“Christopher was communicative and reassured us throughout Joey’s stay. When we picked him up, he was happy and his normal self. We would book again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was around 10 years old. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I’m patient, attentive, and always focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away. Im currently working full time from home. Which give me flexibility and plenty of time to focus on pet care. Im available on weekdays after 5pm M/T and W/T after 4:30pm and Friday after 4 pm. And fully available in the weekends. I can provide consistent attention, playtime and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I carefully follow feeding instructions, routines, and any special care needs. I keep a clean, calm environment and always supervise pets to ensure they feel secure and well cared for.

“Samantha was the best dog border we've ever had! Our dog is 16 years old and has a few special needs. Samantha managed his care SO well! We were gone for 12 days, and each day Samantha sent us pics and videos! We could see that he was not only well-cared for, but also happy. Our dog took to Samantha, her family, and her dog so well, we thought he might not want to come home again. Thankfully, he was happy to come home. :-) We hope to ask Samantha to care for him again when we travel.”

“Jacklyn did a GREAT job with my Rhocky. She made me feel so at ease leaving her for a few days. I’m so grateful to Jacklyn for keeping my baby safe. She is truly a kind woman and great dogsitter. Rhocky loved her company and I appreciated daily photos.”

“Our dog Odin had another excellent stay with Rachel and Seth. Super easy communication and booking, and very accommodating when we needed to update Odin's stay when our travel plans shifted. Leaving Odin with Rachel and Seth gives us a piece of mind that he is well taken care of, and better yet, has a great time, especially with squirrels in their yard. Will book again without hesitation.”

“This is my second time using Grete and my dog had a wonderful time with her again. Makes me so happy to know my girl is in such compassionate care when I am away.”

“Candie was awesome! I was so nervous to leave my pups and she made it such an easy experience. She sent me pictures every day, updated me, she made my nerves calm a lot. For sure taking my pups to her again!”

“Wonderful caretakers. Our dog had some anxiety issues while we were gone and Precious was very communicative and helpful navigating taking care of our boy.”


“Molly had a great visit with Karen! She came home happy and exhausted, which is always a good thing! Enjoyed receiving pictures and videos! I love that she only boards small dogs! Will definitely book with Karen again!”

“It was Hunter's longest stay away from me, and I was worried, but Yaima sent me lots of pictures and messages to keep me updated. When I picked him up, he was happy and content - a true testament to Yaima's amazing care! 🙏Thank you so much! 🐾❤️”

“Yelena is a blessing and I’m glad my neighbor referred Rover to me. Noah loves her and her puppies and he got along with the other dogs that were in her care. 10/10 recommends. I’ve already booked our next stay. Thanks Yelena😃”

“Amazing dog sitter! We trust him with our dog & are pretty picky about who we will leave her with. She always has a blast at his house. Love the daily picture updates. Highly recommend him!”

“Gabriel was again excellent in his care of our little guy. Barnaby is completely comfortable there and is instantly 'one of the pack.' We are fortunate to have Gabriel as Barnaby's caregiver.”

“Sharon did an amazing job with my boy Dave! He was well cared for and and very happy when I picked him up. Her communication and daily pics were on point. I couldn't ask for a better sitter and will use again!”

“David was so great to my two frenchies. We completed a meet and greet and I knew within minutes of my dogs exploring and meeting the pack that this would be a great fit. They got to make new friends and be part of a very well behaved pack. They received lots of activity in his large enclosed yard with plenty of space to run or explore. Dogs were bathed on pickup and looked happy and healthy. David send daily videos which were greatly appreciated. I will definitely be using David for all my travel plans knowing my dogs are in good hands.”

“Kelvin was amazing!!! So this is my first time using the app I was very nervous at first leaving my boy behind but Kelvin made the experience great! I was trying not to overwhelm myself and him since it was my first time. He kept me updated with pictures and would check in with me in the morning and the night time just to ease my nerves. But i definitely recommend Kelvin!”

“Roxy loved hanging out with everyone at Julie's. I received lots of pictures and updates. Roxy is a needy Lab and they did a fabulous job giving her attention ♡”

“Tammy took great care of Twinkle. I felt confident my dog was in good hands, and the updates were really reassuring. Twinkle was happy and well cared for. I’d definitely book with Tammy again!”

Lawrence dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jessica was absolutely amazing with our not entirely housebroken 14-week-old puppy!!! She kept me updated with how he was doing and even taught him how to sit! He came home extremely happy and well cared for. I will definitely have her watch our puppy in the future.

Rashawnda was truly an amazing dog sitter for my baby boy, Bear! I was initially worried because Bear has anxiety and doesn’t usually do well in unfamiliar environments. But thanks to Rashawnda’s patience and loving care, he settled in quickly and felt right at home. She kept me updated and I could tell Bear was happy, relaxed, and well-cared for the entire time. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust with my pup. I would highly recommend Rashawnda to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!
