“I appreciate the attention, love and extra care that she puts into learning how to handle Frankie's high energy. She comes home so happy--and better trained than when I left her! Thank you, again.”


“Rita and Brian are wondering at what they do. I have a senior dog and Rita was so caring and thoughtful with her. She did everything she could to help my dog to be comfortable in her care. I would book them again in a heartbeat.”


“I can’t rave enough about Mareth! Our girl Dani is a mill rescue and very suspicious of new people. She had never stayed anywhere but our house. After having taken training classes with Mareth I knew when Dani needed to board she would be in good hands. Mareth and her pups are gracious hosts, your dog(s) will come home happy, healthy, and tuckered! The peace of mind knowing your pups are cared for and safe is priceless.”


“We had a last minute need for a dog sitter and Kelsey was incredibly accommodating and willing to help watch out pup. She was considerate, sent updates and pictures, and was sure to check in on any needs our dog may need. Highly highly recommended!”


“Brianne did a great job with our Aussies. We got pictures and updates every other day and our pups loved playing with her dogs! She even took on our 3 month old Aussie pup. Thanks Brianne!”


“Marisa took care of my pup for a weekend and she was incredible! She kept me updated each day with plenty of pictures and vids of my pup letting me know he was having fun. She was very flexible and made me feel very comfortable leaving my pup with her. Her sweet dog Paya made for an awesome friend to play with too!”


“Nicholas and Emily were awesome with Lucy. She’s still a little puppy so I knew i needed to find someone with patience and love. They were excellent at making sure she was going out on time and giving her lots of play time outside. They sent me multiple pictures a day and responded very quickly when I had any questions at all. I will definitely be using them in the near future! Thanks Nicholas and Emily for taking such great care of Lucy! I know she had a blast!!”


“From the time we dropped off our pup, we shown that she would be in great care. Gary and Heather provided consistent updates and photos as promised. We were told that our pup would be “cared for like one of our own” and our experience proved that. They took our pup to the dog park and the dog beach. As a high energy pup, we could tell she was thoroughly engaged judging by how tired she was when she returned home. We would highly recommend Gary and Heather to give you a peace of mind and your pup a loving home away from home.”


“She was absolutely wonderful with my pup! He is a special needs pup and she took wonderful care of him. He took to her right away and I felt very assured that he was well taken care of and loved. Highly recommend her!”


“Monica was really great with my Shiloh. She made sure to send me lots of photos and it looks like Shiloh had such a great time. She's super sweet and kind. I felt really relieved that Shiloh had such a great time.”



“We had Chelsie watch our 10 year old Rottie who has bad knees She took great care of her and she got a lot of attention. She even gave her a bath and trimmed her nails. If you want your dog to have a Lotta constant interaction and attention this is a great option. Very nice family and very capable”



“Caitlin did a great job at corresponding with me prior to the booked dates, and was very quick to respond. She took great care of my dog and did send pics as requested. I would happily use her service again!”


About: I've owned & been around cats & dogs all of my life. I am very patient & loving. They'll love me!!! I can't get enough of them! I work a small set schedule. I am available almost all day, every day. I work from my car a lot also, so I'm quite mobile. Animals RULE my house. I currently have 3 black cats. They are beyond spoiled every minute of every day! I am totally obsessed & in love!!!

About: I have over 20years of experience taking care of dogs and cats. I’ve raised my own pets since I was young until now and have also helped friends and neighbors with pet sitting, walking, feeding, and giving basic medications. I truly love animals and always make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved when they’re with me. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or just making sure they eat and rest well, I always treat every pet like family. I currently work part-time and have flexible hours, which gives me plenty of time to care for pets. I’m available most weekdays I enjoy spending quality time with pets—whether it’s walking, playing, or just keeping them company. I provide a safe and loving environment for all pets.I have experience with both small and large dogs. I’m very careful with feeding, medication (if needed), and always make sure your pet feels at home. I can also follow your pet’s usual routine to reduce stress.

“Kristine was our first ever Rover experience. She and her family were so loving and engaged with our dog. She sent daily updates and pictures and went out of her way to make sure we knew our dog was having a great time while we were away. We intend to reach out to her again in the future and would recommend her to everyone. So much care and kindness!”


“A+++ Abigale is our first pick for future sitting :) As this was our first time using Rover.com (or any community-based pet sitting service), Abigale definitely put my mind at ease. Our Australian Shepherd, Coconut gained new friends while staying with Abigale and her family. As Abigale regularly cares for all types of dogs, Coconut felt very comfortable with her and was right at home. She sent us photos of Coconut everyday and updated us on her behavior regularly. She cared for our fur daughter just as we would have hoped for! Thank you Abigale for being a lovely friend to Coconut and for being an awesome person overall! We look forward to our next vacation, and I know Coconut feels the same about her next "retreat" at your lovely home! Thanks again!”


“Katie & Luke helped me feel so secure and at ease leaving Kiki with them. They took excellent care of her and were so kind, sweet and gentle. Little Molly became Kiki's new little sister! I can't recommend them enough. Thank you so much!!”

Carolyne T.
“I can’t recommend Carolyne Tsilimos highly enough! She took amazing care of my pets while I was away, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. She checked in regularly with thoughtful updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that my dogs and cat were extremely comfortable around her — they warmed up to her immediately, and that’s not always the case! Carolyne is reliable, attentive, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. I truly appreciated her communication, care, and the extra attention she gave to making sure everyone was happy and healthy. I’ll absolutely be turning to her again the next time I need a sitter!”
