“Dana (Aunt Dana) is just amazing. Her love for pups is apparent. Her deliberate approach to ensuring a positive experience for both Judge and me was incredibly refreshing. Her attention to detail, level of communication, and genuine caring for Judge built immediate trust. Highly recommend”

About: What sets us apart is that we are a work-from-home couple, so dogs are never left alone and receive constant supervision and attention! We have a fully fenced backyard for safe playtime and live in a great neighborhood for daily walks. We’re experienced with puppies who need frequent potty breaks and structure, as well as adult dogs who enjoy a calm, consistent routine. Our friendly Cavapoo, Sperry, loves other dogs and helps create a welcoming environment that truly feels like home. Because we both work from home, pet care naturally fits into our daily routine. Dogs are supervised all day and receive regular potty breaks, backyard playtime, walks in our neighborhood, meals on their usual schedule, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Evenings and weekends are calm and homey, with lots of cuddles and playtime. We provide a safe, calm, and loving home environment where dogs are treated like part of the family. Our home is dog-friendly, clean, and secure, with a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play. Because we work from home, dogs are always supervised and are never left alone for extended periods. We carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any house rules provided by owners.
“Gabby is kind, patient and fun with Holly. She provides lots of pictures, plenty of love and a whole lot of care. Highly recommend her! (And Benji is super sweet too!)”
“Haley took excellent care of our pup. He is a very large puppy and she was more than ready to handle him. He came home happy and that is more than I could ask for. Especially after a 9 day sit!! I cannot thank Haley and her family enough for taking care of Muldoon and know her have a great care taker for the future.”
“Jeannette was awesome! She kept me informed of how Autumn was doing during my trip. She also helped establish new helpful habits. I will definitely use Jeannette again in the very near future.”
“Kayla B. and her family did a wonderful job with our puggle girls. The girls stayed with them for a week. They administered medicine daily to our epileptic dog. The pictures they took were awesome and they messaged us daily to give us updates about our little ones. Our puppies came home happy and tired in the best way! We hope to have our girls stay with Kayla B. and her family again!!! 😊🫶🏻”
“We were looking for somebody who is home during the day and has a lot of experience with dogs (especially larger breeds), and Judy is exactly that. In addition, her two dogs are very laid back and well behaved. We will definitely have our dog stay with Judy again.”
“From the moment I booked with this sitter and had our initial video chat, I instantly felt good vibes and positive energy. She has a dog of her own, and it was clear that Chloe got along with her wonderfully. Throughout the stay, the sitter kept me updated with photos and messages, which I truly appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing Chloe was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Alejandra is wonderful. We've had our large, high-maintenance dog stay with her multiple times now, and she has been so great with him. She sends lots of photos and videos. Thank you for taking such good care of Argo!”
“Deborah was absolutely wonderful! Immediately from the meet & greet I knew Cora was in great hands. She was extremely responsive and then had such a warm energy the minute we met her. Deborah had everything we needed for the stay including a crate, toys and a dog bed! Cora had a great time in her yard. Deb also did a wonderful job with some thunderstorm anxiety and making sure Cora was as comfortable as possible. I will absolutely look to book with her again! Thanks so much for all the love and care you gave Cora!!”
“Emme received excellent care with Anne; I enjoyed meeting her, and felt she was prepared and organized to take care of Emme. Her huge fenced yard is a plus. I look forward to Emme having another visit soon.”
“My experience with Dominique and Peter was wonderful! This was my first time using rover so I was very nervous! But they reassured us that our dog was in great hands with photo updates everyday while we went on vacation overseas My dog got along with their dog great and they had a lovely time playing in the big backyard!”
“Christal was quick to respond and very communicative while my pup was with her family! Lots of love and cuddles were given and my pup came home tired and happy! I hope we can board with Christal again!”

“Cynthia went above and beyond my expectation of a boarder. She sent pictures of my dog enjoying himself with her family members. My dog is extremely nervous and I saw her bring out a calmness I’ve never seen before with anyone. She is 10 in my book❤️”
“I can’t recommend Judd enough! They took such wonderful care of my cat while I was away, providing updates, photos, and lots of love. It was clear from the start that they truly care about animals, and my cat warmed up to them instantly. Knowing my pet was in such great hands gave me total peace of mind.”
“Stephanie was great! She was very accommodating to the quick request for Sailor to stay. Sailor had a great time playing with her dog Nico and is going to sleep hard after the stay. Stephanie also sent several updates on how he was doing with photos included.”
Idlewild South dog parents share their Rover experiences
He was amazing! He took great care of both of my fur babies and followed ALL my instructions! I also got daily videos and updates which I can honestly say is a BIG thing for me🫶🏾. I always wanna know what my babies are doing (guiltyyy😭)! He also takes the time to go out his way to make your babies feel at home. He gave them beds, food, and bathsss! I mean honestly..he’s my regular sitter now!
Flo and Kyle were absolutely wonderful caretakers of our 2 dogs. They are true dog lovers and treated my dogs like their own. They clearly took the time to get to know them and gave them plenty of attention and love. Easy communication and great pics! 10 out of 10 will be contacting them again for future dog sitting needs. Highly recommended!
Brett was an excellent dog sitter, and we’re so glad we found him on Rover. He was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared a lot about our dog. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Brett again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter.
I had peace of mind leaving my pup with Stephanie. She was communicative and more than willing to give my dog the extra attention and care he needed. Great environment for dogs to run around and play with the fenced in yard and her owning a sweet pup as well. Had an overall great experience!
Judith took wonderful care of Leo and kept us completely at ease while we were away. She sent periodic updates, which helped us feel connected, and it was clear from the photos and messages that Leo was happy and relaxed in her care. We are very grateful for how attentive and kind she was with him and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet sitter.
We had a great experience with Sarah, she and her pup were fantastic! She treated my pup with such care and went above and beyond during his sitting. Treated with care and so thoughtful. Regular updates and photos! My pup was very well cared for. Reliable, kind and trustworthy!
Gonzalo and his family are the best! This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous about how my dog would do living in someone else’s house for a week. All of that worry went away as soon as I dropped him off. Gonzalo sent updates and pictures throughout each day. In each one, my dog was smiling from ear to ear. He also groomed my dog so he came home shedding less and smelling great. It was a wonderful experience all around. Definitely recommend Gonzalo!
We were extremely happy with Jonathan as our dog sitter! He took excellent care of our dog Pablo and clearly treated him with a lot of attention and care. Jonathan made sure he got plenty of outings and exercise, and we could tell he was happy and well looked after. His communication was outstanding. Responses were always quick, and he kept us updated, which gave us great peace of mind. It’s clear that Jonathan genuinely cares about the dogs he watches, and we would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him!
