1. Jharasen W.

“Jharasen is the absolute best and if you’re looking for a caring and fun place for your dog she’s the person to go too! Our dogs had a blast. Jharasen is super communicative and even let us drop our dogs off earlier when we had a mix up with our plans. She was kind and attentive to our dogs - one of them had a sore on his paw and she put ointment on it and took care of him all weekend. She also took care of our small dog who had some poop issues. Needless to say she’s a true professional and we will be going back for sure!”


2. Holly L.


“Holly took excellent care of our 12 yo beagle. She kept in daily contact with pictures and videos. Holly will be our go-to Rover if we are in the area again.”


3. Brittany R.

“Brittany was as sweet as could be--and side note: ADORABLE twin toddlers! ;-) Apparently Buster and the tots kept each other busy to the point of everyone napping by the end of the visit. I was visiting from out of town for a family event, and if/when I go again, I'll definitely leave Buster with Brittany. Thank you so much, Brittany!”


4. Heather K.


“Heather took excellent care of Athena. She had great communication and Athena loved playing with her dog. Will definitely call Heather again when we are in the area!”


5. Neal T.

“Neal and his entire family were wonderful with our dogs Cash and Gizmo. I decided last minute to take my wife to the beach for her birthday. Neal was happy to accommodate my last minute request. We got updates and photos each day, and it was obvious that our pups were comfortable with Neal and his family. To quote my wife, leaving them with Neal was the first time she had ever felt comfortable leaving our dogs with a sitter, and felt like they were really being taken care of, and loved on like we would. Neal will definitely be our first call going forward for someone to care for our dogs.”


6. Dara P.

“Loved our experience with Dara! She was so great with our dog and with us and our anxiety of leaving Honey for the first time. We will definitely be returning to her!”

8. Mishael J.

“Mishael was amazing--so welcoming & accommodating--which was a blessing bc our dog was stinky! We tried to get her bathed & groomed but Kotie wouldn't have it, & we needed to get out of town on short notice. Very thankful for Mishael!”


9. Martha J.

“Martha is great with our baby girl. She sent regular updates with photos multiple times daily. We can tell she cares and that our dog loves her. Our dog is a very picky eater and Martha went out of her way to entice her to eat. We trust Martha and have the peace of mind that she takes very good care of our baby.”


10. Hannah S.

“Best Rover experience ever. Lily loved staying with Hannah and her family. And we loved knowing she was happy and well cared for. We will definitely rebook with Hannah. Thank you so much!”

One doggi more on the shy side but loves doggi chases and zoomies, kennel free, using talking buttons and also friendly only indoor cats, also chickens in another fenced part.


12. Danielle P.

“Our Trooper is a high needs dog and Danielle did an outstanding job with him. It is easy to see she loves animals of all shapes and sizes. Every picture sent our boy was smiling! We are over the moon with the fantastic care she provided and are thankful to have found a sitter that is incredibly kind and caring! We HIGHLY recommend her and appreciate all she did - walks, introducing our big guy to cats and play time with her terrier. It was lovely for us and Trooper!”


13. Carrie + Kurt J.


“I’m so happy I chose to leave my fur babies with you! I loved getting pictures of them everyday! They keep you informed about your babies, good and bad (but hopefully no bad!). Truly caring people. My poor oldest pup had pancreatitis (which he’s prone to) a few days after we picked them up, before I knew what it was I double checked to see if they noticed anything strange before I picked them up. They were very involved and concerned about the well being of my sweet boy until we figured out what it was! I look forward to continuing boarding services with you. It’s so nice to know your fur babies are being so well taken care of :-)”


14. Aleicia M.

“Aleicia is a great sitter. I am so glad she was able to keep Arie for me. She is so kind and nurturing. Arie loved being with her and that's what won me over. She took great care of him and even gave him a bath for me. I was not looking forward to the bath, but I knew he was going to need one after running around living his best life. He is even more spoiled now. Lol. Aleicia is such a sweet, kind person. Hope she will continue to be available when I need her in the future.”


15. Devin P.

“I will definitely book again. Devin was warm and inviting. She took excellent care of our fur baby with daily messages and pictures. Hendrix had a great time. We will be booking again. Thanks again for caring for our fur baby.”


16. Molly P.

“We loved Molly and her family. She is always quick to respond and made the drop off and pick up seamless with my husband. They asked great questions during our meeting and greet and we felt like our stuff was well loved and cared for with Molly. Our dog seemed to like her two dogs and they have a nice yard for them to lounge in. We are looking forward to rebooking soon!”

About: I have pet sat for many families in the past. I have about 3 regulars. I started pet sitting in my neighborhood about 2 and a half years ago and also got on another app and have had about 2 sittings from there. I have pet sat mostly dogs but also cats. I have done overnights, visits throughout the day, boarding in my home, walking, etc. I am also about to start including dog training! I also would love to add in hiking! I would even be up for doing day care in my home! I have also cared for senior dogs and have experience with giving medications. I have a German Shepherd so I love to get out and be active! I am currently working part time but am planning to go fully to pet sitting so I can help more pet owners out! I am not in school so I will be available the whole day to spend time with your pups. Your pup will be able to go outside when needed and get love 24/7. We have a fully fenced yard so lots of room for your pup to run! We also go on daily walks and sometimes enjoy going out hiking or to the park. I am very keen on crate training so your pup will need to be crated while unsupervised in my home. This is for mine and my dogs safety but also for your dogs safety! We keep our home very clean and dog/ puppy proof so no need to worry about your pup getting into anything! We also keep chew bones up and any high value items up. They get these high value items when they are individually in their crates or their own space! We have three dogs for your pup to play and socialize with always under supervision of me or the other person in my home.

19. Ayaka S.

“Akaya did a wonderful job taking care of our dog. We got daily photos and videos and Jessie felt right at home. We will definitely use her again!”


20. Kendra G.

“Kendra was very sweet, accommodating, and professional throughout the entire process. She took excellent care of our golden doodle “Zuri” and made sure to update us with pictures and texts daily. She will definitely be our first choice for boarding from this point on! Thank you Kendra!”
