“I was very satisfied with my dog sitter, Lyuba. I received daily updates and photos of my dog throughout the entire three days she had my dog. He appeared to be very happy each time I received photos of him. There is nothing like having that peace of mind that your family member is safe and happy. I highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! I’m Lauren — a lifelong animal lover with decades of hands-on pet care experience. I grew up in a home that always had dogs (usually three!), and I started dog-sitting back in college in the early 2000s. One of my favorite long-term clients had a huge white German Shepherd who growled at everyone. By evening on day one, he was upside down in my lap, getting a belly rub! I had two beloved dogs of my own for 15 years, and now that I have two young kids (and no current pets), I’m looking to share my love with your furry (or scaly!) family member. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, or snuggle time, I’ll treat your pet like my own. Dogs, cats, snakes, bunnies — you name it, I love them all. 💛 If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, nurturing, and genuinely passionate about animals, I’d love to help care for your pet while you’re away! I only work a few hours in the morning (9-12), so my schedule is pretty flexible — I can often accommodate daytime, evening, or even last-minute pet care needs. I’m currently available for daytime, evening, and weekend bookings. I believe pets feel most comfortable in their own home, so I’m happy to care for your dog or cat in their familiar space while you’re away. That said, if you'd prefer your pet stays with me, I do have a safe, fenced-in front yard that's great for larger dogs to get some playtime and fresh air. Inside, your pet will be treated like part of the family — couches are fair game (as long as you’re cool with it!), and my whole family will be happy to shower your pet with love, snuggles, and attention.
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing while babysitting my dog, Cooper, during my time away. She went above and beyond to give me constant updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she treated Cooper just as I would at home—he looked so happy, comfortable, and well cared for in every update. I am eternally grateful for her kindness, attentiveness, and dedication. I would wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for top-notch pet care!”
“Katie was so wonderful! My dog came home relaxed and tired from all the fun. I can tell she was properly cared for and given a lot of attention and exercise. I was so grateful for Katie’s kindness and understanding of my special, quirky dog.”
About: I have been rescuing and petsitting since I was 14 years old. I’ve had rescue articles written about how many animals I have saved and I also studied animal behavior. I have worked in animal shelters,vet clinics,doggie daycares and boarding facilities. I have saved many dogs from the streets and have been a foster parent for neglected dogs many times. Your pup will have full access to indoors and outdoors as they please I have lots of toys beds and a doggie swimming pool they can run around the house and yard whenever they want and come inside and sleep on my bed whenever they want they will have a lot of freedom if i take them for car rides I use doggie harnesses and seat belts. I will send pictures and video updates through out the day and night and whenever you ask me what they are doing I will take a video or picture of whatever they are doing and send it to you. I will even record myself administering medications for peace of mind. I’m very introverted Instead of going out with people I am out in the streets saving animals or taking care of them. I have pet sit for many people and very popular by word of mouth but wanted to try this app out incase anyone or their pet needs me I will always be here💖🐾 I'm a self employed pet sitter so I make my own schedule when I'm not getting paid for taking care of animals I am volunteering my free time feeding stray animals around the city as well as taking them to vets for medical treatment and finding them loving homes. Your pet will own the house and will be free to do whatever they please. They will be indoors with the back door open with full access to my big fenced backyard.
“This was the first time I’ve left my Hermes with someone for a long period of time and Miranda made me feel so comfortable about the process. Hermes was right at home with Miranda and her dog Benji! Loved the updates and pictures I got while I was on my vacation. Thank you so much Miranda!”
About: I have cared for dogs from a very young age. From bottle feeding newborns to caring for dogs in their later stages of life, I have the experience. I’m currently working full-time. So I would be more than happy to relieve you for personal time/vacation on weekends. Pups will have my full attention for the entire stay. No pets in home will allow me to pay full attention to your pup. My complex has isolated play areas and it’s conveniently located near a dog park.
“Tami took such great care of our little doxie Polly while we were away for 3 weeks! We hardly ever leave our dog when we go out of town so needless to say we were extremely nervous not only about how our pup would do, but how we would do as well. Tami put our minds at easy with daily text updates along with photos. Tami was always available for any questions or concern we had. Both she and her husband took Polly on daily walks and trips to the beach and she even bathed Polly the night before we returned to town so or pup would be nice and clean for extra snuggles. Our pup was so happy to see us but I have to say I think she was a little sad to leave this little doggie heaven. Also Polly loved Tami’s little yorkie Jade who was super sweet and welcoming upon Polly’s arrival. They got along great! We will absolutely be using Tami to watch our little pup again in the near future. They showered her with so much affection, played fetch with her everyday, and were so attentive to her needs as an older dog. Thank you is not enough for this wonderful family but it will have to do. Look no further for your dogs home away from home!”
“Mary & Teg are amazing!! They gave my 1.5 year old pug Ziah so much love. I felt 100% at peace and comfortable while gone on my vacation. They sent pictures, short video clips and even face timed me. She just looked happy, warm and content. I HIGHLY recommend them and will without a doubt choose Mary & Teg to watch my little girl every time!! Thank you!!!!”
“Riley is AMAZING! She’s incredibly communicative and took such good care of our dog, not to mention sent some amazing photos and kept us updated! I cannot recommend her enough.”
“We cannot say enough amazing things about Robyn! My boyfriend and I were hesitant to leave our pup with someone because he has separation anxiety and has escaped from multiple sitters in the past. Robyn made him comfortable and at home immediately, she sent multiple updates everyday, she worked with our schedule, she was truly a saint! We are so grateful we found a reliable sitter for any future needs :)”
“I will definitely be contacting Niccola with any future dogsitting needs! She was exceptionally responsive and went above and beyond to care for my dog. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a dogsitter!”
“This was my first time using Rover and my first time leaving my pup with someone she did not know; Sarah made this experience so easy and positive that I will not hesitate to book with her again. My pup is a 14 year old who needed reassurance and comfort, Sarah provided that and helped our pup feel comfortable, cozy, and safe. We got daily updates and pictures and was really communicative. Sarah was just the perfect person for my dogs needs!”
“Thomas and his family took such great care of our baby girl. She had the best time with their adorable pugs and was super tuckered out after (which is always a good thing when you have a puppy!!). Will definitely use Thomas for pup-sitting again!”
“Heidi and Phil were so great with Leo! I can tell he was in good hands and in great spirits the whole time. They made me feel at ease and sent nice updates during his stay. Thank you so very much! Leo will love to see you again soon”

We couldn’t have been happier about the genuine care & kindness shown by Thomas and his family. They were INCREDIBLY flexible with our travel situation, and we were so grateful it. Thomas and his family provided our very socially driven pooch with 1:1 companionship and playtime diversion. Again, we are so grateful for Thomas & his family.
Thank you for taking such good care of my fur babies, Paul! They really enjoyed their time in the grass, too. It gave me peace of mind and allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my activities, knowing they were in safe and caring hands with you and your family. I really appreciate all your updates and the love and attention your family gave them. Thank you so much!
Robyn was wonderful with Scoobert. We noticed he felt comfortable with her and she greeted him and gave him attention as soon as we saw her. We also met previous to his stay to make sure it was a good fit, which put our minds to ease. Thank you again for making it possible to spend time with our family visiting for the holiday.
Samer saved my life!! He was so nice and good with my dog and his dog is super friendly; he was a good playmate for my dog. It really seems like he cares very much about the animals he takes in and he’s very vigilant with all of their needs. He also took my dog very last minute, which I appreciated so much! If I ever need help again I am definitely calling Samer, the environment is incredible!
