“Megan was great with my 2 boys. She sent me updates and pictures. They settled right in. She worked with me and a few things as well. I would highly recommend and ill def be using her again.”

“Arleen was very engaged and active with Loki from our first get to know you meeting to his week long stay. She was attentive to his dietary, sleeping and play needs. She walked Loki daily and took him on outings. He was well taken care of and we will definitely have her take care of Loki again! I think Loki has missed her since coming home!”
“Beth was so good with my dog. It was a last minute booking and she was so incredibly accommodating. I am so appreciative of her and her gentle nature caring for my pup. She also fosters a dog and he and my dog got along well, and even tuckered my high energy border collie/aussie mix out. She was so intentional in caring for my dog that she was worried about keeping her clean after long play sessions in her fenced in yard that was muddy from the rain, and that means a lot. That somebody watching my dog would care enough to keep her clean. Thanks so much Beth, if I ever need a sitter again, I know where to turn.”

“Denee was fantastic with our lab. She was attentive, communicative, and genuinely cares about animals. We felt completely comfortable leaving our dog at her home and would not hesitate to book again. Our dog came home happy and well cared for.”

About: Experienced with energetic and strong willed dogs. Experienced with structured care, consistent routines, and happy dogs :) Will love your pup like it’s my own Caring for pets is already a big part of my everyday life. My routine revolves around making sure my dog is walked, fed, and given plenty of attention throughout the day. Feel free to message me about availability! I typically am available whenever you need!! I have a very friendly and energetic Husky in my home who loves staying active. We go on walks around the neighborhood about every 2 hours for potty breaks, as well as mental and physical stimulation. We also occasionally enjoy car rides to the dog park for extra fun and exercise. Since my yard is unfenced, I have a secure outdoor lead available. If your dog enjoys spending time outside like mine, I’d be happy to accommodate that upon request. For safety and comfort, I also have a crate available and can crate your dog or mine as needed.
“Marley and Cali LOVED staying with Megan and her family. In fact, they did not want to come home! Marley loved swimming in the pool and chasing balls while Cali enjoyed playing with the kids and bonding with the chicken, Howie. Megan took fantastic care of our dogs and we are thrilled to have found such a wonderful sitter.”

“With my dog’s energy and wanting to use the bathroom on everything another animal probably touched, he did a great job with being understanding and the communication was top tier!”

“So so glad we decided to leave our pup with Zach instead of boarding her! His place is perfect for dogs. He was super attentive towards her and sent us tons of pictures and videos all day of her playing. We have a very tired, happy pup right now and we couldn’t be more pleased!”

“I can’t say enough about the excellent care my baby receives from Carrie. Gravy just loves to spend time with her and comes home so happy. I always feel at ease leaving her and know that she is in the best of hands ❤️.”

“Thank you again for yet another wonderful stay for our dogs! They love staying with Erica and her family and are very well taken care of when they are there.”

About: Hello! My name is Keri, I have had pets my whole life, including shelter rescues and fosters. I am experienced with dogs of all sizes and a large selection of breeds. As a pet owner myself, I want to know that my dogs are happy and most importantly, safe! As some pups (or pet parents) can become stressed or anxious with strangers, I will go the extra mile to ensure their comfort! Pet parents can be assured to receive lots of photos while their pup is in my care. I have worked in the medical field for 8 years, but my love for pets has started a journey to pet sitting. I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pups! My schedule can be very flexible, and I am home most of the time, occasionally in the office nearby. I live in a quiet neighborhood in a new spacious home with lots of room for your babies. As I currently do not have a fenced in yard, your baby can play inside & outside, and go for walks! I treat your pups as if they were my own. Interacting with pets by giving them lots of love and attention. Pups are allowed on furniture and most all areas of our home. Each pup will be walked and fed on schedule. Special diets and oral medications can be administered if needed.
About: I have done it all: walks, playtime, training, overnight stays, house breaking puppies, etc. I am excited to meet your pup! My goal is to be respectful, fun, and kind. I currently work partime so am free in the afternoons! I will have my 7 month old daughter with me as my little helper 😉. I have the skills and knowledge to know how to respect and earn respect from your pup. Will make sure they feel safe and enjoy some time playing as well! As a mother and personal dog owner I have a nurturing spirit.
“Rachel took wonderful care of our Miller while we were on vacation. He got an upset tummy and she went above and beyond to make sure he was okay. Miller seemed to really enjoy his time with Rachel and her dogs! We will def be using her again!”

“Brooke and her family were very sweet! I am so glad they were available last minute to watch our pup. Fozzie even whined in the car when we left, I can tell he enjoyed himself!!”

“I recently hired Michelle to care for my dog, and it was an amazing experience! From our first meeting, it was clear that Michelle is a true dog lover. She took the time to understand my dog's needs, which made me feel at ease. Throughout the stay, Michelle provided excellent care, ensuring my dog received plenty of love, exercise, and attention. She sent regular updates and adorable photos, and videos showing that my dog was enjoying his time. I wholeheartedly recommend Michelle for anyone needing a caring dog sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my dog!”

“Debora was amazing. She was very kind and caring. You can tell right away that she truly loves animals. She took great care of our dog Cali. I am so thankful that I found her on Rover. She was great with communication. This was our first experience using Rover and I would do it again. I would recommend Debora to anyone looking for a great care giver to your dog. Thank you Debora.”
