“Daniel took great care of our 75 lbs pit bull, Rosie! He is very comfortable with large breed dogs and Rosie loved him. We booked 3 days in a row and will book again!”

“Rhys was the first ever professional pet sitter I’ve ever hired, as I’ve been too afraid in the past to leave my pets with people who aren’t family. He was kind, professional, sent me daily pictures and updates and best of all my sweet girl LOVES him. Torta is usually very shy and cautious with people but warmed to him quickly. Rhys was flexible when I extended my trip as well and it was a huge relief knowing he was caring for her. I will be hiring him again (if he agrees to have us!!!)”

“Carly was amazing with my cat Ollie! I was gone for a week traveling and she made me feel extremely comfortable. She sent great updates and pictures. I highly recommend Carly to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and trustworthy sitter.”

About: I have worked with and/ or owned dogs my entire adult life. I absolutely love all dogs and I have a lot of experience with different personalities. I used to foster for the Humane Society and have fostered a lot of dogs with no prior training, and mama dogs who are nursing their newborn pups. I have trained dogs from puppyhood and I have helped dogs through tough things such as crate training, potty training, confidence building, and leash reactivity. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and anxious dogs. I have a golden retriever named Charlie who loves dogs and has done very well with obedience training! Whether you need someone to hang out with your pup for a couple of hours to break your work day, or you need a regular walker to keep them active, I am here to help! I am available to stay in your home overnight to help with in-home boarding, but I’m not able to bring dogs to my home. I work full time in person but I can come home to your pup as soon as the day ends and spend the evening/night with them I work full time in a high school from 7:45 am- 2:45 pm, but I am typically available weeknights and weekends. I also have a lot of holiday breaks, so I am often available during school breaks. I can work with your pup on anything you need help with. I can help them with kennel training, run around your yard with them, etc. We can talk about what makes you feel best and what your pup likes best. When I’m in your home, I know it’s your dog’s home too and I want them to be safe and comfortable!

About: I've been around dogs my whole life & currently have dachshunds of my own. I grew up with a Lab, so I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets for years, and I treat every dog like they're part of my own family. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I build my schedule around feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and rest. I make sure pets stay on their normal routine as much as possible and get consistent attention throughout the day. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet, and I'll care for them just like I do my own. I’m available for walks, runs, drop-in visits, or trips to the dog park. I’m active, reliable, and happy to match your dog’s energy level whether they love long walks or just extra attention and playtime. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, water, and care during every visit. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities.

About: My husband and I have had dogs our whole life. We are available and responsible. We love to walk and be active. We have a family dog who is friendly and chill. My husband and I work a hybrid schedule so we are home most of the week. We can do morning, lunch time and evening walks, provide a routine and give lots of cuddles to your pet We don’t have a yard but we can take your dog out several times a day. We have one dog who can keep yours company. Also happy to crate as needed
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and grew up in a home where they were truly part of the family. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to care for their furry loved ones while they’re away, and I take that responsibility seriously. I also have a dog of my own, Lev, a 6-year-old male who has taught me a lot about patience, communication, and positive reinforcement training. Because Lev can be leash reactive, I’m very comfortable reading dog body language and handling walks calmly and safely. Through consistent positive reinforcement, we’ve built successful and enjoyable walks together. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I always aim to create a safe, positive, and fun experience for every pup in my care. I currently WFH full-time! Afternoon/evenings between 3-7pm on weekdays are ideal times for walks and visits. Weekends would vary, but I have pretty open availability in general! My own pup gets at least three walks a day—a long walk first thing in the morning and another before bed, plus a midday walk for some relief and fresh air. We often go on other adventures, including the beach and the dog park, but this our typical schedule. Because of this routine, I’m very accustomed to walking during high dog-traffic times and always prioritize safe, attentive handling. I stay aware of our surroundings, read dog body language, and use positive reinforcement to keep walks calm, structured, and enjoyable for every pup.
About: I had my 16 year old dog Dakota since she was a puppy until she passed away earlier this year and I've fostered multiple senior dogs over the last couple of years for Frosted Faces. I only accept small dogs (under 16lbs) for daycare and boarding with a max of 3 dogs at any given time so you can be sure your dog will get dedicated attention and not be overwhelmed. If you need your dog(s) to be the only one in the home please let me know in the request message. If this is your first time using rover you can sign up via https://www.rover.com/sit/melant42759 or use promo code MELANT42759 for $20 off your first booking. I work full time from home and my schedule is pretty flexible - I can take breaks as needed to take care of the dogs. I live in a one bedroom apartment, there is no fenced in yard but the door always remains closed. I wouldn't take any dogs out without their collar and leash on. There is a set of stairs to get up to my apartment (~12 steps), I can carry dogs up and down if needed. The apartment itself is one level and I have doggy stairs to get on the couch as well as a gate to keep them in a carpeted area if they need that for balance or anything.
“Sammy went above and beyond during her drop in visits this week with my kitty while I was out of town. She gave me great updates and she had no issues using an inhaler with Benny for the first time. She went overtime during her last visit when Benny had an accident just when she was about to leave my apartment for the final visit. I really appreciate her willingness to clean him and my apartment up as best as she could and to protect my couches from any unwanted stains until I could return. She was very professional about the accident and didn't complain once for having to stay 30 minutes longer. This is why Sammy is my go to sitter!”

About: Hey there! My name is Natasha and I have been an avid dog lover since I was young. My partner and I both WFH and we have a fully fenced in front and backyard for the pups to play and roam. With my 8+ years of dog care experience, it's my pleasure to make our house your dog's favorite home away from home! A little about me: My first dog was a Christmas gift when I was 16. Despite being on crutches, I learned a lot about dog training and care. Fast forward to 7 years ago, I rescued my border collie and trained her to become a service dog. We go everywhere and do (almost) everything together - including taking care of other dogs! I've also fostered dogs through Amazing Strays and really enjoyed the process of helping them decompress, recalibrate, and feel safe enough to trust and love again. I am also happy to watch your pet(s) at your home as my partner can take care of the gang here at home while I'm away. Whatever works best for you! Either way - your pets will be loved, mentally and physically engaged, and cared for however long you need! I work remote full-time and set my own schedule. Nyla joins me for runs, frisbee sessions at the park, hikes, and fetch 5-6 days a week. After that, it’s all cuddle puddle. We also do some training on our walks for breakfast! We go for a long walk in the morning and evening, with plenty of short breaks throughout the day - or one of the aforementioned activities! Safety is of utmost importance to me. I know many dogs have lots of ways they communicate their boundaries and I keep a close eye for any or all of them your dog may show. We have a fully fenced in front and backyard, a way to divide the two, and live in a residential neighborhood. I work with each pet to learn their comfort level and earn their trust on their terms and timetable. Nyla and our foster are both crate trained so separation is always available if need be!

“Leilani did some drop-ins for our dog Moxie as we were away for the evening for a special event. I loved the reports we got from her with updates and our dog loved her at the meet and great! Will definitely be rebooking.”

“Jade was super responsive and took great care of my pup! When I asked if she was able to watch my dog longer than the original booking, she did not hesitate to say yes. I would definitely use Jade again.”

“Brenda was very patient with my 2 cats, who had never been left alone before. She took care of everything and I was very happy with the service she provided. Will definitely book again if needed.”


About: I have grown up with multiple cats in the home and have also had the privilege of caring for many friends’ dogs! Love them all! Like the rest of us, I too have a busy life. But typically late afternoons, evenings, and weekends work well for me to take care of your pets! Looking forward to it! I am more than happy to come to your home where no doubt your pets are the most comfortable. I appreciate detailed direction so I can provide the exact care you need. I am known to be respectful and trustworthy!

About: Hello! I’ve been a dog owner all my life. This is the first year not owning a dog anymore, but as much as I want another, I figured it’s time to help others take care of their loved pups! I have so much passion and love for animals. I have always been the so called “dog whisperer” in my family. I’ve spent a lot of time dog sitting as well for families I know. I’m excited to get to know other dogs! I work at a restaurant Wednesdays- Sundays for 4 hours a day. I am at home a lot and available majority of my weeks. I go on lots of walks and prioritize being outside, so with this lifestyle, your dog would love me! I have a fenced apartment. I have a dog park down the street and live in a safe neighborhood with lots of grass around. I do not have grass at my apartment, but do around me and on my street. I live with two roommates who are also dog lovers and great people. I treat pets like I do my roommates: with love, care and respect.

I booked Andrea last minute for some drop-ins and Andrea DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! I will definitely book again in the future, she went above and beyond for the kitties and they warmed up to her almost immediately (they don’t really care for people). I appreciated the check-ins followed up with pictures 💚💕 Thank you Andrea!

Jake stepped in at the last minute when our other dog-sitting plans fell through, and we couldn’t have asked for a better fit! One of our dogs can be a handful for sitters, but Jake quickly won him over, and they had a great time together. He sent plenty of pictures and kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’re so grateful for the care he gave our boys and can’t recommend him highly enough!

We absolutely love Brittany!! She’s our go-to for our babies and always takes such great care of them. She sends the BEST pictures and updates, and we always feel so much better knowing she’s checking in on our kitties. Our little crew loves her, and so do we! 🥹🐱💕

Tina was wonderful with our cat, Taco, over our lengthy vacation. They made sure he had adequate playtime & socializing - along with tending to our cat’s various robots. At our meet & greet, Tina took detailed notes & photos to make sure Taco got everything he needed while we were gone. That greatly reassured me. Pet sitting at our place was challenging - the community was handling repairs at the same time, but Tina handled the chaos well. They went above & beyond to run to the pet store after their visit & return to apply some medication. Thanks Tina!

I truly can’t recommend Grey enough. She is an absolute gem and one of those people you feel SO lucky to find on an app like this. She took AMAZING care of my two cats while I was traveling. I felt completely comfortable and at ease knowing they were left in her care. I’m admittedly a little over-the-top when it comes to my cats and their happiness and comfort 😂 and Grey knocked it out of the park. She is attentive, loving, communicative, and took care of them as if they were her own. Also - my cats ADORED her! Animals are excellent judges of character and my cats totally loved her. She shared many photos during each visit and it was clear that they felt extremely safe and happy. I already know they’ll be excited to see her again in the future! If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely wonderful with animals, Grey is your person. I’m so happy I found her and will absolutely be reaching out to book her anytime I need to travel. Thank you, Grey!!! ❤️

Carmen was wonderful with Kiru. She was communicative from the start, checked in regularly, and sent so many photos (a lot of very cute ones) that I never had to wonder how my cat was doing. You can tell she has a lot of experience with animals, and she's just a really kind, attentive person. Kiru was clearly happy and well cared for. I'd recommend Carmen to anyone and will absolutely book her again.

Christine was amazing! She took great care of our two cats and kept us updated on them while we were gone. One of our cats has a medical need and she was more than capable of handling that and our young kitten with tons energy! I would recommend her to anyone. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would!

Carrie is an ABSOLUTE gem - we couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our pup. Carrie has helped watch Marnie twice and has great communication. She makes me feel so secure leaving our baby with her. I know she treats her as if she was her own. I will recommend Carrie to anyone looking for a reliable and kind pet sitter ! 10/10 no notes 😄
