“Lee did a great job from the very first meet and greet to the last pick up when we had her watch our 2 little chihuahua terrier mixes. She sent us daily photos so that we’d know they were doing well with her other dogs. Highly recommend!”


“We couldn’t have asked for better care for Kiko! Megan and Jenny were so flexible, thoughtful, and sent us lots of updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. Kiko was clearly in great hands — we’re so grateful and would absolutely recommend them to anyone!”


“Finn had such a good time at Vanessa’s. He was safe and well cared for and we are very appreciative!”


“Alexandra was great at communicating and following instructions we left for our pup. We got daily updates and she answered any and all questions quickly and with care. Would definitely re-book!”



“Beth and Jeff took amazing care of my dog Fatima. I was nervous leaving her because I have only left her once before. However, Beth and Jeff have an amazing house with a huge backyard and allow the dogs free range of the area. In addition they allow the dogs to choose their sleep place. It was important to me that Fatima would not be crated during her stay. Beth and Jeff sent many updates with pictures showing Fatima’s playtime and rest time and eating. They even provided her with a slow feeder when they noticed she ate too fast! Amazing care takers who clearly care about my dogs well being and health and who want to ensure your dog has the best experience while they stay with them. It is evident they love dogs, understand dog behavior, how to read dog communication, and how to help dogs feel comfortable and adjust to the environment while they stay there. I highly recommend Beth and Jeff and will use their services again in the future. THANK YOU SO MUCH for giving me peace of mind while I was away! And thank you so much for giving Fatima a safe and amazing stay with you guys! I am so incredibly grateful. 🙏 ❤️”

“Andrea is wonderful! She’s so kind and caring with my little dog. He wasn’t feeling 100% when I dropped him off. She took extra good care of him, made sure he got plenty of rest, and sent me lots of updates and photos. Excellent experience and I will definitely call on her again. Thanks!!!”


“Great experience boarding our pup with Karen. It is difficult to find someone you can trust with taking care of your pup where you will be comfortable they will make the right decisions if anything unexpected arises. We are glad we spent the time to find and board with Karen.”

I highly recommend Eiko and won’t hesitate to use her again.”

About: Hi, I’m Austin – a lifelong dog lover with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve been looking after dogs since I was 12, and it’s more than just a job to me—it’s a way of life. I know every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to build trust and make sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease. Whether your dog’s full of energy or a little shy like my own pup Lady, I’m all about meeting them where they’re at. You can count on me for dependable, compassionate care—and plenty of tail wags. Also, I can teach your dog how to shake within an hour (: I currently work from home and part time as I have my own business that I passively run with a lot of help from my manager. So I have plenty of time for your pets and my own pup I offer a calm, secure environment where pets can relax and feel at home. My house has plenty of space for them to roam inside, plus a large fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play and fresh air. I always supervise backyard time and tailor the day to match your dog’s energy level and needs. If your pup is crate-trained or needs a quiet space to unwind, I’ve got clean, comfortable crates available. Safety is my top priority—I keep a close eye on each dog and never take on more pets than I can give proper attention to. You can trust that while you’re away, your dog will be in a safe, loving, and well-managed space.

“Karen was absolutely amazing with our dog Bennett! We’ve never had such a kind and caring pet sitter that we trusted so easily! We received frequent updates and never had any doubt about the level of care our dog was receiving! I 100% recommend Karen and will definitely book again whenever we need a reliable sitter!”

Lynn-Highland Park dog parents share their Rover experiences
Alexandra is awesome! Our bear dog had a great time with her and was very well taken care of. We felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. Alex is a very good communicator and we had great updates throughout the trip.

They’re the best! Was so glad they were available over July 4th to watch our greyhound. He gets tons of playtime and attention.

Scarlet was great with Alfie! She sent updates and made sure to assure me he was safe and doing well. Alfie got along great with her dog to as he's a sweet one.

Excellent care for our Papillon. Lots of good feedback and pictures during the stay to keep us informed. Thoughtful. Kind.

Kylie and fam were great! Louie seemed to fit right into their wonderful lil pack. Kylie gave us regular updates on their adventures. Easy communication and we felt secure leaving our lil dude for two weeks in their trusted hands.

Vanclee took great care of my big goofy Labrador! He welcomed Jett outside, sent an update, and shared photos of Jett out on a hike, hanging out on the grass at the park with his dog, and enjoying the sun next to the windows along with a summary of their time together. Would definitely recommend and book again. Thanks Vanclee!

Mary was absolutely fantastic. Provided lots of love and great care for our anxious little dog! Will definitely use Mary’s services again.

Working with Lilly was great! She took amazing and attentive care of our dog. So grateful for the many updates, photos and videos throughout as well!

Todd was great with Hiro, my Shiba Inu. Hiro does not like other dogs so I am always nervous leaving him with sitters. Todd provided expert care, regular updates and my dog was really happy staying with him.

They took such good care of my sweet girl Dallaz. She came back with such a calm energy and I super appreciate that

Julie and Ankit were great! They were easy to communicate with, flexible, and took great care of my dog. They even gave her pumpkin when she had diarrhea which was very caring and sweet! I’d send Zola back to them any time!

I left my French bulldog, Saint, with Nemo while I was away for my sister’s wedding, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the care he provided. Saint can be a reactive pup, but Nemo was incredibly intentional, patient, attentive, and clearly experienced. I highly recommend Nemo to anyone looking for someone who truly cares about the dogs he boards.

Wonderful pet sitters! Very dependable and trustworthy. They took great care of our shy pup for a week. They have a big back yard which is fully fenced in and our boy loved lounging around in the sun. Would totally recommend and book them again!

Alexis was wonderful with our dog Waffle! Waffle stayed over the 4th of July weekend, and fireworks make her anxious, but Alexis was so kind and patient with her. Alexis sent lots of photos and updates, which was great. We'd gladly have her watch Waffle again!

Laura was amazing!! She took good care of my baby and made him super comfortable. Would definitely recommend her

the best of the best. excellent communication. outstanding care. And always goes above and beyond with my little guy.

Finn had such a good time at Vanessa’s. He was safe and well cared for and we are very appreciative!

Thanks for taking such great care of Tootsie! She told me she had such a fun time during her week with you and that she can’t wait to come back and visit again.
