“Kerri had excellent communication and updates. She took wonderful care of our dog and he had a great time. We would definitely recommend Kerri and will bring our dog back to her.”

“This would be like our 3rd time using Rahied! He was absolutely great as usual! He went above and beyond for Cobra! I think Cobra misses him and especially his son already! 😆😁”


“Alex and Georgi were great sitters for Simba. Throughout the week, they shared videos and/or text me on how Simba was doing, which was nice because I was able to share with my family. More importantly, they spoiled Simba and he came home - a bit heavier and happy! He can't wait to come again...”

“Willow enjoyed her time with Dave and seemed very happy there. She got the opportunity to spend time with other dogs while she was there for 12 days! Thanks for taking care of our girl!”

“We were a little nervous using a sitter we didn’t know for the first time, but Kadi put us completely at ease. From the very beginning, she was warm, attentive, and clearly has a genuine love for dogs. Both of our pups instantly took to her, and throughout our time away, she sent regular updates, pictures, and lots of sweet moments that showed just how happy and comfortable they were. It truly felt like they were on their own little vacation! When we picked them up, they were giving her kisses goodbye, which says everything. We couldn’t be happier with the care and attention Kadi gave our dogs, and we will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

“We’ve left our shepherd with Chris and Cassandra a handful of times this summer and every single time has been stellar. Very knowledgeable and keeps us very updated with our shepherd’s wellbeing. Having dogs of their own is also great since it gives our boy a chance to socialize and feel part of a pack. Can’t say enough good things about these two!”

“Steven is great with Prince. Always welcoming and hospitable even when last minute care is needed. Definitely recommend as we’ll continue utilizing his service for our boarding needs.”

“Amanda and her husband are absolutely amazing!! Words can’t describe how grateful I am to have found them for a long 10 day trip. It was the longest I’ve ever been away from Bella and Amanda made sure to send me pictures DAILY!! Sometimes twice a day :) and that meant the world to me. No other Rover sitter has done that. It gave me so much relief to see how comfortable Bella was with them and to see what she was doing while I was away. I loved hearing about their time together when I picked her up. Bella loved Amanda so much she def was attached to her. I can tell Amanda and her husband really loved on Bella - frequent walks, play time outside, puzzle, lick mats etc. Thank you so very much!”

“Robin took such great care of Lettie. She was responsive, asked great questions, sent lots of pictures (which was awesome cuz I was really missing my dog!). I look forwarding to having Lettie stay with her again.”

“I’ve used Sheila and Keith several times now, and every experience has been fantastic. They’re reliable, caring, and always go the extra mile to make sure Little Bear feels loved and comfortable. I always get great updates and photos, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. Little Besr is always happy and relaxed when I return, which says it all. I highly recommend Sheila and Keith to anyone looking for trustworthy and attentive sitters!”

“Madeline and Joe were there for me in a sudden pinch to care for my Frenchton for almost 2 weeks. They sent regular videos, pictures, and updates to keep me in the loop as to how he was and help me feel comfortable. I chose them originally as they asked me just as many questions as I had for them, which shows they know proper care (they also have their own dog, too), and want to make sure that there is mutual trust. I will most certainly be using them in the future!”

“Anna was great with Otto! We did a meet and greet at a nearby park the day before and he got along great with her dog Ruby. She sent photos during Otto’s stay and I was comfortable knowing he was under good care and supervision. Thanks Anna and Ruby!”
About: About Me Hi there! My name is Mariah, and I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs my entire life — caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I currently share my home with my sweet pug, Honey, our curious cat Phoebe, and my 7-year-old son — all of whom adore meeting new furry friends! When your pup stays with us, you can rest assured they’ll feel right at home. Think of it as their very own vacation spot — complete with a large, securely gated yard for playtime, plenty of cuddles, and a loving, family-style environment. I know how important it is to stay connected while you’re away, so I provide regular photo and message updates to help you feel close to your pup no matter where you are. Whether your dog loves playtime, snuggles, or just a cozy spot to relax, I’m here to make sure they’re safe, happy, and cared for like one of my own. 🐾💛 Pet care fits so naturally into my daily life! I work from home, so I’m here all day to give plenty of love, attention, and playtime to the pets I care for. Between my own pug, Honey, and cat, Phoebe, there’s always some fun and furry energy in the house. My 7-year-old son and I love spending time outside, so our large, fenced-in yard gets lots of use for play, potty breaks, and sunshine. Whether it’s walks, snuggles, or just hanging out, your pup will always have company and care throughout the day. At home, my pets are part of the family! My pug, Honey, and cat, Phoebe, get lots of love, attention, and playtime throughout the day. Since I work from home, I’m around to keep them on a regular routine with feeding, walks, and plenty of snuggles. They have free roam of the house and love spending time in our large, fenced-in yard for fresh air and playtime. I make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and always feel safe — whether we’re relaxing inside or running around outside.
“I was nervous because this was the first time I'd left Picasso with someone he didn't know. Ekow was extremely kind and sent updates of a happy dog daily, which made me feel much better. We've found a new sitter and I will definitely be reaching out anytime we need a sitter. Five stars!!”

“Jess was very accommodating on a last minute trip I had planned. She was very flexible with my schedule and availability to meet. I was extremely nervous as this was my first time utilizing Rover, as I usually book with PetSmart but I wanted to make sure my senior dog was well taken care of as boarding can be stressful for older dogs. Once we had the meet and greet, my dogs immediately loved Jess. She made sure that their routine stayed as close to the same as at home to ensure their comfort, and sent pictures and updates daily (which I loved). Even when we picked our dogs up, they still wanted to play and love on her so I knew they had a blast. If you’re wary about booking with Jess, this review is for you, she was absolutely awesome.”

“Could not be any happier! We received multiple pictures per day and our dogs seemed to be so happy! Mariana and her husband were wonderful! Dogs got to sleep in the bed with them, roam their backyard, and even got to go on walks! We will definitely use Mariana again! She was AWESOME!!!”
“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”

“Beverly was amazing especially due to the short notice! She kept me in the loop all weekend and I felt reassured my pup was in good hands especially for a first time stay. Super responsive and such a sweet person! Thank you so much again!”

“Rachel did a fantastic job watching our dog. She was able to watch him on less than 24 hours notice and went above and beyond in every area. She was constantly sending multiple updates throughout the day and showed our dog so much love and attention. We are truly grateful for Rachel and will definitely be using her again in the future.”
