“Winnie had another great stay with Kiirsten! We always know she is in good hands with her, and gets to have a ball running around a big backyard and playing with her kids. Thank you, Kiirsten!”
“Lindsay kept us informed throughout the day about how our George was doing. She was very welcoming when we first met. We felt George was well cared for and the pictures Lindsay sent were great to see! I would highly recommend her!”
“Cathy was an amazing provider!! I cannot say enough wonderful things about her. She was kind and took great care of our dog Riley. She did walks and gave updates daily with pictures. I have never felt so worry free having someone care for our Riley. Would highly recommend Cathy to anyone!!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to big ones. Before PA school, I raised a golden retriever from puppyhood to adulthood and handled everything hands-on: crate training, basic commands, daily walks, feeding, grooming, and vet visits, including emergencies. That experience taught me how to stay calm and act quickly when something isn’t right. What sets me apart is my medical background. Before every stay, I’ll ask about your dog’s usual appetite, energy, and habits so I know what’s normal for them. My PA training has taught me to pay close attention to details, so if anything seems off, like skipped meals, unusual tiredness, or limping, I’ll notice and let you know right away. Now that my classroom training is done, I’ve been spending time with my aunt’s dog, a high-energy puppy with a leg injury. I take him on lots of walks to burn off that energy while keeping an eye on how his leg is holding up. It reminded me how much I’ve missed having a dog around. I can’t own one while I’m in school, so I’d love to give your dog the care I’d give my own. I’m in my clinical year of PA school, and while weekdays are busy with my rotation, my weekends are available. I spend them studying at home in my apartment, which means your dog gets a friend all day instead of hours alone. I’m available on weekends for boarding and walks. My current rotation is local, and I’ll have my upcoming schedule by November 9, so feel free to reach out about future dates! I live in a smoke-free, pet-friendly apartment with no other pets or kids, so your dog will have my full attention. My corner unit sits right by the exit, with quick access to grass for potty breaks. The neighborhood is quiet and residential, and the walking paths around Como Park and Como Lake are just a short walk away for longer outings. I have space for a crate, food, and toys, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine for meals, walks, and bedtime. Since I study at home on weekends, your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches. Dogs are always leashed outside, and I keep doors secured at all times. I'll also send photos and updates during their stay.
“Wesley was fantastic with our dog while for four nights of boarding. He was exceptionally good at communicating, sending updaters with photos, and making us feel at ease even though we hadn’t worked with Wesley before. It was so lovely to pick our pup up from Wesley where he was smiling and clearly well cared for! We will definitely ask Wesley to help again in the future.”
“When I first scheduled a weekend to have Kari watch my dogs, one of the dogs got sick and I had to cancel. Kari immediately responded with understanding and concern. She is a true dog-lover! Then this passed weekend, when the dogs were both healthy, Kari watched Benny and Della in her home. Based on the pictures that were sent to me while I was away, I know the pups had a great time. Thank you so much!!”
“Allison and Luis were so wonderful to work with. They kindly took my dog very last minute and were so friendly and flexible. And they sent me so many pictures of my dog having the best time with their friendly dogs. This was a wonderful experience for me and my dog and I cannot recommend them highly enough! Henry hopes to go back and stay with them again soon.”
“Nathan did a great job with our Rosie. Rosie loved lounging with the kids, playing with the other dogs, and was even the center of a dance show. We received daily updates while we were gone, and came home to a happy exhausted girl.”
“Kathryn is a wonderful care giver. My dog usually takes a while to warm up to new people was immediately calm in her arms. She sent multiple pictures daily. She is responsive with questions. Easy going and flexible with her schedule. Her home is safe and well maintained. I hope she will be available the next time I need a place for my high energy, fun loving pup”
“Emily was great with Dakota! she sent us daily updates and also discovered Dakota's love of garden hoses (which we didn't know about). would definitely book with her again!”
“Patty and Patrick have been absolutely wonderful with Lola. Before her stay, I reached out to let them know that she was dealing with a CCL injury. They had no hesitation in taking her and immediately reassured me that they were comfortable providing the extra care and attention she needed with this injury (and her existing allergies). Throughout her stay, they truly doted on Lola, making sure she was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. What stands out most is how genuinely concerned they are for her well-being. They always take special care of her and treat her as if she were their own. Knowing Lola is with Patty and Patrick gives ‘e tremendous peace of mind. Their kindness, compassion, and attentiveness are evident in everything they do.”
“Deanna took excellent care of Indy! She sent me pics and videos of how Indy was speding his day with her and her two dogs (going for a walk or playing in the snow). Deanna was flexible and easy to communicate with. Thank you, Deanna, for taking care of my boy!”
“Alyson is Awesome. I was so nervous about leaving my dog because I had only adopted her about 2 months prior, and she was having a little upset stomach. But I knew that she was in VERY good hands with Alyson. Alyson sent me pictures, gave updates, and just seemed to understand how nervous I was! Alyson is my first choice whenever I need to leave my dog.”
“Daniela watched my 4 month old puppy and I couldn’t be happier! She was extremely responsive when we reached out to her and continued communication with us the whole time! I got updates throughout everyday with pictures and messages on how my pup was doing! Even sent us home with some more treats and a bone! Will definitely be coming back to her!”
“Everything about this experience was positive. They took such good care of my big baby. We were traveling for a really sad funeral, and leaving our big baby Moose behind was really hard for all of us. Zachary and Kaci sent exactly enough photos to let us know he was having the time of his life, which put my mind at ease and also made my kids smile. Pick up and drop off were quick. They were flexible and we will definitely book with them again.”
“Al took very good care of my Cheyenne while I was away. Cheyenne has been dealing with anxiety and I was nervous to leave her, but Al was able to work with her and make her feel very comfortable. Al sent daily updates and pictures of her which I also really appreciated.”
“Judy had a wonderful stay with Stacy while I was away on a short work trip. Stacy was very communicative throughout the stay and helped coordinate an easy pickup when I returned home.”
“Yuri was amazing with Cheyenne! He sent lots of pictures of their outdoor adventures, which she loved. He was very responsive and accommodating to my last-minute request, and he even graciously offered to keep Cheyenne an extra day after our long trip home. I highly recommend Yuri and will definitely reach out next time I need a sitter.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lauderdale
Liam was a lifesaver!! He took wonderful care of our two girls, walked them every day, and sent pictures of them having a great time. We especially appreciated his experience and confidence with dogs. We explained that Stella often will alert bark/growl/settle and also growls with play and she always wants to play tug! Like always!! He was familiar with that behavior and comfortable helping her settle in. She did great! Knowing both girls were in such capable, caring hands gave us peace of mind. We’ve already told Liam we would absolutely book with him again. When we got home both dogs immediately went to sleep hard, so you know that had a great time!! Highly recommend!!
We are very protective of our two dogs, and leaving them without a family member was hard to do. Fernanda kept us well informed, daily. She followed instructions and adapted to their needs. When we picked the dogs up, they were happy to see us and be home, but seemed to miss the connection they formed with Fernanda and her daughter, and their dog.
Susan was absolutely amazing, we cannot recommend enough. Excellent communication throughout the stay with updates and pictures. Susan has an obvious care and warmth for animals which gave us peace of mind and reassurance. We found the perfect place for our little guy to be when we are away. Thank you 😊
Andrew was amazing and professional with his communication, updates and care for our Yorkie last minute, who is highly anxious and had been displaying some defensive/aggressive behaviors. He not only cared for him well, I felt confident and reassured each interaction with Andrew, even through the multitude of challenges he faced with our little guy. I felt extreme gratitude to have Andrew watch our dog. he came home happy & calm.
Lorraine is so, so sweet and clearly adores every animal she meets. Our mastiff/newfie mix, Moose, had a wonderful stay with her. She gave him tons of love and kept him active! It meant a lot to us that she was able to understand and keep up with his medications and supplements as well. She kept us very well updated on his days. We will absolutely trust Lorraine with Moose again!
I had such a great experience with Lisa! She was kind, communicative, and took excellent care of Nala. She kept me updated and made me feel completely comfortable knowing Nala was in good hands. Everything went smoothly, and Nala came home happy and well cared for. I would absolutely book with Lisa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!
