“Suzanne and her children were absolutely amazing with my husky! She sent pictures and updates throughout the day, took my dog for walks, and had a huge backyard for her to run around in! Her children were very gentle with my dog which I appreciated! I’ve already booked more stays with her! My dog loves her and can’t wait to go back! Thanks, Suzanne!”
“This was our first time using Rover, so we did a meet and greet. Our dog took to Sarah right away, which put us at ease. She gave us updates and pictures during the stay which reassured us that our dog was being well cared for. We would definitely use Sarah in the future!”
“Megan is great with our dogs and our dogs love their time there. She never fails to give us twice daily updates and takes THE BEST photos of our dogs (I have several I want to frame). She is attentive to their needs and always reaches out if there are any concerns. We have had Megan board our dogs twice now and we will continue to book with her so long as she is on Rover.”
“I can't recommend Kristopher and his family highly enough! They took excellent care of my boys while I was away and gave me complete peace of mind. From the start, they were reliable, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. I received regular updates, photos, and messages, which reassured me that my dogs were happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. When I returned, my boys were relaxed, well cared for, and seemed to have genuinely enjoyed the experience. It's clear that they truly love animals and treat them as if they were their own. I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter.”
“Good people here! Trooper had a great time there. Sent pictures daily of my buddy on walks and snoozing. They are very flexible and communicate very well. Would highly recommend for your dog sitting. I will definitely be going back so trooper can see his new friends!”
“We were nervous leaving our little pup for the first time. The care provider sent us pictures during her stay. Puppy was happy an well cared for during her stay. So comforting to now we have excellent options for puppy care.”
About: I've always loved dogs I don't have a ton of experience with dogs but have had dogs of my own growing up I love to play with dogs and walk them and give them lots of love I would treat whatever dog I had in my care as my own I'm a stay at home mom so your dog would get lots of attention from me and my children lots of cuddles and play time Your dog would always be on a lease or lead in my backyard as I don't have a fenced in yard but I have a big backyard again they would be cared for as If they were my own dog
“Leslie took good care of our dog and kept us informed that he was having a great time. So glad she accepted on such short notice! I would definitely hire again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all my life within my own family as well as being trusted to watch over friends and family pets as well. This includes dogs of all sizes, medical needs, senior care, etc. I am able to be home to give your pet the attention and frequent potty breaks they may need and can provide frequent updates and photos while you’re away. I look forward to connecting! I am currently working from home only part time and would be able to watch over your pet in the home all hours of the day and week. I have a friendly dog at home that gets along great with others. I have a yard and would be able to take your dog out leashed and for walks as it is unfenced at this time. I can definitely crate your dog if needed, let them roam around if that’s what you’re comfortable with, provide medication as needed, etc.
“Soly was the most thorough and detail-oriented dog sitter I have ever used; and I have used many. I was very impressed! I really enjoyed all the photos and detailed updates from him each day. Moe seemed very happy and I am grateful for the care and attention Soly gave to my best buddy. Soly's townhouse is in a great place for dogs. There was a nice walking trail and a great dog private dog park that was completely fenced in. I am confident your dog will be in great hands with Soly.”
“Krysten cared for our 8 month old German Shepherd pup for a week with short notice when our previous arrangement cancelled. She made time to meet in advance and took our pup in while she was in heat. She sent videos and pictures while we were away. So grateful!”
“My dog absolutely loved Abby! Lilly got plenty of snuggles and walks over the weekend and enjoyed the quiet time away from the baby! I loved all the care and updates we got over the weekend. We hope Abby will be available every time!”
“We were so thankful to know our dog was with Terry and his wife. They took him in like one of their own from the moment they met Frodo. The pictures were great, and they were very accommodating with drop off/pick up. 10/10 would send Frodo to them again!”
“Charles, Casity and family did a wonderful job taking care of our dog! He felt comfortable from the moment he entered their home. Communication was great and they kept us updated with videos and pictures throughout the stay. We highly recommend them!”

Suzy took wonderful care of Misty! She was very reassuring and sent us updates while we were gone. She walked Misty every day and spent time with her in the yard. The personal attention was exactly what we were looking for. We will definitely be having her care for Misty again!
I can’t say enough about how great Tatyana was for my dog while I was away for a long weekend. I received constant updates about the fun my dog was having and lots and lots of pictures. As a dog owner it can be stressful at times finding a sitter last minute and Tatyana was a perfect find! Terrific communication the entire time and made it a stress free weekend for myself knowing that my dog was in great hands while I was away. She also was watching over others dogs along with mine and they all became best buds as well. Very comforting to know I can count on Tatyana whenever needed in the future. 6 stars if it were an option.
David was great! He treated my dog like he was family. I had absolute faith that my dog was right at home and all his needs were being met. I knew that I could leave my dog, with high needs and a big personality, in his care and he’d be in great hands. He sent updates & photos as well. Highly recommend!!
Lindsay did a great job taking care of our new puppy for a week! I appreciated her thoroughness in doing a meet & greet before accepting our reservation request to make sure her pup & ours would get along. She sent photos & videos updates & was a great communicator. Our dog is definitely a people person and we could tell he got a lot of attention & felt at home & loved in Lindsay's home. We'd definitely book again. Thank you Lindsay!
