“Holly was so kind it was first time i left my dogs she sent pics and let me know how they were. They seemd to love it there. I would recommend her to anyone needs a dog sitter”

“Kylie and her family were phenomenal! My pup felt right at home with her 2 other dogs - who are the sweetest and well behaved. Kylie was so great and sent photos daily to show how happy and just how much she was being loved on!! Would recommend her to all for anyone needing a loving stay-cation for their dog🙂”

“Ally was really great with my dog Miller. She was very open with her communication and sent a lot of updates and pictures over the weekend. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter in the area. And will definitely let her watch my dog again in the future”


“Lisa did a great job with our dog who suffers from separation anxiety. She gave him all the snuggles he wanted and kept updating us regularly. We will be sure to use Lisa again!”

“Becky took care of Silky very well and took him for walks and updated regularly regarding how he was doing. She also picked him up and dropped him off which was very convenient especially with the bad weather with snow at the time.”

About: I have been a pet lover for many years! I enjoy helping out, taking them for walks benefits both of us! Emotional care and play are just as important. I currently work full time from home. I enjoy sitting outside and working in the garden, incorporating play time into our outdoor time is always a must. I have a large unfenced yard, with 3 fur friends of my own to play and show boundaries! I am good at implementing rules or training goals you have for your pet!

“Knowledgeable and kind caretakers. My dog seemed to like it there and I appreciated hearing how well he did for them. The pics throughout the week were a very nice bonus (and a comfort). :)”

“Maricela was awesome with easing in Sami into her home, giving her space to get used to the new environment. She sent pictures daily and was always incredibly responsive in both the inquiry and once booked. She accommodated our requests and was incredibly friendly. Definitely recommend Maricela if you are looking for someone that will treat your pet as their own!”

“Shaelea is great to work with. She has watched my dog twice now. She is very friendly and a great communicator. She accepted my fairly last-minute request, which was so helpful. I highly recommend her to others.”

“Highly recommend Nancy!! She ensured both pups had so much fun and did the things they enjoyed the most. Jack and Finn made 2 new friends that were so welcoming as well. Nancy was the perfect match for our pups and she will be for yours too!!”

“This was our first time away from Stanley for more than a few days. Stanley seemed happy while we were gone and we felt better knowing he was well taken care of! He really likes Christy and Erkam!”

About: I've always had pets growing up. I currently have 2 dogs of my own, one female and one male. The female is 40 lbs and the male is 10lbs. I currently work a full time job so I'm only available on nights and boarding on weekends. But I'm usually always home when I'm not working. I have outdoor tie ups so your dogs can still get exercise. I will be fencing in part of the yard eventually. The 2 dogs I have are high energy and will play with any animal. I do have crates if they need to be crated.
“I felt very comfortable leaving our dog Indy with Joanne and would definitively use her again. Joanne was very good to communicate how things were going and even sent a picture! I have no doubt that Indy was happy and well taken care of which made me happy and more relaxed while away.”

“Rebekah was absolutely wonderful with my dog! My dog is special needs and a nervous nelly about nearly everything. I was the typical nervous parent, leaving her with someone new for the first time. Poof settled in so fast, and Rebekah did a great job with all of her needs! Her dogs are friendly, and gave Poof some canine companionship while we were away. To be honest, I don’t think she missed us at all! Rebekah checked in, sent photos, and made me feel super safe leaving Poof in her hands. If I ever need a sitter again, I certainly know who I’m going to! ❤️”

“Carmen was great. She's a very sweet and caring person. She has a beautiful place out in the country. And I needed a place for my pomeranian to stay at the last minute for a long weekend and she was willing to take him.”

About: We have been pet sitting for friends and colleagues for 2 years so thought why not join Rover and do more! Our clients love my family and we love their pets so it makes perfect sense. I have 4 kids, a small dog and two cats and my small pets just hide if a visiting pet is too much for them otherwise they don't get bothered or bother anyone else, human or pet! I work from home and I have 4 kids who love cats and dogs and love to help out with the dogs that we already provide services for. We are trusted with hideaway keys to homes to let dogs out and we run them in fenced in yards to burn energy. Then we make sure they have food and water and kennel them if applicable before we leave. In our house, visiting pets are watched over by all members of the family. Sometimes we buy them their own special toy to play with. We make sure they eat and get any meds they might need.
