“Pandora had such a great time! My American Bulldog can be a handful sometimes, but Danielle made her feel right at home. I got daily updates and photos, which really put me at ease while I was away. It was clear she was well cared for and loved during her stay. I highly recommend and will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Dave is amazing! We had our dog stay with him for a day. Dave took a great care of our boy! I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants their dog(s) to feel comfortable and happy. I will be going back to him for all future help. Thank you so much!”
“Lisa and her family was amazing!! Probably the best sitter experience we have had on Rover! She sent us a lot of pics. Her kiddos took our dog on lots of walks and kept him busy (and feeling loved).”

“Robert did great! Even though Logan was there for a shorter stay, I got plenty of pics and Logan looked happy/comfortable in all of them! I picked him up this morning and he's exhausted so I'm sure he had a good time”

About: 20 years boardings of every size-small to larg. I run with your dogs, and keep a steady routine of 4 walks a day or more. I work from home once a week and go home for lunch daily - this flexibility lets me walk the pups at least 4 times a day. I only care for one family of dogs at a time, so your pup gets my full attention in a calm, loving, and trusting home.
“I was very nervous about leaving my dog especially using an app. My neighbor normally keeps my dog when I travel so this was hard for me. Quandra did a meet and greet with Harvey before his stay and he was comfortable with her. When I took Harvey to stay he ran right into her house. Quandra sent pictures and took great care of Harvey ?❤️”

About: I have loved animals since childhood, and when I was a child I had a cat. I also lived with my boyfriend's family for a year, they had a dog and I took care of Him. Now periodically my friends leave their dogs with me when they go on a trip or on a business trip. I love this expression: "Dogs talk, but only to those who can listen." I work online so I have a lot of time to play and take care of your dogs. The second part of the day is more freely , but I have a flexible schedule and can combine work and pet care. I have a large one-room apartment with plenty of space for a dog. Near the house there is a large area outside for walking, a few minutes away there is a large park with a lake. I walk the dog several times a day, feed it on schedule, and play with the cats' and dogs' favorite toys.

About: Hi, I'm Denise! Welcome to my ranch, where I offer a safe, spacious, and highly attentive "home away from home" for your pets. If you have a senior, medically fragile, or special-needs pet, you can travel with complete peace of mind. I am fully experienced in handling complex medical routines, monitoring health conditions, and administering medications (including oral, topical, and injections) accurately and on time. I have years of experience fostering dogs, and can provide the best care for your family member. My job is to manage our ranch. With the exception of a short task or meal, I am available 24/7 when your pet is at the ranch. What a Stay Looks Like: • For Dogs: Your pup will have access to a dedicated, secure yard to run, play, and stretch their legs safely, balanced with plenty of cozy indoor rest time. • For Cats & Kittens: Guests enjoy a spacious, completely dog-free finished basement sanctuary. It is a quiet, low-stress environment filled with individual attention, fresh litter, and plenty of room to explore or nap. • For Small Pets: I provide a peaceful environment for rabbits, guinea pigs, birds, or reptiles away from the hustle and bustle. (Note: Owners provide the enclosure, food, and bedding). • For Medical & Senior Guests: I maintain a strict log of all medication schedules, monitor comfort and mobility levels, and strictly follow your veterinarian's care instructions. To ensure a perfect, stress-free stay, I require a quick Meet & Greet prior to your first booking so we can review your pet's routine and medical needs (that can be a virtual meeting). I will send you regular text and photo updates throughout their stay so you always know exactly how your family member is doing. I look forward to welcoming your pets to the ranch!

“I would highly recommend Lori! Our dog is 13 so I worried more about her care but Lori sent pictures and daily updates on her well-being. We did the meet and greet first so they’d get acquainted and they were perfect together. I will definitely use Rover.com again. I wasn’t aware of this company but much better than a kennel.”

“Kim and her family took such good care of our pups! She was extremely communicative throughout our weekend away, providing updates of all of their fun activities. When we picked our dogs up, they fell asleep on the car ride home - a true sign they had a great time.”

“So grateful for Tamara and her pups! It’s a fun vacation for Wiggles every time she stays with them. Wiggles, unfortunately, wore a cone and itchy paws when we dropped her off and Tamara was so helpful making sure she had her medicine 2x a day and topical on Wiggles. When we returned, Wiggles was feeling so much better! 💖”

“Lizbeth is the best. This is our second time boarding our dog with her. She goes above and beyond and is very knowledgeable and friendly. She is also very flexible. I highly recommend Lizbeth.”

“Bailey is a dog whisperer. She took care of our poodle mix over the holiday and was extremely communicative and sent pics and videos/ so that we knew he was in good hands. She is so sweet and has a genuine understanding and love for dogs. Highly recommend! !”


“Pennie was so fabulous. I could tell at our initial meet and greet at her home that she loves the pets she cares for and ensures the environment they're staying in suits their needs perfectly. We left our two dogs with her for a week and received pictures daily. She even let our bulldog mix who is afraid of thunder sleep in her room during three days of bad storms. I'm so happy we found Pennie after our previous dog sitter moved out of state.”

“I highly recommend Kim. From the meet and greet, we knew Leila, our 12 year old Havanese, will be happy and safe. Kim and her kids are pet lovers. The moment we parked our car, and as soon as her kids saw Leila, they hugged and played with her, so adorable. Kim would send photos every few hours, which I appreciate. Kim lives in a safe and quiet community in Darien, she also has a decent size backyard where Leila can play. Kim also texts me for any updates. Leila loves the attention! Thanks Kim :)”

“Dez is our go to dog sitter on Rover! He takes great care of our anxious pup and has worked with us to make her as calm and comfortable as possible during her stay. This was the longest we've ever left our dog and it was such a comfort to know she was in great hands. He also administered some meds for her and gave me updates on her condition along the way. Dez is the best!”

Jean and Al were so great. They treated our girl like she was their own. We could tell how happy and comfortable she was with the pictures Jean sent and even when we picked her up as she was happy to keep hanging out and play while we talked whereas with a lot of other sitters, she’s been happy to go home asap.

Thrudy & her boys took wonderful care of Poppy! She kept us updated with photos of walks at a local park and the lake. Poppy seemed at ease from the start. It was obvious that her kids also love dogs. Knowing our pup was in good care gave us peace of mind while away. Highly recommend!

We had such a great experience with Edgar watching Koa over Labor Day weekend! Koa seemed right at home from the start—he ate well, got lots of playtime with Edgar’s kids and their dog London, and seemed so happy and comfortable when we picked him up. Edgar was incredibly thoughtful about the whole process and even set up a meet-and-greet beforehand so Koa and London could get to know each other and so we could see the space and feel comfortable leaving Koa there. He was kind, communicative, and genuinely caring, and kept us updated throughout the weekend. We wouldn’t hesitate to have Edgar watch Koa again!

Natalie was great with our dog while we were out of town. He got along great with her cats and we got plenty of pictures while we were gone of him living his best life looking relaxed and happy. We’d definitely book with Natalie again if she’s available next time we’re traveling!

Rachel is amazing!! She kept in touch with us throughout the stay which I really appreciated it, she sent photos and in every photo Stella looked so happy and I knew she was having a blast. Will definitely book with Rachel again. Thank you so much for taking care of our Stella girl💓

Julie was amazing with Greeicy! She took care of her as if she were her own dog and was very attentive the entire time. Greeicy had such a great time and was so happy to be around other dogs — I truly appreciate that! I’ll definitely book with Julie again next time!
