“Our two lil senior dogs stayed with Rachel for three weeks. This was our first time using a Rover sitter, and we were a little worried. But Rachel exceeded our expectations and took phenomenal care of our kiddos. Thank you!”


“We had such a wonderful experience with Kessling! Our elderly dog needed a little extra help, some daily medication and assistance with stairs, and she handled everything with such care. We felt extra reassured since Kessling is a vet tech, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in knowledgeable hands in case something went wrong. She was patient and unfazed by our specific requests, and treated our dog very well. We’re so grateful to have found her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable sitter—especially if your pet needs a bit of extra TLC!”


“Queenie and her husband took such good care of my dog, Eevee, for two weeks! She was responsive, thoughtful, and made sure Eevee felt at home and had a great time. Eevee also had a blast playing with their sweet pup, Summer. Highly recommend Queenie to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”


“Was very happy with the care of Nico. Sean sent regular updates and cute photos. It gave us peace of mind knowing Nico was in loving hands. Highly recommend!”


“Jaynee was very kind, communicative, and patient! She took our beagle for walks, had a nice couch for her, kept us updated with photos and videos, and took great care of her. Will definitely want to have our dog stay with Jaynee again in the future!”


“We had a wonderful experience with her watching our dog, Tuantuan, this past weekend! From the initial meet-and-greet, we knew Tuantuan would be in great hands. She was incredibly welcoming and clearly loves dogs. She provided regular updates and photos, which put our minds at ease. We could tell Tuantuan was having a blast playing in her home and yard and getting lots of attention. We really appreciated that she was flexible with our pick-up time. Tuantuan came home happy and tired, which is the best sign of a great stay! We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to other dog owners.”



“I’ve been a long time day care client and recently boarded both my dogs. It was a flawless experience. My pups received premium care and I highly recommend Ezra as a sitter.”


“Valerie was so great with my dog! She has a lot of experience with dogs and I felt at ease leaving Riley with Valerie when I was gone for an international trip. She sent updates and pictures and it seemed my dog was very happy and comfortable with her too. Don’t hesitate to book with Valerie if you need any dog boarding for your pet, she’s great! I will be booking with her in the future.”


“I highly recommend Mary! She made me feel so at ease when she watched my fur baby while I was out of the country for a week. I haven’t felt like my girl was in such good hands with previous sitters, and I’ve been through many. Mary was understanding and accommodating for my dog’s individual needs (anxious and needy) and made her feel so comfortable. I was updated with frequent updates and photos/videos that melted my heart. I truly felt like I could enjoy my vacation without any worries. Your dog will be in a warm, caring and loving family home with Mary. ❤️🙏🏽”


“Leah is very friendly and warm. She and her daughter made my pup comfortable with the other small pups who were visiting! Loved the photos she sent throughout the overnight visit!”


“This review is for both Charlie’s stay in February (the system didn’t save my last review) and most recently for the last week of April. Me and Charlie have quickly become one of Savannah’s regulars, and it’s for good reason—because she is the best! ☺️Savannah and her family are wonderful and make Charlie feel right at home. From Charlie’s med time, meals, walks, and sunbathing time, Charlie’s routine is kept the same as if he was at home. Savannah is also a great communicator and shares regular updates, photos, and videos. Charlie says, “thank you, auntie Savannah!” 🐶”


About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember—from energetic 8-week-old puppies to sweet senior companions. My wide range of hands-on experience means I’m quick to read your pup’s body language, needs, and moods. Whether it’s reinforcing training, playing outside, or just enjoying some cozy cuddle time, I genuinely love being around dogs and treat every one like they’re part of my own family. To ensure your fur baby gets my full attention and care, I only take one dog at a time. With me, your pup will feel safe, loved, and completely at home. I currently work a hybrid schedule and only accept clients when I’m working from home. This allows me to be fully present and give your pup my undivided attention throughout their stay. I’m by their side the entire time to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I typically go on two 30-minute walks a day, but I’m happy to adjust the routine based on your dog’s energy level and needs. With full time supervision, I’ll ensure that your pup gets the care and attention they need! My house and backyard is completely fenced to ensure no funny business, while allowing your pup to enjoy all the playtime they deserve!

“Minh is so nice and accommodating. Very easy to work with. This was our first time using Rover and we could not be more pleased with the experience. She sent us picture updates regularly, she provided a safe and clean environment for our dogs. We could not be happier. Thank you, Minh!”


“Catherine recently took on our last minute dogsitting request for our puppy, Aloe, and we were so happy with our experience! I haven't used Rover in years and hadn't worked with a dogsitter in a long time so wasn't sure how it was going to go, but Catherine gave Aloe a wonderful doggy vacation while we humans were on our own trip. She provided frequent photo, video, and text updates, and was very communicative about how Aloe was doing. It gave me so much peace of mind that Aloe was in good hands. Aloe looked like she had a great time with Catherine's dog as well :) Thank you Catherine for taking such wonderful care of our pup!”



“Thank you Tansie, Zoe and Brad for taking for of Cookie while I’m on vacation for 2 weeks. She sent us photos and videos and keep me updated about Cookie. I will use you guys again thanks.”

“I have a special needs, senior malamute with (diagnosed) major anxiety. Ideally, I wanted him to stay with one sitter to build trust with the dog and for them to learn how to support his special needs. However, I have had issues with previous sitters that would leave me feeling unsatisfied (. After struggling to find a suitable dog sitter, I finally found Anna. Anna was able to accommodate me on short notice to care for my dog. She listened to all of my concerns and reassured me that my dog would be in good hands. Other dog sitters would dismiss my concerns, but Anna went as far as to send me pictures, videos, and text updates throughout the day so I wouldn’t have to worry if my dog was okay. From what I’ve seen so far, Anna has great control over all the dogs she has in her car. I let her know that my dog is very nervous around other dogs, but to my surprise she sent me a video of him playing with the other dogs and, even, swimming in her pool! Up until this point, I had never seen my highly anxious dog do so well around other dogs, much less swimming in a pool! All very exciting things. Suffice to say, I will be booking with Anna from now on, and I would highly recommend her to all my family and friends! Thank you, Anna!”


“Idalys and Elissa were great sitters for Luna. Very communicative and flexible on pickup and drop off. Definitely recommend and plan on hiring them for future sits.”

Melanie T.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our senior dog, Max. At 15 years old, Max needs extra patience, slow walks, and lots of comfy nap spots - and Melanie went above and beyond to make sure he felt safe and loved every moment. She has such a gentle way with older dogs and really understands their special needs. We appreciated how she kept to Max’s medication and feeding schedule perfectly and always sent updates so we never had to worry. When we picked Max up, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly adored her. If you have a senior dog who needs a little extra TLC, Melanie is the best - we’re so grateful we found her!”
