About: I grew up with dogs, worked at PetSmart for many years, continued dog sitting professionally, and raised my own current dog, Gizmo, from 5 weeks old. I have gone through extensive training and I use that to help others with training issues when I can. I've been through various medical issues and found the appropriate care, including for a choking dog. I am an artist and like to photograph or draw they dogs I care for - have done separate pet portrait work not included with dog sitting. I like to try to really communicate with and understand each dog in their own circumstances. I have a dog park available just a short walk down the street. I have the ability to schedule working from home if needed. Typically, if you would like your dog to stay at my home, they will be sharing space with my dog, Gizmo. So please communicate if you need special consideration for alone time. I take walks or visit the dog park in the mornings. I typically work 10 to 6 Monday through Friday at an office, but can schedule days to work from home if a dog is staying and can not be left for a long period of time. My dog is Gizmo. He is okay with other dogs and will typically play a little outside and leave your dog to have their own space inside. You will need to discuss your situation with me if your dog needs alone time with me as I would need to address Gizmo's care under those circumstances. My house is on the smaller side, but the yard is fenced in and is reasonably sized. There is a dog door available to allow easy access to the yard. Dogs are allowed on couches and the bed in my home. I have one large crate if you would like your dog to use one. Each room can be closed off if separation is needed. If I am caring for a dog in another home, I need to take the same consideration for Gizmo. Please share your needs so we can adjust as necessary.
“L & L were terrific with Stormy. They provided regular updates along with photos and videos so we could see that Stormy was well taken care of. He even got to spend some time with other pups that visited for part of his stay. We will definitely use L & L again on our next trip. It provided such peace of mind knowing he was with such dog-loving people.🥰”
“First timer to book through Rover and it was a smashing success! Juliet seemed well cared for and entertained while her family left her for a long weekend. I would definitely book with John again. I think that Juliet got to hang with another dog put her at ease in a new home. And loved that we received periodic photos of her enjoying her vacation. Thank you!”
“Angelina went above and beyond caring for our Butterscotch. Excellent communication and multiple pictures sent every day. She even noticed his itchy skin issue and offered to recommend homeopathic remedies. Will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Cary and her daughter are wonderful. Mac was there for a week and made himself at home. A nice fenced in yard and he was treated as one of the family. I highly recommend.”
“Denise is an excellent pup caregiver! She is knowledgeable about dog care and did execptionally well with our puppymill rescue Maggie who is usually very timid and shy. Maggie took to Denise right away and was kissing her hand and going to her for pets and ear rubs during our meet and greet. Maggie's tale was wagging in the update photos sent and she ate and took her meds without any issues. I highly recommend Denise and will definitely use her again!”
“Alexandria went above and beyond while watching our dog! It's obvious how much she loves dogs and that she's very attentive and responsible. Never worried about our dog for a second while we were gone, could tell she was having a great time from all the pics. We'll be back!”
“Valentina was the absolute best. I had an emergency where my phone was stolen from me while I was out of town. I had to stay in that city for a few extra days and wasn’t able to communicate or contact her or Rover at all. She saved my life and my puppy’s life =) Such a trustworthy person and amazing dog caregiver. Can’t recommend her enough. 6 stars if possible!”
“Lauren has taken care of my dog Kylo, three times and I couldn't be happier with her care. Lauren is an amazing dog sitter and I always feel comfortable leaving Kylo with her. Since Kylo is diabetic it is especially important that he stays on his feeding schedule and receives his insulin injections on time, and Lauren is incredibly responsible and attentive to his needs. She provides multiple updates throughout the day, including pictures, detailed messages and even Wooftrax updates so I know how long his walks are. Kylo is very comfortable with her, and she does such a wonderful job of making him feel safe and cared for. I feel incredibly lucky to have found such a trustworthy and caring dog sitter for our baby. We truly appreciate everything Lauren does for our precious pup and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter.”
“Kandyce was great with our dog and with us! She kept in touch and was responsive, while also being patient with our dog's idiosyncrasies. The dog loved playing with Kandyce's dogs, too. Highly recommend!”
“Ruben was incredible! He went above and beyond to ensure my dog felt comfortable and safe.He was extremely communicative, and sent frequent photo and text updates. My dog and I both loved the experience, we will definitely be back!!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who treats every animal like my own. Whether it’s a walk around the block, playtime in the yard, or cozy cuddles, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away I work in education, so I am available in the late afternoons and evenings during the week. My weekend availability is generally very open. :) When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat each animal like they’re my own: with love, patience, and respect. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and needs, whether that means sticking to specific feeding times, giving medication, going for long walks, or offering extra cuddles and playtime. I also make sure their environment stays clean and comfortable, and I’m happy to send updates and photos to keep you at ease while you’re away. My goal is always to provide consistency and care so your pet feels safe and happy in their familiar surroundings.
“David and Susan were easy to schedule with and very accommodating for our dog! They hosted our lab for a long vacation and made sure she was loved while we were away! Thank you!”
“Alyssa and Skyler were wonderful with Cubbie! He even ate while he stayed overnight, which is huge news and demonstrates how comfortable he was. They also gave us the cutest little report card to recap his adventure.”
“Lauriann and Sven were wonderful sitters! They sent pictures and updates every day. They made sure my Shar-Pei mix felt comfortable through the rain and fireworks, which she can get anxiety about. I felt so safe leaving her in their care and I would definitely book them again.”
About: I have loved animals since childhood, and when I was a child I had a cat. I also lived with my boyfriend's family for a year, they had a dog and I took care of Him. Now periodically my friends leave their dogs with me when they go on a trip or on a business trip. I love this expression: "Dogs talk, but only to those who can listen." I work online so I have a lot of time to play and take care of your dogs. The second part of the day is more freely , but I have a flexible schedule and can combine work and pet care. I have a large one-room apartment with plenty of space for a dog. Near the house there is a large area outside for walking, a few minutes away there is a large park with a lake. I walk the dog several times a day, feed it on schedule, and play with the cats' and dogs' favorite toys.
“Nemo took to Kathleen right away. She kept him busy with walking and playing with her children. She is a dog lover! He is as in good hands. Sent several pics too. Would definitely ask her to sit again.”

Blue had the BEST time with Mary! This was Blue’s first time away from us over night with someone who is not our family. With that being said, Blue stayed with Mary for multiple nights, and was her happy playful self! She normally likes to food strike when she is away from us, but she ate all of her meals like a champ while with Mary. She also cuddled with her and got so many great walks!
Elena had good communication, a clean environment, and friendly disposition. It was my first time leaving my pets. They’re very small and young so I was nervous. Upon arrival, I felt comfortable to leave them in her care. When I picked them up after they stayed for two nights, they seemed happy and healthy just as I’d left them :)
Holly and her family immediately welcomed Lincoln into their home and made sure he felt comfortable during his stay. Holly sent us lots of updates and made sure we knew how our boy was doing. Would highly recommend and Lincoln hopes he can visit again. He especially loved his playtime with Holly’s pups Layla and Piper☺️

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
