“Rita took great care of Toby. She checked in with us and sent pictures and videos. Normally, Toby is restless and paces and seems anxious when he comes home from staying. He was very chill and seemed just like normal when he came home from Rita's. We were very happy about that. We'll be taking Toby back to Rita's.”


“Katie watched our dog Nova while we were away for our wedding and was all we could ever ask for! She always responded promptly and put our worries at ease. Our dog is high energy and gets stressed when we leave her. Katie was a gem through it all. Her daughters are also amazing with dogs and we know Nova had the best time with them! We are truly so thankful for Katie and her family!”


“Enrica & Roberto rolled out the red carpet for our Frannie. Numerous photo updates, with accompanying messages, definitely put our minds at ease. When I went to pick up our little girl, I wasn’t sure she would want to come home!”



“Our pup, Hudson stayed with Olivia for a week. She communicated with us throughout Hudson’s stay and sent us lots of pictures of him playing. We could not be happier with her! Will definitely be using her again in the future!!”


“Tariq was a fantastic Dog sitter and made sure Bella our Lab got lots of exercise and had plenty of fun while we were away. Photo and video updates were a great way to see her playing with other dogs and having lots of fun so we weren’t worried about her while we were away. We will definitely be using Tariq’s services again and do strongly recommend!”


“We were very happy with Nick taking care of Molly. She unexpectedly needed to take medication during her stay with Nick and he seemed to have no problem with that. He kept us updated and provided pictures. We will probably use Nick again in the near future!”


“Elisabeth was absolutely amazing! Leaving my Great Dane, Blueberry, for the weekend was so hard, but she made the entire experience so much easier for both of us. From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell how much care and compassion she puts into what she does. She treated Blueberry like he was her own, which is no small task because he’s not the easiest dog to handle. Elisabeth kept me updated with the pictures and videos that made me feel continually comforted while I was missing him. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Blueberry’s happiness and comfort, which gave me so much peace of mind during my separation anxiety. What truly stood out was her extraordinary level of care. When Blueberry got up in the middle of the night, Elisabeth didn’t just leave him on his own—she went out to the couch and slept with him to make sure he felt secure. That thoughtful, empathetic gesture is more than I ever could have expected. I couldn’t be more grateful for Elisabeth and everything she did for Blueberry and me this weekend. She went above and beyond in every way, and I’m so excited for the chance to work with her again in the future. Thank you so much again Elisabeth!”


“Adriene was fabulous! My cockapoo seemed very comfortable and at ease. Adriene sent multiple daily updates and photos. She was very flexible. This was my first time using Rover in the area and she made the experience seamless. Will definitely be using her again!”


“Joseph kept us updated on how our dog was doing while we were away with tons of adorable photos and videos, making it clear he was having a blast. We could tell our pup was getting all the exercise he needed, thanks to Joseph's commitment to regular walks and playtime at the dog park. It was such a relief knowing our dog was in great hands!”


“Jenning was communicative, responsible, and sent regular updates (including the cutest photos). I came home to a happy, calm pup who had clearly been well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jenning again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind dog sitter!”


“Alberta was amazing with our senior dog! She sent pictures and updates and has excellent communication. I could tell she paid close attention to our dogs moods and needs during her stay. I really appreciate Alberta and highly recommend her!”


“Sara is the best! She is kind, fun, and loving! Mina loves to be at Sara's house as she never cries to leave once left at Sara's home. She also loves Sara's dog, Penny. It is heartwarming to see how they play together. I know Sara takes good care of Mina as she communicates with me on a regular basis as to how Mina responds to her care. We have a good working relationship and Mina clearly loves to be with Sara and her family! Can't wait until the next visit! I know I can count on Sara to treat Mina as her own.”


About: I’ve had dogs my entire life! I love dogs so much and am excited to get to know yours. I have experience with dogs ranging from puppies to seniors. We aim to walk about two miles a day and would love for your pup to join us! Dogs are allowed on couches and on the bed here. I have experience with different types of needs - food motivation, diapers, medicine, etc. Let me know what your pet needs to feel at home! I work from home five days a week. My dogs need frequent care, so I can provide frequent care for yours as well! Dogs are embedded into my weekly routine. I have a (soon to be fenced in) yard that my dogs often explore. We have walking paths around the neighborhood we use just about every day! We have a spacious home and plenty of room for another friend :)

“Meredith and Nathan (Bailey & Winston) were amazing hosts! I could tell my pups were spoiled rotten and given all the love and care that we would have given them. They gave us plenty of pupdates and pics of the pups every day. They were super accommodating to our travel delay and enjoyed a few extra hours with the pups. We loved that they had a fenced In yard and judging by the pictures, plenty of beds (both dog and human) and cozy spots to snooze. We would absolutely let Meredith and Nathan watch our pups the next time we need a dog sitter!”


“I can't say enough good things about Ashley! She was absolutely fantastic with Kodak. From the moment I met her, I could tell she was genuine and caring, and that definitely showed in the way she took care of him. Kodak was clearly happy and well-cared for, and I received updates with pictures, which put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”
