About: Dog-Loving Care from a Mom Who Gets It! Hi, I’m a stay-at-home mom with over 30 years of experience caring for my furry friends—and I absolutely adore dogs! My own pup, Murphy, a lively 5-year-old Pudelpointer, thrives on companionship and exercise, and your dog will too. I treat every dog like family, creating a safe, low-stress environment where wellness comes first. Whether you're at work or away, you can relax knowing your pet is in loving hands. Sample Daily Schedule 7:00 AM – Morning Snuggles & Potty Break Gentle wake-up, outdoor time, and a calm start to the day. 8:00 AM – Breakfast & Wellness Check Nutritious meal, hydration, and a quick health check (energy, mood, appetite). 9:00 AM – First Walk of the Day A brisk walk tailored to your dog’s pace and preferences—Murphy loves company! 11:00 AM – Play Date or Enrichment Time Interactive play, puzzle toys, or a visit with other friendly pups (if approved). 1:00 PM – Midday Rest & Cuddle Time Quiet time to recharge in a cozy, safe space. 3:00 PM – Second Walk or Backyard Romp More movement to keep tails wagging and minds stimulated. 5:00 PM – Dinner & Digestive Wind-Down Balanced meal followed by calm activities to settle in. 7:00 PM – Final Potty Break & Evening Snuggles End the day with love, comfort, and a final outdoor trip. I prioritize your dog’s schedule just like I do for my own—because here, pets are family. Let me know if you'd like this formatted for a flyer, website, or social media post! As a lifelong dog lover and stay-at-home mom, I provide personalized, stress-free care in a clean, loving home. With a large fenced yard and indoor comfort, your pet will enjoy walks, playdates, and return home just as clean and happy as when they arrived—because here, dogs are family.
“Isaac has been wonderful with our pup. His leash walking has improved, he’s well cared for with regular walks and feeding, and he’s always happy when he goes and comes back. We also really appreciate how flexible and accommodating Isaac is with our changing schedules. Highly recommend!”
“Steve is fantastic! He is very attentive and catered to all my dogs needs. He provided adequate exercise, attention and love for my pup with his doggy daycare services while I was at work. I highly suggest Steve for all your rover needs!”
“Amy and Shelby are the best! They accommodate last minute requests when events take longer than anticipated, and when we just need an extra day here or there. Our dogs are always excited when they realize they are going down the road to Amy’s house and they always come home happy and tired. They have taken care of both of our dogs since they were both puppies and have helped us with training and potty training as well. Our dogs are very obedient and well mannered in large part to Amy and her family. They are well socialized and great with kids also I am sure thanks to them. Having a busy work and life schedule makes owning 2 dogs tough but they help us make it possible! I know my pups are in good hands when they are with Amy and Shelby.”
About: I am a stay-at-home-mom, and I absolutely adore dogs. I have grown up around dogs until ultimately I got my children their very own puppy four years ago. Before I got my Golden Doodle/Lab mix, I practiced quite a lot by dog-sitting for neighbors and family. I have housed both large and small dogs, and have experience with puppies all the way up to older pups. I am home doing only part-time work, so I have a lot of time to play with the dogs in my large, fenced yard, and there are several parks nearby (Bridle Trails, Taylor, South Rose Hill and Snyder dog park) where I can walk them and make sure they get plenty of exercise. Dogs are doted on, cuddled, and played with a lot, in my household. I love taking the time to get to know each dog I take care of, and I will work diligently to meet each individual dog's needs and personalities. I am a very active person all year round, so being outdoors with dogs is one of my favorite things. The dogs I care for will be well-attended to, and you can be sure they will have a blast in the large yard, and enjoy plenty of outside time. My children are 9 and 13, and will also heap love on the dogs in the home. The kids will never be left unattended with any dogs, but they are great helpers and assistants. Our dog, Dublin is four years old, and loves all dogs and people. He has a wonderful temperament and has spent quite a bit of time being socialized, and also being boarded in a home with several other dogs. I spent two years training him when he was a puppy and he is just a joy to be around–sweet, playful, well-behaved, and flexible. I can accommodate any dog-sleeping preferences. I have a large crate, as long as the dog is crate trained. I also have a dog ledge near the sofa where dogs can lounge, sleep or play with toys, as well as different size dog beds that are cleaned regularly. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and on beds in my home.
About: I may not have professional experience caring for animals, but I’ve always felt a deep connection with them. Whenever I’m around dogs, I feel an instant bond—like we’ve known each other for years. Animals seem to naturally gravitate toward me, and I think they can sense how much I care. I’m patient, gentle, and always eager to learn more about how to give pets the best care. Whether it’s going for a walk, playing with their favorite toy, or just keeping them company, I’m fully present and engaged. I treat every pet like they’re my own—with kindness, love, and respect. Even though I’m new to pet sitting, I bring a lot of heart, reliability, and excitement to every opportunity. I’m confident that with time and trust, both pets and their owners will feel comfortable and happy with me I’m currently on summer break and i have nothing to do or planned until august so i hope i make a bit of money until that time so i could be set for the future and my school year I have a Nice big and fenced community park right next to my home, your babies will have the time of their lives in my humble abode, it’s small but it’s full of love and warmth!
“Our puppy Stella had a wonderful day with Conner, Erica and lil Teddy and I especially appreciated the updates and great communication throughout the day. Glad we found an amazing sitter close to our home and will be using them again for sure. Loved that Stella got to go around and walk at different parks too. She had a blast and was pleasantly tired when we got home . Highly recommend Conner and Erica 👍”
“Feilu is an incredibly patient and caring dog sitter. She paid close attention to my dog Olu’s needs and took wonderful care of him. It’s clear that she truly loves dogs, and I felt very comfortable trusting her with Olu. Highly recommend!”
“I am so thankful for Mia’s love and care of Finn. His day was full of playtime and trips outdoors for plenty of sniffs and exercise. And of course lots of pets and belly rubs.”
“Emmanuel and Sonia were so welcoming to Coco. We are lucky to have found them. Coco enjoyed his daycare very much. Highly recommend Sonia and Emmanuel.”
“Steve has watched my dog for half of this year, and he has been incredible. From attentiveness to his needs, to socializing him with other dogs, to detailed feedback in an effort to help my little guy live a happier doggy life, there's no better person to have for a dog-sitter.”
“Lucy took great care of my little guy - sent great photos and seemed to love him just as much as I do. Can't beat their private sunbathing patio, either!”
About: I have been taking care of dogs for the last 9 years and have 2 dogs of my own who I have raised since they were 8 weeks old. They are currently 8 years old and 11 months old giving experience with all ages and extreme patience after months of raising our puppy. I work from home and my dogs get a great level of attention as a result of this. I am always available and able to provide frequent walks and stimulation. For local clients I can be available in a pinch due to my flexible work schedule. I have two dogs and can take dogs who do well with other dogs. Assuming they all get along they would get the same treatment as my own dogs. Plenty of walks, at least one long walk a day, lots of play time, and a consistent schedule. House sitting will include regular visits along with extended time spent with your pet during the work day as well. I do overnight stays if requested as well and I am always available for walking appointments with my flexible schedule.
“Tunyi responded quickly to a last minute doggy daycare request and was very communicative of how my dog was doing throughout his stay. I'm definitely booking with Tunyi again in the future!”
“Hire Jc & Anh to take care of your dog, you'll be happy you did! They are attentive, caring, active people. This means your dog comes home happy and tired! Jc & Anh took great care of my Boston Terrier, Reuben. Reuben is a very high-energy dog who is most happy with lots of activity. He also typically plays very actively with other dogs that he is around. As a result, I try to be careful to find a sufficiently good match both in who is watching him and the dogs he'll be with. Honestly, I was a little concerned at first. Reuben tends to do better with larger, more playful dogs. They had two little Bichon Frise's. I figured it wasn't going to go well, but I would try. During our Meet & Greet, there was a little bit of friction between the Reuben and the other dogs. But, Jc & Anh took it in stride, managing the dogs so that they would be safe. After a while of us both working with them a bit, we decided to give it a shot. I think the key was that Jc & Any took all of the dogs out for a very long walk (~1.5 hours!). That let the dogs get to know each other and it tired them out. I got pictures throughout the day and Reuben was doing great. When I picked Reuben up, he was very happy and well mannered. I love it when my Reuben is tired at the end of a day! I will absolutely ask them to take care of Reuben again in the future!”
Highlands dog parents share their Rover experiences
Chen and Chen's family are so friendly and amazing! Her dog Rocky is also very friendly and cute, Coco had a wonderful day! Chen really cared about Coco like her own dog, took her for walks and sent me photos and videos frequently. Coco still has a lot to learn, and Chen was willing to help me out so Coco could get used to the environment. I feel completely at ease leaving Coco in her care, so I'd like to continue relying on her services going forward!
Isaac has been wonderful with our pup. His leash walking has improved, he’s well cared for with regular walks and feeding, and he’s always happy when he goes and comes back. We also really appreciate how flexible and accommodating Isaac is with our changing schedules. Highly recommend!
Ming was an amazing dog sitter! She is extremely responsible and provided frequent updates throughout the day, which made me feel very comfortable and reassured. I could always know how Cookie and Olu were doing. It’s clear that she truly cares about the dogs she looks after. I would absolutely recommend her and would be happy to book with her again!
They are amazing. Kai had a very good time and one could tell because he was grinning ear to ear when I went to pick him up. He also got a lot of exercise and they have a very good set up where any dog would be lucky to spend time with them. Serena and her husband are some of the most wonderful people I have come across while using this site. I strongly recommend using their services and I for one sure do look forward for the next time I will need their help with Kai.
Ronak watched our 90lb Swiss shepherd during the day and we could tell our pup loved him and had a great time. Ronak is calm, communicative and seems comfortable with large breed working dogs, which was really important to us! We would definitely recommend!
Our two dogs were tended to and well cared for at her daycare. She took them out several times even in the drizzly weather to give them lots of exercise and potty breaks, and she even noticed how much they like to drink water so they had lots of refills! Would recommend.
Courtney has cared for Gus in the past and we trust he’s in good hands. A daycare visit to introduce our newer pup Slinky was the best idea. Courtney took her time with Slinky to be sure he grew more comfortable and I’m so impressed and appreciative! We know both boys will have a great time on longer stays 💙
