1. Vanessa G.

“Vanessa is so sweet! She took care of my sweet Onyx and provided lots of photos and communication. She even washed his bed before I picked him up which was very nice. Onyx seems to have enjoyed his time there too. He is usually full of energy, but slept when he got home, so he must have been worn out.”


2. Kathryn F.

“We felt so comfortable with our dogs in Kathryn's care. She gave us a daily update and promptly responded when we had any inquiries. Her huge yard and lovely neighborhood were great for peaceful walks and plenty of running around. Her dog Zsa Zsa is a wonderful ambassador for their home too, she was very chill with our dogs! They were happy to see us, but definitely sad to leave!”


3. Lauren S.

“Lauren is amazing. She sent so many videos and pics and provided tons of info to keep us from worrying about the pup while we were away. Loki made so many friends and was well taken care of. Will be using again. Thanks Lauren and Bentley!!!”


4. Nelly M.

“Nelly took great care of my snoopy. She gave him lots of walks and cuddles. She was great at giving him his medicine. She was very accommodating with snoopy’s separation anxiety and needs. Always sent pictures when I asked and communicated any concerns she had right away.”


5. Kerry W.

“Kerry took such great care of Junie while we were away for the holidays- even getting her a stocking for christmas! She was very communicative and flexible, taking Junie a night earlier than planned to accommodate our schedule. Kerry sent daily updates and photos and gave Junie lots of love. You should feel confident Kerry will take the best care of your pet. Thanks Kerry!”


6. Kelly R.

“Kelly was great and I felt comfortable leaving my pup with her. She was quick to respond to my request, to set up a meet and greet, and easygoing re: drop off and pickup. I will gladly book her again the next time I have a need.”


7. Journey D.

“Our pups had a great stay with lots of long walks and relaxing times! Drop off and pick up were very easy and Journey was very helpful and flexible when we were coordinating. Would love to have them stay again!”


8. Katie T.

“Katie did an amazing job watching my dog Luna for 12 days while I was abroad! She was an easy and clear communicator, and she sent a ton of super adorable photos. It was clear that my dog was super happy and well cared for, and got along well with Katie’s sweet pup Henry. Absolutely recommend!!”


9. Christine J.

“Christine was wonderful. Teddy felt right at home as soon as we got there and quickly loved her which put me at ease. She sent me photos and gave me updates on how Teddy was doing. Her home has a fenced back yard and other pups for Teddy to play with. I could tell he had a great time and was exhausted when we got home. Sign of a good visit! Will definitely book again! Thanks so much, Christine!”

13. Isabelle R.

“Isabelle was very responsive during my older yorkie’s weekend stay and sweet to my shy pup. Her flexibility made coordinating pick up and drop off quick and convenient. I’ll definitely use Isabelle any time our girl needs taking care of when we’re out of town!”


14. Chynna P.


“My dog (Misty) stayed with Chynna for 3 days while I was out of town and she took good care of her. She shared daily updates and photos and was very responsive to my messages during this time. I highly recommend Chynna as we had very good experience with her.”


15. Michael B.

“Michael was extremely patient and kind with our pup while we were dealing with a busy wedding weekend. Our dog isn’t usually too warm towards new folks, but it seemed like she was having a great time by the time we picked up her at the end of the weekend. He also helped us a TON by making sure she was on top of her daily medication. Thanks for being so great to Peanut!”

About: I work from home and can watch your dog while you are working during the work week. I have a 3 year old Maltipoo who is playful and friendly. The dogs will never be unsupervised. When your dog is with me, I will not leave my place without them. I can also send pictures during the day as I’m sure you’ll miss them! I’m pretty flexible so let me know your needs and I will take care of your baby as if they were mine. Since I work from home, I’m looking to dog sit during the week while I’m working. But I can also be available during the weekend. I have a trail right in front of my building as well as a field across the street. I’ll accommodate any dogs needs and take them out as often as your dog needs. Your dog will be treated like family! Let me know if you’d like to meet or video chat before you make your decision! It’s of course important that our dogs get along - Louis is very friendly and loves other dogs.


17. Celia T.

“Celia is a wonderful caretaker, kind, and generous. My dog got plenty of exercise and I received daily photos and also status updates. I would definitely book future stays for my dog with Celia!”


18. Donna M.
“Donna has been such a big help with our 3 year old dog, Oakley. She is a very loving and responsible sitter and dog mama herself. Oakley was immediately comfortable around Donna, despite being a shy dog, and he loves getting to spend time with her. It’s also nice to know that Donna cares for Oakley as she would her own dog. In the warmer weather she will play and relax in the dog park with them for extended periods of time to get their wiggles out. I would recommend her to anyone for their dog sitting needs!”


19. Yujia Q.

“Julia is a perfect dog Sitter. It has been the first time I used Rover and I was a bit worried as I left my dog for more than 2 weeks but the kindness and responsiveness of Jujia allowed me to relax and spend a wonderful vacation abroad . Many thanks Jujia!!! For sure she will be my dog Sitter for the next vacations!”


20. Alli M.


“Alli is a great sitter and loves animals! She takes excellent care of our golden retriever puppy and constantly sent us pictures and updates. We’ll be bringing our dog back!”
