“Cece was just perfect. We had a last minute invitation and I called her on the day we had to leave and she jumped right in and saved the day. Cece called me as she was getting ready for work and assured me not to worry that she would be happy to doggie sit for us. We left early that morning and Cece came to our house on her lunch break to meet Frida. We had a wonderful weekend knowing that our pet was well taken care of. I look forward to meeting Cece the next time we go out of town, hopefully soon!”
“Kira was great with our puppy and two cats. She stayed at the house for 3 nights while we were away and was very clean and courteous. She asked great questions, and sent pictures too. We would love to have her back in the future.”
“Dahn was wonderful with our dog Levon! We went away for about 4 nights. Dahn was excellent at contacting us and sharing pictures with Levon. She was so attentive with him, catering to his every need. Dahn is kind and loving and it comes through tenfold with the animals she takes care of. This was the first time anyone has stayed overnight with Levon and Dahn allowed me to completely relax, knowing he was in such capable hands. If you're trying to find your next dog sitter/dog walker, look no further!!”
“She stayed at my house and took care of my dog she did a fantastic job! I am so pleased with her! She made sure she didn’t leave a mess in my house and took pictures of the dog all the time it was great I am so pleased I would definitely use her again”
“Camila took great care of our dog, Waffles, giving him plenty of walks and capturing adorable photos of him. Camila was also very flexible, extending her sitting service by an extra day when our flight changed. Highly recommend her for anyone needing a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
About: I've had 4 years experience with my own puppy! I am very happy to be around dogs of any size and can make all dogs feel comfortable as well as well adjusted to me. I will make sure your puppy gets the best experience I will be taking 2 college classes as well as working at a hospital per diem so in my off time between the two I will be able to take care of dogs. Weekends are best for me! I will make sure to follow any rules you provide and use my best judgement in order to help you and your puppy feel safe while you're away!
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received while we were away! Tiffany went above and beyond to make sure our pup was safe, happy, and well-loved. From regular updates and adorable photos to thoughtful little details like sticking to our dog’s routine and giving extra snuggles, everything was handled with professionalism and heart. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring hands. We came home to a relaxed, happy dog—and a clean, well-tended home. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Tiffany and will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and genuinely kind sitter.”
“We had to leave our goldendoodle for three days while out of state. She had not been left alone since being boarded at our vet 4 years ago, so we had concerns. Heather was wonderful! She came to our house twice before we left to learn our dog's habits and become familiar with her. Heather stayed at our home during our time away. She followed our dog's schedule to perfection (feeding time, potty time, nap time, bed time, play time, etc.). The day after our return, our dog was looking around for Heather. Heather also updated us regularly, including photos. I would recommend her highly, and hope to use her again.”
“Alex did a great job, staying with Meir for a full week. He kept us updated every day and sent photos. Alex is a nice, responsible guy and we thank him very much for his wonderful job. Thank you Alex!”
About: I am highly reliable and flexible. I create genuine bonds with furry friends, and make sure they are well taken care of in your absence. I have provided in home pet sitting, drop by, and walking services. I work full-time and have a flexible schedule. Depending on day and timing, I can fit pet care into my schedule with ease. I would prefer more notice (a week or more) if possible but also have the flexibility to accept last minute asks. I understand things happen out of our control especially emergencies so I accommodate when I can. In a clients home I care for pets by doing feedings, giving daily vitamins, medications, etc. I give lots of cuddles, carve out play time, and take on walks. I’ve pet sit for highly active dogs, as well as low activity and I’ll dogs. For caring for the house, I take in mail/packages and provide cleaning (leaving the space in the condition it was in).
“Ali was great! Having to deal with a very skittish dog, that is afraid of almost everything and especially quick movements and loud noises, Ali took the task and before we knew it, my dog Jinx was sleeping with her and would come when called. I suggested using a lead on Jinx in the "honeymoon phase", just in case Jinx decided to hide under the bed and not come out, but that didn't happen. Jinx took her time and hid for a few hours, before approaching Ali, who was very patient. I highly recommend Ali, but now I'm afraid that I won't be able to put her on the books for the future, she is "that" special.”
About: as a past general manager, I always treat each pet and home with the highest level of care and respect. I’ll follow your routines closely, update you with photos, and make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well-exercised while you’re away. You can count on me to be on time, communicative, and gentle with your pet every visit. I’m available full-time Monday through Friday for daily dog walks and drop-in visits. I recently transitioned out of a management role to focus on pet care, and I’m excited to dedicate my days to keeping your pets happy and active while you’re away. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was 12. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets with love and consistency. I’m calm, reliable, and great with high-energy or shy dogs. I also have experience giving oral medications, following feeding routines, and handling senior pets with extra care.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since i was a little girl. Friends and family have always relied on me to walk, feed and watch out for their pups while on vacation or out of town. I’ve worked at a doggy daycare for almost 5 years and learned so much about dogs that i can say i am excited to care and love your pups as if they are my own! I recently had quit my job to travel with my dog Tripp, so i’m not currently working so i have all the time in the world to watch after your pups! I have a fenced in yard with one friendly pup who’s ready to play if at my home. In a clients home i would make sure the pup is comfortable in the crate and make sure the yard is fenced in and use a lead if not to let them outside.
About: I'm a fully remote worker with lots of schedule flexibility to spoil my furkid pack rotten. I've raised dogs of all ages since I was a teenager and have a lots of experience with fosters, administering medication, post surgical care and even grooming long & short hair breeds. My dogs exercise with me during my morning jogs. Being a fully remote worker allows me to take plenty of breaks for walks and frolicking in the backyard. During warmer months, the dogs will spend lots of time working with me from my outdoor office on the deck. Since this is a multi-dog house, proof of vaccinations is required for doggy day care and boarding. Kindly provide latest records for rabies, bordetella (kennel cough), & DHPP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus). Flea, tick and heartworm treatment is also highly recommended if you would like your dogs exercised outdoors. Otherwise, they can play in my fully fenced yard. My 4 small dogs are well socialized, love meeting new friends and most importantly, current on all shots. Two are more shy and love napping. The other two love to play all day. You can also book me for grooming, playdates, house-sitting, group walks or solo walks.
About: I truly believe I was born to be a caretaker. I am kind, compassionate, nurturing, loving, and always attentive to and respectful of a pet's individual needs—whether it's playtime, downtime, or sticking to their routine/schedule. I see and treat pets as kids who view us as their whole world, so I love to care for and involve them in my day-to-day life in return! The past 4 years, I co-parented two amazing black cats, King (Bombay, 8) and Nylah (Burmese, 5). Their individual personalities and quirks always bring me so much joy as a cat mom. They love playing, cuddling, sunbathing, being involved, and even talk back! I treat every pet like family! My sister is a new mom to a pug rescue (Ozzy, 1) who is a cuddle bug and ball of fun. He loves his squeaky toys and going on walks or car rides. Ozzy and I quickly created the most special bond and it’s always so heart warming to be his auntie. My friends (near and far) often rely on me to watch their cats and dogs when they go away and love how I send tons of picture updates of their fur babies! I also have stopped by the local animal rescue to give extra love and attention to those that need it. Growing up, I helped care for our two family pets, Yukon (husky, 15) and Kieta (tabby cat, 18), who both lived long, happy lives. My childhood neighbors also owned a farm with tons of animals to hangout with. I have been around animals for as long as I remember and it always brings so much joy and purpose into my life! My WFH schedule is currently very flexible so I can easily be called on to come to your pets needs, whether it’s for a walk, playtime, mealtime, or a routine check in! I see pets as fur babies with individual personality types and needs. I carefully read and follow instructions and won’t do anything I’m not asked. I am attentive to their feeding/potty schedule and make sure the environment is pet friendly. I will happily send text, photo, or FaceTime updates and ask any questions as needed.
About: Unfortunately my current apartment doesn’t allow me to have a pet. My prior family dog, the sweetest lab ever recently passed so now I would love to help other owners and to be around other dogs or animals! I work off hours for my patients. I have availability on weekends and mornings before I go in or in the evening before I get out. I am very active and go on walks multiple times per day anyways. If your dog is looking for exercise while you are away, I think I would be a great fit.
About: I understand pets and will give care to them based upon their comfort and provide them care, play, feeding, medication, etc. Whatever to provide a nurturing environment for them while their owner is gone. I am currently an empty nester and would love to spend my free time helping families with their pets while they are away. I have a great deal flexibility as I work remote for my full-time job. I will follow the directions of the homeowner to the letter. I will ensure safety of the pet and the home at all times. I will treat the home and its contents as it is my own. Especially, their beloved fur babies.

kylie s.
“I cannot recommend Kylie enough to take care of your pet! We used to board our two golden retrievers when they were younger, but then as they got older it became difficult for our dogs. We've been using Kylie for over 5 years. She is attentive, loving, punctual, and follows our instructions every step of the way. She even sends us pictures and updates while we are away. When my male started having medical issues, I was very worried about leaving him at all on our last trip. Kylie came and stayed at our home and attended to his every need. Not only taking amazing care of our dogs, but also taking care of our home even when our basement flooded!!! I cannot say enough about Kylie. She is the only one we trust with our dogs.”
Yi Jia F.
“I highly recommend Yi Jia as a dedicated and compassionate pet caregiver. I've observed Yi Jia's interactions with animals, and she consistently demonstrates genuine affection and empathy, reliability and responsibility, attentiveness and observation, excellent communication, and cleanliness and organization. Yi Jia loves animals. She interacts with pets with gentle kindness, patience, and understanding, recognizing their individual needs and personalities. You can see the joy both she and the animals get from her care. Yi Jia is also highly dependable. She follows instructions meticulously, arrives on time, and prioritizes the pet's well-being. She understands the importance of consistent routines and responsible care. She is observant and proactive. If she notices subtle changes in a pet's behavior or health, she will take appropriate action. She is conscious of animals' surroundings and ensures that the animals are safe. Yi Jia communicates clearly and promptly, providing regular updates and addressing any concerns. For instance, my dog was not his usual playful self from her previous encounters with him. She reached out to me to inform me of his behavior and waited for further instructions on what I wanted to do. Additionally, Yi Jia maintains a clean and organized environment for pets, ensuring their comfort and hygiene. This includes cleaning up after the pet, and maintaining a tidy area, which I always appreciate as I tend to be an organized person myself. I am confident that Yi Jia will provide exceptional care for your beloved pet, treating them with the same love and respect she would her own. I trust her with my own pets without hesitation.”

Courtney B.
“Courtney is the only person I trust caring for my cat. She literally speaks their language. He’s an escape artist but can’t get past her!!! She is dependable and THOROUGH!! Spyder will lay in her lap for hours, and she loves on him. Animals are the best judge of character. She has been a second mom to my beloved fur babies for years. If you’re looking for a true caregiver, not just someone to hold a leash or fill up food, then she’s for you. Can’t put a price on piece of mind !!!!”

Milford pet parents share their Rover experiences
Maddy stayed in our house for 4 days with our cat, Star. She was wonderful- communicative, dependable, caring, and trustworthy, providing frequent updates and sending us photos. She took the time to get to know Star and her routine and played with her regularly. Maddy is a true gem. I highly recommend her and will be booking her in the future.
Kellie was fantastic with our Yorkie! She stayed in our home over the weekend and took very good care of our 5 year old teacup Yorkie. Kellie sent us updates and pictures and left our home spotless. We definitely recommend her and will use her again when we are out of town without hesitation.
I'm really glad I booked with Cameron for a few reasons: 1) All the correspondence and pics were forthcoming to ensure a worrier like me that all the care was there. 2) I know the cats were treated really well because even the super shy one came out of his shell by the end of the booking and it was like I was never gone when I returned - no frazzled faces or wide-eyed wonkiness. 3) The place looks exactly as I left it before I went on the trip, there were NO surprises whatsoever. I will definitely be looking to rebook with Cameron in the future for house sittings/cat care, and if you want drama-free, genuine attention, so should you!
Ali took care of our dog in our house for two weeks. She was wonderful with our dog and took great care of our house. We had some issues with unfinished work around the house and she herself had sad family news, but in spite of all of this she was reliable, dependable and had a great attitude. We would most definitely hire her again.
