“Audrey was an outstanding pet sitter for our dog. Our dog is typically shy and takes time to warm up to people, but Audrey built rapport with our dog immediately and made her feel loved and safe. We are absolutely grateful for finding her to take care of our dog! Audrey has such calm and caring energy that made all the difference with our dog! I know that our dog will miss seeing Audrey! I will definitely book with her the next time we are in need of care! Thank you so much Audrey!”
“Aloysius is a nice dude with good energy! He kept me updated with plenty of photos and messages throughout my day. My pup had a great day with him. Love that he takes the dogs on walks too. Highly recommend 🙂”
“We had a fantastic experience with Nancy for doggie daycare! She was incredibly responsive and friendly throughout the entire process. Our dog, Cash, came home happy and totally exhausted from all the fun he had—which is exactly what we were hoping for! We were hosting an event at our home, and Nancy went above and beyond by offering pick-up and drop-off, which made things so much easier for us. We’re so grateful for her care and will definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“It was my first time using Rover, and I had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved furry friend with Liz, and I must say that my experience was absolutely outstanding! Liz's exceptional care, attentiveness, and genuine love for dogs left me feeling confident and at ease throughout my time away. It was evident that Liz's own pups were well-trained and had a positive influence on my dog's behavior as well. Throughout my absence, Liz kept me informed with regular updates, including pictures and videos of my dog enjoying their time with her and her other pup’s. Thank you! Misty had a great time!”
“Beth was great! We were in town for the baseball game and didn’t want to leave our dog in the motorhome. Beth took Chloe on a walk, snuggled with her, and got her a pup cup! This was our first time using Rover and it was a great experience.”
“Antonio was the best. I got regular video updates and my dog was clearly having the best time during his stay. I look forward to working with Antonio again in the future.”
“Justine is amazing! She does a lot of fun activities with out dog, sends updates throughout the day and is great at communicating. 100% recommend!”
“Colin was sooo good with my dog, Fluffy- who can be particular with new people. He is patient, detail oriented, thoughtful, and provided great updates throughout the day. His home is clean and safe for dogs. I’ll continue to use him as a sitter for Fluffy for as long as he’ll have him!”
“I’m so happy I found him! He works from home so he spent a ton of time with my baby. I work variable shifts at the hospital so he was really flexible about boarding him over night and the pickup/drop off times to accommodate my graveyard. He FaceTimed me so I could say goodnight to my baby and sent me lots of pics of their adventure. HIGHLY recommend!!!”
“Sophia, you guys were awesome, thank you! Last min booking and gave so much love and attention to sof. Also really appreciated the photos throughout the day!”
“Thank you Vanessa! Archie was in great hands and Vanessa was very communicative throughout coordinating beforehand and on the day when she watched him. ??”
“Heidi did great taking care of our girl Zoe. She kept us updated often with pictures and videos. She communicated with us when she had questions and responded to questions we had in a timely manner. She was professional and from the pictures, I could tell Zoe was having a great time playing with her dogs. She came home happy and tired. Thanks Heidi!”
“Myra took great care of our Zoe during Halloween weekend. She took her on many adventures during the weekend of her stay, and Zoe was tired and happy when we picked her up both days. Myra did such a great job and sent us pictures during the day. I'm really happy with the care that she provided to Zoe.”
“We are so lucky we found Micaiah and I cannot recommend her more highly! We just moved to the area and needed to find a solution for our dog, Matilda, during the day while we are at work full time. We’ve always done a mix of mid-afternoon walkers for potty breaks and the occasional commercial doggie daycare (but it gets expensive fast so we have to limit it). Micaiah’s in-home daycare is is just the perfect solution for excellent care and great value! Our girl gets lots of playtime (including getting to go the park daily), plenty of potty breaks (our new house doesn’t have a yard) and loving company throughout the day. We know she is safe and feeling loved. Micaiah is super responsive, friendly, and flexible. I am the kind of person who likes a lot of updates and she’s answered all my questions in a timely manner and helped me to feel right at ease. We get the cutest pictures as her regular updates and we know our girl is in good hands. Micaiah clearly had lots of experience with dogs and is able to welcome new dogs into the pack with her expertise. Our girl was clearly feeling right at home her first day with Micaiah. With her, it’s totally worth the extra $$ compared to having a walker only come once for a potty break. Drop off is right along my husband’s commute and she has always been able to accommodate changed in our schedules to adjust pick up and drop off. Overall, great environment, great care, and great value. We couldn’t be happier for our girl!!”
About: I’ve always had both dogs and cats throughout life. With two dogs and a cat of my own, I am well trained in taking care of pets needs. I have experience with puppies and dogs with special medical needs. I also have experience with special needs diets and administering medication. I am working full-time from home. I go into the office for a bit on Tuesdays, but live near the office so I am able to come home and take dogs out on my lunch break. I have two dogs that I take to our dog park about every 3-4 hours and have a safe balcony for dogs to enjoy sunbathing while I’m working. I have a dog park that we go to several times a day. I have two dogs both Havanese/Maltese mix who are used to other dogs in our home and a Maine Coon cat that gets along well with other dogs. Pets are welcome on all the furniture and the bed so it’s appreciated if they get a bath prior to boarding. I’m happy to kennel your dog if that is what you prefer as well.
“Amanda was great with my dog Laszlo! I would use her again anytime.”
“Noodle loved being at Gabby’s! She was able to play with Gabby’s dog and another pup on the two days she went to day care. She was given a walk each day and plenty of playtime. When we showed up to Gabby’s the second time, Noodle knew exactly where to go and was very excited to see her friend Athena. Gabby updated me throughout the day while I was at work which put me at ease knowing my pup was in good hands. At the end of the visit, I got an amazing detailed description of the day with some pictures. Noodle can’t wait for more doggy day care at Gabby’s.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received while I am at work. Cassandra was incredibly reliable, attentive, and loving with my pup. From daily updates and adorable photos to going the extra mile with walks and playtime, it was clear my dog was in great hands. I came home to a happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for dog—and that peace of mind is priceless. I highly recommend Cassandra to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their furry family member!”

Stefani P.
“Stefani is very responsible & reliable. I worked with stefani for years, and we remained friends since. She has cats that she adopted and often watches her friends dogs. I referred stefani to Rover because I have enjoyed my experiences so far utilizing the services and providing my service to animals. I think it’s a great opportunity and she would do well. She has a great home and backyard to be a caretaker.”
