“Shakya took wonderful care of my pit bull for 9 days. It can often be stressful leaving our pup for such a long stretch of time but we could immediately tell that Shakya was such a dog lover and we felt very comfortable. Shakya was very communicative, sending daily updates and photos. Our dog was in amazing hands!!! We were so happy with the care Romy was given and will definitely be calling Shakya again to care for her. 10/10!!”


“If I could give a 10/10 I would! Lindsey was seriously the best. She and her family gave our 2 dogs all the love and attention they could have gotten! (I honestly think our dogs miss them!) I didn't worry about our girls at all when they stayed with Lindsey. She messaged me with updates and pictures every day, and if I wanted to check in with a message to see how they were doing, she was quick to respond. It had rained one day and our girls got dirty outside, and I appreciated that Lindsey asked if it was OK to bathe them, and that she did bathe them! Our girls were soft/smelled great when we picked them up, they were tired, and seemed happy. Her family took them on a walk, and even gave them a spoon of peanut butter as a treat on Christmas. Our one dog became attached to a toy at their home, and Lindsey was sweet enough to let her take it home, so our dog now has a small piece of her stay with Lindsey and her family. I would 10/10 recommend and would love to be able to use Lindsey for future dog stays!”


“This was my first time using Rover and I cannot believe our luck in finding Christianna! Our 8 year old Boston Terrier, Watson, had an amazing time and was in great hands during his 10 day stay. He went on field trips, spent ample time supervised outside, had plenty of human friends to play tug o’ war with, and laps to snuggle at bed time. Christianna sent many photos and videos daily to keep me in the loop of Watson’s adventures. He is epileptic and requires daily medication which was not an issue at all for Christianna. She is definitely our go-to sitter from now on!”



“Melissa was so amazing with her care of both my dogs. Daily updates with pictures to assure me they were doing well. She is so sweet and attentive and so helpful when I needed to adjust my pick up time. I could not recommend her enough.”


About: Dog sitting is something I truly excel at—I’m attentive, responsible, and genuinely love spending time with dogs. I make sure each pup feels safe, comfortable, and cared for, whether that means sticking to their feeding routine, going on long, playful walks, or just being there for some quality cuddle time. I pay close attention to their behavior and needs, quickly noticing if something seems off. I treat every dog like they're part of the family, and pet parents can relax knowing their furry friend is in great hands with me. I currently work part-time caregiver for my mom and father. I have a flexible work schedule so I can do all hours . I believe the more rime u can spend with a animal the more you conny just like a caregiver. I ahve a cat that is friendly and free to go as he pleases. i have toys and a nice yard to play in although will still have to be a leash. And as for your home i will keep the most responsible respectful i can be in your home and to your pet.

“Dawn is a good communicator, keeping us in touch with our Rocky’s well being and sending pictures to let us know he was enjoying His vacation too. We were very happy with Dawn’s care of our dog. Thank you.”



“This was our first trip away without Rocky. Daniela sent me pictures throughout the night and kept me updated on how he was doing. Rocky had a blast with her dogs! Definitely would recommend Daniela, they make your dog feel like one of their own. Thank you again!”

“Marley had an awesome time with Susan and her two fur-babies! Marley is usually shy but warmed right up to Susan, which is a testament to her goodness! Marley came home happy & tired from her long playtime. We are looking forward to booking with Susan again in the future!”

“Ashley was terrific!! She took my sweet Sandy for the weekend and I don't think she's ever been happier anywhere else! I got constant updates which was so great even if my 6 year old didn't want to see "her puppy happy anywhere else" (they are attatched at the hip) Ashley and Luna are absolutley fantastic and I think sandy is missing her buddy now that she is home. We will definitley keep them in mind next time we need to go on a trip. Luna is a great sharer of her space and ice cream cups. A+++ for Luna for just being her”


“Maggie was in excellent hands with Jodi. I received daily updates and pics. Communication with Jodi was clear and immediate. She was also very friendly and personable. I would definitely utilize Jodi's services again in the future.”



“This was first time I left my pup with a Rover sitter; my experience could not have been better. Denise and her beautiful family took great care of her and sent me updates and photos to reassure me that all was well. I swear GracieBell was smiling in everyone!”


“Chrishauna and her family was so AMAZING! My fur baby was so well taken care of and loved as if she was their own. They took care of her for almost a week and I got pictures and updates daily. I’m so happy I chose her to care for my fur baby and she will definitely be the only sitter for my family.”
