“We had a wonderful experience with Yvette. She took excellent care of our dog for an entire week and gave us great peace of mind with regular updates and photos. It was clear our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter”
“They are so attentive to the dogs needs. This was our first time leaving our younger dog and we were worried she wouldn’t do well. She respected the dogs boundaries, followed their queues and they quickly became family to them. Received so many pictures and videos to put our minds at ease. Could not recommend them anymore!!”
About: I’ve been the primary caretaker for my dog for the past 7 years, handling everything from daily walks and feedings to baths and medication. I walk him at least four times a day and try to get in a longer mile-ish walk a few times a week so he can explore at his own pace. I’ve also cared for several friends’ dogs for multi-day stays ranging from a couple of days to over a week. Between that and growing up around pets, I’m very comfortable reading a dog’s personality and routine. My wife has lived with dogs her whole life as well, so our home is very dog friendly. Dogs are welcome on the couch and our own dog sleeps in bed with us. I’ve also done a fair bit of basic training with him. I taught him “wait” (stay), helped him get comfortable with paw cleaning after walks, and even set up a little “dog nest” on the bed that he now uses as his sleeping spot. I’m attentive to routines, meds, and the little details that make pets feel comfortable. I work from home, so pet care fits very naturally into my day. I’m around most of the time and able to give dogs attention, bathroom breaks, and supervision throughout the day. Our normal routine is a morning outing, one in the afternoon, another around 5–6pm, and a final one around 9pm before bed. If a dog needs to go out sooner or starts pawing at the door, I’m always happy to take them out. I try to fit in longer walks when the weather and work schedule allow, usually in the evenings. Because I’m home during the day, pets aren’t left alone for long stretches and get plenty of interaction. I work from home and have a wrap-around fenced yard, so dogs have plenty of safe space to wander and get fresh air. I keep a close eye on them when they’re outside and follow their normal routines as closely as possible. Inside, dogs are welcome to relax and make themselves comfortable. Our home is very dog friendly, and we’re used to having pets around. If a dog needs to be crated for sleeping or while we step out briefly, we do have a crate available. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications, and any specific instructions from owners. I’m also happy to send photos or videos throughout the stay so you can see how your pet is doing.
“Our fur baby had an adventurous stay with McKenley with her pug cause they went on a hike and walks not all sitters do that. We are greatful that we chose her to watch after our fur baby. Thank you!”
“Jen and Richard are the absolute BEST!!! Our goldendoodle Rosie had a blast while she stayed with them. They went above and beyond with sending us updates on Rosie, taking her to play at the beach (her favorite place in the world) and taking great care of our girl. They were also extremely well organized and totally prepared for pick up and drop off. The best part of all was the AMAZING photoshoot they had with Rosie. We will treasure the photos and plan to have some framed. Our dog loved them and came home so happy. You will not find better dog sitters out there.”
“Mahalo Kyrie and ‘Ohana for taking good care of our Stella girl! We really appreciated all the updates and taking her earlier than scheduled. You made this process so easy!”
“Angie and her family took care of my dog very good! My dog was very happy to play with them and comfortable to stay their house. Angie’s response was very quick and she welcomed us in front of their house at the drop off so we don’t need to wondering around the street. We look forward to seeing her and her family again for the next opportunity.”
“Kaia absolutely loves Jessica's house especially her favorite play mates! They have a great yard for the dogs to play and were super attentive to all of our dogs needs. They gave her all the love and attention we would give her if we were there. Jessica was also great about sending pictures and updates to keep us in the loop and ease our minds. We can't thank her enough for taking such good care of our pup and Kaia can't wait to go back to play!”
“Alyssa was great and provided frequent updates and pictures. We were gone for Christmas and they even gave her a Christmas present ❤️ she loved playing with Romeo and when we picked her up she was tired which is always a good thing!”
“Tara was awesome! We received pictures and updates through the duration of our trip. We were initially worried about how our dog would react but Tara was nice enough to meet with us before hand and answer any questions or concerns we had. She had so much patience with our girl that we didn’t have to worry. Thank you Tara for taking care of our Baby Girl Ella!”
“Rebecca was amazing. We were so lucky that she was available and able to take our pup last minute in an emergency. I could tell our pup also loves it there with all the attention he gets. Not only did he get great care there he got some important experience with children there as well. We are forever indebted and cannot thank you enough!!”
“Tracey was great. Easy to deal with and she sent many pictures of Bodhi over the 3 days she was there. Pick up and drop off were seamless and the location was easy to find. Tracey has a great place for the dogs to play outside as well. I will definitely use her again.”
“Senne was an amazing sitter for my dog Woody. She sent me pictures and updates on how Woody was doing while I was away which I loved to see and hear about 💗💗”
“Will be booking again!! Melissa took such great care of my pup, she sent multiple pictures each day of their adventures and I could tell my pup was having the best time and being very well cared for. I sent over a long care guide and she confirmed and clarified everything on it so I had a peace of mind that my pup was in good hands. It can be tough putting your pet in the care of others but I highly recommend Melissa to ensure your pet is loved and cared for!”
“Rose was great! We boarded Luna with her for a week and we got daily updates including pictures and videos. Luna was treated like a family member and got daily walks and lots of snuggles. Rose was super responsive and helped us be at ease with her stay.”
About: I’m a calm, patient, and loving dog sitter who truly understands that every dog has a unique personality. As a dog owner myself, I have hands-on experience caring for a small, sensitive, and nervous dog, which has taught me how important gentle handling, consistency, and a calm environment are. I’m especially attentive to dogs who may feel anxious, need extra reassurance, or prefer a quieter routine. I work from home, so your dog will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, and affection throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cozy rest, I focus on keeping your pup safe, happy, and stress-free—just like family.🐶🩵 I work from home which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and companionship—so pets are never left alone for long periods. I enjoy maintaining consistent routines and can adapt to your dog’s usual schedule to help them feel comfortable and secure. Pet care fits naturally into my day, and I truly enjoy giving dogs my full attention, whether that’s during energetic walks or calm, cozy downtime. Safety and trust are my top priorities in every home. In my own home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with close supervision throughout the day. I’m very attentive to doors, leashes, and feeding instructions, and I follow each pet’s routine carefully to ensure consistency and comfort.
“So happy I found, Kiriko! My pup seems to have had a great time and Kiriko was awesome at keeping me updated with frequent & prompt communication. I will definitely book with her again. Thank you.”

Yvette was great with Nobu. She genuinely cared for my pup as if he was her own. She gave awesome updates and sent pictures while I was away. I highly recommend her to take care of your furry friends. I’m definitely contacting her next trip if she is available. Thank you soooo much Yvette!
They are so attentive to the dogs needs. This was our first time leaving our younger dog and we were worried she wouldn’t do well. She respected the dogs boundaries, followed their queues and they quickly became family to them. Received so many pictures and videos to put our minds at ease. Could not recommend them anymore!!
Finally found a rover sitter I absolutely love! Jessica was wonderful to work with and took such great care of my pup. She provided photos, videos, and texts throughout my trip which reassured me that she’s in great hands. Would not hesitate to book her again in the future! Thank you again!! 💕
We had a really positive experience with McKenley. From the start, communication was clear and professional, and I felt confident leaving my dog her care. She took the time to learn about my dog’s habits, feeding schedule, and personality, which made a big difference. While we were away, we received regular updates, including photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind. It was obvious my dog was comfortable and well cared for. When we returned, my dog was relaxed, happy, and sticking to their normal routine—no signs of stress at all. We would definitely book with them again and recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.
Melissa was terrific and super accommodating. This was a last minute booking on a holiday weekend and she still made the time to do a meet and greet and was very flexible with pick up and drop off times. Melissa sent pictures and was very communicative through the whole stay. I appreciate her and her family for their care of Elle!
We had an absolutely amazing experience with Tara. She took wonderful care of our German Shepherds and handled everything with confidence and ease. From daily routines to overall care, everything was managed seamlessly and without a single issue. For the first time, we were able to go on vacation and truly relax, knowing our dogs were in great hands. That peace of mind is priceless, especially with large breeds like German Shepherds. We came home to happy, well cared for dogs and a calm, orderly home. We are incredibly grateful and would be more than happy to have her care for our dogs again. Highly recommended.
