“Whitney and Michael T. are absolutely incredible! From the moment I met them, I could tell they are not just pet caregivers but true animal lovers with a wealth of knowledge about our four-legged companions. Their warm and loving family creates such a nurturing environment that I immediately felt at ease leaving our precious June Bug in their care. What really sets Michael and Whitney apart is their ability to provide younger pups with invaluable socialization opportunities. They create a safe and fun space for dogs to learn how to interact and just be dogs. It’s rare to find caregivers who understand this so deeply, and their patience is unmatched—even when a little accident happens (which, let’s face it, is inevitable with young pups). They handle everything with grace and kindness. Their training skills are nothing short of extraordinary. June Bug came home not just happy and well cared for but also better behaved! They went above and beyond, and I could tell they treated her as if she were their own. I truly couldn’t have asked for more. Michael and Whitney took the most amazing care of our girl, and I’ll absolutely be using their services again. If you’re looking for someone to care for your fur baby with love, expertise, and patience, don’t hesitate—Whitney and Michael are the best!”


“Noria continues to be the best pet sitter and dog walker we have had. Nala ( my dog) really loves her and I am comfortable going away and leaving my dog in her care knowing that Noria is very trustworthy, caring and reliable!”


“A A+ experience. My dog is an 2 year old extremely hyper rough playing Schnoodle. Was very nervous if Jenny could handle him with this being the first time he was left with a stranger for 2 days and his rough puppy age personality. I was amazed when i received multiple texts updating me how well he was doing and how well he reacted to her two little boys. Sometimes the intelligence of a dog is questioned, however, I know they all can detect an environment that is tense or without any sense of love. Based on the way our Baxter’s behavior was right the beginning, its speaks for itself. This was a great relief for us knowing we have place where he could go in the future where he’s happy and treated the same as if he’s with us.”


“Our five-year-old French bulldog had a great time at Tanvi’s! He stayed for a week and loved her huge backyard. He felt at home from the very start because he had no issues eating right away. Really appreciated her ongoing communication (we got multiple photos and videos throughout his stay), and her accommodating and positive attitude! Definitely recommend.”


“Lisa and her family were so welcoming of our dog Appa! She was very communicative and we loved the photos and text updates. She also made sure that our dog and Bear got to meet each other in a safe setting from the start so we really appreciated that as well! The fenced yard was the perfect playground for the pups.”


“Leo had an amazing time with Ginnette. She cared for him like he was her own baby and shared so many updates throughout the day which made me feel at ease. Highly recommend her!!”


“Ryan was absolutely amazing with my dog, Rio! He took great care of him, was super attentive, and kept me updated the whole time. Rio came back happy and relaxed, which says a lot. I’ll definitely be leaving Rio with Ryan again. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”


“Shadow looked to be well taken care of during his stay. Tom took him on some long walks, spent plenty of time playing with him and kept us updated with pictures. We would hire Tom again to watch Shadow.”


“Pardeep was incredibly responsive to all my questions. Throughout Grady’s stay, I received regular updates with great photos so I always knew how things were going. It was clear he cared for Grady and treated him like his own. I would absolutely recommend Pardeep to anyone looking for an attentive and caring place for their dog.”



“This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to have Xinzhi take care of Ruby over the weekend! Ruby had a blast hanging out with Xinzhi’s dog Bella. Xinzhi took great care of Ruby and she felt at home with her hospitality! She kept me updated through out the weekend posting pictures and videos of Ruby, taking her for long walks and outdoor plays and ensuring Ruby was comfortable just like being at home. I did not worry a bit about Ruby! I will use Xinzhi again for Ruby!”


About: Does your dog bark at invisible intruders, get the zoomies at random times of the day, or act like you’ve abandoned them forever when you leave for 5 minutes? Same. I’m Amber—a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to an Italian Greyhound who keeps me laughing (and on my toes) every single day. Dogs tend to warm up to me quickly because I meet them right where they are at. I know first hand what it’s like to care for dogs with big personalities, and I have a knack for helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m the fun human friend your pup never knew they needed. I’ll be their hype woman, adventure buddy, and professional snuggle supplier while you’re away. I’m just getting started on Rover, so please give me a chance to show you and your pup how much care, patience, and fun I bring to every walk, playtime, and cuddle session. LOOK NO FURTHER—IF DOGS COULD SWIPE RIGHT, I’D BE A MATCH. I’m an early riser, I start my day around 5 a.m. My work hours are 7 to 3, but I am available for walks or visits before and afterwards. When off the clock, I’m either adventuring with my sidekick or chilling at home. No kiddos or partner so I have plenty of flexibility and free time to give your pup all the love and attention they deserve. When caring for pets, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness whether I’m at their home or mine. In their own space, I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—feeding, walking, playtime, and any special needs they have—to help them feel secure and relaxed. If pets come to my home, I create a calm, welcoming environment with plenty of toys, cozy spots to rest, and lots of attention to make them feel right at home. I always communicate with owners to understand their pet’s personality, preferences, and any health or behavior concerns so I can tailor my care to each pet..

“Sayak and his family took excellent care of our two dogs. Communication was clear and timely, he adjusted to the needs of our dogs, sent us updates on their progress, and our dogs had a great time. We would be very happy to leave our dogs in Sayak’s care next time.”


About: I’ve been taking care of dogs my whole life! I grow up with every animal you could think of! I would love to take care of your fur baby! I do currently work full time but I am completely off 2-3 times a week! My schedule is pretty flexible and could work around your needs! I have a fenced in- extremely safe yard! I also love taking dogs on walks if needed as well! I do not mind if your dogs is crate trained or not!

“Excellent care! Jacquelyn and Bryan were super attentive and loving to my Ollie girl. They sent pictures and updates throughout and I felt comfortable for the entirety of the stay that she was in good hands. Highly recommend :)”

About: Hello! Come and hangout with Me, Bella (4yr old chocolate lab), Levii (3yr old Husky) and Hunter (8yr old cat)! I have many years of experience caring for animals as well as worked at a doggy day care previously! My dogs are very energetic so your pet will have a great time. With my large yard and spacious living room there is so much room for your pets to play and lots of toys. I will care for your pet as if they were mine. I have great attention to detail so they will be in good hands. I’m currently off on weekends and Mondays so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pet throughout those days. My remote days are flexible so availability will be on a per week basis. I have a large fenced in yard and two great dogs that will keep your pet entertained! I have a very friendly cat that naps all day. My large living room allows for plenty of space to play. I live in a very walkable town so walks are easy.

About: Before starting my own business, I was a kindergarten teacher or many years. I work from home part time. We have 2 dogs in our family. I am running my own business from home, so I have plenty of time to care for your dog. I am available for boarding anytime. I have an acre of property in a quiet neighborhood. I have 2 friendly dogs who can keep your dog company. I can easily create your dog if necessary.

About: I am a fellow dog Mom looking to give the care I would expect for my own Lucy Goosey. I have also fostered dogs and just find joy being around dogs. A house full of dogs is a happy home. I work from home and find the best way to take mental breaks is to walk and play with my dog. I am my happiest in the sun with a pup at my feet. In my home they will be part of the family. I have two boys who love dogs and a dog who loves to play or let your dog chill; whichever there speed is she can match ( but she loves it when it’s play!) In your home I will respect your space and ensure your dog is filled with extra love while your gone and make the visits count with whatever their favorites are wether that’s belly rubs, fetch, long walks or all of the above!

Jake’s first time with Allison went very well. He’s usually very nervous when we leave him but seemed very comfortable with her. She sent updates and picks to let us know he was doing well which made us feel better as well. Will definitely request future sitting services!

I trusted Xin with my 4 month old toy poodle and she was amazing!!! I can not tell you how at ease I was during my 8 day vacation. Xin was so knowledgeable and professional asking lots of questions about my puppy and my communication preferences. Xin was so attentive to my puppy’s needs and taught her so much and me as well. Xin sent lots of cute pics and videos and helpful text updates on how my pup was doing. I highly recommend Xin and so does my pup!

Alexis was extremely accommodating in setting up a meet and greet on short notice which I very much appreciated. She took great care of my dog Kona and provided daily updates and pictures. I highly recommend Alexis and her family and will definitely use them again!

I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog Birdie received while I was away! Kate was awesome - attentive, reliable, and clearly loves dogs. I got plenty of updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. Birdie was clearly in great hands, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again! Highly recommend!

Raquel is very responsible and friendly with my dog. Every time she sends me a picture I see how much Lucky is happy and enjoying his time. Raquel takes amazing care of Lucky and treats him like her own. It’s such a relief to know that our baby is in good hands while we are away. I highly recommend her and definitely I will be booking with her again.
