“Sierra was great with Hyde! Hyde is very high energy and can be temperamental with other dogs, which doesn’t always make him and easy dog to sit. However, I was completely comfortable with Sierra watching Hyde, as she was very communicative when needed and sent photos of him during the sitting. I will definitely be booking again when in need.”
“Kristina and Fletcher were so amazing for our three babies. We know our dogs have some unique traits (Luna is scared of hardwood floors) and Murphy can be very mischievous and they handled all of their quirks with the utmost care and patience. They even gave our Hazel a bath! We received updates and pictures everyday! We truly appreciate everything they did for our dogs!”
“Barfi had a great stay at Sharon’s home. She was willing to keep him on a last moment notice. We are very thankful to her. She is a wonderful host!”

“Amazing with my little void! Everyday pics and video and my little baby looked so happy to be there! Went above and beyond and made little toys for her!”

“Richard was great. Very communicative and sent pictures every day. My dog was very happy - albeit exhausted from all the playing :) - when Richard dropped him off to us. Will definitely ask him to sit again in the future.”
“Michael and Maria were the best! They took such great care of Penny while I was out of town. Their apartment is so clean and a wonderful location for the city. They were so kind with sending daily updates and photos. I know Penny was in great hands!”
“Sitter accidentally forgot to return our basket of dog toys, but remedied the mistake by giving a rebate on one of the nights and mailed the toys back to our home. She was very accommodating.”

“Adam was fantastic with Macy! He sent daily pictures of their activities; even twice on most days! Kept us up-to-date on all things and really gave us peace of mind leaving Macy behind for two weeks. We would 110% reach out to Adam again the next time we need a sitter for Macy.”
“Beedo had a fabulous time with Coralee. From the moment we arrived and the way she greeted us I knew this was going to go well. Coralee was attentive to Beedo's special needs and quirks and built an instant relationship with him. It was a great experience and I loved the picks she sent me of him relaxing with his blankie with her dog. I highly recommend Coralee and her dog Peducci. They're a great care team!”
About: Hi, I'm Shannon and I petsit with my husband, Steve. We have both grown up with dogs and have been devoted pet parents for over a decade. We’ve cared for everything from mischievous puppies to wise old seniors who needed daily medications and extra TLC. Whether your dog needs a slow stroll, a game of fetch, or a quiet lap to nap on, we’re here to make them feel at home. Our own pups—Louie and Bess—are friendly, playful, and used to sharing their space. We treat every dog like they’re part of the family (and yes, we talk to them in silly voices). Pet care is our routine! Either Steve or I will be home full time when your dog is with us, so they’ll get plenty of attention, outdoor breaks, and snuggles throughout the day. Our dogs love their daily walks, and visiting the dog park (with your permission) is always a highlight. Between window watching, sunbathing, and playtime, your pup will be enjoying a mini vacation of their own—while you’re off on yours. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. At our home, pups are never left alone—either Steve or I will always be here to supervise, cuddle, and play. We have a securely fenced yard (6 foot privacy fence) for safe outdoor time and a spacious first floor where the dogs can relax, play, and snooze in the sun. If your dog needs medication, special feeding, or just a little extra love—we’ve got it covered. You can enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, happy, and very loved.
“Oliver loved his stay! Xiang and Scott communicated so well and made us feel comfortable the whole time.”
“Kristi was absolutely fantastic. She scheduled a meet up with us and our dog prior to booking to ensure that both parties were happy and comfortable. She was very flexible in terms of drop off and pick up and communicated very clearly. While we were gone, she sent multiple pictures and videos of our dog daily and gave many updates. She took him on walks and gave him ample attention. We could tell through the media sent that our dog was happy and cared for. We will definitely be using Kristi again; it is clear she has a love for animals!”
“Amy is truly the best! She is attentive and communicates very well. I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her :) My dog can’t wait to come back!!”
“Rachel was excellent with my senior dog, Majic! I'm always nervous when I leave him with someone for the first time. But, I felt so comfortable with Rachel during the week that I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying. I received frequent updates and pics while we were away. And, if Rachel had a question, she texted to ask. She followed all of our instructions including feeding and giving his eye medication. Rachel was very attentive and made sure Majic felt like home. We will definitely sit with Rachel again in the future!”
“Kathy is the best! She sent lots of photos and videos. Our pup loved her fenced in yard as well. We felt very comfortable with Kathy caring for our dog for the night. Thanks, Kathy! Would definitely recommend.”

“We’re so grateful to Shannon and Steve for taking such wonderful care of our 11-year-old dog and 6-year-old cat while we were away! They were incredibly attentive, making sure both pets were comfortable, well-fed, and loved. They even helped with distributing our dog’s medication, which gave us such peace of mind. We especially appreciated the photo updates—they made us feel connected and reassured the entire time. It’s clear Shannon and Steve truly care, and we wouldn’t hesitate to trust them again with our furry family members!”

East Hills dog parents share their Rover experiences
Sharon was a miracle and amazing, She stepped up when I needed pet support the most, The set-up was amazing and my dog flourished. I could not be more grateful. I will definitely be a repeat customer :)
Emma did a great job keeping my dog Molly safe and cared for while I was away. Emma was very flexible with scheduling as well and was quick to adjust drop off and pick up times as needed!
Sydney was absolutely incredible! She was extremely accommodating and was able to help me out last minute. Very quick to respond and sent updates of my little munchkin multiple times a day. I will definitely be booking again!
Joe took care of our Rosie for 3 weeks and was great with her. He was very responsive to any questions we had. He took her on walks regularly and updated us daily with pictures. Thank you Joe!
We were lucky to find Allison for our last-minute request! One of our rescue dogs is still becoming more socialized - so he definitely needs to sense a "vibe" to be able to connect with someone - and after I got a good feeling at our meet-and-greet, we booked. He took to Allison pretty quickly and by the end of the weekend, they were snuggling. We would definitely use Allison again, if she'll have us. :) Thanks, Allison!
Blown away by Sophie! She is incredibly patient and understanding, and she won over my nervous/fearful Nash so quickly. I really appreciate her excellent communication and the kindness she showed to both of us. Sophie made the whole process stress-free and comfortable. Nash can’t wait to come back :) Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and caring sitter!
Kristina and Fletcher were so amazing for our three babies.

Was great with my girl Diamond she gave updates that put a smile on my face. I would definitely rebook for future trips.
Great experience!! To be honest, I don’t trust many people with my stubborn Shiba but Sel took great care or him! He sent lots of updates and pick up/drop off was convenient and easy. He was super flexible! Also… my shibe is usually a litttttle particular but he got along great with his dog Stella and he has a big fenced backyard for the doggos to play in. Overall 10/10! Definitely recommend Sel and Stella! I think my dog was even a little sad to come home with me 😂
Kristi was fantastic with Gala, our 1 year old Great Dane. She kept us updated with pictures and was a good communicator regarding any questions. I would definitely recommend her. Thank you Kristi!
Tracie did an amazing job taking care of Buddy—she literally fed him like a baby and made sure he was comfortable every step of the way. It's clear how much love and attention she gave him, and we can tell he’s missing you all, especially his playtime with Link. We're so grateful for everything you did to make Buddy feel at home while we were away. I can confidently say that with Tracie, your fur baby is in the safest hands. We’ll definitely be reaching out again!
