Alexandra is great with Winnie and very communicative. She understood concerns I had and ensures Winnie gets a good mix of play and rest time. I’m not sure Winnie wants to leave when I come pick her up! She clearly enjoys her time here.

Osvaldo and his family treat my boy like he was their own. He always gets plenty of exercise and play. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with him.

About: I've personally had many dogs of different sizes and energies, including a Border Collie, Boxer, American Bulldog. I have experience in training (reward training). I am capable of basic grooming, including nails. The Tibetan Spaniel listed on my profile is actually my daughter's dog and he is only at my home during college breaks, otherwise, they are in Ohio the rest of the year Think of your dog's stay at my house as a vacation at Grandma's. Your dog will be spoiled to the extent that YOU allow (and maybe a tennsy bit more). 😉 I mostly work from home with occasional short stints in a workplace and a very flexible schedule. I can be home at any time to ensure that dogs can potty, get playtime, etc. I never work on the weekends. I have a half acre of flat, safe, fenced in yard with grass and gardens. My schedule is very flexible and can adapt to your dog's feeding, sleeping and play schedule. I have no issues waking early, etc.

About: Hello! My name is Rachael and I live in Windsor Heights! I’m happy to help take care of your fur babies! I currently own two rescue dogs and a cat (Baloo Galaxy and Amelia)! I’m happy to help with your dog walking and dog boarding needs as I am able! I enjoy running and walking and love exploring new parks. I have a fenced in yard. I currently work from home and my schedule is very flexible! I was raised with dogs and got my own dog after I graduated college in 2009. My second dog was a foster that I found in 2015. Both typically get along well with other dogs after a meet and greet. I look forward to talking to you soon!

Melanie and family were so friendly that my dogs—a 4- and a 12- year-old Havanese—relaxed immediately. Melanie met us in the yard and the dogs trotted away with her without looking back. The dogs were with her for 6 hours and she sent multiple photos and status updates. We would definitely ask Melanie to watch our dogs again!

About: I have been a pet parent for over 15 years. I currently have a 4 year old German shorthair pointer named Draco and a 11 year old cat named Rubeus. Draco is a big goofy lover. Very good with other dogs. We recently lost our older dog and Draco is missing having a buddy to run around with. I am a stay at home mom so I am home most of the day. We are very active with playing in the yard and going for walks. I have a huge fenced in yard and live walking distance to a couple parks. Dogs are free to roam my home and be on furniture. Can kennel overnight if preferred.

I can’t thank Meagan enough for taking care of my Joey today. It was me and my fur babies first dog sitting experience with Rover. Meagan made him feel welcome the minute we walked in the door, reached out and provided updates with pictures during the day, along with helping Joey socialize with dogs in her home. I look forward to rebooking with her the future. thank you so much! Kathy

Kelsey was wonderful with our girl Bonnie! Bonnie is a little anxious at first and has a bit of a loud mouth 😂but Kelsey was patient and had her relaxed and playing/napping in no time. We will absolutely trust her with Bonnie again.

We were so lucky to find michelle! We literally just moved into the neighborhood and knew no one. She was close by and available to watch my furball on late notice. We met in her and Luca adorable apartment and immediately I felt this was a safe comfortable place for Luchia to stay. Michelle is so easy going and super friendly. Her dog Luca is absolutely adorable. Throughout Luchias stay with Michelle I received many pics and updates. My dog takes a while to warm up to new people and other dogs so seeing her snuggled up at michelle’s in the picture really set me at ease. I totally recommend Michelle and will absolutely be using her again

Tiffany and her husband put us at ease and made Jack and I feel very welcome at the meet and greet. Jack is my service companion and I NEVER leave him but I figured he could use a break from me. She is very knowledgeable about dogs and goes far above what she charges. I will bring Jack over again without any worries. Thank You

Taitum did an amazing job watching our puppy Splash! She communicated very well (sending us the cutest picture updates) and was very flexible with our drop-off and pick-up time! A big bonus that Splash and Taitum’s doggy Tommie hit it off and became besties! Would 100% recommend Taitum to watch your fur babies!

Sarah takes great care of Sam when I need a sitter. Sam has separation anxiety so it is important that I find a sitter who works from home and Sarah fits the bill perfectly. She has a huge fenced-in backyard that Sam can roam around in and discover new smells. I highly recommend Sarah!

My puppy enjoys his stay with the sitter ❤️ Very caring and reliable sitter. Harsha was comfortable and well taken care of, and communication was clear throughout. I really appreciated the flexibility and attention to his routine. Would happily be my go to sitter for Harsha.

I've used Kaylie a couple of times. My puppy always comes home happy and well taken care of! In fact, my puppy seems more interested in staying to play than coming home with me, which tells me he enjoyed his time with Kaylie. Kaylie is really responsible, and I feel like I'm leaving my pup in good hands with her. I will continue to book with her as I can.
