“Daniela is amazing!! We couldn't be happier. She kept in touch with us throughout our pups extended stay, sending pictures and updates - all of which portrayed that she and her husband were almost in as much love with him as we are :) Being a skeptic, I feel that this is always my hesitation with dog boarding/sitters/kennels - but we are 100% confident that she is the real deal. So thankful - will definitely be booking again.”
“Julianne and Ragen took great care of our pup Georgia, they were flexible and accommodating and get me up date while we were away. We will use them again in the future if we can!”
About: If there's one thing you should know about us, it's that we absolutely LOVE dogs! My husband and I have had dogs in our lives for as long as we can remember, and our home has always been filled with wagging tails, puppy kisses, and lots of love! Now that our kids are grown and out of the house, we're enjoying a little more freedom to travel and have decided to take a little break from having dogs of our own. But we sure do miss having them around! That's what made us think Rover would be such a perfect fit! We get to enjoy having dogs in our home again while giving your pups a fun, loving place to stay while you're away. And trust us, there's no shortage of love and attention around here! ❤️ As longtime dog parents, we know firsthand how hard it can be to leave your furry family member with someone else. We want you to be able to relax and enjoy your time away knowing your pup is safe, happy, and being loved and cared for just like one of our own. Here's what your pup can look forward to at our house! 🐶 🏡 A cozy, clean, dog-friendly home where they'll be treated like family. 🌳 A fully fenced, secure backyard with plenty of room to explore, play, or just enjoy some sunshine. 🛋️ Couch cuddles are always welcome! Dogs are part of the family around here, and they're more than welcome to curl up on the furniture with us. ❤️ Lots of love and attention! Belly rubs, snuggles, playtime, and plenty of affection. 💊 Experienced and attentive care. We're comfortable giving medications and caring for pups who may need a little extra TLC. 📸 Pictures and updates! We know how much you'll miss your pup, so we're happy to keep you updated on all the fun they're having. Every dog has their own personality, and that's part of what makes them so special! Whether your pup loves to run and play, follow us around the house, or spend the afternoon curled up on the couch, we want them to feel completely comfortable and right at home. Our goal is simple: We want your dog to love staying with us just as much as we'll love having them! We may not be ready for another dog of our own just yet, but we have so much love to give in the meantime. We'd be thrilled to welcome your furry family member into our home, give them lots of attention, and make sure they feel loved while you're away. We can't wait to meet your pup, spoil them a little (okay, probably a lot!), and become their favorite home away from home! 🐾❤️ When your pup is staying with us, they’ll rarely be alone! We love having them around and they’ll typically be right alongside us throughout the day. If your pup enjoys going “bye-bye,” and with your permission, we’re happy to bring them along when we can. My office is also dog-friendly, so they can come to work with me and keep me company if the owner allows. For walks and drop-in visits, my schedule is very flexible, which makes it easy for me to work around your pet’s routine and what works best for you. We know how much your pup means to you and how hard it can be to leave them in someone else’s care. We want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re not only being cared for, but genuinely loved while you’re away. Our hope is that they’re excited to come stay with us — and you can leave knowing they’re in a home where they’ll be treated like part of the family. ❤️🐾 We want your pup to feel safe, comfortable and completely at home while they’re with us. ❤️ We have a fully fenced, secure backyard with plenty of room to explore, play and enjoy some fresh air. We’re very active people, so with your approval, we’re always happy to take your pup along for walks, trips to the park, or other little adventures. Of course, we’ll always follow your normal routine and any instructions you provide because we know every dog is different! Most importantly, we know how much trust it takes to leave your pup in someone else’s care. We love sending photos and videos throughout their stay so you can see what they’re up to, how they’re settling in, and most importantly, that they’re happy and having fun. 🐾 Whether we’re caring for your pup in our home or yours, we’ll treat them, your home, and their routine with the same care and respect we would want for our own. Our goal is for you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing your pup is safe, loved, and getting plenty of attention and snuggles!
About: I have had dogs my whole life and each one has had a huge piece of my heart. I will treat your dog like they are a part of my family while they are in my care. I am home most of the time. I typically feed around 7:00 am and 5:30 pm, and this can be adjusted to meet your dogs needs. I do have crates if needed. I also have a large size doggie door that leads into a fenced back yard. I close up the house by 9:00pm after we have had the last potty break for the night. I have a cat, so your dog must be cat friendly. I also have a large male dog that is sweet and gets along with other dogs. Dogs are allowed on my furniture. They can either sleep in a crate, or sleep on their own bed, in my bedroom with me and my dog. I offer a daily walk in my neighborhood, weather permitting. Your dog will be the only dog I host. I only host one family at a time so that I can give your dog and my dog the best experience. Your furry family member will feel happy, safe and secure in my home. I encourage meet and greats, so please contact me to schedule.😊
“Alysse did an excellent job of loving on our dog while we were gone for four nights. It also appears that our dog LOVED having Alyssa’s dog to play with during her time there. If you want your dog to receive a lot of love and enjoy some fellow dog playtime, this is the sitter you want.”
“Absolutely amazing experience with Anyssah! She kept me informed at all time and assured me he was doing well as this was my first time leaving him with someone he didn’t know. She also accommodated to his needs and just made this stay so much easier for us to go through. I will absolutely book her again if needed. Thank you Anyssah!”

“I had a great experience with this sitter! She took wonderful care of my dog during her three-night stay and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I especially appreciated the frequent updates and photos she sent throughout the stay. It was reassuring to see my dog happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog's well-being. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring dog sitter.”
“Laura was absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Gordy! It’s never easy leaving our dog with someone new, but she made us feel completely at ease from the start. She is kind, communicative and is clearly super good with animals! She took Gordy to the dog park and let him play and get some energy out! It’s obvious he had been loved and well looked after while we were away. We really appreciated the updates (with pictures and videos!) and the peace of mind she gave us throughout the stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Laura again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable dog sitter!”

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
89% of sitters in Murphy can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Murphy home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Murphy.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Murphy. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 89% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
You and your Murphy sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
