“We are repeat bookers with Heather and her and her family always do a wonderful job. Our pup was well loved and was excited to see her again! Will be booking with Heather again in the future!”

“My dog was very well cared for and came home from his 4 day stay happy and tired! Halie sent pics and videos everyday. It was obvious he was very comfortable and felt right at home. He can be anxious especially when away from home so I am super happy with Halie!”

“I was nervous leaving Lady at first—but after the meet n greet w/the other dogs + meeting Dennis and Kim, I knew Lady was in good hands. It felt better when I got pics and short vids for updates. I think it was harder on me 😂. I’d definitely recommend boarding your fur baby here. Lady will be back next time I need to have her at a home away from home.”


“Alyssa was great with my two dogs. One is up there in age and my young one has severe separation anxiety, so it was great to have them well looked after. She sent pictures and was very responsive when I did quick check in messages.”

“Misty was great with Judy. Helped me out with a last minute booking. Good communication and pictures during the stay. Will definitely be using again when I need a sitter.”

“Madi took amazing care of our dog, Chipotle. Being gone multiple days isn’t something he’s used to, and the updates with pictures showed he was obviously calm and relaxed. Thank you for your awesome care and attention to Chipotle!!”

“My dog was very well taken care of at Eric's. I received pictures throughout my trip which was very reassuring. Eric is pleasant, helpful and easy to work with. He was a very good sitter for my precious dog! I'll use him again.”

“Thank you, Ron. I was more than pleased with how my pups were taken care of and with the frequent communications both prior to and during their stay. I'll definitely do this again when a similar travel need arises.”


“Brittney did a great job communicating and had all of our dog’s stuff nicely packed for pickup. She’s got a huge fenced in yard that would be great to run around in. She was really sweet and our dog seemed to really like her. Would definitely book with Brittney again!”
About: I have 30+years of experience with many kinds of animals. I have personally owned: dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, guineas, horses and a goat, pig and miniature donkey! Love my furry and feathered friends! I am currently very flexible and available throughout the week. I am also available on holidays. I am look forward to meeting your beloved pet! I am presently looking to do drop-in's and walks for now. I hope to include more services at a later date. I have a friendly small older dog that also likes dogs and cats. I have dependable transportation. I will care for your furry friend like they are my very own.
About: Hi! I have provided pet care for many families which included over night dog sitting, drop ins, dog walking, and feeding/watering. I have a dog of my own who is very energetic, so I’m used to giving lots of attention. My schedule is flexible for walks. I can at minimum do before and after work. If additional walking is required my lunch break is flexible and I would be able to come during lunch breaks (this is true for drop ins as well) I am willing to do overnights/boardings at my own house, however I would like to meet the dog before and allow the dog to meet mine to insure there are no issues! I would prefer to only do boarding on the weekends to ensure that I can be home all day with both dogs! I have a fenced in back yard which allows space for them to run and play. My dog is very dog friendly and well socialized. She loves loves loves having another friend to play with! I currently work full time, so am able to do drop ins before and after work. Depending on location I could potentially do drop in during lunch! My availability is more open on the weekends where I would be able to do more frequent drop ins or even hang out with your pups for an extended amount of time! I have a fenced in yard and a energetic pup of my own, which allows them space to play. I do not crate my dog, but have a spare bedroom that a crate can be placed if that is part of their usual routine. Pups are welcome on the couch and bed, if this is something that is not allowed at your home I will be sure not to allow it here as we don’t want any bad habits developed! I also enjoy taking my dog to the dog park and car rides almost everyday, and if this is something that your dog would enjoy I’d be happy to do this with them as well
“This was a wonderful experience! My dog, Morgan, is spoiled rotten, and she got the same pampered treatment that she would at home. Meghan also sent me pictures throughout the day the whole time I was gone, so that I could see Morgan playing and having a good time--it definitely put my mind at ease and made it a lot easier to relax, knowing that she was well taken care of! Thank you so much for taking care of my fur-baby so well!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs throughout my life and have always been the person friends and family trust with their pets. I’m patient, gentle, and make sure every dog feels safe and loved. I’m home most of the day except for quick daycare drop‑off and pickup. Pet care blends smoothly into my routine, even on occasional zoo or pool days. “We have a calm, pet‑friendly home with a fenced yard, one friendly dog, and three kids ages 1–7. All interactions are supervised, and visiting dogs always have a safe, comfortable space to relax.
Derby pet parents share their Rover experiences
Cheryl is a very experienced dog sitter and doggy daycare provider, which was a big positive for me. She gives lots of love and attention to the dogs and sends updates and photos while they are staying with her. I think my dog had a good time and felt safe and cared for, and that’s the best thing when you’re out of town.
