“Desi had a wonderful time with Erika. Desi is very shy at first but she warmed up to Erika quickly. The feeling was apparently mutual as she told me Desi would be welcome any time. It's such a comfort to know your dog is being well cared for when your gone.”
“Great stay with Annette! We enjoyed all of the daily pictures and check - ins. Bella the pug had a great stay and was happy as well. Won't hesitate to use Annette again and highly recommend.”
“Matt, Brook, their kids, and Mr. Bo Jangles were amazing! Just a warm, friendly family that enjoys their pets. Their home is completely pet friendly with a fenced-in backyard that Blu and Bo Jangles exhausted themselves playing. I really cannot say enough kind things about Matthew and his family. Blu came home happily exhausted and crashed for the remainder of the day through the night. I look forward to Blue spending time with Bo again!”
“Marie and her family were incredible with our puppy. He was only 13 weeks at the time so of course we were a little anxious. What a waste of energy! We got texts and pictures every day so we could see how well he was doing. Allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away. Exceeded all of our expectations. Wouldn’t hesitate to use again and would highly recommend Marie to anyone ?❤️”
“Dew was wonderful! Our sweet girl can be nervous and uneasy in new situations and Dew was endlessly patient and warm putting her at ease while she was staying with her. Dew sent pictures adn updates to keep us in the loop and was super quick in responding to any questions we had! I would absolutely recommend her and hope to have her pet sit Sankaty for us again!”
“Lily was warm and caring. Leo was comfortable and played with his friends. She gave the food exactly as instructed. Shared endearing pictures with us. Overall it was a good experience for all of us. Thanks Lily.”
“Our girl Rue had a great time during her stay in Rich’s home! We received pictures several times daily of Rue playing with the other dog guests (along with Rich’s own dogs) in his large fenced in yard. Rich was responsive and friendly during our meet and greet, and throughout Rue’s stay with him. Rue returned home very tired and happy!”
“I left my mini Australian shepherd for a long weekend with Lucienne. She was incredibly flexible with pickup and drop off times. We did a meet and greet before hand where it was clear she was going to give my dog a great weekend. She sent photo updates during the weekend”
“Jeff was absolutely fantastic! He kept us up to date on Gretta in a timely manner. I was a nervous Nellie leaving her overnight as she hasn’t been away from us much in her 11 years. Look no further for the most excellent dog sitter. Thanks, Jeff!”
“Michelle was great!! Jax had a great time with her and her family while I was away for the week. He had a vacation of his own. Michelle sent me pictures of him every day which was very reassuring as it was the first time i was leaving him behind. 5/5!!”
“Brittany was wonderful with Cody. He is not used to be separated from us so we knew that he would be a challenge. I am happy with the treatment that Cody received and if the occasion occurs we will book with Brittany again.”
About: I grew up with a loved dog and spent countless joyful hours caring for, playing with and training her. In addition to growing up with a dog, I had the pleasure of intermittently watching my neighbors’ dogs for the past four years and each experience has deepened my love for our furry friends. You can trust that your pets will receive abundant love and attention while you’re away. Having navigated my own dog’s seizures, I’m well-equipped to handle any situation and comfortable administering medication if needed. I can clean up after animals in any regard and am comfortable bathing them if necessary. Your pets will be in compassionate and capable hands. Pet care is something I look forward too every day. Each day, I will dedicate specific times for walks, play and feeding, ensuring that your pets’ needs are fully met. While I work a full-time job, I am ready to accommodate my schedule during the week. I’m available for dog walking or dog sitting or cat sitting after 5 PM on Mondays Wednesdays and Fridays. On the weekends, I have even more flexibility, allowing for extended playtime and quality moments with your pets. I have no pets at home, creating a calm and comfortable environment for your pets. If it helps them feel more at ease, I can easily section off a room just for your dog or cat. I also have a long leash available, allowing for plenty of fun and exploration in a safe space. My goal is to provide a stress-free atmosphere for your pets. I’m more than happy to come to your home as well, ensuring they remain in a familiar setting that minimizes anxiety.
“I couldn't have ask for a better dog sitter! Candace is incredibly reliable, caring, and attentive to every detail of my dog’s needs. From regular walks to cuddle time and updates with photos, she goes above and beyond to make sure my puppy feels safe, loved, and happy while we're away. It's such a relief to know my dog was in such compassionate and capable hands. I highly recommend Candace to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving caregiver for their furry family member!”
“Cherissa was an amazing host. I had a cancellation last minute with a sitter due to an emergency and she was available and so easy to work with. She shared pictures and updates of our puppy multiple times throughout the day of what my fur baby was doing. I will definitely be booking with Cherissa again.”
“I cannot recommend Stephen enough. He took amazing care of our Buddy while we were away. He communicated and sent us videos and updates every day. He was cautious when introducing Buddy to the other dogs in his care and we had a meet and greet prior to the stay which I appreciate, he goes above and beyond to make sure the dogs in his care are compatible to keep all dogs safe. I look forward to using him in the future and I know Buddy will too. You can see that dogs in Stephens care are treated as his own and that is so comforting when leaving your dog in his care.”

Jessica K.
“I have had the pleasure of knowing Jessica for over five years, and during that time, she has consistently demonstrated her love and care for animals, especially dogs. As the owner of a Pomeranian named Zara, I can personally attest to Jessica's exceptional ability to care for pets. She has watched Zara on numerous occasions, sometimes for as long as two weeks, and I have always been impressed by the level of attention and care she provides. Jessica treats Zara as if she were her own, making sure that she is not only fed and walked but also comfortable and happy. She is incredibly attentive to Zara's needs and never hesitates to go above and beyond to make sure she feels loved. Jessica's natural love for dogs and animals has been evident throughout our friendship, and I can't think of anyone better suited to work with animals. I have no doubt that Jessica would be a fantastic addition to Rover, and I highly recommend her for any role that involves caring for dogs. She would thrive in this environment, and any pet in her care would be in excellent hands.”
