Alex and Bri were great! Our dog Casper looked super happy and content in their cozy home. Sent tons of pics and provided timely updates. Would consider using them again as a boarding option.

Susanna and family were amazing with my almost 3 year old Cocker Spaniel. They knew exactly what to do, the right amount of exercise, naps/chill time and play. He has never been so content and relaxed after coming home from being away! Highly recommend!

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life and would love to share more love with some furry friends!! I'm an animal lover with two small dogs and a bigger goofy Bernedoodle (and 2 cats that are dog friendly). I've had all sorts of animals my entire life and would love to offer up my fenced in yard home to you and your fur baby. My dogs are very accustomed to having visitors. My kids all have animals that come over and "play" with their fur cousins! My little Biewer Terrier is just now a year old, so I am very able to take care of puppies too. I also had to care for our family dog Chloe (almost 17 years old) who had cancer for a while. We had to say goodbye 2 years ago. I can administer meds and am very caring with your unwell babes too. It would be awesome to have another fur friend in the house for a couple of days or week OR just drop him/her off for the day if you need a little daycare instead of overnight. My kids are all grown and I am very available at this stage of life to enjoy my animal love!! My yard is fenced in and has 3 tiers for running around. I have 2 cats that have their own outside "catio" attached to the house. They are great with dogs, so your babe would have to be comfortable with cats and not aggressive. I have a job that I work from home. My 2 little dogs sleep in bed with me and if your dog is small too, they can share along with mine! I have options if you need your dog to sleep in its' preferred crate if that's what they are used to. I am very accommodating to whatever your baby needs to be comfortable away from you.

We were incredibly fortunate to find Anna. She and her husband are friendly and easy to communicate with. They and their dog Chip took care of our Banksy while my partner and I were away, providing us with constant updates and pictures. We will definitely book with them again. Thank you!

Emily and Mark Were phenomenal with our pup. What was meant to be a routine trip to the East Coast for the holidays became a stressful delayed vacation thanks to Covid… And so Mark and Emily had to continue being patient as our plans and dates changed. But…Once we finally left…Mark and Emily communicated very well with us both via pictures and emails telling us about our pups day. Despite the rainy days that they had… They were able to keep the dogs entertained and well walked! When we picked up our dog biscoff he was naturally happy to see us… But we could tell that he was happy and well cared for. Emily left some sweet photographs that she had taken during his stay with a kind a message which was a beautiful goodbye token. Whenever I have met someone from Rover for a meet and greet you can always tell who the true dog lovers are and Emily and Mark are just that! Thank you for taking care of fur baby! We hope to use you again in the near future!!!

Jessica has taken care of Lua (our 2y/o cat) many times when we are away. She's so caring and living towards her, that even though Lua is not super friendly with other people, she loves Jessica! We are so grateful that we have someone that we can totally trust to take care of our baby.

Mesgana was, by far, the best dog-sitter we've had. With thorough updates every night and plenty of pictures, we always knew how Frankie was doing. What really elevated the stay was Mesgana's personal attention. Frankie is an elderly dog, and prone to dementia; she gets confused and anxious in new environments. Mesgana proactively found ways to make Frankie feel more comfortable, and even had a few suggestions for us when we picked her up. Hands down, you cannot find a better person to care for your pup. Thanks again, Mesgana!

What a lovely place to bring your pet! It's like a bed and breakfast retreat for dogs. Private, quiet and safe. For those pooches that like to sniff and explore, the enclosed yard area is the perfect setting. If you feel like going for a walk, there's a nice trail close by.

Lori is the most compassionate and caring dog sitter I’ve ever met. My dog was injured while I was out of town, and she picked up and took care of my dog with such kindness and compassion. She communicated with me all throughout the day and night until I was able to make it back home. Ziggy & I are so grateful for her. I couldn’t recommend a sitter more!!! She’s amazing!!!

Devrie was everything you could ask for and more. She took special care of Khali on my short work trip and I honestly couldn’t be happier. Devrie gave Khali so much love and attention it was very clear on my return that Khali wanted to stay....(That was a bittersweet moment). They had multiple walks a day and Devrie sent plenty of photos showing how much Khali was enjoying her time with Devrie. I absolutely recommend Devrie’s services to anyone and I look forward to working with her again! Thank you so much Devrie!!

About: I had taken care of 8 parakeets and a dog when I was little. I’ve also taken care of dogs from my previous coworkers and family. I’m currently finishing my last semester of undergraduate and have Monday, half day Wednesday, Friday and Sunday free. I’m flexible with having dogs at my house or at your home. I have a fenced yard that is a pretty good size for small and big dogs. I love taking dogs on walk that can last up to an hour! If the dog is energetic, I love playing tag or play catch.
