“Arthur & Tamara was at my rescue when a sitter canceled during drop off. Luckily they were available and prompt in responding because my flight was leaving in 2.5 hrs at the time and I had to leave for the airport at rush hour. I’m so thankful for them and they are wonderful sitters for my pups.”

About: My husband Preston grew up a dog lover with his two yellow labs, and I am a new dog lover after we got our lovely boy Jet a couple of years ago. We are responsible and would love to take care of your fur baby like it’s our own! Preston grew up dog sitting for friends and family where as I have cared for many a friends dogs throughout the years! I am full time work from home with a flexible schedule. We typically bring our dog out i around 10 am and 6pm for about an hour each as well as 20 minutes around 2 and 10 pm but are available for more frequent walks as needed in addition to a backyard, balconies and toys and splash pad! We have 1 dog (2 year old ~60lb boy named Jet). We live near a park and him twice a day for long walks and frequent the greenbelt. We also have a nice backyard for the dogs to enjoy some fresh air! We have a two floor house if your dog needs to be crated or separated for meal/bed times happy to do that as well!
“We found Robin and Roman last minute and they were very happy to help us with our dogs. We are very protective, but were beyond comfortable leaving them at what we call camp R & R. We will most defiantly request them next time we go out of town. They took them out on adventures and were very good at introducing our girls to their boy Huck. They sent us many pictures and messages while we were away to ensure we knew they were doing ok. Georgia is terrified of thunderstorms and they assured us that with Romans many years of dog training they were taking great care of her while we were away. Highly recommend giving them a call next time you need someone to take great care of your fur babies! ”
“Alex & Monica were wonderful taking care of my pup on fairly short notice. Overall, they went above and beyond to accommodate and ensure she was well taken care of. I appreciated their flexibility and easy communication that allowed me to travel with peace of mind.”
“Lauren took great care of my dog! She was prompt with communication and gave me updates of how my pup was doing. We will definitely use her in the future. Recommend!”

East Congress dog parents share their Rover experiences
Audrey is THE BEST. Not only did she make sure that Barnaby had a safe place to stay and lots of outside fun time, but she was training him!!! So happy we found her, absolute professional, kept us informed and Barnaby has such a great time. Will be booking again when we go out of town and bringing Barnaby to the doggie day care a few times a month to keep up that pack mentality.
I’ve booked with Rachel and Justin multiple times and they are fantastic! They treat my dog like family and always keep me updated with texts and pictures throughout the day. My dog is always excited when we pull up to their house, which gives me total peace of mind knowing she’s in such great hands. Highly recommend!
Daniela was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Oscar, during the week she cared for him. She not only gave him plenty of love and attention, but also went above and beyond treating a hot spot he had, making sure he was comfortable and healing well. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in her care, and I could tell he was happy and relaxed when I picked him up. Highly recommend Daniela to anyone looking for a caring and attentive dog sitter!
