“Michael took great care of our sweet 11-yo dog, Jenny! This was our first time using Rover and Michael made it a great experience. Jenny was happy and we received many photos while we were gone. Thank you!”


“Guinness has separation anxiety and Marta was so kind. She contacted me and asked if there were any suggestions on how to get him to calm down. Then a day or two later I am getting pictures of him hanging out with other dogs. Marta and her children were great and sweet to Guinness. I will definitely book with her again.”


“Kyle and his family were great with our dogs!! We were nervous to leave them while we were away because of previous bad kennel experience, but Kyle was great. Another worry that we had was that one of our dogs takes medication daily, but he gave it to her with no problems! He has a great fenced backyard for the pups to run around, he took them for walks, played with them, sent lots of pics and videos, and showed them lots of love. Our dogs really enjoyed their stay. If you’re in the area we would 100% recommend Kyle!”


“Elisa is charming and knows about caring for older and smaller dogs. She immediately understood what my very old mini dachshund needs, and was patient and gentle. Elisa is equally great with people - very likable and trustworthy.”


“Monica is awesome with our Sky. She genuinely loves dogs and takes really special care to give ours the attention that she needs.

“I was a little apprehensive to leave my dogs with a sitter. I have only left them with family in the past. Emily answered my inquiry within 30 minutes. She gave me great information about her facility and her care philosophy. She allowed me a meet and greet before my stay so my dogs and I were all OK. She paid attention to my older dog's limitations and my younger dog's need for more exercise. My pets came home healthy . Emily even updated me with photos while I was away. I had a great experience with Rover.com.”


“Mike has taken really great care of our Puppy Bagheera!. Daily communication regards to puppy along with pictures made us feel like we were there with Bagheera. Definitely recommend Mike. Also looking forward to work with you for our future vacation.”


About: Hello! I’m currently a pre-vet major looking to take care of some furry friends :) I recently completed a NAVTA approved Veterinary Assistant Training course where I received exposure to medical and clinical experience. Im an active person who loves being outside. Long walks are no problem for me if you have a super active and outgoing dog ! Making sure your pets are comfortable and safe is my number one priority. I’m able to be flexible based on the pet’s needs and wants.

About: I absolutely love animals! I have taken care of various sorts of pets including hamsters, dogs, cats, fishes and birds. I have been involved in animal rescue and foster work. I love taking care of them ❤️ I own a Persian cat and four fishes, I look after them like they are my own kids. I have plenty of experience when it comes to taking care of cats, dogs, birds, and fishes. Your pet will feel at home when staying with me, I will make sure to love them like my own and play with them and look after them sincerely.

About: I have been watching my neighbors dogs for the past 17 years. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. Since I am young and active, I can take your dog on walks and provide plenty of exercise throughout the day. Additionally, I can provide overnight sitting and ensure your house looks occupied. I am more than happy to bring in your mail/packages, water your plants, adjust the blinds, turn on and off lights, bring garbage cans to the curb (and back) for trash pick up. I have a cat of my own named Oliver so I also have years of experience with cat care! I can come check on your feline friend and will feed, refresh water, play, and clean the litter box as needed. I am very free during the summer. During the week I can stop by anytime during the day, as well as provide overnight care. I am also free most weekends. I understand it is hard to leave your furry friend so I really do go out of my way to put pet owner's at ease. I will consistently provide updates and photos so you know you are in good hands.
