of no matter when our travel plans shifted due to all the uncertainty in the area. 10/10 would book her again and again!

About: I’m an animal lover that will take care of your pet like my own. Although I will care for your pet, I live with my partner, three year old son, my dog Ares, and two cats. We’re a family that loves all animal and are opening our home to extend that care. All pets I’ve cared for tend to leave my home with new skills or new training while they’re with me as that’s very important to me. I am a fully time stay at home parent and have a very flexible schedule to care for your pet. My open availability can accommodate last minute requests. I live in an apartment with an indoor dog park, outdoor dog park onsite, and a large apartment with plenty of space. My pets are very friendly and take into visitors very well. Our son is also very good with animal of all sizes and respectful of boundaries.

Helena is so kind and responsive. She watched Charlie for 8 days and sent us pics/videos of Charlie’s daily walks and of Charlie having fun with her little dog.We also truly appreciated that she only took care of one dog at a time, so Charlie’s bed came back clean and didn’t have other pet hair. I would absolutely entrust Helena with Charlie again for a long term stay.

Shane went above and beyond while caring for my dog for nearly 2 weeks, providing daily medication, updates and photos each evening, and even a pup cup with a “6” candle on her birthday. Shane was patient and kind to my dog who can run anxious - top notch, a true professional, I couldn’t recommend more. Thank you!

Kerstyn was wonderful throughout the entire boarding process. She was so professional and responded to all of my texts promptly. My pup unfortunately was feeling a bit unwell during her stay, but Kerstyn was a pro at both managing my dog’s needs and putting me at ease. I would absolutely recommend booking with Kerstyn!

This was Ruby’s second stay with Spencer, and once again, she had the best time! Spencer sent us pictures every day, and it was clear Ruby was having the time of her life. Even better, there happened to be another black Lab named Ruby staying at the same time, which was so cute! Spencer was also incredibly flexible with drop-off and pick-up, which we really appreciated. We’re so happy to have found our go-to pet sitter and feel completely comfortable leaving Ruby with him. We’ll definitely be booking with Spencer again!

Highly Recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an absolutely wonderful experience with April! She dog-sat our 9 ½-year-old poodle, Zev, and we couldn't be happier with the care he received. April is incredibly nurturing, sweet, and attentive. Because Zev is a senior dog, we are always a bit extra careful, but April babied him, kept him well-fed, and took him out frequently, which was exactly what he needed. She truly went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and loved. April is hands-down the best of the best. We will definitely keep going back to her for future sits!
