“Lucia was able to accommodate my last minute boarding request for my puppy. She's communicative, flexible, and provided a very welcoming home. I received multiple photos a day and even came back to a groomed dog. I would recommend Lucia!”
“Alex is a fantastic sitter. She sent me lots of photos of Hank during my trip, and when circumstances held me up for an extra day, she was willing to extend the booking. I can feel confident leaving Hank with her, knowing that he will be in good hands, and I highly recommend Alex to any pet parent.”
“Laura and her husband's love for dogs shines through in everything they do. They truly treated my dog as if it was their own. My pup had a minor medical issue (nothing to do with their care) and they made sure he got prompt care and expertly administered his medication. I loved the frequent photo and video updates. They rival some of the professional photos I've had taken! Will use again!”
“Lindsay and her family were so sweet and accommodating. They went out of their way to learn about my puppy and sent updates. They were there when I needed them. Thank you!”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I grew up with dogs and over the last 10+ years became a huge cat person as well, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and needs. Since I work from home, pets get plenty of attention, supervision, playtime, and walks throughout the day instead of being left alone for long periods. I currently have two cats, so I understand how important it is to trust someone treating your pets like family. I’m dependable, patient, active, and love spending time outdoors getting exercise with pets while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting in your home depending on your pet’s needs. I also enjoy getting my steps in and staying active, so walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to while making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. In my home, pets will have a clean, calm, and supervised environment with plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. I do currently have two cats, so I ask that dogs staying with me are cat-friendly. In a client’s home, I respect your pet’s routine, follow feeding/walking instructions carefully, and make sure they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. I believe pets should feel safe, loved, and treated like family in any environment. I have a pet-friendly backyard space for supervised outdoor time, walks, and play. Since the yard is not fenced in, safety and supervision are always a priority.
“I loved Gary and his wife they were soooo good to Teddy I didn’t even have to worry about my dog for the first time ever . Teddy can’t wait to come back !!! Thanks guys see you again soon”
“Breanna was everything we could have asked for in a sitter! She sent lots of photos and updates, had toys for our dog to play with, and even took him for his favorite treat, a pup cup! She was very communicative and asked great questions to make sure she knew everything he needed. I'd definitely hire her again!”
“Ali was sweet and sent us pictures of our pup while she dogs at over a weekend. She was friendly with us and our pup in our introduction a few days before our weekend away and provided great care while we were gone.”
“Joe took great care of Sadie! She can be a bit nervous with new people sometimes but settled right in with Joe and the other pups. Will be bringing Sadie back for my next overnight trip!”
“Nicole watched my dog while I was out of town and did a great job! I got plenty of updates, her home was lovely, and my old dog seemed so happy. 10/10 would book again!”
“This is the first time Brody has stayed in someone else’s home without us. What a good experience Brody had. And we feel very comfortable leaving him with Ellyn again. He was well cared for in every way.”
“Krista was absolutely amazing! I really struggle with leaving them with strangers, but she was so accommodating and kept me posted on their stay every day. She made them feel so at home. Everything I would do for them, she did. I absolutely love her and wouldn’t trust them with anyone else.”
“Erin was an excellent sitter for my nervous Bijou. She was extremely patient with her and respected her space. The whole trip Erin sent me updates and pictures on a regular basis, which soothed my own personal separation anxiety.”
“Victoria was amazing and I felt so much better leaving my dog here than I would have if he would have been in a kennel. She sent updates twice a day, was super responsive, and my Henry felt right at home. Thank you so much!!!”
About: Animals have been part of my life since day one. I grew up with dogs and cats of all personalities! I currently share my home with Kisses, my calico, and Teddy, my German Shorthaired Pointer — one of the highest-energy breeds out there — so if your dog goes a mile a minute, I'm more than ready for it!! Over the years I've dog sat for all sizes and breeds — from tiny lap dogs to large, boisterous pups — and I treat every single one like they're my own. Your pet will be loved, played with, and completely spoiled. My home has a fully fenced backyard with plenty of room to run, zoom, and explore that's perfect for dogs who need to burn off some energy. I'm also comfortable administering medication, so pets with special health needs are absolutely welcome. Your baby will get the same attentive care at my place that they get at home. Whether your pet needs a calm, cozy stay or a high-energy playmate, I've got them covered. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I work remotely with a very flexible schedule, which means pet care is never an afterthought. It's woven into my whole day. I'm home the majority of the week, and on the rare occasion I do step out, I'm never gone for more than 3 hours. Your pet will always have someone present, attentive, and ready to play, cuddle, or just keep them company. No long stretches alone, ever. My home is set up thoughtfully for both dogs and cats. The layout is split-level, with cats having full run of the upstairs and dogs enjoying the main floor plus access to the fully fenced backyard — plenty of space to play, explore, and burn energy safely. The two never have to share space unless everyone is comfortable. I do have a resident calico and a German Shorthaired Pointer, both of whom are friendly and social, so I do ask that visiting pets are comfortable around other animals of their kind. I always offer a free meet-and-greet before booking so we can make sure everyone — pets and people — feels good about the stay before any commitment is made. My home is puppy-proofed and high-energy-dog-ready, and I have 24/7 SimpliSafe security monitoring for added peace of mind. You can expect regular photos and updates throughout every stay because you shouldn't have to wonder how your pet is doing. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions exactly. Your routines, your rules — meal times, crate preferences, favorite toys, walking routes — I stick to all of it. I respect your home as if it were my own, always clean up after your dog outside, and scoop litter boxes daily. Your pet's comfort and your peace of mind are the whole point.

“100% would recommend Ric to care for your pups. Great daily updates and quick response time on bookings. Oscar stayed 1 full week and certainly felt at home. Thanks!!”
“Adrienne is a true dog lover. She was sweet and patient with my large (and overdue for a bath) Golden, and sent pictures and a video! It was so helpful to put us at ease. He was calm and happy when we picked him up. ”
“Phoebe loved her stay at Matthew and Emma’s house! This was our first time ever leaving Phoebe and they made her transition easy! It was so nice knowing she was in good hands. They even set up a pool for the dogs during the hot days! Can’t thank them enough for taking such good care of our girl!”
Plum pet parents share their Rover experiences
Daniel was amazing with my dogs! He sent pictures and videos, updated me everyday about them during their stay. One of my dogs is very extroverted and adventurous, the other one is shy and takes a bit to warm up to people, and Daniel was great dealing with their very different personalities. He also maintained their routines as best as possible. One thing to note is that his dog Koda is a sweet baby, very happy and loves so much to be with other dogs! He is definitely the life of the party lol. My dogs and him became very good friends, it was so good to see all the pictures and videos of all 3 playing running around their backyard together. They had a blast! Thank you to Daniel, Marisa and their Koda, you're an awesome family and I am so happy Kaya and my Koda got to stay with you! We will come back for sure when needed! 😊
Beatriz watched our 16 1/2 year old, Toby 3x now and her unending love and compassion for dogs never goes unnoticed. She sends many daily pictures, videos, and updates which are so appreciated. She has provided us with excellent recommendations for geriatric dogs for food & supplements as her knowledge is superior with the geriatric population. We recommend Beatriz 100%, 10/10 to anyone!! She is one of a kind!!
Becca and her husband were very gracious and friendly when taking our 8 year old dog Tazz for two overnights. Due to our travels we had to change the drop-off time and the pick-up time by 3 hours and Becca was very accommodating and flexible. We really appreciated their help and would feel comfortable bringing Tazz back again, next time we are in the area again.
