“Ellie had the best stay and did not want to leave! Michele provided exceptional care, did a fantastic job communicating and sent adorable picture updates. We felt like she was staying with a close family friend.”


“Schejn and family were excellent caring for our girl. We were nervous having a stranger watch our baby, especially because she’s an only dog and we weren’t sure how she would react to others. We did a meet and greet and immediately felt at ease. We knew Vesper would be well cared for and have the added benefit of socializing in an environment where she would be able to have her own space as well if needed. We loved getting pictures and updates which allowed me to relax and enjoy vacation knowing she was well cared for. We will definitely be repeat customers and can’t thank Schejn enough!”



“Our Prince had a great time with Kelly!!! She was very helpful when it came to the needs of Prince and went above and beyond for his needs! Would highly recommend and we will definitely use Kelly in the future! Thank you so much for caring for Prince!!!”


“Riley loves Karen & Sean! As a dog owner/mom, it’s important not have any hesitation leaving your fur baby when you go away. I’m thankful for their care!”


“I have been using Rover.com for 3 years and Sandee has exceeded our expectations as a care giver. I love that she only took one dog at a time. We felt our dog was well cared for and loved as we would. She was very accommodating when we needed to change our day. She will be the first we ask for, the next time we need a sitter.”


“Our dog was really happy with Eric. He sent frequent updates, with both pictures and videos. Not only did Chrissy enjoy her stay, but Eric seemed to enjoy having her — you can’t ask for a better sitter than someone who likes your dog. Thanks, Eric!”


“Amy is an angle. She was so down to earth and I felt at ease leaning my boy with her. She kept me updated throughout the entire day with pictures and videos. She took my baby on an adventure with lots of trips and care rides which he loves. I told her what he likes and didn’t and she made sure to do all the things he loves. In every picture and video she sent I saw how happy my baby boy was. Definitely booking with her again! Thank you so much he had so much fun and you showed him so much love. 😊😊”



“We had a great first experience with Mary Sue, who we found through the Rover app. From start to finish, Mary Sue provided excellent care for our pup Roxie. She sent frequent updates and pictures, which put our minds at ease while we were away. It was clear that she treated Roxie like her own, and Roxie came home tired and happy. We are so grateful for Mary Sue's care and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a responsible and loving dog sitter.”


“Margaret did a great job keeping our 2 dogs. She was very flexible with our travel plans and impending bad weather. You can tell she loves the dogs.”


“I think Cody really enjoyed his first Boarding with Chelsea! We will certainly be back! In fact already have another Boarding booked! Chelsea communicated great and sent pictures. Her parents being there are an added bonus! Cody is getting lots of love!”



“Bob and Susan were the best. Homer was happy and exhausted when we picked him up. He had tons of playtime with their other houseguests and they provided us with plenty of photos and updates throughout his stay. We will absolutely use them again the next time we are in the area.”

“We are extremely grateful to Marvina for taking such tender care of our two pups. Knowing our pups were safe and loved in her home allowed us to enjoy our time with family in a busy city, which would not be fun for Fred and Daisey. 🐾🐾”


“Liliana is an amazing sitter always was available when Gino and I needed her so happy my Gino got to know her and simba 😊.. she is patient and loving 🥰”


About: I've been the primary person caring for the household dog for over five years now. I have a keen eye for details and a high sense of responsibility when it comes to the care of those who cannot speak for themselves. I also have experience hosting for multi-day sleepovers and managing the dynamics of a small (2-3 dog) temporary pack. I work full time during the week, but am available all major holidays and weekends. I currently walk and feed my dog twice a day, so adding your pup to the routine would be a breeze! Although I don't have a fenced in yard, there is a safe neighborhood nearby where we walk our dog daily. I have one dog currently who has loved every other dog he's ever met and would be happy to share his toys! We do allow pets on the couches & beds, but would be able to crate at night if that is preferred.

“Our dogs had the best time at Kelly’s. Our one pup had just been spayed and Kelly made sure she received her meds and got the TLC she needed. We will definitely book again.”


“Michele and Paul were great! I was sent super cute pictures everyday! I love how they included Mayzie in everything they did while they had her! I will definitely use her again!”


“Lori takes such great care of our labradoodle. She’s been a lifesaver for us when we need to go out of town and leave our furry friend at home. It’s comforting to know she’s in such good hands. Thanks Lori!!!”


“5-stars for Jen G! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I think we’re all nervous leaving our fur babies with a new sitter. No worries with Jen. She treats them like her own and they get spoiled with love and attention. Her assistants Baxter and Rigby were a joy for our Tanner to play with. He can’t wait to return! Jen’s communication along with many hilarious photos from their playtime were excellent and reassuring. Thank you, Jen!”
