“Kelly is the absolute best! Anytime we have to go out of town, we know that our dog is in the best of hands. Constant updates and communication the entire time. We are worried that our dog is always sad to come home because she gets so spoiled staying with Kelly.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for neighbors and family friends for 10 years. I love taking dogs for walks and even to the dog beach if possible. I have a 10 year old beagle/bulldog mix and also a 7 year old miniature terrier. I have done everything for dogs from, changing doggy diapers, cleaning any house accidents, giving them medication, laying with them if they can't fall asleep, running with them and even giving them a bath. I give lots of love and attention to any dog that I meet. Any dog that is put into my hands will have the greatest time and will be taken care of. I am very easygoing and will do anything to make sure your dog is safe. If scheduling for the weekend, I am available anytime of the day as long as given a heads up. Comfortable staying as long as necessary to accommodate your pet and make them feel safe and loved. If having the privilege to stay at a customers home or having the pet stay ay my own home, they will be taken care of the way you would take care of them. Want them to feel like nothing has changed and they are with someone that cares for them.

“Freddie had another great stay with Alex! Alex always makes us feel at ease leaving our pup with him by sending videos and photos every day. Freddie loves playing with Zana and Cocoa, and is always happy to see them all when we pull up. Thanks for having fun with Freddie this week, Alex!”
About: Since I work from home, I'm able to provide plenty of companionship, attention, supervision, and flexibility throughout the day. Your dog won't be left alone for long periods and will have someone nearby to provide care, playtime, and plenty of affection. My husband has been around dogs his entire life and has extensive experience raising and caring for them. Together, we're comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and energy levels. We understand that every dog has unique needs and routines, and we're committed to providing a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where they can feel right at home. We're especially attentive to puppies who need patience, consistency, and frequent supervision, as well as senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra comfort, and additional care. Our goal is to treat every dog like part of our family and give them the individual attention they deserve. I currently work from home, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I can provide dedicated spaces for their bed, crate, feeding area, and food and supplies. Since I am home throughout the day, I can maintain consistent routines for feeding, walks, playtime, grooming, and cleaning. I also make sure the home is safe and comfortable for pets by keeping medications, chemicals, toxic foods and plants, and small objects out of reach. My pets are an important part of my household, and I am able to provide them with the attention, companionship, and care they need throughout the day. I care for every pet as if they were part of my own family. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent companionship, supervision, and attention throughout the day.

I also understand that pets can feel anxious when their owners are away, so I provide a calm, patient environment and give them time to adjust.
“We are so happy we found Debbie! She watched our dog, Finn for a long weekend, and we felt so grateful that he was in her home while we were away. Debbie was so kind and caring with Finn. Finn also enjoyed lots of time in her fenced in backyard. He was even allowed to use her little doggie door to get there when he wanted to go out. We will book with Debbie again for sure- it was comforting to know he was safe and happy at Debbie’s house!”
“Absolutely love Anita! Her joy is so contagious 💛 I always relax knowing my doggy is taken sooooo well care of by her & her family!! Always a perfect stay!!! Thanks as usual 😃😃😃”
“Great couple to watch our pup. We wanted someone with a fenced in yard and other dogs to help socialize and tire our pup out and that’s exactly what we got. Our girl was happy to come back after the initial meet and greet and happy to book with them in the future.”
“Thomas was great. Our pup had such a great time and he treated him like family. Super responsive and accommodating and sent lots of photos. Will definitely bool Thomas again!”
“Abby was great and did a great job taking care of Benny! She was quick to respond to messages and gave us updates. She understood his anxiety and made sure to avoid any triggers. Would definitely recommend!!”
“Kimberly was great with my dog. I got updates daily with pictures. I can tell when my dog is stressed, and she didn’t appear stressed at all. All my instructions were followed, and medications given. I will use Kimberly again!”
“Leslie is amazing. She takes great care of our fur babies and always does a little extra that helps us know things will be fine while we are gone (water plants, bring in mail, etc).”
“I really appreciate Pat for taking very good care of lily during her stay. Appreciate receiving daily updates with pictures & videos. Will definitely get her service again in the future.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Columbia Station
This was our first time leaving Kylo with someone other than family. We couldn't have found a better person to care for him! David treated Kylo like his own and his communication is outstanding. We received 30 photos during the few days we were gone, which really helped put our minds at ease. Kylo hadn't had prior experience with other dogs off leash and he absolutely loved David's goldendoodle, Cocoa. David also carefully picks who he will watch and makes sure that the dogs have the same temperament. That is important to us, since our dog is small and somewhat timid. Overall, we had a great first experience and hope we are lucky enough to book David every time! Kylo agrees!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
