“Holly and Robert took excellent care of my boy at doggy day care. They provided updates and have an obvious love and passion for caring for dogs. I appreciated their knowledge of dog behavior and understanding of when it is appropriate to intervene. Ziggy came home absolutely pooped, so I know he had a great day with them. I will absolutely be reaching out to them again for any future pup care needs!”


“Brittany was cheerful and friendly, and seemed to enjoy caring for my dogs. She was also responsive in letting me know how they were doing and what was going on. I’ll definitely use her again hen I need a dog sitter.”


“J Sue is a little melancholy by nature but she loves the days she gets to spend at Sam’s. As we get close to Sam’s, Jessie’s enthusiasm goes from about 20% to 100% from the time we turn on the street to time we get to the front door. A day at Sam’s can lift Jessie’s mood for days.”


“Kimberly was easy to book a Meet and Greet and also my Doggy Day Care. Going back to the office more, I felt bad leaving Sadie home all day by herself, so I figured a play day every now and then help. But I was worried, because Sadie has lots of energy and just wants to play when she's with other dogs. Kimberly made me feel very comfortable letting Sadie stay with her. My Sadie must have played hard with her Ridgebacks because she was exhausted when I got her home. She only got up to eat and back to sleep. Haha. Just what I wanted. Kimberly even gave her a homemade doggie popsicle, which she seemed to love. I would definitely book again. Thanks Kimberly!”


“James has been awesome with foster George (AKA Houdini) who has been on the euthanasia list 3 times. . . and his next time will be his last. George is the sweetest dog ever but his escapism has been problematic. James has been his life saver while I am at work, and has provided George playmates and activity throughout the day. James is DEFINITELY worth considering if you need care for your dog. . . (Just don't steal George's spot. . . We need James.)”


“Melissa was really easy to communicate with, checked in with me throughout the day with photos and info on how they were doing. Felt very safe with them in her care.”


“This was my first time using Rover and was in a pinch to get a sitter in about 12 hours. Mike responded right away and saved the day. He was super friendly and willing to take Marlin for a long day which I cannot thank him enough for. Marlin came home happy and tuckered out - so happy to have him play with other dogs!! Cannot recommend Mike enough - definitely will book again!!”


“Christina is so good for my pup! My dog has grown comfortable with her already. Christina also communicates well with me and I appreciate all of her service.”


“Esperita is perfect for my dog Molly! Molly is a Tijuana Rescue Cockapoo so she can be wary of new people and places and needs understanding and patience. Esperita took the time Molly needs and now they are fast friends! I am so lucky to have found her! I will be a regular user!!!”


“Onrae agreed to watch my dogs on short notice. He was extremely flexible and good at communicating throughout their stay with him. They were both happy to see him again the next time they went!”

We received updates and photos throughout the day which was great as well. He has a real passion for dogs and is a caring & trustworthy person. Thanks again!”

About: Here’s a polished but genuine way to describe your pet care experience: I’ve been caring for animals for over a decade. I’ve had pets of my own since I was 8 years old, including dogs/cats, small animals, and lizards which taught me the importance of patience, routine, and compassion. I’ve also regularly helped friends and family with their pets, providing everything from daily walks and feedings to overnight care. These experiences have helped me build a strong understanding of different pet personalities and needs. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family—with love, attention, and respect. I’m currently a full time nursing student but I still have time to care for your loving pets. Whether that be in between classes or evenings I am fully devoted to making sure each pet gets the attention and consistency they deserve. I like to maintain their usual routine as closely as possible and any special instructions from their owner. I provide a clean, pet friendly environment where they can lead and I always supervise interactions if other animals are around. There is also a field where I stay, where the dogs can run around freely on.

“If I could give Corinne 100 stars I would!! She was so gentsl with my dog. She also send me updates, photos and videos throughout the stay. Her 2 dogs are the cutest and played with dog. Corinne is 1 in a million and I highly recommend!!”

About: I'm a retired veteran. I'm trustworthy and passionate about animals. I've had dogs in my life since I was a child. I have a granddog who stops by now and again. I love dogs and promise to treat your dog as my my own. My husband and I are both retired military so we are able to cater to your schedule and to your dogs needs. I'm happy to administer medication if needed. We have a large fenced in back yard with a playground mulch base, shade sails and a covered patio. I have a kiddie pool I use on occasion for our dogs. Inside is air-conditioned and we have plenty of dog friendly couch seating in the living room.

About: Welcome to personalized care for your beloved furry friends! As a dedicated dog sitter (or cats,bunny,guinea pigs, birds, you name it!) I offer more than just sitting; I provide a tail-wagging experience filled with love, attention, and playful adventures. With a keen eye for each pup's needs and a passion for creating a safe and joyful environment. I'll ensure your dog feels right at home when you can't be there.

I am currently a stay at home mommy to my son (3 years old) and to our 3 bundles of joy. I love animals so much. They are more than just a pet or an animal, they are family. I will take care of yours with soft and gentle arms, as if they were my own. I do not professionally train, although both of my dogs are very good at what I have taught, (tricks and such). I also have no problems administering medications. I want to provide you a stress free getaway while know your babies are safe and sound. I will always send daily photos and/or videos of how your babies are adjusting to their stay. Our household is me, my fiance, our son and our three dogs. All of which will care for your babies just as much. I love that Rover allows us to provide personable stays to allow 1x1 tailored time with your pet that eases a lot of stress for everyone. I own an at home dog grooming kit which includes a dog vacuum that combs them while taking out the excess fur. Let me know if you need any deshedding services! My availability is totally available everyday! I work from home so I’m here on call for sure! If you are in need of drop-in visits, my fiance does come along for meet and greets and occasional visits as well. In both my home and my client's homes, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and enriching environment for pets. This includes maintaining a consistent feeding and exercise schedule tailored to each pets needs. I ensure plenty of playtime and mental stimulation through interactive toys and games. Additionally, I maintain cleanliness by regularly cleaning feeding areas, litter boxes, and any pet messes promptly. Above all, I provide affectionate companionship and attentive care to make sure pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away.
