“Our Franklin has enjoyed his time at Carissa’s. She sends me daily updates with photos of him. I feel very comfortable leaving him with her and have no worries boarding him when we are out of town”
“We are so thankful to have found Meranda as a sitter. This is the second time she watched our two girls. We boarded them with Meranda for 5 days which allowed us to fly to Idaho to see my son graduate. She was quick to respond to my questions and sent me lots of photos. We highly recommend her!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Sarah accommodated our last-minute request to watch our 3-month-old puppy for two days. Rip and Mayla were so friendly and playful when we stopped by for a meet and greet. And Sarah's obvious expertise and calm demeanor made it clear that this was a good fit for us. She was always quick with responses, sent daily updates with several pictures spanning the course of the day, and gave a very thorough rundown of how our puppy did his entire time there when we arrived to pick him up. It was clear that she had his best interests at heart. And any time we need a puppy sitter, she will be the first person we contact. 10/10 Highly recommend.”
“Brandi was wonderful from drop off to pick up. Lots of updates on our pup while we were gone on a week vacation. He is still a puppy and lots of energy so we were glad he could be with someone in their home while we were away. Definitely would recommend.”
“Stacy welcomed my dog into her house and treated him as her own. Rudy loved playing and snuggling with her family! She communicated well and made sure she understood his needs. I will use Stacy again.”
“Chanse and her family were amazing taking care of our fur baby! We got nightly updates with pictures and know lucky had a blast hanging out with them! They were so kind, welcoming and flexible to work with. 100000% recommend and will for sure be reaching out to her first if we need a doggy sitter again!!!”
“5 stars!! ⭐️ 🌟 🌟 💫 ⭐️ Jessica is amazing! She graciously dealt with our uncertain and hetic schedules. She went over and above, driving to my home to pick my dog up. Even when he was initially bashful/scared, she waited and took extra time. Gave him extra love and care, car rides, treats, and nap time together. I felt he was safe, content, and at ease while in Jessica’s home. We will definitely be hiring her again!!”
“Brittany was very sweet and easy going. She took excellent care of our dog and sent picture updates while we were gone. We will definitely contact her in the future when we need pet sitting again!”
About: I’ve cared for pets my whole life. I’ve cared for animals ranging from mice to horses. I have worked in vet clinics and have done a lot of research on my own time. They are my passion. I currently have the most experience in dogs. I’m actively an apprentice with a local dog trainer to be a positive reinforcement force free trainer. I am also studying canine behavior. I have experience in doggy daycare, boarding, and grooming. I have administered medications ranging from oral medicine to injections (subq and intermuscular). Like I said before, I love em like my own! I am home all day most days. I do have two dogs of my own so they are always outside playing. Pet care is what I do when I wake up to when I go to bed. I’m available most days for play dates, walks, boarding, grooming, and more! I have a large fenced in yard. I also have so so many dog toys. I have two dogs as well so your baby can make friends! I can offer crates when we leave or at night if you prefer! I have plenty of house for them to be in as well, also plenty of people to love on them! Your baby will never be alone!
“Gracie just had her first stay with Emily and it went great. As an older, smaller dog I worry about how she might fit in with a new family. Emily made sure she got lots of attention and fit right in. Emily sent lots of pics which helped ease my anxiety about leaving Gracie. Gracie did great with Emily!”
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with a cozy home and a big backyard! My husband and I are dog parents to two sweethearts that would be thrilled to host a sleepover. Whether your dog needs lots of activity or a calm, structured environment, we can provide the care and attention they deserve. When caring for your pet, I promise to treat them as my own and provide plenty of updates with pictures. Your pet's well-being is our priority. I currently work full time but have some flexibility throughout the week and fairly open availability on the weekends. With my current schedule, I am mostly available during early mornings and evenings. While staying at our home, your pets will be treated as family. We have two friendly, larger dogs who love having a guest over, and I always make sure introductions are slow and supervised. Our time at home is very calm and relaxed so your dog will have a low stress environment where they feel welcome. When it comes to walks, I’m happy to match your dog’s pace—whether they enjoy a slow stroll with plenty of sniff breaks or a more structured, fast-paced walk to burn off energy.
“Glenda, Nathan, and Alex took amazing care of our dog! They provided me updates so I knew our dog was comfortable and adjusting well while we were on vacation. Thanks so very much for treating Charley like she was part of your family. We felt she was loved and plan to book again when needed!”
“Just… WOW! Words cannot describe how pleased we are to have finally found such amazing people like Perrin and Carrie to watch after our dogs while we were away. For years we’ve tried every type of boarding center and other dog sitters on Rover, but the Sanderson Ranch truly takes the cake. Not only is their property a true dog haven but you can trust them to keep your pets safe, exercised, and entertained for days on end. We received lots of updates, honest feedback, and a full report card upon our return so you know they take their dog-sitting duties seriously. If you’re looking for someone who will open their hearts to your pets and care for them as much as you do, look no further.”
About: I grew up with up dogs. I currently have a 5 year beagle who loves meeting new friends. Over the years, I have dog sat for many friends and family members. I had two adopted beagles grow old with me, so I have experience with medications and individualized care and feeding programs. You dog will be welcomed and well-cared for here. I currently work as a teacher and live two blocks from my school. I am able to stop home at my lunch break to take dogs out. My beagle and I get out for a short walk and the morning and a longer walk in the afternoon. I am a dog lover. I am reliable and your dog will be treated like family. I will work with you to make sure that all of your dog's needs are met.
“One of the best providers on Rover! Amy is reliable, professional, and we can tell she truly enjoys caring for pets. If our pup could talk we are positive he would be asking us when he can go for another visit!”

“We loved leaving Lucy with Alyssa and Brandon - They are kind, welcoming and Lucy was comfortable with them immediately. They provided a great atmosphere for her, we had no hesitations about leaving her, and Alyssa sent us lots of photos and updates. It looked like Lucy had a lot of fun with them, and we will definitely have them care for her in the future!”
“Tessa did an amazing job watching Rena. She gave the best pup-dates complete with pictures and videos so we had peace of mind knowing our gal was doing ok! Tessa took extra care understanding Rena had some anxiety and gave her love, attention, and - most importantly - lots of walks and outdoor time. We can’t thank Tessa enough!”
“Ryan and his family took such good care of my dog, Snoop! And he loved playing with their dogs and going to the dog park! They also took videos and pictures and kept me updated”
