“Our dog Hailee had a great stay with Tracy. She seemed happy and well taken care of, and Tracy sent many photos during the stay to keep us updated. I would absolutely book Tracy again!”

“It was a pleasure working with Jacklyn. She was responsive and pleasant. Ollie seemed to be relaxed and calm around her. When we picked him up he seemed comfortable. We will definitely board Ollie with Jacklyn again.”
“We had a fantastic experience with Rachel. From start to finish, everything was smooth, professional, and caring. Texts/photos/updates were frequent, letting me know how my pet was doing. That gave me peace of mind while I was away.”
About: I’m a dog-loving neighbor and Bernedoodle parent who enjoys caring for pups like family. I work from home and live in a cozy house with a fenced backyard, near plenty of green spaces and school fields for walks. My middle school kids and friendly Bernedoodle love having dog guests around—we’ll make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home! I work from home, so I’m around all day to keep your pup company. Our routine usually includes morning and evening walks around the neighborhood or nearby parks, giving the dogs plenty of exercise and sniff time. During the day, they hang out with me in the house or relax in our fenced backyard—napping, playing, or just keeping me company while I work. It’s a calm, happy environment with lots of love and attention throughout the day. Your dog’s comfort and safety are always my top priority. Our home is a single-family house with a securely fenced backyard where dogs can play safely under supervision. Indoors, dogs are welcome to roam freely, nap on comfy spots, and be part of our daily life. I take time to understand each dog’s needs and routine—whether it’s feeding schedule, favorite toys, or quiet time preferences—so they can settle in smoothly. I also keep a close eye on playtime to make sure all dogs feel comfortable and relaxed. With my friendly Bernedoodle and caring middle-school kids, your pup will be surrounded by gentle company, calm energy, and plenty of affection. You can trust that they’ll be cared for just like one of our own.
“Manli was terrific! Beautiful home and a pleasant environment. She sent me daily pictures of how my Mac was doing, which was especially great given this was his first time boarding in someone's home (instead of a kennel). Highly recommended!”
“We had a last minute trip come up a week before leaving but Daniel was available and happy to watch Bean on short notice. He was knowledgeable, knew exactly what to do, and sent pictures and videos of Bean during the 2 day stay. We knew Bean was in great hands - he looked comfortable and like he had a great time with Daniel.”
“Darya boarded my dachshund, Millie, and my cat, Theo, for 4 nights while I was out of town. She sent photo updates and kept me in the loop with any concerns. My pets seem to have been well taken care of! Would recommend!”
“Ahmyah was amazing! She took Brody in for a full week with short notice and kept us updated throughout with pictures! She was very attentive to his needs, and it was easy to tell that Brody loved her. Would definitely use again!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I've cared for dogs with medical challenges and disabilities and my own dog, Harold, is paralyzed in his rear end. Your dogs will be a part of our family for the time they stay with me. I work mostly from home but may go to the office a few days a week for a few hours. I run in the morning, if your dog is athletic they will come with, or go out for a mellow walk in the morning. I live in a quiet neighborhood behind a park where the dogs can run and walk. I care for dogs in my home. The house has a fenced back yard and we can take trips to dog parks, if your dog is into that. I have two dogs (a lab and a chihuahua mix) so your dog will have dog buddies to play with.
About: We’re a caring couple who genuinely love spending time with animals of all kinds! Between the two of us, one is home full-time, so your pet will always have company, supervision, and care — no long hours alone. We’ve both grown up with dogs and cats, and we’re comfortable caring for pets of different personalities — from energetic pups to calm seniors. We understand that every pet has their own routine, and we make sure to follow feeding, walking, and playtime schedules exactly as you prefer. We’re also familiar with basic training cues, administering oral medication, and providing extra patience for shy or anxious pets. What truly sets us apart is our team approach — there’s always someone to give attention, love, and updates. You’ll receive plenty of photos, messages, and reassurance while you’re away. We’re new to Rover, but not new to caring for pets — and we can’t wait to welcome your furry family member into our home for the holidays and beyond! 🐶❤️🐾 Our routine works perfectly for pet care! Saumya works from home full-time, so your pet will always have company during the day. I’m home in the mornings and evenings for extra walks, playtime, and snuggles. Between the two of us, your furry friend will have round-the-clock attention, love, and supervision — no lonely hours here! ❤️🐾 We live in a calm, pet-friendly apartment with a private patio and Rengstorff Park just steps away for safe daily walks and playtime. There are no other pets or children in our home, so your furry friend will have a quiet and relaxing stay with our full attention. We keep doors and patio areas secure at all times, and pets are always on a leash outdoors. We follow each pet’s specific routine for feeding, walks, and bedtime, and can crate your dog if preferred for comfort or safety. Our goal is to make every pet feel at home and cared for as if they were our own. 🐾
“We had a last minute trip and Crystal was a lifesaver. She was incredibly flexible and responsive. She did a meet and greet with our dog the day I reached out to her and she and our dog were instant friends. She was also able to accommodate our last minute flight changes. Our dog enjoyed his stay. We recommend Crystal highly!”
“Jifu and his wife took very good care of our dog for 4 nights. He was fed on time and per our requests. Daily updates and photos. They even put a tag on his harness to be extra cautious. Their dog Joky is also super friendly. I hope that we can book them in our next trip!”
“Mia had the best time with Kevin and Sarah! We received constant updates with photos and videos of Mia during her stay that left us feeling comfort and confident that she was having a blast! She had so much outdoor time and even found some new favorite toys :D Thank you Kevin and Sarah!”
“Jennifer was absolutely amazing and took such good care of my sweet and energetic Australian Shepherd. She was easy to communicate with, and I got pics of him having so much fun playing with her pups, zooming in her backyard, and going on walks throughout his stay. He was in very capable hands, and I will definitely book with Jennifer again!”
“Margaret was an amazing host for our pup. She was flexible with timing when our flight was delayed, and sent a picture/video and message daily to let us know how Emmy was doing. She went above and beyond to take care of Emmy, and we will absolutely be contacting Margaret again for our next trip. Highly recommend!”
“Step took good care of our boy. He communicated and provided photos which I love. Our boy had a great time hanging with Step and his family and made a new friend with their pet. I would def recommend a stay with Step”

Jasmine was perfect! She took such great care of our 9# little dog. This was his first time boarding with a stranger, but it could not have gone more smoothly. She clearly spent a lot of time with him and did everything she could to make him comfortable and keep him entertained (to the extent his little brain allows for entertainment). She provided frequent updates with beautiful pictures. We will definitely use Jasmine again when the need arises. First rate!
Mia had the best time with Kevin and Sarah! We received constant updates with photos and videos of Mia during her stay that left us feeling comfort and confident that she was having a blast! She had so much outdoor time and even found some new favorite toys :D Thank you Kevin and Sarah!
Thank you, Jie and George for taking such great care of Skeeter today! I'm amazed by how much time you spent with playing him, walking him and giving him treats. He's completely knocked out now after such a busy day with you! And, thank you also for the constant communication on how he was doing. I really appreciated the photos and videos!
John was amazing with my pup. He provided such excellent care for my girl during her stay. She struggles with separation anxiety and John was so accommodating with her and me. He provided lots of updates throughout the stay. I highly recommend John and I’ll be sure to book him for any future dog sitting needs.
Julie was an amazing sitter. She kept me constantly updated with pictures/messages of Ariel while I was across the state. I also really appreciated. The fact that she took. She went above and beyond to meet me for coffee before dropping off Ariel, in order to see if her & Ariel were compatible. I think this really helped ease my dogs mind as she has separation anxiety. Julie was also able to accomodate me really last minute & I really appreciated that. Definitely would book again ✨☺️
We've used Dylan several times, and this last time, he accommodated at the last minute and we were so appreciative. I can tell my dog loves staying here, because he runs to see Dylan as soon as we get out of the car. I feel very comfortable leaving my dog with Dylan and we will use him again. Also, he is prompt and responsive!
Yun and his partner did a great job taking care of our pup, Bagel, for a whole week. Bagel had lots of fun with them, they walked and played fetch with him daily. They made sure they understood the care instructions we provided and sent daily updates. Most importantly, Bagel came home a happy dog. Highly recommend!
