“My 2-year old pup had his first stay away from home with Nicole and he had a great time. Received nightly updates on how he was doing. Would absolutely book with Nicole again.”
“This was the first time we left Shadow with someone other than family. We were very reluctant to use a service like Rover. However, after meeting Tracey and her husband at the meet and greet I knew that Shadow would be well taken care of. From the day I dropped him off to picking him up Tracey sent daily updates and she took the best photos. I felt like Shadow was being taken care of the way we would care for him. Tracey is absolutely wonderful! I couldn't have picked a better person to watch Shadow. I highly recommend her and the next time we need a dog sitter I will definitely ask her. Thank you Tracey!!!”
“Lydia was amazing! Her house was set up perfectly for big dogs. I have a 9 month Cane Corso who is 100lbs and it’s always been difficult to find someone who is comfortable with large working breeds. Lydia’s experience with large dogs put my mind at ease immediately. I told her “if you can handle a pack of Saint Bernards then I have no fear with you and Zeus!” If your looking for an experienced dog owner with a wealth of knowledge than Lydia is your person!!!”
“Doh was an excellent communicator for our first time experience with Rover. Louie was in good hands with extra playmates and she treated him like he was her own dog. I would highly recommend Doh to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
About: I've had dogs all my life. I have watched dogs for friends and families'. I drive transport for NorCal Boxer Rescue and Gettinhome Rescue, which has included a very wide variety of dogs, period. Different temperaments, different sizes. Puppies up to a St. Bernard. I am retired and home most of the day besides doing errands. I have a dog door with a very large grassy backyard area. I have 2, five year old long haired Dachshund. Dogs can come and go as they want with the dog door, but we also take them out for potty breaks throrught out the stay.Dogs are allowed on the furniture. I have stairs for them to get up here. Dogs are allowed on the bed and we have stairs for the bed. I take dogs for walks in the early morning and late afternoon, evening. I have a large fenced in backyard and 2 friendly five year old long haired Dachshund to keep your dog company. If a crate is required you would need to bring your own. I do have extra dog beds.
“Erin and Devin took such amazing care of our dog, Kody, while we were away. Kody is usually pretty anxious, so we’re always a bit nervous leaving him—but he absolutely loved being with them. It was clear from the updates that he felt comfortable, happy, and right at home. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation stress-free, which means everything. We’re so grateful to have found Erin and Devin and wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Kody again. Highly recommend!”
“Ekaterina is amazing. She loves on your dog as much as you would. She adheres to instructions on your puppy. Enough can't be said about how amazing she is. A new fear has been unlocked now. That when I now try to rebook with her, the work would've found out how great she is, and now I she's booked up. Great job!!!”
“Grisel and her daughter took such good care of my Momo! I could tell Momo was comfortable and felt safe. They were also excellent communicators and send me very frequent picture updates of Momo, which I really appreciated. Would definitely have Momo stay with them again.”

“Liv was exceptional! My dog is more on the anxious side so I was initially worried about how he would do. He’s known to be a bit difficult to handle for new strangers. He warmed up to Liv the quickest out of everyone he’s ever met. Liv was so chill, understanding, considerate, and communicative. I was always receiving updates and pictures even when I hadn’t asked. It gave me peace of mind. Liv radiates warmth and kindness and I’m sure the pets can feel it! It was an absolute privilege to have my doggy in her care. I never once felt worried while he was with her. In fact, I thought he wouldn’t want to return home because he looked so happy with Liv! I highly recommend Liv!”
“Nancy was amazing. The best dog sitter we’ve ever had! I felt so comfortable leaving Maple with her, as I can tell she truly loves like her own. Maple will be back!!!”
“Nicole took great care of our MJ. He was recovering from seizures so he was not himself. She showed him so much love and made sure he was very comfortable. Dare I say, she may have spoiled him more than we do! She was very responsive and overall just very kind. We did not worry about him at all while on vacay. I would definitely book her again!”
“I was extremely apprehensive leaving my dogs with anyone for the first time at their ages of 12 and 13, but Victoria was absolutely amazing. She answered any questions I had and listened to all of my particulars. Just by the updates she sent I could tell my babies were doing things they only ever do when they’re comfortable and totally relaxed. Couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Nicole went above and beyond to make sure my pup was comfortable and well adjusted to her home. She also went above and beyond with communicating with me! I’ll be booking again!”
“Johnna and her family were wonderful with my Kai. He seemed very happy and well taken care of during the week long boarding stay. She was great about providing photos and updates daily, and taking him on little adventures.”
About: I had two rescue chihuahua dogs & they passed away within a year of each other. I miss having dogs in my life, but I am not ready to get another fur baby. That is why I have decided to offer my services to dog sit. I have dog sat my aunts senior dogs and friends dogs. I love taking dogs on walks and playing with them. I love hearing their paws walking around my house. I work full time during the daytime but I am available during the weekends and I do work from home twice a week. I can take breaks and play with the fur babies. I have a fenced yard and I had two fur babies of my own but sadly they have passed away. I would make sure to spoil your pet while you are away as I know how hard it is for them to be away from their home. I have experience taking watching dogs in my house. In the past I have dog sat my aunts two senior dogs when she goes vacation.
“Absolutely the best! My dog probably loves being at Alexis's more than his own home :/. She was amazing with last minute changes and I can't say enough positive things. A+!”
“I'm so glad I chose Mariia! Her family took very good care of my 4yr old dachshund mix. She updated me several times with pictures and even a video of them playing! I would not hesitate to book with her again.”
“Susan and Irv took great care of Enola. Susan kept us updated and sent pictures to show how much fun Enola was having. This is the second time Enola has stayed with Susan and she definitely feels at home.”

I am so appreciative to have found Liv to sitter Tabby! I always get worry because Tabby get very anxious with dogs and people she doesn't know. But she seemed very comfortable with Liv right from the beginning. Liv gave Tabby her space, and toward the end of our meet up visit, Tabby was given Liv kisses. I knew then that everything was going to be OK. Liv sent me pictures of Tabby throughout the day, and I felt very comfortable knowing that she was taken care of. Liv is very sweet! I recommend her to everyone who needs a pet sitter. She will be great with your pet.
Danie was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Coco and Odyssey. Throughout our trip, she sent frequent updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When our return travel was disrupted by a typhoon in Japan, she was incredibly patient and flexible while we worked through a very complicated rebooking process. We truly appreciated her communication and understanding during a stressful situation. Most importantly, it was clear from every update that she genuinely cared about our pups and treated them like part of her family. Coco and Odyssey looked happy, relaxed, and well loved throughout their stay. We are so grateful for the care she provided and would gladly trust her with our dogs again. Highly recommended!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 Stars Antoinette and her family took excellent care of Chloe! We received a video update and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Chloe was well cared for, walked regularly, and clearly enjoyed her stay. We truly appreciated the love and attention they gave her. We will definitely be using Antoinette again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.
My first time using Rover. Mariia was timely, thoughtful, and consistent. She was very kind and hands on in meeting Oliver, it made us feel very welcome and comfortable at drop off. She sent photographs and videos everyday. This was my dogs first trip away and it was 11 nights. I was able to focus on my time away knowing he was well taken care of. I would use her services again and recommend to others. Thank you!
I couldn’t be happier with my experience! Jenny took such wonderful care of my dog while I was away. She treated him like part of her family and made sure he felt right at home. I really appreciated the daily photo updates and messages—it was so comforting to see how happy and relaxed he was each day. Her home is clean, welcoming, and clearly set up with pets’ comfort in mind. I’ll definitely be reaching out again next time I need a sitter. Highly recommend!
We had such a great experience with Jerome. She took amazing care of our boys and it really showed. They came home happy and worn out from all the fun. We also really appreciated the daily check-ins with messages and photos. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away for the weekend.
Daisy and Bailey have stayed with Julane a few times. They feel at home when they stay with her. She sends us pictures and updates. I love the pictures of our dogs chilling on the couch and when they’re about to walk with their furry friend Mary. Our dogs are so happy and comfortable staying with Julane and her family. ❤️🐾🐶
Janet was a wonderful sitter for my dog, Maya! She provided regular updates and took great care of Maya, ensuring she felt comfortable and happy during her stay. I truly appreciated Janet’s communication and care. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and friendly dog sitter!
Raina is very responsive and sweet ! She did a great job caring for our young and energetic dog , Kobe. He can be a handful, but she handled him like a pro —taking him on walks and making sure he got plenty of playtime. She would send us photos everyday and is super quick with texting back. Thank you again for all your patience and care! Much appreciated:)
