“I travel fairly often and have used other sitters on Rover as well as private sitters. I have to say Brooke is the only sitter I will ever use again! She's totally on point and is great with my Siberian Husky. If you're looking for the absolute best sitter on Rover Brooke is it!”


“Manessa is fantastic! Henry had a blast spending time with her, and her dog Kip. Very prompt replies and photo updates of adventures throughout the day. Never had a worry that he wasn’t in fantastic care. Would highly recommend anyone in need of boarding to use Manessa! Henry will be back!”


“This is the second time Ollie has stayed with Penny while we were away on a trip. She made sure that we were kept updated with news, photos and videos of Ollie every day. I trust her totally with our fur baby and it is obvious Ollie loves her also. We would highly recommend Penny and will continue to choose Penny any time we need someone to take care of Ollie.”


“Ashton was amazing!! I could tell my dogs got lots of love and they enjoyed their stay. Not only was Ashton available and accommodating for our last-minute request, but he was communicative and put my mind at ease about leaving my big goof balls for the weekend. Will definitely be using Ashton and family again!”


“Katelyn was wonderful! She was very friendly and communicative which put our minds at ease while we were away. Our dog came home exhausted, clean and in good spirits. I know Katelyn and her family provided him with a home away from home which is all we can ask for.”



“If you are anything like us, our fur babies are literally like our children. We travel often, and have boarded our dogs Baxter and Goldie before... never again will I kennel the dogs. I found rover accidentally. Upon looking into it I was thoroughly impressed. Not only were the services more extensive, but the rates were great too. The first person I came across was rebecca. I thought she looked familiar and it turns out, she's my neighbor! Our dogs never have to stay far from home again. Rebecca and her husband Bob are amazing people in general, nevermind the love and attention the pay to the animals. Baxter and Goldie enjoyed their stay. They were excited to come home, but I don't think they would have minded a couple more nights with these dog lovers. Already booked for the 4th of July, and will most definitely be friends for a long time to come. I highly recommend Rebecca if you have a hard time leaving your pets behind. They send pictures and update daily. Over a half a dozen walks in 1 day!! Absolutely amazing. Thank you Rebecca and Bob. You made us leaving our babies behind a lot easier. ❤”


“Kaleigh was absolutely fantastic! She was incredibly friendly and communicative, and it was clear from the photos that our pups were having an amazing time. They were happy and relaxed when we picked them up, which says it all. We’re so glad we found Kaleigh and will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Charlie was well loved and attended to. I know this because it took him almost 3 hours to come sit with me. I think he was sad to leave his new friends. Michelle was kind enough to send daily pictures of Charlie making himself at home. She was perfect for his first time sleepover without mom.”


“Lisa was amazing with my dog Fin. She made not only my dog feel welcome in her home with her pup but also made me feel relaxed by sending multiple photos and videos each day. Fin was exhausted when I picked him up. He certainly misses his new friend. I will absolutely use Lisa from now one to watch my boy.”


“Lauren was great! She treated Rufus like her own puppy and was constantly updating us. She will be our go to Rover and can't thank her enough for treating our dog so well!”


“Nancy is so awesome with my dog. I would recommend her to anyone that needs a pet sitter. Her communication is amazing and my dog just loves her. I look forward to booking with her again soon.”


“Keeley and her husband took such great care of my dog and treated her as one of their own. Lucy had recent CCL surgery and Keeley diligently performed all the PT exercises. We also received so many pictures and updates, it was fantastic!”


“Donnie was excellent! He had to deal with our Covid puppy and we were very impressed. He also gave us many tips on how we could handle some of the issues we were having with our dog. I would definitely recommend him!!”


About: If you’re looking for someone to care for your dogs, you found the right person. My flexibility is vast. I can care for dogs at your house or mine, travel dogs, to dog parks, hiking trails, places to swim, or just cuddle on the couch I have flexibility for multiple visits during the day and multiple trips outside as needed. I am very flexible with caregiving for animals and can adapt to various routine needs for your pets, including overnights. My flexibility allows for multiple visits during the daytime or nighttime. I have a fenced in backyard, my own dog and cat who are fairy friendly with other animals. I live in a safe neighborhood and have reliable transportation as needed.

“Nevaeh was super kind and friendly. I had zero worries and could tell that my baby Miko had a great time while in her care . Thank you for providing awesome care for my baby !”


About: About me: As someone who has grown up surrounded by pets of all kinds, I have had the great opportunity to fall in love with animals and all their unique personalities. Ranging from dogs and cats, to Guinea pigs and bearded dragons, I’ve cared for a variety of pets, and I want each one that comes through that door to feel loved and cared for for the time that they are here. Your pet: I would love to hear about what makes your pet different and unique so that I can make their stay a great one. Where they’ll be staying: I live in an house with a big backyard, with plenty of room for playing. It is unfenced so all furry friends will be carefully supervised. Every pet will have the opportunity to stay in the downstairs part of the home where the temperature is controlled, keeping it cool in the summer and cozy in the winter. Located on a fairly quiet street with some trails nearby, your pup will be able to go on some new adventures while they’re here. Here at my house I have a standard size poodle mix, a bearded dragon, and a Guinea pig. My dog loves spending time with other dogs so he’d be more than happy to get some extra play time with them in if your pup enjoys the company. And they’ll be no contact with the two small exotics so they’re no worries there. Health and Safety: I am able to administer any oral medicines, just let me know when to give it to them! I cannot do injected medication. Should an emergency occur, I am located within a five minute drive of two different emergency vets, so your furry friend will be able to receive care quickly and efficiently should they ever need it. Training: I love training my own dog, and would love to help train yours as well. I can continue any training they’re already going through, or teach them something new! Simply discuss it with me ahead of time and I can see if I can make it happen. Baths: If you want your furry friend squeaky clean on their way home, I’m more than happy to make that happen for you. For a small fee I’ll have your pup shining and smelling great once more! And finally, if there’s anything special your pet needs, please let me know! I want your beloved pet to feel at home and to be content while staying here. I am always free Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, so if you ever need a weekend away from home, I’m here to watch your pet and keep them having fun! If you need a longer boarding time, I can do that, please be aware that your dog will be left unsupervised in their own room for up to 2 hours at a time throughout the weekdays for when I am not home. With a nice big yard, trails nearby, and someone always in watching distance of your pet, you can rest assured that your pet will stay out of trouble while still having fun.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was young. I grew up on a farm with horses, chickens, Turkeys, and dogs. I have rescued and fostered 13 litters of kittens and 3 adult feral cats who have all found homes. I specialize in neonatal kittens and can bottle feed. I have experience with dog training, walking, and pet sitting. I am a responsible owner of two mini schnauzers and live with my husband and Toddler daughter. I can always be reached by cell phone and email if you have any questions or concerns! Looking for some extra income and would love to meet new fur friends! I will make sure your dog is well taken care of and let out per your instructions to prevent any accidents. I usually let dogs out three times a day Every animal will be cared for as if they are my own. With love and respect along with cuddles and treats! Of course within reason.

As always, Robert did a great job with our rescue girl while we were on vacation. She is challenging because of her anxiety which usually leads to tummy troubles. Robert is always calm and patient and works hard trying to keep her relaxed and secure. We are grateful that he has become and safe place for her when we travel for vacations or family obligations. We highly recommend Robert!

This was frankies first time being away from home and we couldn't have asked for a better place for him to be! Keeley and her husband took such good care of Frankie. She took the time to send us updates and pictures everyday throughout the time we were gone which put us at ease immensely knowing he was being well taken care of, happy and healthy. I couldn't recommend keeley and her husband more. We're very grateful knowing Frankie has a loving home to go to in the future when we're away!! Thank you Keeley again for taking such good care of frank while we were away!

Sure! Here’s a polished and brief review you can use: ⸻ Michelle took amazing care of my puppy Scooby for a full week. She kept me updated daily with photos, which really put my mind at ease. Scooby was clearly very comfortable in her home and came back happy and well cared for. Michelle was also super flexible with timing, which made everything even easier. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter. I’ll definitely have Scooby stay with her again in the future!

Amanda was great, she took such good care of Caju, and was flexible about the drop off which was really helpful for us. Amanda and her partner were very friendly, communicative and made sure Caju had a good time while he was there, they have a big fenced yard for the dogs to run around.

Derek was very accommodating for my dog's first "sleepover". He followed instructions perfectly for meal prep and supplenents. Derek also helped socialize my dog with his, with walking and play time. My dog had a great weekend and came home tired and happy! I will definitely book Derek again in the future, and would recommend him to other dog parents as well.
