“Lee is incredible! We boarded our dog Mochi with her for two weeks while we traveled, and Lee took wonderful care of her. Mochi can be nervous around new people and dogs, and Lee made sure she was comfortable and safe in her care. Lee is also super communicative and responsive, and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend her!”


“This was our second time having Sara board our pup, and she was awesome just like she was last time! It was over the New Year and we had forgotten to drop off our dogs thunder coat, but she did an amazing job helping him get through the stressful night of fireworks. She’s very communicative, responsive, and responsible, and I highly recommend her to anyone!”


“Sunday has been through a lot of difficult changes recently—a move, the loss of her doggy best friend and just normal growing up. Sunday is a sweet girl but can be high energy, anxious and a little mischievous. Megan and Jenny handled Sunday like absolute pros. Sunday was entertained with walks and lots of play time in their sweet house/yard. Jenny + Megan are responsible, reliant, and absolutely in love with their dog friends, not to mention flexible and easy-going—they treated Sunday like their own and I feel so thankful to have found such loving people to look after my girl. From the very first interaction they have been so responsive and accommodating! I hope to rebook them again soon, just so Sunday can get her fix!”


“Kelly is truly a rare gem. We were so lucky to find her on Rover. Having a puppy with true separation anxiety requires suspending absences. Knowing Kelly will never leave Nino alone is so comforting. She’s also great with regular updates and pictures which we appreciate so much. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Nino!”



“So grateful to have found Jeff and Beth! This was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter and felt so at ease. They do a great job with updates and welcomed my dog into the family. When we got home, she seemed happy, relaxed and social. They are great communicators. It was super easy to facilitate meet and greet, and I knew from their thoughtful questions that they were responsible and conscientious dog sitters.”


“My puppy had another great stay with his Asian Aunties! He went on plenty of long walks and came home nice and relaxed. This time, he needed to take some medicine and Karen & Hisako did a great job making sure he took it as prescribed. He can't wait to for his next visit! Thanks for taking such great care of him!”


“I cannot recommend Danielle enough! She was the perfect dog sitter for Nova while I was away on my bachelorette trip. Danielle went above and beyond to care for Nova, keeping me updated daily and even surprising her with a lovely dog vest. Not only did she pamper Nova, but she also gave her a bath, leaving Nova smelling amazing and with soft, fluffy fur. I truly appreciate Danielle's exceptional care and attention to detail. I would rate her 10/10 and wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter!”


“Alexandra is a great sitter. She was very careful to gather information so she could personalize care for my dog. And she sent text and video updates. Would definitely take my dog here again!”


“Andrea is wonderful! She’s so kind and caring with my little dog. He wasn’t feeling 100% when I dropped him off. She took extra good care of him, made sure he got plenty of rest, and sent me lots of updates and photos. Excellent experience and I will definitely call on her again. Thanks!!!”



“Kim and her partner were amazing dog sitters! They sent timely, proactive updates and made sure my pup was well acclimated with their dogs. Would definitely recommend!”


“Robert and Brian went above and beyond when they took care of my dog last weekend! They are reliable, experienced, caring, and I would highly recommend them. My 70lb dog, who can be quite shy around new people, quickly warmed up to them during the meet & greet, which is a testament to their patience and experience with shy dogs. They also took time to answer all my questions and show me around where the dog would stay/the yard during the meet and greet. Throughout the weekend I received regular updates, including photos and videos, which really put my mind at ease. Robert and Brian took my dog on long walks, spent time playing tug, and even designed enrichment activities like painting for my dog. My dog returned happy and healthy. I am grateful to Robert and Brian for their care and would board my dog with them again.”


“Oski had a wonderful time on his sleepover with Diksha! She so obviously loves dogs and if your dog is social like mine, they'll get to meet Diksha's neighbors and their dogs when they're there, too! Diksha sent photos of her playing with Oski, and was very caring and responsible. I would definitely like to have her watch Oski again!”


About: Dogs are a part of the family, and we always treat our guest dogs as such. We love hosting and caring for dogs in our home, which has a yard for play and bathroom breaks. We believe in specialized attention and plenty of affection. I work from home with flexible hours. My dog and I go to the dog park daily and goes for long evening walks, with frequent bathroom breaks in the yard. Your dog is welcome to join on these excursions and more. I have a fenced-in yard, and your dog will be the only one (other than my dog) that stays here, ensuring attention and care. Your dog would most likely sleep in the bedroom with me, unless he/she displays a strong preference otherwise.

“April is by far one of the best rover sitters I have ever encountered. We decided to do a meet and greet beforehand. April was so very in kind in letting myself and little Kobi come into her home. This was a first for me as all of my previous meet and greets were done at a park, on a walk, etc. this allowed for me to see where Kobi would be staying and give some ups on his behaviors, etc. She was so very generous in answering all of my questions and I felt so much at ease knowing that I was able to give her a proper download well in advance. Kobi stay went swimmingly! I received a lot of photos and updates. April kept me up to date with the going’s on and made sure to run things by me as the days progressed. I feel so very fortunate to have found her and I can’t wait to book with her again! Do not hesitate to use April as she will take great care of your little one.”


“Chanakarn and Jake were wonderful with our Aussie/Golden Jasper. You can see from the reviews and repeat customers that they are highly qualified sitters. We received daily photos during our 4-day trip out of the country to keep tabs on Jasper. We also felt good about the 24/7 attention and social interaction with other dogs who we're staying at the same time. This is by far the best boarding option for a dog when you can't take them with you. Highly recommended over any traditional boarding where your dog spends a lot of time alone, and you pay for everything including 1-on-1 affection. While we'd prefer to take Jasper with us everywhere, it's good to know we have a loving place he can stay locally.”


“Mary is absolutely incredible. Our dog, Finn, is a quirky senior who is often slow to trust strangers - within 24 hours of being with Mary, he was asking her for pets and cuddles! That tells you all you need to know. She was extremely communicative, sent us lots of cute pictures and overall left us so at ease knowing our little guy was cared for. Can’t recommend her enough!”


“Great experience boarding our pup with Karen. It is difficult to find someone you can trust with taking care of your pup where you will be comfortable they will make the right decisions if anything unexpected arises. We are glad we spent the time to find and board with Karen.”


“Benito was well cared for and happy during his stay. Isaac and Jordan followed the care guide we provided and sent frequent updates. Definitely rebooking when the need comes up Thanks again!”


“I really appreciated how responsive and flexible Eleanna was about during the booking process and while caring for our dog. She took such great care of our dog, spent so much quality time with him playing fetch and walking him and provided us with updates throughout his stay with great pictures! I highly recommend her as a sitter.”
