“Took great care of my babies and accommodated me on difficult timing. Also bathed my pups upon return, which was a wonderful and super appreciative gesture. Thank you Arriyanna.”
“This couple is amazing! They are so sweet and gentle and love dogs, your in good hands with them. Always communicating with updates etc. I trust them 100%”
“Laura was GREAT!!! I felt so comfortable leaving my Standard Poodle with her during my entire trip. Laura took great care of my dog even down to preparing his meals and cleaning his containers that held his homemade food. I would highly recommend her.”
“Chris is amazing! He is super chill and amazing with dogs. My dog Fenchy had a really good time for 4 days. Chris updated me with pictures and I can tell that my doggy had her own little holiday with Chris. She loved him! I can only recommend Chris - thank you so much for taking such a great care over my baby 🥰”
“Alex watched our cat at her residence for about 2 weeks while we were on vacation. She was very responsive and easy to communicate with, and very flexible. When I picked up our cat, she was happy and healthy. I would use Alex to watch our cat again without hesitation.”
“We're so happy Wrigley got to stay with Karina while we were away for the weekend! She was so sweet, checked in and sent us pictures every day, he had a great time while staying with her and playing with the other pups! Will definitely use her again!”
“Samonie was great! Communicated well with me, gave updates and Nikita looked like she had a great time. Thank you so much Samonie! I would definitely leave Nikita with him again.”
“This was our first time with Maria and she was very good with Happy. She sent us a lot of pictures throughout the day and took good care. Happy enjoyed her company and we will definitely keep Happy with her in future.”
“Jamila was a lifesaver! Another sitter canceled in the middle of my dog’s stay and Jamila immediately responded to my last minute request. I’m so grateful for her and Brolin seemed to easily get along with her too. So glad I found her. I highly recommend!”
About: I've done it all — puppy chaos, senior snuggles, and everything in between. With 20+ years of hands-on experience and dogs I've raised myself, I know what your pet needs. I work a flexible full-time schedule from my home where I can care for your pet and take breaks to walk and play with them. If your pet is more comfortable in their own home, I am available to sit them there as my daytime job is remote. I am tidy and leave every space the same (if not better) than when I entered. Your pet's comfort and safety are my top priority. Having grown up in a home where dogs of all sizes were cherished family members, I understand how to read a pet's needs and create a calm, secure environment. I've personally raised and trained my own dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, so I'm experienced in adapting care routines to each stage of life. In my home, pets are never an afterthought — they're treated with the same patience, attention, and love I'd want for my own family members (human or otherwise). 🧡
“Christa was absolutely amazing. She took such great care of my doggo while I was out for 2 weeks. She took her on all kinds of adventures and sent lots of messages and pictures. She was very responsive and incredibly sweet to my dog. I highly suggest having Christa watch your puppers!”
“Fantastic. Marilyn watched our pup throughout the Christmas holiday while we vacationed. He had a better time with her than he would’ve with us! Will absolutely call again.”
“Tyler & Patricia were amazing! I got daily updates and photos of my dog (adorable ones too!) and they were so kind and accommodating. I have already planned to book with them in the future. Sushi seemed to really love staying with them too :)”
“Vivian was amazing with my little pup. She provided updates and was really caring towards Chloe. My pup got along with her dogs and made some new friends. I will definitely book with Vivian again! She is so trustworthy!”
About: Big heart, gentle hands, and plenty of treats! I’m dedicated to providing a fun, stress-free environment for your pets. Whether it’s long walks or cozy cuddles, your fur baby will be in the best of care with me. Full-time care for your best friend! Because I’m a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to provide around-the-clock attention. Our typical day includes cozy indoor playtime and daily neighborhood walks with my baby in tow. It’s the perfect environment for pets who love a consistent routine and a family atmosphere. I can't wait to welcome your pup into our daily adventures! I’m a firm believer that pets are family! When your fur baby stays with me, they get full access to cuddles on the couch and endless yard fun (fenced). If I’m visiting your home, I take pride in being a respectful guest who focuses entirely on keeping your pet happy and tired out. You can expect plenty of photo updates, quick communication, and one very happy pet upon your return!
“This is our second time boarding our sweet poodle mix rescue with Marlo. My dog was so happy to arrive back at Marlo’s place and was at ease like visiting a good friend or family member. She was boarded with another larger dog and Marlo watched them closely and they got along just perfectly. I felt my dog was very safe and secure in Marlo’s hands and having a blast while we were away. Gets way more attention, walks and play time than if she were boarded at a kennel and my dog loves it. Will definitely board with Marlo again when the time comes. Thank you Marlo!”
“Leslie is amazing! She was able to work with us last minute to take our pup when I was in labor. She provided us with pictures and updates and our Joy was happy. We definitely recommend her and will be working with her again.”
“Giovanna took such great care of my shy, finicky little guy. It was clear how much she cared about his comfort and treated him with such loving care. I loved the updates and it was clear he was at ease with her. She even surprised me with an adorable painting of my pup! 🥰 Jack hopes to come back soon!”
“Jeimy was amazing with our two dogs. She treated them with lots of love and care, as if they were her own. Even with our dog with special needs and hyper fur baby, she was patient and knew exactly how to handle their needs. Communication was great, she provided daily updates with photos while we were on vacation in a different time zone. She was so accommodating and made sure the dogs had everything. I would highly recommend her and book her again!”
Downtown dog parents share their Rover experiences
Here's a warm review you can use for Leah after several sittings: **⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐** Irene has cared for my dog several times now, and I couldn't be happier with the care and attention she provides. It gives me such peace of mind knowing my dog is in loving, capable hands whenever I'm away. Irene is reliable, communicative, and always keeps me updated with messages and photos. My dog is always comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which speaks volumes about the bond they've built. Leah consistently goes above and beyond to make sure my dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved. I highly recommend Leah to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and dependable dog sitter. I am so grateful to have found her and will definitely continue booking with her in the future! 🐾💕
I booked last minute and she was very responsive! I had a previous sitter that was unable to sit last minute and Arriyana was available! My LucyLou had such a great time. I got photo updates, many of them! Also the best part was watching my Lucy be ao very happy. She is just a puppy but did amazing🫶🏽 thank you so much! I highly recommend her!
Alexandria is everything you are looking for in a dog sitter! She is communicative, sends lots of updates/pictures, clearly great with animals and loves hanging out with them. She was beyond flexible with our changes in travels and flight delays. I am so grateful for her loving our dog, Kaya when we were away and will definitely be our number one go to moving forward! Thank you for everything Alexandria!
I cannot recommend Christa enough! Lucky, my large 80-pound shepherd mix, warmed up to her right away. I was initially nervous because Lucky can be reactive on leash and with new people, but Christa handled her with such confidence and care. She made sure Lucky had regular walks, plenty of attention, and treats, and I could tell Lucky was having a wonderful time. Christa kept me updated throughout the entire stay, which really eased my mind. Lucky truly needed someone experienced and caring, and Christa was exactly that! I’m so grateful for the peace of mind and for how happy Lucky was! Thank you, Christa!
Leslie was the best! Benji loved her and you could tell she loved Benji. And Benji doesn’t love everyone. She even had him playing and for a dog like mine that is anxious, that is a miracle. Thanks for taking such good care of him, Leslie and y’all be sure to book with her!
Katherine and John were the perfect dog sitters for my two little girls. Bella and Nola are very slow to getting to know new people. So with a few treats and a lot of patience, they won them over. It put me at ease knowing they had bonded and were enjoying each others company. I will definitely call them again when I need their services. They were great!
Arash was great. Let me know right away that my pup was doing well after I dropped him off. That was very comforting since it was my dogs first time over. Arash was quick to respond, flexible with time, and easy to communicate with. Zeke will definitely coming back for another sleepover
Christine is a treasure. She took care of my dog Rico like he was her own. Upon me, dropping her off, she immediately began walking him. She communicated with me every step of the way to inform me of how my pet is doing. My wife expressed that she was so happy that we were able to have free time because Christine was a reliable caretaker for our pet. We will definitely book again. She’s worth her weight and gold. Thank you, Christine. P. Kenji Bonds
Cheyenne was amazing!! Lilo has always been such a shy dog, and my heart swelled when she immediately went up to her and Bowie. All the cuddling pics proved she was very comfortable. I knew Lilo would be in great care and I'm so happy she had a great time! Cheyenne provided photos, and kept me updated throughout our trip. I would love to book with her and Bowie again! :)
Everyone wants to know that their pet is well looked after when in the care of another. With Roy you can be assured that he will provide the best of care. This was the second booking with him. My dog Windsor didn't seem to be happy leaving when it was time to pick him up. Clearly he was comfortable and well treated while I was away. Roy was also great at communicating and providing assurance that all was well during the duration of the stay. Will look forward to leaving Windsor with Roy again. Highly recommend!
Joshua took amazing care of Milo! It was clear when I picked him up that Milo was happy and well taken care of. I also received many photos and videos which made me so happy as well and at peace about leaving my baby with him. I would 100% recommend Joshua to anyone who needs someone to look after their pup and would 100% use him again myself!
