“I am so grateful to have found Kelly. She is very intentional about providing excellent care and I felt completely at ease with Ginger in her care. She sent updates and photos and I could see my Ginger was happy. Thank you Kelly!”

“Megan and Jenny were fantastic! They communicated multiple updates throughout the day — every day, and multiple times — with photos. They made sure Pancho was well taken care of and enjoyed a variety of activities. They were responsive, attentive, and kind. Drop-off and pick-up were efficient. Highly recommend — we’ll definitely be repeat customers.”

“Sharon took great care of Cain, especially given a recent health concern that popped up for him right before we were leaving for our trip. I felt that he was comfortable and in great care!”

“Meagan did an INCREDIBLE job taking care of our 3 month old puppy when we unexpectedly needed a sitter. She helped with crate training and potty training, appropriately socialized our pup, kept her safe and well looked after, and gave us all of the updates and pictures! I could not recommend her more and we will definitely use her again in the future!”

“Lee was great. She sent us pictures each day and kept us updated on our pups. She was quick to respond and you can tell she totally loves dogs! We felt totally comfortable leaving our dogs with her for a long weekend and we will definitely rebook with her.”

“Matthew and Van Jospeh did a wonderful job hosting our dog, Stanley, for a 2 night stay. They were very easy to work with, were flexible, very friendly, and Stanley seemed at ease the moment he met them. Would absolutely use their boarding services again. Thank you!”


“5 stars all the way! Jeff and his family are wonderful! Our pup is shy and skittish of new people but Jeff and family quickly put her at ease. Even better, I got loads of picture updates. My pup was loved and cared for and had a great stay! My pup will definitely be back!”

“Rachel is a terrific dog sitter! She is very responsive and communicative, and my dog had a great time with her and her dog. I appreciated the photos and videos of their beautiful hikes and play time.”

“Chad was caring and patient with my dog, and he was very responsive to my messages. He was able to stay home with her and provided regular updates, and it gave me peace of mind that she was in good hands while my husband and I were at our wedding.”

“Issac and Jordan were amazing! They had great communication before and during my pup’s stay. They provided photo updates and my pup had a great time- he was sad to leave them. I would highly recommend Issac and Jordan!”

“Baxter had a great first stay with Kristen and Ryan! He took advantage of various comfy lounging spots in their home as well as sunbathing in their backyard. Baxter was in great shape when I returned. Kristin and Ryan are very friendly and kind, and their communications were clear throughout. I received updates with pictures at least once a day, as requested. I greatly appreciated their flexibility to extend Baxter's stay a bit and coordinate a different pickup arrangement when my trip plans changed. I would certainly book with them again!”

“Robert and Brian, again, were wonderful with Nada. We feel quite comfortable leaving her with them and will absolutely leave her with them again. Thank you both ❤️”

“This is the 2nd time we used Kit to board our dog Barry. She was great! We were given regular updates on his activities. And she took such good care of him that Barry thought he was on an extended playdate. We would recommend her services anytime.”

About: I’ve been a dog person since diapers—started with my parents’ pup, then my own fur baby who lived to 18. Now I’m raising my 4‑year‑old sweetie. Dogs love my calm vibe (and maybe my treat). My friends joke I’m their “dog’s favorite human,” because I’m always the first call when they need a sitter. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home and, being between jobs, I have plenty of free time to give dogs my full attention. I love taking long walks in nature with my own dog—it’s a therapeutic boost for both of us. Living in a peaceful neighborhood and tranquil home makes it easy to provide a calm, safe environment. I typically walk 2–3 times a day, so regular exercise and companionship are always part of my schedule. Safety is a top priority in my home. I have a spacious, secure, closed balcony where dogs can enjoy fresh air safely, and my own friendly dog is happy to provide companionship for your pup. There’s also a fenced area by my entrance, which adds an extra layer of protection to prevent dogs from slipping outside. With these safeguards, you can feel confident that your pet will be cared for in a safe and welcoming environment.
“Alex did a great job looking after our dog for 3 weeks. We received regular updates and pictures throughout the trip which made us feel at ease She is quick with communications when coordinating pickup/dropoff. Overall we had a great experience and would book with Alex again!”

“Her and her partner are excellent they took my pup in and she was so happy playing with their pups thank you guys and if I need people to watch my do I will always request yall.”

Oakmore dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kelly is amazing! She watched my toy poodle, Penny, for our first weekend away without her and exceeded all expectations. The communication was great, we got lots of pictures and updates, which I loved. She even went the extra mile by bathing Penny and giving her a thoughtful gift. I appreciate how comfortable Kelly made this experience for us.

Susan took wonderful care of our dog Mikasa. As a rescue, Mikasa needs time, patience, and understanding to get comfortable with new people, and Susan handled this beautifully. She carefully followed all the instructions we provided and approached Mikasa with so much patience and determination that, by the end of the stay, they had truly become best friends. While we were abroad, Susan kept us updated every single day with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Mikasa was in such good hands. She also made sure Mikasa received her medication and paid close attention to her needs. What meant the most to us was how much effort Susan put into building trust with Mikasa respecting her boundaries, letting her set the pace, and helping her gradually gain confidence. Seeing Mikasa relax, play, and bond with her was incredibly reassuring. We're very grateful for the care, dedication, and love Susan showed Mikasa. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful and attentive sitter.
Our pup was there for just one day, but I could tell she was looking forward to going there based on how fast her tail was wagging when we got out of the car. A few weeks earlier we had a meet & great to see if this would be a good match. Clearly it was based on the tail reaction..

Barak did a nice job with Lilo. She tends to be anxious, and he seemed very patient with her, and even shared some tips about managing her behavior. Daily outdoor exercise is part of his routine. We got daily updates, prompt answers to messages, and she came home happy, not stressed.
