“Alex took great care of my dog! He responded quickly to messages and made the entire process so easy. 10/10 would recommend boarding your baby with him!”


“My Chloe’s 2nd stay with Shauna and Pompilio - this time for 4 days/3 nights. They took really good care of her, stayed on feeding and medication schedule, lots of love and attention, and plenty of updates. When chloe and I were driving back home she started crying and looking out the window for them. They are amazing small dog sitters and I will definitely be using them again.”


“To anyone looking for an amazing sitter, look no further! Robin & Rahn have been a godsend, and I’m so happy I found them to watch my little buddy anytime I’m out of town. Before I found them, I didn’t have anyone I really trusted to watch him. I always get a morning update then an evening update with TONS of photos and videos. They have a nice backyard that Finn is obsessed with and he always comes back so happy Please consider Robin and Rahn the next time you need someone to watch your fur child 😊”


“Michael was so amazing taking care of my corgi puppy! He was so responsive and very good at communication. I will most definitely be using him again and can’t thank him enough for taking care of my pup as his own!”


“Alyssa was terrific. She kept me updated with photos and stories of Stella. I didn't worry about her the entire time as they always kept me informed on her daily multiple walks and potty breaks. Stella slept-in this morning, so I would say they really wore her out. Thank you for taking such good care of her.”


“Casey took such good such off my pup! It was my first time leaving him and I was nervous but she was so nice about sending detailed updates. She even got him a Christmas gift! It was so sweet, would definitely recommend!”


“Moi had a great time and Christina kept us updated with Moi's goings on. He made some new good friends and will Christina in the future if Moi needs a place to stay. Thank you for taking care of our little beagle buddy!”


“Saeko was wonderful to our baby! She took the best care of her, let me know daily what they did together and was so amazing and flexible! Gracie had a wonderful time and loved her stay, she came home very happy”


“10/10!!! Compared to my first experience with another Rover pet sitter, Yantian was so much better! He was very friendly during our first meetup and immediately made us feel comfortable leaving Churro with him. Throughout the day, he sent plenty of updates, which gave us peace of mind knowing Churro was having a great time. Yantian also followed all of our instructions, which we really appreciated. He was very flexible with our schedule and kindly accommodated our preferred pick-up time. Thank you, Yantian! We’ll definitely be booking with you again soon.”


About: After growing up with dogs for 20 years, (Labs, 2 sets of Boxers over the years), I knew both the joy of dogs and the pain of saying good-bye. I've always jumped at the chance to take in neighbors' dogs when they were on trips, but hadn't taken the plunge of owning a dog myself because I traveled often (and in pre-rover-days, couldn't imagine leaning on friends and neighbors as often as I would have needed to for pet care. Covid and a move to San Diego changed all that, and so I got Lucy. Having now experienced the puppy to near-adult phases of dog-hood again, I'm loving it and ready to help out neighbors in need of safe, fun, and reliable pup-sitting. I work from home, so I can take care of pets throughout the day. Typical mornings start at 7a with bathroom, food and walks. After that, we might have some porch time to watch the world go by on a fenced off front porch. Afternoons involve either a walk, or a trip to the dog park to get out some energy. Dinners usually around 5-6, and evenings end around 10-11, with bathroom breaks and bed. My ideal situation is to have our dogs meet prior to sitting to ensure a good understanding of needs (yours and your dogs') and that our dogs get along. I have a fenced yard, and fenced front porch as well. Lucy is my constant companion - she is a 1.5 year old Labrador Retriever. She's very energetic and playful and gets along with pretty much every dog / human. My ideal situation is having her make "friends" who keep her happy and playful, and ensuring there is plenty of safe space to let dogs be dogs.

“Linda Jean is everything you could hope for in a Rover sitter. She took wonderful care of Lucy and gave detailed updates along with photos. Lucy was happy and comfortable when we picked her up. We’d love to have Linda Jean sit for us again.”


“Every time I get my puppy back he is always exhausted from all the adventures he has with Mariana! I definitely would recommend if you have a puppy or any kind of dog. She treats him like her own!”


“Lena is the best! Can’t thank her enough for giving Jax the best care while I was out. Lena was attentive, responsive and communicative. I’m so grateful and would appreciate her watching Jax again.”


“Sophie had the absolute best time with Sarah and Taylor and their pup Mango! They sent so many fun updates and I rested easy knowing she was in good hands. I think my dog might have had more fun on “vacation” than I did! We will definitely be back to play 🐾”


“Arthur was great with our big girl! He has a nice outdoor space and gave Chloe lots of cuddles and love during her stay.”


“Sarah was amazing! She was very accommodating with timing, had fast communication and looked after my pup with great care! Thank you so much!!”

“Maya enjoyed her stay once again! Thanks for taking such great care of her and sending fun updates of her day while we were out of town. She can’t wait for her next visit!”


“Shana was patient with Aeko settling in on the first night. She sent a lot of videos and pictures which were great to see while we were out of town. We could tell he was happy and having fun. We felt very comfortable and reassured with Shana as Aeko’s sitter and will definitely book with her in the future.”


“Rosanna was wonderful with my pup and I would highly recommend her! She took such great care of my dog...taking her on long walks, to the dog park, and even the beach. My pup loved her time with Rosanna, and I loved the pictures and detailed updates I received each day. Rosanna was also very flexible with drop off/pick up times. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter.”


“Stephen was able to take our crazy Shepsky last minute for an emergency and was a huge lifesaver. She definitely had some fun adventures and would definitely recommend him for any sitting needs!”

10. James G.
“Jim is responsible, patient and fun loving dog owner. Watching Jim with his Labrador Lucy is like witnessing a bond built on pure love and mutual trust. Whether it's making sure she gets her favorite treat after a long walk, playing fetch or teaching her a new trick, Jim’s attentiveness never wavers. When Jim walks through the door, Lucy always greets him with a tail wag, eager to play. Dog owners can rest assured that Jim will provide the same wonderful care to their dog in a safe and fun environment while he or she is away from home. Any dog would be lucky to have someone like Jim in their life.”
