“Jenny took great care of our dog, Chestnut, while we were on a weekend trip. She was very responsive and sent us lots of pictures so we knew he was doing well! Chestnut also had a blast playing with her pups!”
“Sterlin took great care of our tiny chihuahua. She kept us informed with pictures and videos and even had him sit for a picture w the Easter bunny. 😆. We will def be booking again - thanks sterlin!”
“I can’t recommend Jessica enough! She took such perfect care of our boy and we couldn’t be more grateful. We will be going back to Jessica every time we need a sitter!”
“Rebecca and Ozzie are genuine dog lovers. We went away for a week, and they were great about sending us pictures and updating us on our dog Charlie. We consider Charlie a part of our family, and we all missed him while we were away. Rebecca set our minds at ease by sending pictures and videos each day, and she shared information about his eating habits (we learned that he doesn’t like his beef wet food). We will definitely use their services again in the future!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Mariah. From the moment we dropped our pup off, it was clear that this wasn’t just a job—it was a calling. The level of attention, care, and genuine love for animals was apparent. Our dog was treated like family, with thoughtful updates and the kind of affection that made us feel completely at ease while we were away. It’s rare to find someone who combines professionalism with such a big heart, but we found it here. When we picked up our dog, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly adored her stay. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book again and are so grateful to have found someone we trusted so completely with our girl. Highly, highly recommended!”
“Jeff Was a great sitter for my pups. He sent pictures throughout their visit and seemed comfortable and happy during their stay. If i came through this town again I would use his services. Thank you”
“Thank you so much for taking such great care of our puppy! You were incredibly accommodating and made him feel completely at home. We truly appreciate it and look forward to booking with you again!”
“I will be having Lisa watch hickory again ! She had so much fun and I felt so comfortable having Lisa take care of her while we were out of town. I will definitely be recommending her to others that need dog sitting. Thank you Lisa!”
About: I have taken care of dogs a lot throughout my life. I used to walk dogs in my neighborhood all the time. 4 years ago I got my own puppy and trained him. Now we walk around 5 miles everyday I walk my dog multiple times a day and I love to go on long walks. I have a waitressing job in the summer and I like to spend the rest of my days outside playing with dogs. I care for my puppy so much and I am always playing with him and never leaving him by himself. I make sure that he is always happy and healthy
“Kelley was great. Mabel had a great stay with her. Kelley was attentive and gave me updates and was very respectful. We plan to use her again next time we're in the area.”
“This was my first time using Rover. I hit the jackpot when I found Ashley. She got back to me quickly before I booked Her and answered my questions. Y dog felt comfortable when he entered the house. She kept me informed while we were away. He was happy to see us but I think he was saying you are back already.i would definitely use her again.”
“My dog is 6 years old, and we have always traveled together.This is my first experience with a pet sitter, so I was initially quite worried. However, all my worries disappeared the moment I saw Jared and his family. He kept sending us pictures,videos, assuring us that the dog was doing well. He told us not to worry and just enjoy our trip. So, we truly enjoyed our trip with peace of mind. Furthermore, his house had a spacious backyard with high fences, and I really appreciated that. I loved knowing that my dog had a safe and secure space to stay in.I also felt that he and his family truly cared for and loved dogs. I really appreciate it Jared!”
“Denise is awesome! My little Chi was not so great the first time I left her but Denise was willing to work with her and the 2nd time she stayed with Denise there were no issues, she was very happy to stay there. I really appreciate Denise's willingness to work with her. She has a lovely yard also and my little girl loves it!”
“Mae Ann was wonderful with Daisy! She and Nikki were so sweet and welcoming. We felt good about leaving our girl in such good hands. They have a fabulous set up and Mae Ann sent a couple of pics each day. We would definitely ask her again.”
“Sharon is the best. Both her and her husband are so caring and take time to get to know your dog and take care of them as if they were home with you. Thanks for taking care of Pepper for two weeks! She was so happy to be with you. Thanks again.”
“Danielle did an excellent job with my two fur babies. She took care of them as if they were her own. They are very nervous babies but Danielle seems to have the secret on how to make them less anxious and to become comfortable in her home. Infact I was told my Junie did not want to leave! She fed them like we discussed and took ample amount of photos and videos. My husband and I usually don't take vacations that often but we really enjoyed ourselves knowing they were in good hands. I would like to thank Danielle and her family again for a job well done and I would recommend her anytime.”
“Diana was fantastic! We booked it last minute and ended up needing to extend our dogs stay a few more days. She was super accommodating and responsive! And even sent us pictures of our pup! So grateful and highly recommend!”
“We definitely recommend Alex and John to anyone that needs a pet sitter. Our puppy was happy when I picked him up. It was nice to see pictures and video of him. They asked questions about his eating schedule, etc. which let us know that they care about our puppy. We are so happy we found Alex and John.”
