3. caroline D.
“Caroline is a kind and loving person who takes care of people (and pets!) with her whole heart! She takes her responsibilities seriously and gives 110% to everything she does. Any pet, and their owner, will feel safe and loved in her very capable hands!”


4. Andrea L.

“Andrea was so, so wonderful taking care of my pup, even accommodating last minute changes when my travel changed. I absolutely recommend her for your pets!”


5. Ryan T.
“Ryan and his family always take the best care of our pups Jack and young guy, Bode. They always seem a little sad to come home to us since they had so much fun and exercise! I only could assume because they are always pooped after their wonderful visit! We have never had anyone else watch our dogs since we are very particular about who watches them! They are a perfect fit for our boys and we always look forward to our next visit. Thank you Ryan and family!”




6. Sean M.
About: I am a longtime dog owner with very friendly 12 year old Weimaraner/ Ridgeback mix and 13 year old rescue Lab mix and grew up with dog with very active golden retrievers. I work from home and have flexible days—available for drop ins and day-time walks. I work from home, so am available throughout the day for walks, drop in or boarding. Plenty of care and attention paid to them throughout the day. Like on 15 acres with trails and lots of open space. I can provide social dog time with my dog, or solo walks, as you prefer. I can send pics and face-time you while away.


7. Danyelle G.
“Danyelle has watched both of my dogs many times and taken such great care of them! My black lab, Jack, was an elderly dog who needed extra attention with his medications and assistance getting in and out of the house and I never worried that he wasn't in good hands. She also took the time to play with my younger dog Bailey to make sure she had enough exercise and interaction. Danyelle is trustworthy and polite and I would highly reccomend her!!”




8. Yael G.
“Yael has walked and cared for my dog, Adrian, several times. She takes the time to pet and bond with Adrian in addition to walking her, feeding her, and making sure her needs are met. I feel completely comfortable knowing that she is reliable, caring, and really loves animals. Adrian doesn't love everyone, but she took to Yael immediately. I highly recommend her!”

11. Lucy C.
“Lucy was a wonderful dogsitter! We were so lucky to have her! She was always incredibly kind, communicative, and accommodating. I trusted her completely in my home and felt so comfortable having her there. But more importantly I trusted her completely with my dog- I have no doubt my pup was well taken care of and loved while I was away!”




12. Ashley A.

14. Eileen B.
“Eileen has been our wonderful, trusted dog sitter for many years. As nervous dog parents with a small, fragile senior dog, we can't imagine entrusting her with anyone but Eileen. We know that going to Eileen's is a vacation for our pup and we don't worry about her at all while we are away. Eileen is an intuitive professional caretaker who anticipates our dog's needs. She always goes above and beyond and we are so grateful to her.”


15. Makayla F.
“I have known Makayla for many years now and she has always been an avid animal lover. She is a kind, compassionate, patient, reliable and nurturing human being. She has a bond with her own dog that I have been lucky enough to witness from the beginning. Makayla has worked professionally with dogs as well which only adds to her ability to care for your animal with the upmost sophistication and proficiency.”


16. Abigail H.
About: I’m a pre-vet major with a love for all animals, especially dogs! I’m 19 years old, a full time student, and have 5 years of dogsitting and dog walking experience! I have a soft spot for older dogs, as well as experience caring for young litters of pups! I walk some of my clients’ dogs in their own backyard trails, and a few I transport to local parks for our walks. I love all of my clients dogs like they’re my own, and take special care to encourage their interests, and adapt our time together to fit their personality and needs! I have 6 repeat clients that I’ve met through rover, and treasure the time that I spend with their pets. The reoccurring clients I’ve had for 8 months have become a staple in my life, and a regular in my routine. It’s so special to be the part of the week that a dog looks forward to!! Booking a few weeks in advance is a good way to ensure I’m able to work around YOUR schedule! I take pride in caring for your pets like they are my own! As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of not only respecting your dog’s boundaries, but also the rules you have for your dog! If you or your pet need to be accommodated in any way I’ll do my best to make it happen!


17. Elise C.
“Elise C. would absolutely provide safe, loving care and gave us great customer service. She cared for our bunnies and two cats. I felt at ease knowing they were taking care of while we were out of state.”


18. Alexander S.
“Alexander is an extremely caring and compassionate young man, who will always take the time to be kind to animals. Alexander is young at heart and loves spending time with his furry friends. We have a large (85 lb) husky/shepherd mix, who loves Alexander, and can’t wait for his daily afternoon walk with him. Our neighbour, who has a Golden, also has Alexander do her dog walking. In fact, he walks them together every afternoon, for an off-leash romp in the woods. I highly recommend Alexander to do your dog walking. He is prompt, courteous, and gentle.”


19. Nicole P.

“I recommend Nicole to anyone who is interested in boarding their cat or dog. She is responsible and very responsive. She always keeps us up to date when we’re using her services and includes photos. She even lets my kids FaceTime with Shelly and Sammie (our cat and dog). I’m glad to hear she’s finally joining rover - we’ve been telling her to for a while. She clearly loves what she’s doing and it shows. If only she would board kids too!!”


20. Jaimee K.
“Jaimee was awesome with both of our high energy pups! She was responsive, flexible and caring. Her space is perfect for dogs who need to move! I highly recommend Jamiee.”
