“Jordan was fantastic! She arrived promptly and sent us photos of the pups to let us know she was there and the pups were well :). She continued to send us photos (and she got some great shots) in a way that was comforting and just the right amount. The house was in great shape when we got home. It was such a relief to know that our dogs were in their own environment. We are all looking forward to our next opportunity to have Jordan do a drop in visit or stay when we travel.”


“Rhoda was wonderful with my boy Benny! He clearly was content and happy, she communicated with texts & photos regularly & took great care of all while house sitting. Will definitely request her again!”


“Keyla was wonderful with my golden retriever Freja. She let me know when she was there and took pictures to show how happy Freja was with her. When I got home Freja was happy as can be and not stressed that I had been gone for the weekend.”


“Anna was simply amazing. This is my very first time booking with Rover and of course I read all of her amazing reviews and I knew she was the perfect pic for my fur babies. Not only was it our first time hiring Anna unfortunately my puppy had a tummy bug which resulted in lots of dog diarrhea. Anna catered to my pet not only taking care of Maui, but also cooking a special diet and keeping her as comfortable as possible until we were able to get back to her. We are so grateful for her amazing attitude and her love for our pet. There was constant communication and I felt like I was right there with them. Never did I feel like I did not know how Maui was doing or how she was eating or sleeping. We will definitely be rebooking with Anna in the very near future. Thank you Again.”


“Aliyah is a pleasure and appreciate her animal magic and proactive sitting service. Timely and responsive communication is definitely a welcome surprise. Strongly recommend.”


About: As a lifelong big guy and animal lover, I bring calm, confident, consistent care to pets of all sizes and ages with experience with men's, mobility, grooming, and affection routines. I care for my own fur children but my current work doesn't require my attention for more than couple hours a day so I am very open to scheduling arrangements around any time frame. My girls thrive in a calm and consistent environment so that's exactly what I try my best to provide. I prioritize safety at all times, keeping steady routines, closely monitor behavior, and always using pet-safe products. I am always mindful of entrances (mostly not to hit my head) leashes, and feeding times, and I'll never leave pets unattended. I like to build trust with animals through quiet presence, patience, and clear intentions communicated. My goal is to make your animal companion feel secure, comfortable, and cared for like family.

“We love Rebecca! She stayed at our home with our 3 pups and we were so happy with her service. She communicated well and is super sweet. We will definitely be using her in the future!”


About: I have dogs since I was a baby so I have been around pets my entire life. I have done training with pets as well as puppy potty training! I am also a nanny/babysitter so I am quick on my feet and know how to have lots of fun! I am a student at school and currently on break for the summer so I am available all weekends and week mornings. Typically Monday- Friday at 8am-2pm and 7pm-12pm as well as anytime at weekends. I can care for pets in any way that is necessary for the client. I am very happy with long walks or running around outside as well as snuggling on the couch with less active furry friends. Whatever the client wants, I am extremely happy to achieve

“Adriana was amazing! Our dog is very nervous and has separation anxiety, and Adriana took the extra time and care to make sure she felt safe and well looked after. We were updated with photos and texts frequently and knowing how well Adriana looked after our baby gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our trip. Will be booking again!”


“Emma is simply amazing! She stayed at our house for 11 days and took great care of our dog and cat while were abroad. Our dog, a Boston Terrier, requires to be fed 4 times a day because of the many supplements and meds he needs to keep his Inflammatory Bowel disease in control. It's a lot of work for us, but we are his parents and we do it. Emma took over this task without missing a beat. She was also good sports when she needed to walk 11 floors by stairs because the elevators in our building were turned off due to Hurricane Idalia. She was caring for our pets, respectful to our home, and kept us updated. I liked her so much that we have plans to book her twice in the near future.”


“Jenna was absolutely incredible with our 4 year old pup Otto! He is quite the walker and she went above and beyond for him, keeping him on his regular routine and more! She gave him lots of love, playtime, and attention, and spent tons of time with him which we really appreciated. She is a true dog lover! She also gave us lots of updates and pictures it helped us feel so at ease while we were away. Our dog looked like he had the best time, we will be booking her again in the future for sure. So happy to have found Jenna!”


About: I had 2 dogs, one for 10 and the second for 16 years. With that I got to see what owning a dog requires from potty training, to teething, and training. Then of course I learned how to deal with my Girl as she got older, lost hearing/eyesight, and had a decline in mobility abilities. Professionally I have worked with Championship dock diving and frisbee catching dogs....5 of them at one time. I cared for 5 King Charles Spaniels that where Championship show dogs.....lots of rules for their care! I have cared for people's dogs in their homes while they went out of town and I have boarded in my own home. Pets at my place will be treated as my own. They will be allowed on the couch and bed and will have frequent walks. My dog loved to fetch and the other loved to hunt lizards and squirrels so I am good and patient when they need their play time. If your pets needs addition special care such as taking medications and requiring frequent brushing, I will make sure it happens. Your dogs will want to come back! I do not work but do have medical appointments at the VA. So other then that, my days is completely free to pet, cuddle, and play. I am willing to do what is best comfortable for your pet. Mine were crate trained so if I ever left the house and didn't crate them as I was going to be away a very short time and I thought I was doing them a favor, they would freak out while I was away. They knew their crate and it was there comfort when I left the house. So what ever you and your pet prefer, I will do. You tell me when they like to be fed and how many snacks they can have, of course any medical issues such as allergies, and I will abide by their schedules. Of course I will need your vets info and an emergency contact.

“I can’t say enough great things about Tina! She stepped in at the last minute when our regular pet sitter canceled, and I was so close to canceling my trip. From the moment we met her, Tina made us feel at ease, fitting right into the family, and our pups absolutely adored her—they were unusually excited around her! We headed out of the country with total peace of mind, knowing they were in good hands. Throughout the week, Tina went above and beyond. She sent regular updates and photos, showing how much fun our pups were having, and administered their many medications seamlessly. She made sure they got long walks and plenty of playtime in the sunshine every day. When we got home, the pups were totally worn out and happy, barely moving when we walked through the door (which was a surprise!). They even went looking for her in her room this morning! Not only did Tina take amazing care of our dogs, but she also went the extra mile around the house—running the dishwasher, unloading it, and even washing her bedding. She was such a lifesaver, and I wholeheartedly recommend her. We’ll definitely be calling her again!”



“Great job with two 100+ lbs dogs who are not socialized. Came over for a meet and greet and got nipped in the hand by my precious Canary Mastiff. Didn’t faze him. Sat down and got barked at for twenty mins before the dogs chilled! Totally reliable and trustworthy service! Hoping Marcus will help again during extended vacations!!”
