“Shauna and Peter were amazing! The reviews are all accurate and I'm so glad we found them. They took such good care of our puppy and sent us daily updates (photos and videos). The whole process was super easy and we were worried since this was our first time using Rover. When we picked up our puppy all his stuff was packed nicely and he was waiting for us at the front, ready and fed. We couldn't believe how great this app is and the loving families who opened up their home to our fur baby. Thank you Shauna and Peter for taking such good care of Leo.”
“June was a fantastic sitter for our two pups while we were away! She was so communicative and sent pictures a few times every day so we could see how happy they were. One of our dogs is deathly afraid of thunderstorms and she comforted him throughout the night. She also took them on several walks, which they absolutely love and brought our pups back home when our flight was delayed and the timing became an issue. I 100% recommend June -she treated our dogs like her own!”
“Jacqueline and Uriel loved my dog just like she was their own. I really appreciated the photos and videos throughout her time with them! I highly recommend and will visit again!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Cheryl! She cared for our pup, Walter, as if he were her own—showering him with love, attention, and the sweetest energy. Cheryl sent us daily updates and adorable photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It was clear Walter was happy, safe, and well cared for. Cheryl is kind, thoughtful, and incredibly reliable. We’re so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Absolutely the best experience we ever had! Geraldene cared for our elderly pooch like her own. The biggest take away we had was we never had to worry about Tofu while we were gone. Geraldene gave us reassurance and trust, qualities we look for in a sitter. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!”
About: I've raised all my dogs from puppy to senior (oldest 16 years). All kinds of dogs too, from corgy to lab, so I'm ready for anything. Currently unlimited availability. I'm up early and ready to see nature. Availability change in a few weeks to weekends. I'm excited to make new dogs friends. I'm a walker and a runner so I'll be walking them frequently and if they can handle it, I'll walk them to the nearby lake path.

“Moki loved his time with David and Mary. He has got comfortable with them really quick. This is the second time they have sat Moki and he was really happy too see them again.”
“Roberto and his family welcomed my dog to his family who are all dog lovers. He was well cared for and enjoyed his time with them. Would confidently recommend Roberto.”
“Carla provides the best care! Our dog loves staying with her. Lots of fun running around the fenced yard and playing with Carla & her dogs. Then comfy naps inside. Carla regularly sends videos & photos so we know how our dog is doing.”
“We felt secure and confident leaving our dog, River, with Carolyn for a little bit over than 2 weeks. Carolyn was very nice and patient, takes River out for walks and swimming. She sends us frequent updates and pictures and we love these updates especially since we miss our pup when we’re away. River is home now and may be a little bit sad since her stay with Carolyn seemed like a fun pup vacation. 😆”
“Nancy was so sweet to our aging dog. You could tell she really cares about her furry guests. Nancy sent pics and updates-much appreciated. Our dog loved the attention and hanging out with Nancy’s dog and cat.”
“Steph was great. My dog enjoyed running around the yard, playing with her pup, and relaxing when he wanted a break. Steph sent updates during the stay, which I really appreciated. Her home was clean and welcoming, and my dog was his normal happy self when I picked him up. Drop off and pick up were easy, and she was flexible with timing. I would happily book with her again.”
“Becca took great care of Avery. She's a very energetic terrier with "little dog" syndrome and I worry about how well she will get along with larger dogs. Becca had the foresight to have a separate room prepared for Avery's meals, so there wouldn't be any altercations over mealtime, allowed the two dogs to get acquainted under supervision so they could set their own boundaries, then kept in touch with me & sent pictures to show the two dogs playing happily together. Avery came home happy & well loved and I was able to relax and enjoy my cousin's wedding. All in all a great experience.”
“Yaqi was amazing! She took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay. I felt very comfortable knowing my dog was in such good hands. Everything went smoothly, and my dog came back happy and well cared for. I truly appreciate her attention and kindness. Highly recommend!”
“We just want to say thank you to Molly she was really a great pick for our Australian Shepard named auggie he has separation anxiety really bad and Molly did all that she could to make him feel at home we are very thankful we found her to make our vacation a lot enjoyable knowing auggie was in good hands thanks Molly”
“Sonia and Greg were great with our dog! He had a good time and we got updates with photos throughout his stay. They also helped get our picky dog to eat while we were away. Definitely wonderful people to take care of your dog!”

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gilberts home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
