“Always so wonderful! He and his family treat our dog like their own! Always treating him so special. He even participates in family events- ice cream treats, sports games. He couldn’t be more at ease leaving our dog with them. Highly recommend!”
“I had such a great experience with Dejuan! He made me feel comfortable from the beginning by allowing me to come over for a meet-and-greet before Kane’s stay. Throughout his time with Kane, he consistently sent pictures, videos, and updates without me even having to ask. I really appreciated his communication and attention to detail. Kane came home happy and well taken care of, which means everything to me! I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their fur baby!”
“Koda is absolutely in love with Rose, she treats him like her own dog & knows exactly how to take care of him even though he has high anxiety. I'm really grateful that I have Rose as a dogsitter for Koda. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!!!”
“Mary did such a great job watching my dog for the weekend. She was super responsive from the start - we were able to get on a video call to meet very quickly and got the booking completed fast. She was communicative about pickup and drop off, sent lots of photos throughout his stay with her, and my dog looked like he was having so much fun. We would totally use her again and really appreciated how well she took care of him!”

“Tove and Jerry were terrific. All the glowing reviews regarding their home are 100% accurate. We couldn’t have been happier with the care they gave our young golden doodle. They were very flexible and worked easily with our drop off and pick up times. I received daily pictures/videos of our pup. They were very gracious hosts and treated Cooper like he was their own. A++++”
“Michelle was an amazing sitter! Her family was so welcoming and awesome with dogs. They made sure Forrest was comfortable and that they knew everything he needed while he was there. I received the best pictures of my dog and other dogs they were watching hanging out together! Already booked my dog to stay with them again! :)”
About: Hi! I’m Mary, a lifelong animal lover who understands just how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your pet. I’m an active, responsible professional with a flexible schedule and plenty of experience caring for dogs, including small breeds and senior dogs that may need a little extra patience, attention, and TLC. As a longtime fitness professional, walking is already a big part of my lifestyle, so I’m happy to accommodate everything from a leisurely neighborhood stroll to a longer, more energetic walk depending on your dog’s needs. Pet care fits naturally into my active daily routine! I’m primarily available in the afternoons through early evenings for dog walks and drop-in visits. This makes me a great option for midday potty breaks, afternoon walks, after-work check-ins, or dinner-time visits. What you can expect from me: Dependable and punctual visits Dog walks tailored to your pet’s age and energy level Drop-in visits for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks and companionship Extra patience and attention for senior dogs Plenty of affection and playtime Photos and updates during visits Careful attention to your instructions and your pet’s normal routine Respect for your home and property I know how stressful it can be to leave a pet in someone else’s care. My goal is for you to feel comfortable knowing your dog is being treated with the same kindness and attention I would want for my own.
“Lorie is terrific! The dogs were well cared for and safe in her home and fenced yard. We felt welcomed upon arrival and the dogs were ready for us with their things packed for departure.”
“Desire and her daughter were fantastic! My first time using Rover, it was a week vacation, so needless to say I was a bit nervous. They couldn't have been better. I received regular updates, and Higgins was happy and healthy. Seems it was a good vacation for both of us.”
“Cordelia was absolutely amazing. She sent pictures daily and replied everytime I sent her an email. I loved that she made sure my Pretty Girl was dressed warmly everytime she went out side. After Cordelia have her baby I pray she will continue dog sitting because I know my Girl would love to spend more time with her. I also want to thank Cordelia for reminding me of the gift God blessed me with when She gave me Pretty Girl. Pretty Girl is a very loyal, devoted, loving, and compassionate dog and sometimes I can take that for granted. Cordelia was the greatest”
“Miranda and her husband took such wonderful care of our little boy! It was great to be able to enjoy our weekend and know he was safe and sound. Great communication and flexibility!”
“Best sitter ever! Austin took my doberman Riley in when I was scrambling to find someone last minute. He sent me pictures and updated me multiple times a day. He treated Riley like his own. I’ve tried a few different sitters and he is the best by far. Could not recommend him more!”
“Jenna was really awesome! She took very good care of our cat Ms. Bailey! She texted and took pictures of her. My husband and I will love for her to take care of our cat when ever we go out of town. We highly recommend her. To care for your pet.”

James is fantastic! We appreciate how loving and patient he is with our energetic lab, Cleo. He is great about sending reassuring updates, photos, and video which we truly appreciate. James is also very chill and laid-back and flexible with timing associated with pick up and drop off. Thanks again for another great stay James!!
This was Linford’s second stay with Mary, and we would definitely book with her again. Mary kept us updated on what she and Linford were up to throughout his stay. He was excited to see her when we dropped him off and excited to see us when we picked him up. A perfect combination!
We had such a great experience. This was my first time using Rover and I was really nervous. Devon was super communicative and really made our dog feel comfortable. Our dogs got along great. Devon only hosts one family’s pets at a time, so I wasn’t worried about additional complications. 100% would book again!!!
Karlee has watched Pongo several times. In fact, I don't travel unless she can watch him. She sends pictures daily without having to be asked and even gives cute stories that warm my heart when I'm away from my baby. Karlee answers texts right away and I never have to worry about a thing. I can live life. She is a godsend
Such an amazing experience! I got lots of pictures, regular updates, and it was obvious how much Mike really loved and cared for her like his own. She looked so happy and comfortable the whole time, which gave me peace of mind. I’d book again in a heartbeat and highly recommend!
Obie loved her stay with Aspen! Especially hanging out with her new friend Clifford — the sweetest most gentle pup. Aspen sent photos and updates throughout the day which we so appreciated. We needed to extend Obie’s stay last minute and we were so grateful she was able to accommodate. Aspen was very easy to communicate with and we know she took the best care of her. Obie will definitely be back!
I never have to worry about my dog when she is with Kimberly. She’s great about sending pictures and videos so that I can see how my dog is doing. My dog has never looked stressed in any of the pictures at Kimberly’s, and that is unusual for my tender hearted dog! I will continue using Kimberly as long as she’s available!!
Jessica was wonderful watching our dog Alfie! We met prior to make sure she and her dog would be comfortable with him. She’s very flexible and accommodating with timing and was so great with sending updates and pictures while we were gone. I would highly recommend her, she’s very caring and responsible! :)
This was my first time using Rover or even boarding my dog with someone who wasn’t a family member. Needless to say, I was pretty nervous about it and when I dropped my dog off, she was so worried and upset. But Hannah was a pro. She never made me feel like I was asking about my dog too much and alleviated any worries I had, always with a calm and understanding demeanor. Sent plenty of pics and updates and it wasn’t long before my dog warmed up to her. Thanks again Hannah!
