About: Hi, I’m Nana! I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, but my heart truly belongs to the little ones. For 16 wonderful years, I was the proud parent of a sweet Pomeranian. After she recently passed, her brother became the only dog in our home. We realized how much we missed the energy of a multi-dog household, which is why I’ve decided to open our home to sitting small dogs like yours. My life revolves around my 13 year old Pomeranian, Danny, who is the heart of my home. Having a senior dog has taught me everything about specialized care (gentle handling, medication schedules and providing a calm, patient environment for dogs who need a little extra love). I specialize exclusively in small dog care. I know that little ones have big personalities but also unique needs. My home is a safe haven where your pup won't be overwhelmed by big dogs or high-energy chaos. I’d love to watch your fur-babies! I frequently work from home, so your dog will have constant companionship and a consistent routine. My schedule is built around the needs of my 13 year old Pomeranian, meaning regular potty breaks in our fenced yard, timely feedings, and treat time are already part of my daily flow. Your pup will be supervised throughout the workday and treated like family. Safety is my top priority, especially for small breeds. I never leave guest dogs unattended outside. Because I’m fully aware of how curious they are (mine is constantly rooting for bugs), I am hyper vigilant about small-dog hazards.
“Barbara had our Oli (mini schnauzer) overnight for the first time and we are so pleased. Barbara sent us plenty of updates with pictures and videos, which we loved! And Oli looked very happy from her sleepover experience! Win win! Also, Ruby (Barbara’s rescue) is so sweet and was so good to Oli. I love that they got to interact and even slept in bed with Barbara. We would definitely love to have Barbara taking care of Oli again 🥰”

“Madeline was absolutely AMAZING! Our two dogs stayed with her for 5 nights, and we received frequent updates and photos the entire time. I highly recommend her!”

“Mary was amazing with our tiny puppy! He is a handful and has a lot of energy but Mary was patient and took good care of him. Would recommend her to any dog owner!”

“My dog can be a handful sometimes and Laura was able to tame him. It’s clear that she’s a huge pet lover because she didn’t want to leave her home for any extended amount of time due to my dog having separation anxiety. She also provided me with photos, videos, and updates on how things were going.”

“Adolfo was great. Obviously I am a little apprehensive about leaving my dog at a place for a week but Adolfo knows what he is doing. My dog got to socialize and he handled the pack with ease. Thank you so much for taking him in.”


“Jennifer and Sharon were absolutely awesome! They kept great communication throughout my entire trip and made sure to send a surplus of pictures and videos which is exactly what I needed since I missed my cats so much!”

“First time using Rover, and it was a great experience! Shannon is quick to respond and easy to work with. She gave updates and I could tell my pup had fun! Very convenient service. Will use again!”

“Julia was fantastic! Great at communication and very sweet. She helped my fur baby at a very hard time! I would recommend her to anyone! Very caring and compassionate! Your fur baby will be in great and loving hands with Julia!”

“Rachael did SUCH an amazing job taking care of Scooby! She had excellent communication and I loved the updates she sent. Scooby can be a bit anxious and reactive with other dogs and Rachael was great with her. I could tell Scooby had a great time and would have happily stayed longer!”

“Reba was absolutely amazing! My pup Ope adored her and was sad to leave her house when I picked him up! He made lots of new buddies and I was sent lots of cute pictures. She is very understanding, accommodating and quick to respond. We are excited to book with her in the future!”

“Sarah and the service she offered was awesome! Sarah made sure to communicate, send daily photos, and asked questions to better serve my fur baby 🐶❤️ If needed, I will definitely book Sarah again!”

About: Hi, I’m Maddie! 🐾 I’ve had cats and dogs in my life since I was a baby — from tiny Pomeranians to big, lovable German Shepherds. Over the years, I’ve pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors (both dogs and cats!) and love giving pets the care, walks, and attention they deserve. I’m currently a medical resident, which means my schedule shifts weekly — but that actually gives me the flexibility to help care for your pets when you need it most. You can count on me to be reliable, responsible, and trustworthy (I take caring for your furry family members as seriously as I do my patients!). Whether it’s long walks, playtime, snuggles, or just keeping your pets company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐶🐱💛 As a medical resident, my schedule changes week to week, but I have flexibility for daytime, evening, and some weekend visits to fit your pet’s needs. I live in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment with my own small dog. There’s plenty of room for play indoors, and I have safe, walkable areas nearby for exercise and potty breaks. While I don’t have a yard, I make sure dogs get plenty of fresh air and supervised outdoor time. I can also crate pets upon request to match their routine and keep them comfortable.
“Jackie and Enoch were great with Mia! Mia had a blast with their pup, with plenty of space to run around and a cozy home to rest after all the fun. They provided plenty of pictures/updates and we're always quick to respond. We would happily have them watch Mia again!!”


“Rosie stayed with Jordan for a long first stay, and she was a very happy pup when we picked her up. Jordan was really easy to coordinate with. We would definitely have Rosie stay with him again!”

“Puff was a happy dog when I pulled up to pick him up! Kelli was easy to communicate with, sent adorable pics and house was spotless…let’s not forget her apartment is close and very convenient!”

“Damica did a really great job taking care of my dog. She sent regular updates with pictures, videos, and general descriptions of eating habits to assure me that my dog was doing fine. I will definitely be going back for her services in the future.”

About: i’ve been around dogs my whole life and cats too, so being with animals just comes naturally to me. i have two cats and a dog of my own, so i’m used to different personalities, energy levels, and routines every day. i’m a huge animal lover in general—not just pets, but everything from little beetles to deer and anything in between 😂 i’ve always had a soft spot for animals. i pay attention to how they act and what they need, whether they’re super playful or more shy. i make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting the attention they need while you’re away. i treat every pet like they’re mine, and i know how big of a deal it is to trust someone with your animals. i’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and i’ll make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well taken care of—no stress on your end. my days usually start around 8–9am depending on when my cats wake me up for breakfast lol. my dog zuko is more of a couch potato, but when he needs to go out he definitely lets me know. i work from home and my schedule is super flexible, so i’m not stuck at a desk and can move around freely throughout the day. that means i’m able to give pets a lot of attention, take breaks for walks, and adjust my day around their needs. once i’m up, i take zuko out for his first bathroom break, then we come back in for breakfast. after that i’ll relax a bit, clean up, and then we head back out for a good walk or sometimes the park. after that we come back, he gets a treat, and the rest of the day is pretty go with the flow—lots of attention, check-ins, and making sure everyone’s comfortable and taken care of. i make sure pets are always in a safe, clean, and calm environment. i live in a loft that gets a lot of natural sunlight, and my pets love it—they’re usually sunbathing and relaxing most of the day, which creates a really peaceful vibe. i pay close attention to behavior and routines so pets feel comfortable, especially in a new space or with a new person. i’m also very mindful about things like doors, food safety, and keeping anything harmful out of reach. i follow your instructions closely so your pet stays on their normal routine as much as possible. since i work from home and have a flexible schedule, your pet won’t be left alone or ignored—they’ll get consistent attention, care, and a relaxed environment. i’ll also keep you updated so you always know your pet is happy and in good hands.
Downtown dog parents share their Rover experiences
I absolutely would recommend Jayde to ANY and EVERYONE! She was so good with my doggy. She shared pictures with an update every single night. She even got to sleep in Jayde's bed! Jayde honestly treated my baby like she was her own. She was honestly fabulous. I would use her 100 times over, if I ever need another dog sitter she will definitely be who I use! (if I could give her 10 stars I would)

Barbara had our Oli (mini schnauzer) overnight for the first time and we are so pleased. Barbara sent us plenty of updates with pictures and videos, which we loved! And Oli looked very happy from her sleepover experience! Win win! Also, Ruby (Barbara’s rescue) is so sweet and was so good to Oli. I love that they got to interact and even slept in bed with Barbara. We would definitely love to have Barbara taking care of Oli again 🥰
