“We’ve used Julie twice now and she is nothing short of amazing. Our little girl loves it there and I know she is well taken care of. Julie is super easy to communicate with and very responsive! If you are looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter, book her now!”


“Carla was the nicest, sweetest hostess to my pup. I came from out of state to visit. I found her on Rover.com, near where I was staying. I have had excellent results using their app. I highly recommend her and am planning on using her again. My pup loved playing with her dog too. Lynda G.”

“Sharon is amazing. She took care of Oliver extremely well, and gave us peace of mind while we were gone. Her indoor and outdoor space were perfect, and Oliver enjoyed Sharon’s own dog. I was worried Oliver wouldn’t want to come home! We will definitely request Sharon’s services again.”

“Jamie, who goes by Lynn, was absolutely the perfect match for my dog. She is patient, kind and loving. She kept him the entire day and he was one happy dog when I picked him up. Lynn wanted to know all about him and any instructions for the day at drop off and she followed them perfectly. She has a fenced yard and they spent a lot of time out there. It is about a 20 minute drive for me and there are plenty of sitters closer, but I will continue to make the drive, because it doesn’t get any better than her.”

“Crystal and her family are truly the best! It’s incredible to see how naturally Uhtey fit in with them. He’s usually very shy around people, but watching him open up to Crystal speaks volumes about the kind and caring person she is!”


“Rachel was very communicative and our pups loved staying with her! Our dogs are high energy and Rachel did a great job of accommodating them. Rachel even sent us pics while we were away, which we loved!”

“Heather and Chris were great!!! They sent pictures every day of Honey and this made me feel at ease. Honey normally doesn’t like to be around other dogs but she seemed not to mind. They were very flexible on drop off and pick ip time. I would definitely recommend them. I will be booking again.”

“First time visiting here - my active dog spent the day with Mariah and had the best time playing outside with her pup and another visitor. Good communication, loved the photos she sent.”

“They were absolutely amazing with my dog, Charlie. From the moment we dropped him off, they were kind, patient, and super understanding. You can tell they genuinely care about the dogs they watch. Charlie was comfortable with them and that gave me a lot of peace of mind. They kept me updated and were very attentive to his needs. I’m really grateful for how well they treated him and I would 100% trust them again. Highly recommend!”

“Patrick was great! Prompt communication and plenty of picture updates on Guthrie, who looked to be having the time of his life. I swear Guthrie was positively beaming when I picked him up! The afterglow remains several days after.”

“Lola had an amazing time with Melissa and her family! They sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Lola was treated like part of the family and received lots of love and attention. I would absolutely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter, and we would definitely book with them again!”

“Megan was such an awesome sitter! She was communicative, reassuring with photo updates, accommodating with our last-minute request & took such great care of our pups. Highly recommend and would book again!”

“Stephan and Angela kept our Tula for 4 days and took very good care of her. Every picture they sent to us assured us that Tula was having a great time. Would absolutely recommend them.”

“Caroline and her husband took great care of our Rose. She sent photos and videos to let us know how Rose was doing while we were on vacation, which helped us being away from her.”

“Jared and Waverly were fantastic. I received constant communication and my girls had a great time playing with their Lucy. Highly recommend booking with them ?”

About: Hi! My name is Emm! I am a queer and queer-friendly person and active in my community. I have taken care of animals since I was 8. I raised puppies, walked massive dobermans, and at one point took care of 13 dogs at once! Feeding, watering, cleaning up after, walking, and loving your pet like you would are my top priorities. I lived with my father after becoming an adult and took care of his cat. Animals of all kinds are fine by me! I'm available at any time! When I am not working, I spend my time with my partner, listen to music, and practice my culinary skills. If I stay at your home, I will respect your pets and your things like you're my family. Your pets will be pampered and well cared for. I'll take great care of them, and give them plenty of love and attention.
“Emily was great!! Judson has some anxiety with new people, storms and doesn’t like when he’s away from us, but I think he did really well with Emily! She’s worked with many different dogs and really knows what they need and it shows. Will definitely want to rebook her in the future!!”

“Lisi took excellent care of senior dog. We had plenty of updates where she looked very comfortable and it seemed like she was really loved on during her stay. She came back happy and acting like her normal self. I would recommend Lisi!”

“Excellent experience! Becca took great care of my dog and I was a first time River user. Frequent communication during her stay and great quality of care. I recommend Becca to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!”

Wow! Such a great experience with Jacqueline! My puppy Dewey loved his experience and I was so impressed with the great care that was provided! It is obvious that Jacqueline is truly a great dog person and the communication was top notch! Loved all the great pictures and feedback! Highly recommend!

Destiny treated my 2 dogs like her own - my nervous 12 year old ate every meal, got his medications, and had a great time. Besides just walking them, they got to go to our dog park. Her photo updates were prefect - I knew they were happy so I could enjoy my vacation.

I just relocated to the area and finding a new dog sitter was a pain point and a top priority after leaving an exceptional one behind. Found Emily through a neighborhood group and was instantly comforted by her kind approach, thoughtful questions and obvious love for animals. Just finished my dog's first visit and it was clear Emily earned his trust almost immediately. Regular updates and flexibility added to the experience. We are thrilled to have found a reliable and committed new sitter in Emily.

Anthony was great! Communicarion was good. He agreed to do a meet and greet before we decided. He was affecionate and engaged with Raven as soon as they met. Raven LOVES meeting new people, so this was great for her. She was with him from Thursday morning until Saturday afternoon. He sent pics starting soon after dropoff. He answered our questions about how she was doing quickly. We had recently had a Rover visit aith a different sitter where she either had a bad intestinal bug or a severe anxiety reaction. Nothing like that here. She was thrilled to see me when we got back, but is her normal self, not needing to recuperate! Will look forward to using Anthony again.

Leah was wonderful to work with! She was very responsive and had such a calm, welcoming demeanor. Her home was very clean and well cared for, and it was clear how much thought and intention she puts into creating a safe, comfortable environment. You can really see how much she cares for the pets in her care. We would absolutely recommend her!

Jaclyn was great with our dog. She was very kind to him and he warmed up to her right away. I felt comfortable leaving him in her care. Jaclyn also sent me several updates during his stay which I loved because I could tell he was at ease. I would definitely recommend her.

It's difficult to leave your dogs for nearly two weeks, and with so many sitters to choose from it can be overwhelming trying to figure out the best person to leave them with. If that describes you, then look no farther. You will be hard pressed to find anyone who will love and care for your dogs more than William. Within minutes at our meet & greet, we knew that we wanted William to be our sitter. And our dogs and his dogs got along fabulously. We will definitely contact William the next time we need a sitter.
