“Our dogs clearly had a great time with Ron, Cooper, and another doggie guest. Ron made the entire process effortless by responding quickly and courteously to every email. He was flexible with our schedule and our pups were warmly welcomed. When we returned, they were excited to see us, but were relaxed, calm, and happy. We were in town for a family funeral, a stressful and exhausting event. Ron's professional and caring attention to our goofy pups truly made the day far less worrisome. We definitely hope to book with him again.”

About: I have been around animals my entire life and cared for my own dogs for nearly 20 years. I often dog sit/house sit for friends and neighbors. I have two female pugs and a male terrier mix who are part of our family. While I do have kids and they may join in on a walk, I would always be the one in charge of the leash and walking your dog. We have a large fenced in yard for plenty of play time if you board or schedule doggie daycare with us. I also have experience caring for small animals like cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, lizards, chickens, and hamsters. I can board animals in cages/enclosures in an area where other animals do not have access or provide drop in visits in your home. With specific instructions, I could accommodate most types of animals. I work part time on the weekends and my husband works full time during the week, part of which is work from home. Our home is rarely without someone here. I do have two school aged children who are gentle if a dog is staying with us and also gives me an opportunity for dog walking at your location. I will provide cute pictures from drop in visits, walks, and boarding. If your dog stays overnight with us, we would require crating only during the night. Otherwise our dogs are out and about in the main part of the house and go out into our fenced backyard often. They also enjoy frequent walks in our quiet neighborhood if desired.
“Amazing. Sylveena is wonderful. She fit me in last minute and my Snick loved being there. She sent plenty of photos and most of all my baby slept like a baby when I picked her up. Sylveena is great and I will definitely book with her again.”
“Our dog Rubi loved Elaine! I messaged Elaine the day before we needed care for our dog and she was so prompt to respond and ready to help us. She took great care of Rubi and sent us a picture and updates. Her backyard is perfect for dogs to run and play in and her house is calming and quiet. We will deffinetly think of Elaine again if we need care for our dog.”
“Stephanie is absolutely wonderful!! She and her sweet family went above and beyond to accommodate our very playful puppy and was sending updates frequently which I really appreciated. Our doggy is a very happy and tired boy after a full day of fun with them! Would absolutely recommend her for any dog owner looking for a sitter to look after them as if they were her own!”
“Derrika was great with our pup! She was very professional and I had a high degree of confidence that our little guy was well cared for and loved while we were away. I loved feeling like it brought her joy to be with him too and not just a transaction. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Great first day of hanging out at Savannah’s house. They have such a nice fenced in backyard. Can’t wait until the boys get introduced to the other dogs and get to play. Will be booking again, thank you!”
“Cecily is such a great dog sitter. She made sure he had plenty of excise(probably more than he has at home with me) and has such a great personality. My dog, Haru, gets excited in the mornings when he realizes where his at(he recognizes her area/neighborhood now) and jumps out of the car on his own before I am even finish grabbing his stuff for the day. Highly recommend Cecily if your looking for someone to dog sit your doggie with so much love and care. ”
“So grateful for Morgan’s help today - she even trimmed the dogs’ nails for me. Glad she was able to take both my dogs for daycare and she sent videos and pics throughout the day, which was so much appreciated. Morgan is super friendly and great at what she does. Looking forward to next time!”
About: I have a 1 year old Goldendoodle, Lux, who is not only my daughter but literally my best friend. Exercising is a big part of our daily routine. We live by a dog park and we go daily, if the weather permits. While inside our home, we play fetch and cuddle a lot. I work early mornings, however, I have an awesome dog walker who I can get home for potty breaks. I would love to meet you and take care of your dog while you are away. Even take your dog to the dog park if they are up to it. Lux has never met a dog/stranger in her life, she LOVES everyone, and will make sure your dog goes home happy and tired. I offer dog food, snack, Kong’s and lots of love.

Hillcrest dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ashley was an excellent stand-in parent for our Toby. She stepped in without much lead time to meet Toby at our home and get to know him, and then was kind enough to let him come to her home when we needed him out of our house for the day. Toby had a great time with her and will definitely want to see her again!
Morgan was great! Spaghetti and Meatball had a blast! There were a few friends for them to make while they stayed for daycare! They both slept the whole car ride home! Haha! She sent pictures, responded quickly and didn’t make me feel bad about being a helicopter mom! She even got their harnesses and coats on, so they were ready when I got there! They will be seeing her and their friends again in a couple weeks!
Derrika was great with our pup! She was very professional and I had a high degree of confidence that our little guy was well cared for and loved while we were away. I loved feeling like it brought her joy to be with him too and not just a transaction. We’ll definitely be back!
