“This was my boy Bodhi’s first stay with Steven and I am very happy I chose him to sit. Excellent communication with daily pics/videos, and really friendly and personable. Making him my go-to for future sitting!”
“Kara was able to accommodate my dog Dobby on really short notice. My dog has really bad separation anxiety and Kara let him sleep in bed with her *cue tears*. Kara was super quick to respond with updates and sent pics. Both Kara and her dog Nellie were welcoming and made him feel so comfortable. Nellie and Dobby played and had so much fun I think he was a little sad when we got home. :P 10/10 would book with Kara and Nellie again!”
“Cynthia was fabulous with our dog!! She sent pics and video of her having fun and settling in well. She also accommodated us at last minute notice. Thanks for everything and we will definitely be using you again!!”
“Andrew and Angela were amazing. They took really good care of our pup. They sent me regular updates and pictures, made sure that my pup was eating adequately, answered all my questions promptly and most importantly was so accommodative to last minute changes. They are very kind and understanding. We couldn’t have found a better family to take care of our pup. I would give them more than five stars if I could. Thanks Andrew and Angela for giving Wiley a home away from home. He can’t wait to see you guys again.”
“We felt very comfortable leaving Wallace with Brittany. There were a couple minor issues we forgot to let her know were normal for him and she contacted us right away with her concerns. He came home happy and healthy. Thank you!”
About: I started dog sitting when I was a young teenager, but I didn’t have my own dog until 2019. Since then I’ve been able to watch friends and family members dogs. I used Rover services for my own dog and realized it would be fun to care for others’ pets and provide play dates for my dog at the same time. I work from home Monday-Friday and we’re typically home on weekends. My dog is friendly and happy to play with others or relax all day. We have a fenced in yard and are very focused on safety. We have plenty of sidewalks to take walks on. I allow dogs on furniture and have plenty of dog beds and toys.
“Pattie was amazing and truly heaven sent. She was wonderful with my pup and treated her like her own. Pattie also sent us updates frequently and just made it very comfortable for us. I suffer from somewhat separation anxiety when we leave town for vacations and leave my pup. Pups are like your children and Pattie treated her as such! Pattie made this experience very pleasant and my pup loved her. I will be booking with Pattie again!”
“Jamie and her husband took wonderful care of Mistral! Communication was excellent throughout his stay, and they sent me photos. They even surprised Mistral with a few of their daughter's soft balls to take home, which was such a thoughtful gesture. It's clear they genuinely love dogs and treat them like family. I would absolutely recommend Jamie and her husband to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter. Thank you both!”
“We are very happy with the care Kadi provided for our dog, Louie! She put effort into making him comfortable, and he came home rested and calm. Kadi provides a safe, secure, and loving environment, and I highly recommend her!”
“Frieda was a happy girl when she came home. She seemed to have enjoyed her stay. Anna was flexible and worked with Frieda's need to be with people. We appreciate Anna's ability to accommodate Frieda's needs. Would love to use Anna again.”
About: I got my first dog when I was in 12. Her name was Egypt and she was a red nose pit and at the time i didn’t know much about dogs but the love i grew for her and caring for her was so deep. She needed me for everyday survival but I learned I needed her much more than she needed me. I feel that way about all animals and I will treat your pet as if they are Egypt. I have dog sat friends/family pets before as well, i walked, fed, bathed, their/my pets as well as cleaning their enclosures and dealing with doggie periods. I also have cared for a hamster and bearded dragon before so I have experience will pets other than cats or dogs! I’m currently working 11-7pm shifts with Wednesday and Sundays off, so I am free before 11, after 7 and all day on the days I do not have work! I’d like to fit in pet care as much as I can! I often do drop-ins/walks on my lunch break so that is always an option as well! Just message me :) I currently live at an apartment and would prefer to care for your pets in your home however, I do offer boarding as well. I have no problem cleaning up and refreshing the food bowls and litter boxes. Also making sure there are no paw prints on the floor if it’s wet or muddy outside. I love cleaning so also just cleaning up after myself or your pet if an accident occurs.
“Kayla did a fantastic job taking care of our 7.5 month old mini golden doodle pup, Eevee. Eevee started her first heat cycle during her stay and Kayla handled the unexpected situation very professionally by making sure Eevee wasn’t around male dogs, putting her in a diaper, keeping her clean, and helping her manage the discomfort. She kept us updated in a timely manner as well. Would definitely recommend Kayla and have Eevee stay with her again.”
“Andrew did a fantastic job! After a short adjustment period (he never stayed at a strangers house), my dog really enjoyed the stay. Communication was excellent and I loved receiving morning and evening updates with pictures—it gave me great peace of mind. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”
“I greatly appreciate the care Katina gave our dog Ziggy when we were out of town. Ziggy can be a high energy guy but she made sure Ziggy was comfortable and happy. We loved receiving the pictures and updates throughout his overnight stay. We would for sure use Katina again in the future.”
“Lauren and Chris always go above and beyond for my dog. They are very kind and thoughtful and take the extra step to make her feel special when she stays with them. They are my #1 sitters, highly recommend.”
“Aminah was really great! She kept me updated it about my fur baby when I was out of town. She very attentive and keep your fur baby active. She has a sweet personality. Will be booking again with her”

Cheryl is a very good communicator and our small dog was happy and relaxed after her recent stay with her - and it was easy to keep in touch with Cheryl. We were happy with how smoothly and straightforwardly everything went throughout this whole process with Cheryl and we would be happy to use her services again.
I am so thankful for the care that Beth provided for my baby boy, Maxwell. She went above and beyond in caring for him. She spoiled him rotten! I'm sure he misses her and her home. She took him for multiple daily walks and that's not an easy task! He loves to sniff everything. She cared for him like he was hers. I definitely recommend Beth for your fur baby!
I can’t thank you enough for helping me last minute watching Chelsea last week. The energy of your person and your home space is so grounding and calming was the immediate presence that I was relieved with upon meeting you. I needed my baby somewhere safe and peaceful and you provided that thank you beautiful human would love to work with you again! Tipped you in cash.
Demi was absolutely amazing! She was very professional, caring, and went above and beyond while watching my pet. She kept me updated throughout the stay with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my pet was surrounded by a loving family who helped provide plenty of care and attention. I could tell my pet was treated like family, and I truly appreciated the love and dedication. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!
Megan was an amazing dog sitter. She checked in with me regularly and kept me updated throughout my trip. I truly appreciated that her top priority was making sure my dog was comfortable, which gave me peace of mind during my vacation. Knowing that Bacon was well cared for and comfortable allowed me to fully enjoy my time away. I will definitely book with her again for my next trip and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.
So happy that Mark and Nadine were able to watch Cora on our weeklong vacation. We received frequent l updates which we liked, and we were really comfortable leaving her with them as they love dogs and are very attentive. Definitely would use them again to watch our dog!
