“David was very easy to work with and responded quickly to our questions/ concerns. Our dogs had access to a few enclosed acres on the property which was great for the dogs...a beautiful setting as well. Our 3 dogs got along well with David's dogs and another visiting dog.

About: Experienced pet sitter. Experience with reactive dogs. Happy to give your dog extra care and attention. Fenced in front and back yard. Must be okay with another friendly dog in the home. I typically do a morning walk after breakfast, and a nighttime walk after dinner. If a dog is staying with me, I usually avoid middle of the day walks as the pavement outside can get hot on warmer days. However I do have a fenced in yard and a deck, which is cooler in the middle of the day if they would like to explore. I have a fenced in yard, and a metal crate is your dog is used to crate training. I have a 5 year old lab/ Shepard mix who loves to play, but could also keep him separated if requested. I have plenty of toys but you are also welcome to bring any toys with you, put they may get lost under our deck! Dogs are welcome on the furniture and just about anywhere as long as they are properly trained not to potty on furniture!
“Christina provided excellent care for my 2 month old pup. I liked that she sent me pictures of him daily. She was very responsive over text message. I highly recommend Christina.”
“My dogs seemed to have a great time staying with Veronica and her husband! One of my dogs requires heart medication and eye drops multiple times a day and Veronica was able to handle that no problem. In fact, she inquired about some extra medication that was in my doggy’s overnight bag to make sure she didn’t miss anything. I like that attention to detail! Veronica provided updates and pictures of the doggies’ stay which we appreciated. I would recommend and trust Veronica as a responsible dog sitter ?”
About: Walks through Armstrong Redwoods are a favorite activity. I have a large yard and a dog friendly house. I have a couple of years experience working in a veterinary clinic giving me experience medicating animals, including giving injections. I have a pool for dogs who love to swim! I was a volunteer and puppy raiser for Canine Companions for Independence back in the mid to late 1980's, and a Puppy Petter for Assistance Dog Institute in the early 2000's. I've also kept busy with boarding in my home for friends and acquaintances. I love dogs!! I have Sundays and Mondays off from my full time job, but I can fit in a nice walk after 4 pm most other days. When I have someone's dog, they get my full attention; we play, exercise, snuggle. My focus is providing an enriching experience for your dog .

My pup also eats at Marti’s, when he didn’t eat at his boarding kennel. I have nothing but good things to say about Marti as a sitter.”

“Simply put, Sharon is the greatest! She took care of my dog a number of times, and I always felt safe and secure knowing that Hoover was with her! She loves all dogs like they are her own.... She is the only person that I truly trusted with my dog. The only reason Sharon isn't watching my dog anymore is because she has crossed over the rainbow bridge. I couldn't recommend her any higher! She is a gem!”
Forest Hills dog parents share their Rover experiences
Birgit watched our little terrier mix Juneau for three nights while we stayed nearby at a friend's vacation house that didn't allow dogs. Birgit has a great set up with a fenced yard in a quiet, wooded area. She spends a lot of quality time with the dog she is watching and took Juneau on outings with her for work and around town. Birgit even went the extra mile to drop off sunglasses I forgot, sent updates each day and dropped Juneua off at the end of her stay. Junuea is not an easy dog given her reactivity to other animals but Birgit was a pro and I'd trust her with Juneau again if she'd have us :)
Birgit is a great sitter, with a very dog-friendly spot. She gave us plenty of updates, and really went the extra mile with our girl, who felt quite at home in the fenced backyard. Our dog had some difficulties while she was petsitting, and Birgit was very patient and understanding.
