“Lee is incredible! We boarded our dog Mochi with her for two weeks while we traveled, and Lee took wonderful care of her. Mochi can be nervous around new people and dogs, and Lee made sure she was comfortable and safe in her care. Lee is also super communicative and responsive, and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend her!”



“Koda always has a blast at Jeff & Beths’s. So grateful she gets to go to such a sweet and safe home to play and cuddle and get so well taken care of. They are the best! Thank you!”


“Robin and Dan provided such loving and attentive care to Maica. They went above and beyond to keep her feeling safe and at home. They also provided wonderful updates with pictures and fun descriptions of Maica's activities. My dog has certain anxieties and sensitivities and they were very astute to pick up on them and provide the environment and comfort she needed. I was so grateful for their care. It would be my honor if they could care for Maica in the future.”


“I was in desperate need of a dog sitter for my puppy Shelby before a work trip and Chad really came through. I instantly felt comfortable leaving Shelby with him and his family. Shelby and his Pom became instant friends as Chad sent me pictures of them snuggling together.”


“Anna and Jason were amazing! They provided me with all sorts of updates about Piper during her stay. And, considering it was Piper's first time staying with them, she settled in well and relatively quickly. I would definitely have Piper stay with Anna and Jason again.”


“Astrid and her family took such good care of my puppy! My puppy was very comfortable and happy staying with her and her family. She is knowledgeable, kind, and sent updates throughout his stay. Highly recommended her! Will be booking with her again. Thanks, Astrid!”


“Awesome as always...our doggies love her yard and are happy when we pick them up.. Suzanne sends a daily picture or two so that we’re never out of touch... highly recommended”


About: I’d love to care for and walk your pets. Dog park romps, petting sessions, and snuggling provided. I care for them in my home or drop into your home as needed. Experience with large animals, geriatric and young animals. If you are traveling and need a reliable, fun, experienced sitter for your pets, I’d be happy to do a meet and greet and meet you and your pets. I have a 6year old neutered male Australian Sheppard and a 2 year old indoor/outdoor cat. Both are amenable to sharing their space with new furry friends. I'm an active retiree so I have plenty of time for your furry family members. My dog loves to play with new furry friends or chill and give them space. I have a fenced yard and dog door for in and out privileges. I accept dogs that are crated at night or free roaming. Home is well suited to pets.

“Kristen and Ryan were very welcoming of our pup! They were understanding of her nuances and helped her adjust to a new environment fast. They have a nice spacious home with a big backyard that our dog loved relaxing in. Kristen and Ryan were very communicative throughout the stay and sent daily updates with photos. 100% recommend!”



“Murphy had a great stay at Kim's, and she and her hubby sent frequent pictures (per my request) that helped put me at ease and to see that Murph was having a grand ole time. I do love that they live in my neighborhood (within walking distance), and I plan to have Murph stay with them again!”


“I was out of town for 6 nights, and Juliana and Katherine took amazing care of my dog, Pippi. They went above and beyond—taking her to different dog parks, on neighborhood walks, and making sure she felt right at home. I loved receiving the updates and great photos of her playing in the parks and relaxing in their dog-friendly backyard. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such caring hands. Highly recommend them!”


“I had an excellent experience with this dog sitter caring for my elderly dog. They ensured that all of my dog’s needs were met — from medication management to gentle exercise and plenty of love. Their regular updates gave me peace of mind. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for high-quality, caring support for their senior pet.”



“The best sitters! Molly always comes home so relaxed and is clearly SO comfortable with Natalie and Mathew. We’re so lucky to have found them!”


“Dvora was wonderful! My dog Ziva had a great 10 day stay with Dvora and her dog Shira. Dvora took her hiking a bunch, sent cute photos, and made sure that my picky dog was still eating enough. I came home to a happy, tired pup!”


“There’s no place like home but this is the closest place to it. Wonderful, warm, loving and caring home by a wonderful, loving and caring person. And her dear sweet mother too! 5 stars all around. I had to find a sitter on extreme short notice and I was so thrilled that Chawntea was willing to accept my pup with less than 12 hours notice and for a 13 day stay while I was out of the country. My pampered pooch was treated like her own and I honestly think she may have came back more spoiled than when I left her and after that much time away it was a wonderful feeling knowing she was cared for so well. She even gave her a bath! Definitely will be a repeat customer and looking forward to future play dates w/ Bailey. Thank you so much!”

Golf Links dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jason and Anna were the best puppysitters I’ve had. They were outstanding with communication and updates about my Gizzy boy. They sent lots of pictures and videos, and really put my mind at ease while I was away. They asked thorough and thoughtful questions about my pup during the meet and greet, so I was confident that he was in good hands. This was the best experience I’ve had yet with leaving my pup for a longish time.

We had a great experience with Astrid and her family when we needed a last-minute dogsitter over a weekend. She was attentive and flexible when we had to drop off a bit earlier than expected, and sent us plenty of photos to make sure we didn’t miss him too much! We’d absolutely board with her again.

Suzanne took care of Noamie, our elder Cavalier King Charles, with care, intention, and deep attention to detail. Noamie was very well taken care of, and he enjoyed the wide open garden space, the bird songs, and the freedom to just, well, be. We are beyond satisfied with the care he received from Suzanne, who was very responsive, very knowledgeable, and very well resourced!

Baxter had a great stay with Kim and her crew of pups! Kim provided regular updates with helpful details on how Baxter was doing, which put my mind at ease since it was his first stay there. He got lots of play time and enjoyed the backyard/garden. Kim is always friendly in her communications. I'd love for Baxter to stay with Kim again!

We had another great experience with Megan! From the moment we booked, communication was fantastic—quick responses, clear updates, and plenty of adorable pictures that made us feel at ease while we were away. Our pup came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. It’s obvious Megan treated our dog like family, and we really appreciate the extra care and attention. We’ll definitely be booking again in the future!

Zach sent photos of my minnie Aussie, Blu, each day of his stay, and took him on walks daily. I appreciated Zach checking in to ask questions. Blu was in great spirit when I picked him on the last day as well. Hopefully Blu was manageable as he is very vocal. Would highly recommend Zach!

Jeffrey and Robert are ideal caregivers for our dog Chase! They are reliable, attentive, communicative and warm with pups and humans alike. When we’re on one of our human breaks, it’s wonderful to know Chase is having his own spa-time at their idyllic doggie villa, lounging in their gorgeous, expansive yard or being taken on multiple daily walks around town. I also really appreciate that they’ve come through for me at the last minute when I’ve suddenly needed a sitter. You can’t go wrong with this wonderful pair of dog-lovers. Happy repeat customer here!

Natalie and Matthew are so communicative and send so many pictures and videos. You just know that your pup is happy at their place and that they are treating them with the best of care. Unfortunately, my dog did not want to leave, which also made me feel good about letting him stay there!

Mary did an awesome job watching our Great Dane while we were out of the country for 10 days. She was also very flexible in allowing us to set up a couple of brief visits in advance to help our dog get comfortable before we left town. I would definitely recommend Mary and request her services again!
