“It was amazing to have Amy watch our dog! Drop off and pick up were very easy and convenient, and she was wonderful with our pretty anxious and nervous dog. She took great care of him and really went the extra mile in every way. Thanks, Amy!”
“Kathleen is an amazing caretaker! Our pups practically didn’t want to come home with us! She is attentive and proactive and a great communicator. We received pictures and videos and updates throughout their stay with Kathleen and came home to happy and healthy dogs.”
“Victoria was nice to me and Oreo, my Tuxedo friend She sent me pictures and videos every day. She gave her an entire room to herself Would hire her again”
“Really appreciative of Richard for doing such a great job watching my dog Oscar while I was away. Richard was pleasant, his dogs were very friendly, and his home seemed like a great and safe environment for Oscar. Richard was kind enough to book with me right at the last minute and sent me photos and videos to update me during my trip. Definitely would recommend Richard to anyone looking to board their dog.”
“Our dog loves going to Emily & Patrick's! He started wagging his tail the moment we got there this last time. It makes vacation so relaxing to know he is so happy and well cared for at their place.”
“Nicole watched my dog while I was out of town and did a great job! I got plenty of updates, her home was lovely, and my old dog seemed so happy. 10/10 would book again!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the amazing care our dog Penny received! From the moment we met Valerie, it was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and takes her job seriously. She went above and beyond to make sure Penny was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. Not only did she provide plenty of walks and exercise, but she also incorporated fun enrichment activities that kept Penny's mind stimulated and tail wagging. We loved getting regular updates and photos (even videos!) of all their adventures together. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Penny was in such loving hands, especially since this was the first time Penny stayed with Valerie. She treats every dog like her own, with so much patience, affection, and attention to detail. We came home to a happy pup who clearly had an amazing time. We can’t recommend Valerie highly enough and have already booked her again for two more stays! She is the best!”
“Mike is one of the most genuine dog sitters I’ve ever trusted my dog with. My dog enjoys the outdoors so I’m glad he took her to the park, on walks, and on an adventure hike. I would absolutely recommend him!”
“Rae did a great job with our dog Rosie. She was very conscientious - took extra care to text me with any concerns, took Rosie for walks, and sent nice pictures. The large, fenced-in yard was great for our 90 lb. English lab - lots of room to enjoy. Thanks Rae - we will definitely use your dog-sitting services again!”
About: Ever since getting my first dog 9 years ago, my life has never been the same! I love all kinds of dogs whether they’re lazy or active, huge or tiny, and all the in between. I’ve watched dogs from shitzhus to pitbulls to newfoundlands and can’t wait to watch yours next! I only work 3 days a week as a nurse so I have lots of free time each week where I would love some pet therapy I have a little baby shichon who gets along with all dogs. She sleeps in her crate but gets lots of snuggles in our bed and on the couch too. Our apartment has a dog yard and lots of grass too!
“Breanna was so wonderful watching my pup, Kira, for the weekend! They went on walks, met other dog friends, and got doggy ice cream. She was thorough about asking if Kira had allergies and how she reacted to other dogs beforehand, which was much appreciated! I will absolutely go with Breanna again next time Kira needs to be watched over a weekend!”
“Willa had a wonderful time staying with Megan, her family, and their dog. She always takes a little while to settle in and Megan and her family were patient and kind, letting her approach at her own pace. By the end of her stay, she was romping around, playing, and totally comfortable. Megan communicated clearly and sent us photos to help us miss Willa a little less. We’re very glad to have found Megan’s family to sit for Willa!!”
“I am a first time Rover.com user and was nervous but Mariah took great care of my baby girl Shepherd princess. And she put a cute bandana on her. Princess was happy. Ian very please”
“There was always someone home with Vinnie! Tia gave regular updates with pics and video on how Vinnie was doing! I was never left wondering what was going on.”
“Amy is always responsive and sends pictures when we board our pup with her! I appreciate that she vets dog temperaments prior to allowing them to stay with her. Mango always has the best time playing with other dogs that Amy is also taking care of!”
“Great peace of mind leaving my two dogs with Samantha when a family emergency mandated I leave town suddenly. She was quick to respond and and very flexible with pick-up days/times, which I really appreciated. When I picked my pups up, they were happy and calm from all the playtime they got in Samantha's large, shady backyard. Will definitely book again with Samantha in the future!”

Mary is just great with our dogs. They seem to love being with her. She is efficient, attentive and communicative with all bookings and logistics. She sends photos. She's cooperative with drop offs and pick ups. Our dogs enjoy her dogs. We are so happy to have found her!
Luna had a great stay with Denise! We loved the photo updates and could tell she was happy, safe, and well cared for. Communication was excellent! We brought Luna with us on a trip to Pittsburgh, and we were so happy Denise’s flexibility allowed us to pick Luna up and see her for a few hours. We’d happily book again — highly recommended!
Amber took such fantastic care of our 7mo old puppy, Nellie! It was our first time leaving her, and it was a longer trip (12 days). Amber sent lots of photos and updates the whole time. She got absolutely spoiled by Amber and her girls, and looks like she really enjoyed herself! Absolutely would recommend booking with Amber!
This was our second stay with Natalia and it was another great experience! Daily communication and a picture or two. Jasper loves her Golden Retriever, Toby, and has made a new best friend. I have 100% confidence in the care Natalia and her husband provide to my pup! I might need to plan another vacation just so Jasper can go stay at Natalia’s house!!
Our dog's stay with Anahita was smooth and trouble-free. Anahita was clearly a responsible and caring person, plus she had great backup from her roommate who apparently fell in love with our little dog! No wonder, she is cute. This was a first time stay and everything went great, our dog settled in and seemed very happy from the reports...and tired now that she's home, a sign of a good visit with lots of activity. No problem at all recommending Anahita (and her room mate), and would definitely book a repeat stay in the future.
Rae was absolutely wonderful to work with! She responded quickly, provided great updates, was super flexible with both pickup and drop-off, and truly went above and beyond to help us out. I had originally reached out to Rae but ended up booking another sitter who lived a bit closer. When that sitter canceled just two days before our trip, I immediately contacted Rae again. Within minutes she responded, happy to take care of Poe. She even rearranged her plans with friends to make our pickup time easier. Rae was truly our saving grace, and we can’t recommend her highly enough. Thank you so much, Rae!
Breanna was absolutely lovely! Zinnia had gotten sick on the way to their home and Breanna was still okay with watching over her! She kept me updated the entire time I was gone, sent lots of pictures, and followed my instructions to a tee (including the extra ones I added last minute to help Zinnia feel better)! Zinnia got used to her very quick and had a wonderful time playing, lounging, and going for walks together!
