Chaz had another lovely stay with Rosediane. He had a great time! He was very happy to see her when we got to her house. She sent updates and pictures every day! Chaz has stayed with her a few times since 2023 and I always feel comfortable leaving him with Rosediane because I know he’s well cared for by her!

Maple enjoyed her stay. She was happy when we picked her up and seemed unbothered by being left with a sitter. This was a good sign that she enjoyed her stay. Communication throughout her visit was great. thanks you for the tlc you gave Maple.

We’ve had our dog Theo stay with Rosediane a couple times and we are so happy with how well taken care of he is! We were comfortable leaving him for a full week while we travelled internationally! We always receive photos and updates of their adventures. Rosediane allows him to lounge in the backyard as much as he pleases, which is so nice for him! It’s a little puppy vacation for him. We will definitely be reaching out again for our next trip!!

Our dog had a great time! She came home happy and well-loved. We received many updates and pictures, and could see she was very well cared for with Rosediane and her family. Will book again!

Sandy, age 15, was very well cared for by Rosediane! She took her for walks; kept me updated and sent pictures. Sandy came home happy and stress free! I would definately recommend!

Chaz just had another long stay with Rosediane. Rosediane sent pictures and updates each day. Chaz is now 13 and has been staying with Rosediane since he was 11. With a senior dog it’s easy to worry about someone else caring for your baby but with Rosediane we never have to worry! I would highly recommend Rosediane as a dog sitter for any pet parent who wants to ensure their baby gets quality, personalized care.

I like all dogs -- especially smaller dogs that don't bark too much and are friendly and good on their leash. Big dogs are fun -- but, they have to be able to walk (not pull too hard) on their leash. If dogs like dog parks we have a great one near-by. I like a dog that loves car rides, too. I am currently accepting only friendly dogs who are socialized and get along with other dogs.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
