“Lorena was great. This was Tuesday's first time staying with someone new and it worked out really well. Lorena and her family made her feel comfortable. Lorena was very responsive, flexible and understanding!”


“Kuma loved his stay with Karen!! He was well cared for, she took him on hikes and long walks and sent videos and photos to let me know how he was doing. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend leaving your pet in her care. Thank you Karen!”


“Emily and Patrick were absolutely incredible with Isla! From the moment we dropped her off, we felt at ease knowing she was in such caring hands. Their dog, Winter, got along so well with Isla, and it was heartwarming to see how much fun they had together. They went above and beyond to make sure Isla was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. We also want to give a big thank you to their son, who was so sweet and played with Isla! Their patience and attentiveness truly made a difference, and we couldn’t be happier with their boarding services. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch pet care!”


About: I’ve cared for my Australian Shepherd for over 9 years, helping him thrive into seniorhood with daily enrichment, joint care, and gentle exercise. I’m comfortable administering medication, supporting older dogs, and reading animal body language. I treat every pet like family—attentive, calm, and tuned in to their unique needs I am currently open to most hours, I am in between jobs, and attempting to supplement my search with income in alternative manners so I am available during most weekdays and weekends, and on a case-by-case basis, I can work with you and your needs. I have a shared fenced yard and live in the basement unit of a single family home. I have a 11 year old Australian Shepherd, who is polite, loves being involved with others. He is slow to react to hostility, meaning he can take a lot of nonsense, but he knows how to tell the kids to slow down. He also is anti-conflict and loves to make sure everyone is safe. How we he’s getting older and will ‘behavior check’ excessive oversteps with typical behavior


“Would rebook in a heartbeat! Kay was great at communicating about drop off / pickup and updating me and sending cute pictures. My dog obviously had a great time! Thank you so much, Kay!”


“We are so grateful to Yunchun for taking our last-minute boarding request! They did an amazing job caring for our dog Pear. Pear came back happy and tired after lots of playtime and fetch, which is his favorite. It was clear he had a great time. Would absolutely book with Yunchun again - highly recommend”


“We are so happy to have found Kathryn and Mark to care for Rosie. They put up with her silliness (eg, raiding their pantry) and took very good care of her. We have already booked with them again.”


“Ling and her daughter took great care of Stormie. This was the first time we used Rover, and also the first time Stormie boarded with someone she doesn’t know. When Stormie was nervous seeing us leave, Ling’s daughter handle the situation really well. Really appreciate it!”


“Sherlock had a great time with Karen and her family. They were so caring and affectionate and he came home happy, tired and all clean and smelling great! Thank you!”


“Nathan was very responsive and accesible all the time that he was taking care of our dog, which I appreciate it very much. He was also flexible with drop off and pick up time. He sent many photos of my dog playing with his dogs in his garden or doing other activities. He provided the medication without any problem to our senior dog. I would recommend him anytime! Thank you Nathan for taking care of our Ella so nicely!!! Looking forward to the next opportunity.”


“We can’t thank Lisa enough for the care and attention she showered on our older dog Max!!! Her reports were thorough and chocked full of information and pictures. It was reassuring to know Max was in great hands! We highly recommend Lisa!!”


“Sarah and Andrew are awesome. They loved on my pup so much and they were very easy to coordinate with! I could tell from the pics that Crosby had a great time and felt like a true member of the family.”

“Valeria was a really great sitter for my dog! She was very fast and responsive and followed all directions for my dog who is older and needs special care. She sent lots of pictures and updates through the stay. Will definitely book with her again!”


“Gracie had huge fun with Joann and her other dog friends. Joann sends you pictures and videos and bathes her before return. She follows any special instructions like night kennel etc. I would highly recommend Joann for boarding services.”


“Maiko made us feel so comfortable! She sent so many great pictures and was super communicative with our high energy pup. Can’t wait to use her again for our next rover need :)”


“Joey had the most wonderful stay with Debra! She was so kind and sweet, and understood Joey’s needs as a senior citizen pup. As he’s an old pup his legs are a bit weak; Debra went the extra mile to set up a carpet path and extra bedding to make sure he was comfortable and could walk around. She sent consistent updates and lots of photos. Truly made Joey feel welcome and was the best experience we could have ever had!”
