“Before this booking, we had never left our dog with anyone outside of family, and we were really nervous about it. But after meeting Jessica, all our worries disappeared. She made the entire experience AMAZING! She kept us constantly updated, and our dog looked so happy in every photo. I would wholeheartedly recommend her and her family to anyone. She treats your dog with the same love and care you’d expect from family. Thank you so much, Jessica! 100/100”
“This was our first time leaving our beloved baby and using the Rover app. I’m so glad we found Ms. Robin. She took care of our dog while on vacation and we couldn’t have asked for a better first experience. ❤️?”
“Lindsey and her family provided excellent care for Max. They made him feel like part of the family. Max is a gentle giant; however he does have major separation anxiety,which can be annoying to most people. They provided daily pictures and feedback to inform us how Max was doing. Thank you for taking awesome care of him, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation. He came home happy and full of energy. We will definitely use Lindsey's services again. We 100% recommend them to anyone else who needs a dog sitter.”
“Lori took great care of our dogs. I received pictures every few hours which reassured me they were doing fine. Lori was also responsive to my messages. We will definitely be asking Lori to watch them again next we need a caregiver for the dogs:)”
“Andy boarded our two boys for a night and was very responsive, keeping us updated with pictures, and playing with them. Our dogs got along great with his dog Luna.

“My dog Moon loved his visit with Denise and her dog Andy. Decent size fenced in yard for play, which my dog loved. Updates and pictures were sent. Moon even ate his food while there which he rarely does even for his normal sitter. I should mention she is very accommodating. I was a last minute request and my hours for pickup and drop-off were odd. Would definitely use Denise again.”

“Always such a pleasure and so comforting knowing that I can drop Shea off and KNOWING that she is well cared for and having a great time. This time, she was even picked up!! For a velcro type dog, German Shepherd, she didn’t even look back! She was ready to go and have some fun with her extended pack!! Whether overnight or for a week, Kiara is the first person I ask!! Thanks again!!”
“I was so nervous boarding our two dogs with a Rover sitter vs a facility, but both Amy and her husband took SUCH good care of our babies. I had a family emergency and had to leave them for five days. They went on tons of walks, got ample amounts of snuggles, and I was updated with pictures every step of the way. I could focus on family knowing they were in excellent hands, and we will certainly be using them again!”
“George (Chip).was great! Brandy was well cared for. He provided updates and was even able to accommodate a last minute change where she needed to stay an extra night. Would highly recommend. Thanks Chip!”
About: My boyfriend and I have both grown up with dogs. We have both cared for friends and families dogs when needed. We have a 14 month old spaniel who weighs 30lbs! We have a fenced in yard and plenty of free time to care for your dog! I currently work from home, so I am home during the day and able to care for pets who require all different levels of attention. My boyfriend is a business owner is also home quite frequently. We have a large, fenced in back yard for the dogs to safely run around. We love to throw the ball in the backyard and take the dogs for walks.
About: I have been a dog mom for more than 9 years but have grown up with a house full of animals, so I feel my experience with animals goes far beyond a decade. I have crate trained multiple puppies, and litter box trained kittens and rabbits. I am now learning senior care for my own fur-baby, a Yorkie mix. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from the smallest baby to the biggest, bestest pups. You can trust your pup will be in excellent hands. When boarding at my house, your pup will get lots of outdoor playtime. Or, for senior dogs or tiny babies who prefer to a cushy indoor life, snuggles would be on the schedule! Whatever the need is! I spend all my weekend time at home, so your pup would not be left unattended for any length of time. I have two dogs of my own, but there is plenty of space for new friends in my home. My 9-year-old pup, Daisy, is more cat than she is dog, and tends to seek out high places to avoid new fur friends. But my 1-year-old Australian shepherd, Dax, is always eager to play. Dax is submissive, and will lay on his back to play no matter the size of your pup. Both of my doggies are also good with cats. I guarantee that stays with me are far more comfortable, safe and fun than any traditional boarder or kennel -- all of which means less stress for nervous pet parents! I am available almost every weekend. I have two dogs that I have built my schedule around. Working out of the home most week days means I spend all my weekend time at home. My hours are flexible and bend entirely at the will of what my pets need -- the same would be true for any fur-babies I am trusted to sit. My home offers a nice sized, mostly private yard. It is not fenced. Dogs with off-leash training have plenty of space to run without leaving the yard. Leashed play time is also not a problem. I am very active with my dogs, running alongside them to play outside or going for long walks on our quiet street. Pets are always 100% supervised when outside.
About: Growing up with three dogs taught me invaluable lessons in responsibility, compassion and the joy of companionship as I navigated their diverse personalities while ensuring they receive love exercise and proper care. I hope to bring that experience to your pet. My schedule varies week to week. Some days I will be gone to work for eight hours but all days I will be able to give a long walk either before &/or after work. I can also come and provide exercise time doing lunch I will make it a priority to leave the space better than you left it. You deserve knowing that your pet and pet’s home is safe.
“Bodie had a great time with Sophie and her family. Her big fenced in back yard provided the perfect outdoor playground for Bodie to enjoy playing around with her other dogs and she treated and loved him like part of the family. I will definitely use her again .”
“Diana was very attentive to Rocky’s needs and routine as a young puppy! She frequently communicated with me and sent pictures to give me assurance that Rocky was adjusting and doing well as a new client. I will likely to book her services again. Thank you!”
