“Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Jae is very caring and compassionate, which was especially nice for Martini who has severe separation anxiety. Jae was able to understand Martini and attended to her needs in a way not many sitters are able to. When I picked her up she was calm and resting which was a rare sight to see as she is usually stressed when I pick her up. Would definitely recommend Jae as a sitter!!”


“Paulette has become my baby dog's second home whenever I need to travel. I always come back to a happy dog who had a lot of fun - and he is excited to go back every time! Paulette cares, keeps me updated with daily pictures, and is very communicative all of which I appreciate. Overall, highly recommend.”

“I’m so glad Eva was there to board my frenchie, bambi- she put effort into making sure Bambi was comfortable and cared for during her stay and sent regular updates! Very kind person and has had a lot of experience caring for animals - will be reaching out again in the future”

“Hassandra took excellent care of our older Pomeranians. She was attentive, gave them their medication every day, and sent daily pictures. Our dogs came home happy and healthy. Would recommend Hassandra!”

“Caroline took SUCH great care of my aging little guy. He has a bunch of quirks and almost always after we leave him, no matter what, he's a bit worse for wear when he breaks out of his routine and we're away. Somehow, he seems even healthier than when we left him, and we hope to book with Caroline again!”


About: I’ve grown up caring for animals and have had a golden retriever for 12 years, as well as a cat that I cared for over 7 years. I’ve also fostered cats and kittens through shelters and rescue organizations, which has given me experience with animals of different ages, temperaments, and needs. I’m very comfortable with feeding, playtime, litter care, walking, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m currently in my last semester of nursing school, so my schedule is pretty flexible and open, depending on the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I make sure to plan my time so I can give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m reliable and communicative, and I’ll always keep you updated while you’re away. I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their environment. I follow any specific routines or instructions closely, including feeding schedules and preferences. I have experience with both dogs and cats of different temperaments, including fostering kittens, so I’m very patient and attentive. I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel loved and secure while you’re away.
“Cheryl is so kind and a true animal lover! My dog, Mocha, can be a little shy and Cheryl made her feel right at home. She provided great video updates throughout Mocha’s stay and it was so nice to see her so happy and cozy! Cheryl clearly loves all animals and I felt like Mocha was in great hands. Would definitely rebook and definitely recommend. Thank you so much, Cheryl!”


“Fantastic Sitter! She's considerate, kind, and a genuine person. She legit drove me home after I dropped off my cat. I can tell my cat was cared for and loved while I was out of town. Highly recommend!!!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for them at all different ages. My family adopted a Poodle and Havanese mix from the humane society when I was 9, and we’ve had them ever since. My Havanese mix is now 13 years old, so I’m very comfortable caring for senior dogs and understand that they may need a little extra patience, attention, and care. My family also recently got a Pug puppy, so I’ve gotten plenty of experience with the energy and supervision that comes with having a puppy! I really enjoy spending time with dogs and getting to know their individual personalities. Whether your dog loves playing and going on walks or prefers relaxing and getting lots of cuddles, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they need while you’re away. I’m currently nursing student but love going on walks in my free time so I would love to take your pups with me! I am available before 2pm on Monday, after 2pm on Tuesday, and all day on Thursday and the weekend. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood with plenty of green, enclosed spaces that are great for walks and letting dogs get some fresh air and exercise. I’m always mindful of keeping pets secure, especially when walking them, and I make sure they’re supervised and comfortable at all times. When caring for a pet in their home, I’m respectful of their space and stick to their usual routines as much as possible. I know that every pet is different, so I’m happy to follow any specific instructions from their owner regarding feeding, walks, medications, or anything else they may need. My goal is to make sure both the pet and their owner feel comfortable and confident while they’re apart.
“Basil had an amazing stay with Cloey! She sent multiple hike photos from their adventures while hanging together and he was super content/pooped when I picked him up. Also, Cloey was super accommodating with my late PM drop-off and pick-up times which I really appreciated. Highly recommend!”
“Ariel is an extremely thoughtful and communicative dogsitter. From the start she asked thoughtful questions about Ollie and his typical habits. She took great care of him and sent updates along the way. Ollie was sad to part from her after just one day. He's looking forward to seeing her again soon!”

“Antoinette is AMAZING! This was my first dog boarding experience and I was honestly very scared to leave Mavic. We met her before the drop off and my puppy instantly fell in love with her. Antoinette did a great job by giving me constant updates and pictures. She even helped me train Mavic and gave me tips for the future. She helped getting pee pads when we ran out and even bought him treats for teething. I would 100% recommend her, she is great!”

“Anna and Patrick have watched our dog Ollie a few times and have really gone above and beyond. They take him on long works and even bring him to the office. We get lots of photos and videos and know he is in good, loving hands while we are away. Highly recommend them!”

“Nicole was amazing!! As someone who’s never used Rover before, she has blown us away with her love and care for our dog. She was extremely communicative and sent photos and videos daily!”

“Riley stayed with Nikki & Chris for 5 nights and now she is depressed being back home with us! Haha. Riley and Taxi became best friends quickly and shared so much play time and kisses, and Nikki & Chris sent us videos and pictures documenting all those good times. Our go-to sitter was unavailable so it was our first time having Nikki&Chris take care of Riley, and I can’t be happier! We’ll likely use their services again because Riley and Taxi surely miss each other already!”

“Chandni and her partner Issac were fantastic to our cat Olivia and I cannot recommend them enough!! We boarded at their place for a little over a week because we were hosting some family in our small apartment. We got updates with photos and videos of Olivia every few hours which was so helpful, and they even got her some new toys! We really appreciate Chandni and Issac for taking care of Olivia like their own. Thank you again!!”

“My first time using Rover and boarding my Golden Retriever, Apollo, with Morgan. It was an incredible experience. From Morgan’s daily updates with photos to her location, flexibility and beautiful pup, Roo. Apollo had the best time and will definitely be back next time we travel.”


“Cameron was great with Nash! Drop off and pick up was easy and our dog is very tired after spending 2 days with her. We were passing through town and dropped our dog with Cameron so we could all enjoy our time in the city and it worked out perfectly, I would definitely recommend for anyone else doing something similar.”

“Jennifer was wonderful with Oscar my 7lb Morkie! From our first meet-and-greet, she was kind, gentle, and immediately put me at ease. Oscar recently spent the day with her, and she took great care of him. He's still getting used to her home, but he's already becoming more comfortable. I'll definitely be booking with Jennifer again and know they'll continue to build a great bond.”

“Shishi was amazing with my shy dog, Pete! She was patient with him as he settled in and sent lots of picture updates that made me feel at ease. I also appreciated her flexibility with pickup and drop off timing. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and communicative sitter!”

My first time leaving Ocean with a Stranger but with Matthew I felt reassured and I was. I got updated pictures and messages periodically. Matthew is wonderful with dogs period and is a great person. Definitely will use his services again and definitely highly recommend his services.

Gabriela and Patrick were AMAZING!!!!! They were very informative about my dog’s behavior, sent tons of pictures daily, super friendly and down to earth! They were very welcoming in having a meet and greet beforehand. Their apartment was super clean and pet ready. On the last day, my dog left their apartment, walked down the hall halfway, stopped and ran back to their apartment! She didn’t want to leave Gabriela and Patrick. They had to escort us out of the building. Have Gabriela and Patrick watch your pet. They took care of my dog with true love and care. I will definitely recommend them and use them again when needed. They made me feel at east during my trip and made my heart smile. 😊 THANK YOU! 🥰🥰🥰

Jae Hoon was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING with Bella. She was very well exercised and spoiled with love during her 3 weeks stay. Jae Hoon went out of his way to make Bella feel welcomed and at home, we loved all the pictures that were shared and Bella had the most wonderful time!!

Cassandra was amazing! We’re definitely nervous dog parents, but we felt completely comfortable leaving her with Cassandra. She was reliable and kept us updated throughout our trip with photos on the Rover app, which gave us so much peace of mind. We also visited Cassandra’s home for a meet & greet beforehand, and it’s such a great environment for dogs, with lots of grass nearby and a very dog-friendly neighborhood. Boxelle was so happy and relaxed when we picked her up. You can really tell how much Cassandra loves and cares for her animals, and we felt like Boxelle was in wonderful hands. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!

Paulette took amazing care of my 3 year old pup after we had to find a sitter for a last minute trip. She was super easy to communicate with & sent regular pictures (that were also amazing snaps of him). I really appreciated her care & concern throughout the whole process, which showed the kind of professionalism you want when leaving your fur baby with someone new!

Jayne & Rowan are fantastic — they’re thorough, caring, responsive, and clearly understand dogs’ needs very well. Our Rusty pup can be nervous in new places, and he’s stayed with them a couple times now — and has come home a happy, tired pup! I think he also finds the company of their pups comforting. Thanks, Jayne & Rowan!

Chris and Nikki were absolutely wonderful with Chutney! They were super communicative throughout our entire trip, sending regular updates that gave us total peace of mind. Chutney had the absolute best time playing with Taxi and the other dogs, and it made our vacation so much more relaxing knowing he was having just as great of a time as we were. We couldn't have asked for better sitters and would book them again in a heartbeat!

Kona had such a great stay with Alli and her Beagle Lucy! Alli was amazing from start to finish and sent so many pictures and video updates throughout the three days. She was so sweet with Kona, and it was clear how much Alli genuinely cared for her and made sure she was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Her communication was perfect and she is truly everything you could want in a sitter. I felt completely at ease knowing Kona was in such good hands. We will definitely be using Alli again!

Monica & Alejandro were fantastic sitters. They were very attentive and provided many updates throughout Olivia’s stay. They were engaged with her and even took her to the park for hours! I would definitely recommend them and would absolutely book with them again in the future.

Yuan has been a consistent in our life for over 6 years. She has always taken amazing care of my pup Champ. He is always so excited to see her and doesn’t even look back at drop off time and as a dog mom that eases my stress knowing he is happy. Yuan makes sure to update us throughout the day and is quick to contact us with any concerns. I could not have asked for a better sitter.
Amanda was so amazing with my dog, Minnie! The first time we met her Minnie ran down the sidewalk straight to her like an old friend. Amanda was very friendly, flexible, and warm, and treated Minnie like her own. She welcomed all Minnie’s (sometimes annoying) quirks and even slept in bed with her. I can’t recommend her enough!
