“This is the second time I’ve left Serafina with Giannina, and just like the first time, she came back super happy! Always appreciate that she gives daily updates on how Fina’s doing, with pictures!”
“First time using Rover and I couldn’t be more happy with the entire experience. Jordan is absolutely amazing! If you are looking for a fun, safe place for your pups and peace of mind, I highly recommend putting your trust in Jordan. She shared updated throughout the stay and both my dogs were very well taken care of and”
“Cathy is so lovely and caring. She has watched our pups in last minute situations and has been wonderfully accommodating. I think one of the dogs might break his tail from wagging it so hard with excitement when we pull into her driveway. Thank you Cathy!”
“She is very helpful and understanding. My flights have been delayed or I have run into traffic which causes my delays. I communicate with her & she always response with understanding. My dog has been with her & cheddar a few times now.”

“Nancy was amazing and very accommodating. We took Axel for a meet and greet and when we went back for his overnight stay he was clearly excited to be there and ran right up to her without looking back at us when we left. I couldn’t have asked for a better place for our dog to stay. We will definitely be using Nancy again in the future. It was a big relief knowing our dog was in great hands while we were away.”
“Jesseeka did such a good job with blaze. I was worried about leaving him, he dosnt like to be away from me for long, but when I showed up to pick him up he wanted to stay with her, LoL.”
“April is the best! I bring my dog to her instead of leaving him with family because he loves her house and dogs so much. Great communication and clearly a massive dog lover.”

I am recommending her to all my friends. I am definitely going to be using her again to care for my baby. THANK YOU SO MUCH JASMINE❤”
About: I have had all kinds of pets growing up. I currently have three dogs of my own. Two girls and one boy. I also have worked at a pet store for the past 2 years providing pet care to 40+ puppies on a daily basis. Each of them are loved and cared for as if they were my own and I’ll be sure to do the same for yours! ❤️🐾 Because I work full time I only have two-3 days available for my provided services. Those days are usually Tuesdays and Fridays each week :) My pets free roam the house but I have a doggy gate blocking the steps or any “unsafe” areas. I also have pet cameras placed in the main parts of my home. And bedroom doors are always closed for their safety 💖
“Holly and kiddos took such great care of Lacey. I felt so comfortable and confident leaving our dog for a couple days. I so appreciated the updates and photos. Thank you so much.”
About: With a lifetime of experience caring for a wide variety of pets, I’m confident handling different temperaments and routines. I enjoy building trust with each animal and tailoring care to their individual personality. We lost our beloved boxer Duke on Black Friday 2025 after a bout with an aggressive lymphoma. I miss having our buddy around, but I'm not ready to own another dog yet. I need some time to heal. I figured I would bridge the gap, by walking and watching other people's pups. I currently work part-time, which allows me to offer a flexible schedule and dependable availability for walks and drop-ins, including daytime visits and occasional last-minute needs. For walks and drop-ins, I focus on keeping your pet comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. During visits, I provide fresh water, feeding if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and attention based on your pet’s personality and energy level. On walks, I prioritize safety, consistent pacing, and giving your dog a chance to enjoy exercise and stimulation. I also make sure your home is secure before leaving and will provide updates so you know how your pet is doing.
“Niyah did a really good job with my dog Lady. Niyah sent me pictures of Lady daily to show me that Lady was okay. Niyah was responsive when I reach out to her and she replied immediately to all of my text messages. Lady returned home happy and she was returned back to me in the same condition I left her. If I need a dog sitter in the future I would leave Lady with her again. Thank you Niyah for taking care of Lady with short notice during the Holiday.”
“Meredith was just amazing. She handled my crazy dog along with her family and dogs like a champ. My pup seemed to greatly enjoy herself. Along with a happy pup, my dog came home with a few more manners. We will use her in the future for sure. 😊”
“Amia,Joshua and family have been nothing but great to my baby Barry. He loves spending time over there, I definitely recommend them. They are the best fit for your fur baby 🙂”
“MacKenzie was great with Roadie! He had so much fun playing with and meeting new friends. I can tell he was well taken care of. MacKenzie kept me updated on his stay and was very good with communication. She even sent me beautiful pictures to remember his awesome experience!”
About: I’m currently employed at a local animal hospital, working specifically in the boarding department! Meaning my whole job is to be responsible of 20+ animals at a minimum. I have 3 years of experience, I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs throughout my experience, including sweet, energetic pups, reactive or fearful dogs, strong pullers, and senior dogs who need extra patience and care. I’m comfortable handling dogs with different temperaments and understand how important it is to stay calm, confident, and attentive in every situation. Whether your dog loves long walks and playtime or needs a slower pace, medication, or gentle handling, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping owners updated and reassured. I’m pretty flexible! With school i’m mostly not available during the day but weekends and breaks i am happy to stop by and care for pets! I prioritize animal care above all! I am very aware of all animals needs and how i can meet them! I’d be honered to take care!

Lake Station dog parents share their Rover experiences
We had a great experience with Serena and her family while our dog, Stella, stayed with them for eight days. From the start, it was clear Stella was in a warm and welcoming environment, and she quickly settled right in. Serena and her family were incredibly kind and gracious, and it really showed in how happy and comfortable Stella was during her stay. It gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing she was being well cared for and treated like part of the family. One of the highlights was that Stella even came home having learned a few new tricks! It’s obvious that Serena goes above and beyond, not just looking after the dogs but actually spending quality time with them. We’re very grateful for the care Stella received and wouldn’t hesitate to book with Serena again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter!
