“I felt completely at ease leaving my dog here! From the moment we met, it was clear they truly care for the pets they host. I received regular updates and photos, which made me so comfortable while I was away. My dog came home happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind they gave me—will definitely book again!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sabrina watched our two dogs for one week and we had a wonderful experience. Communication was excellent from the very beginning, and her home was welcoming and well suited for pets. Our dogs were comfortable right away during the meet and greet and showed no hesitation on drop off day. We received regular updates and adorable photos throughout our trip, which gave us great peace of mind. Pick up was easy, with our dogs ready to go and all of their belongings packed and organized. We were able to fully enjoy our time away knowing our dogs were in excellent hands. I would absolutely book with Sabrina again. Thank you so much!”
“Excellent overnight stay! Our dog Tiki was well cared for, happy, and comfortable. Great communication and a very positive experience overall. Would definitely use again. Highly recommend Patricia and Tyler!”
“Chewie (and I) had a great experience with Mariah. Very communicative. Sent plenty of update pics to give us peace of mind that Chewie was doing fine. He even smelled better when we got him back (she gave him a bath 😃). Drop off and pickup was super easy as there was plenty of places to park. Overall a A+++++++ experience! Oh and the price was awesome too!”
“He is incredibly attentive, responsible, and caring. I could tell that my furry friend was in good hands right from the start. They went above and beyond to ensure my dog's comfort and happiness throughout the stay. I highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch pet care.”
“We can’t recommend Ximena enough! She has been absolutely wonderful with our 1-year-old Maltipoo, Daisy. Honestly, sometimes we feel like Daisy prefers Ximena’s home over ours — that’s how happy and comfortable she is there! Ximena and her family treat Daisy like one of their own. Whether it's going on walks, playing, or even including her in family picnics, Daisy is always part of the action and clearly loved. What really sets Ximena apart is the regular updates she sends — pictures and videos that show Daisy having fun and being well cared for. She also is very attentive if there are concerns from us that we would like monitoring like her food intake or energy levels. It gives us such peace of mind, especially since Daisy has some abandonment issues from prior to our adoption. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust completely. Ximena is a true gem!”
“Exceptional dog sitter! This marks the second time she's cared for our two small dogs, and once again, she surpassed our expectations. She provided daily updates, along with photos. The genuine affection our dogs show for her speaks volumes. Her unwavering availability during our family emergency was a true comfort. She consistently goes above and beyond, making her the go-to choice for anyone in need of a caring and reliable pet sitter. Highly recommend her for a second time and beyond!”
“cannot recommend them enough!! They took such incredible care of my baby Noori during my wedding weekend, and honestly went above and beyond in every possible way. Not only did they watch her with so much love and patience, they even brought her to my wedding exactly when I needed her and handled everything so calmly and kindly. During such a stressful time, knowing Noori was safe, happy, and loved meant everything to me. They were so professional, thoughtful, and truly kind souls. My family and I are forever grateful. Noori absolutely adored them too 🥹🐾 If you need someone you can fully trust with your fur baby, they are the BEST. Thank you for being part of such a special moment in our lives 🤍✨”
About: I’ve been around animals and caring for pets since I was young, and my love for them has only grown over the years. I currently have five pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to make sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m trusted by neighbors and family friends to care for their pets, and I always make sure each one gets plenty of attention, patience, and kindness. I pride myself on providing a safe, calm, and loving experience so your furry friend feels happy and secure while you’re away! I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your furry babies. I’m available on weekends and on weekdays starting at 10:00 AM. I make sure to plan my schedule ahead of time so each pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. I have a pet-friendly home with two very friendly Rottweilers and three cats who are used to being around other animals. Growing up with pets and having five of my own has given me plenty of experience handling both large and small breeds. I’m familiar with the occasional messes that come with pet care and always keep a clean, safe environment. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities, and I make sure every animal feels welcome and well cared for.
“After having a family emergency, I had reached out in extremely short notice to see if Lianna could watch my one year old pup for two nights. She gladly accepted and assured me he was in good care upon drop off. Lianna was great about sending pictures and videos of Zyon which brought more reassurance. Overall would rate this a great experience and I will definitely be sending my puppy back.”
About: My family has had large German Shepherds since I was young. My dog is a Jack Russell and I trained her from a puppy at just 8 weeks old (she turns 12 this year!). I’m very comfortable with dogs of all ages and sizes! As a child, I took care of my neighbors animals when they went away on vacation. This included leash walking my senior neighbors dogs on a regular basis. I also routinely leash walk my own dog for exercise. I'm passionate about pet adoption and am currently fostering 2 kittens through the SPCA! Because I do Rover full time, I have lots of availability for dog walks and drop ins throughout the week! I am fairly active at home with my own dogs, so I enjoy tiring out pets with lots of play and walks! As a pet parent myself, I understand the level of trust that goes into allowing someone to care for your fur baby. I treat your animals like my own, as well as respect your home and privacy.
“Moose (4yr old male goldendoodle) always has a great time under the care of Maritza. Martitza is gentle with Moose and provides me with updates and pictures/videos throughout the day. Moose gets to relax and play with other pups and is always meeting new friends. Moose and I are truly grateful!”
“Megan was amazing! We had to leave our Cali with a new sitter for the first time and she went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. She sent tons of photos and checked in regularly with updates on how our pup was doing. Cali came home happy and relaxed- We will definitely be booking with Megan in the future! Thanks for everything!!!!”
“Caroline was a wonderful sitter for my Ava! She gave thorough updates about her activity, food, walking, and potty schedule and sent daily photo updates. Ava warmed up to her immediately and was sad when she left - thanks Caroline for taking such great care of Ava!!”
“Mario is an incredible dog caretaker and truly one of the best I’ve ever encountered. He is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and understands how to work with them in a caring and loving way. I trust him completely with my dog’s care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone experienced, attentive, and compassionate.”
“Cheby is always so nice and timely with her responses. She is the one my husband and I trust even for a last minute request. We look forward to continuing to work with her for our pup-sitting needs!”
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner since childhood and treat every pup like family. I currently have a dog of my own (Beagle), so I’m already in the habit of an active lifestyle. My daily routine includes two long walks and playtime, ensuring your pup gets the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need to stay happy. I’ve been taking my dog to training classes since she was a puppy, so I know that patience is everything! I’m great at staying consistent with commands and keeping a calm, positive environment for dogs of all temperaments. I work from home, which means I’m super flexible for quick drop-ins or walks during the day! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions regarding my schedule :) I prioritize getting to know yours and your dog’s boundaries beforehand so I can provide a safe and loving environment where your pup is cared for.
About: Hi. I had dogs for the last 23 years. My children love dog sitting along with myself. The dogs have plenty of exercise and hugs. We never had a complaint when dog sitting for our friends and family. We have two teenage twins & enjoy staying home. We have a complete fence huge backyard. We are also able to board pets during the week but would be in backyard while we work. We are usually home by 5pm. In case you are comfortable with that schedule as well an needed boarding during the week. We only have one pet pug that is super friendly and does well with other dogs. She is 7 years old. We are at work from 8-5pm. We love staying home. We are able to board during the week if you are comfortable with your pet being in the backyard in a very secure area. The fence is made out of block with two iron security gates. I have a fence backyard that provides complete safety and plenty of room to play. We could also walk the dog but as always it depends on weather. We want to keep pets as safe.

This was my wife and I first time using a dog sitter. I was referred to Rover by my sister. We found Sabrina when we filtered our search criteria for our dog. Sabrina was awesome from scheduling to the time she watched our fur baby. Sabrina was very easy to communicate with and provided awesome pictures and timely updates on Henry. We will definitely be reaching back out to Sabrina for futures dog sitting needs. “Thank you Sabrina!”
Cathie and Donald(Dave) are amazing! They take care of our baby pup so well that he forgets he wants to come home! He has way too much fun and is so loved! They are truly the best and we could not ask for better sitters. They definitely treat your dog/ pet like family. They are the best!
Ness took loving care of my baby while I was out of town. I really like her home setup with a backyard play area with grass and very tall fences. She's also fine with the dogs on the bed which is what my dog prefers. The neighborhood is also quiet, and, bonus, she's on the way to the airport.
This was my first time leaving my dog as just recently adopted and was anxious, however Ken made it easy. He sends check ins/updates to let me know how my dog is handling the temporary change. It was nice. He also worked with his routine as he could so he was not off when he returned. Everything about the experience was great. Thank you again.
We had to leave town for a family emegrgency and couldn't take our pup. It was our first time leaving him and Aarti made sure to take great care of him. She was able to take him in sooner than we thought too but she was very accomodating and I know we left him in good hands. Teddy was tired when we picked him up so I now he had a great time with all the other pups.
Wonderful! This was the first time when I left my baby with a sitter and to add to my stress level it was for an entire week. As I have a guard dog (giant breed), I went for a meet and greet to ensure that her backyard would be safe for my dog, and there are no ways for him to escape. Corina put my mind at easy. Very open, friendly and just a genuine sweet person who loves pets. I received photos/videos and messages with updates about my dog's wellbeing every single day. My search for a sitter is over! I would definitely bring him back when I need a sitter. Thank you so much Corina!!
We had such a great experience with Mario! He is attentive, caring, and truly treated our Ollie like family. It’s clear he loves what he does and it shows in the way he communicates and cares for animals. So lucky to have someone like this in our community — highly recommend! 🐾
