“Frankie had the best time at Karen’s while I was in town for a wedding! She sent me pictures and updates throughout the night. This was Frankie’s first Rover experience and I can’t lie - I was nervous about his separation anxiety. When I picked him up in the morning it was clear that he felt so comfortable around her and that made me so happy. 10/10 would book again!”
“Andrew took great care of our dog Apollo. I was apprehensive about using Rover for the first time, but Andrew quickly eased my concerns with his responsive messages and meet & greet with our dog. Apollo looked very content and well cared for when we picked him up - we’d definitely book with Andrew again and would recommend him to my friends!”
“Highly Recommended! I couldn't be happier with the care Barfie received! Nalleli did an incredible job socializing him and kept me updated with daily photos and videos, which I truly appreciated. It was so clear he was happy, well-exercised, and loved—I'll definitely be booking again!”
“Omar and his family took such great care of my Bella while I was away. From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in a warm, welcoming environment. She had a blast playing with the other dogs and soaking up all the attention they gave her. What really stood out was the communication. Omar kept me updated with messages, and pictures which made it so much easier being away from her. I could see she was happy, relaxed, and truly being cared for like one of their own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. Bella came home happy, and that says everything.”
About: I've had a dog in my home my entire life, and am always the one my friends/family turn to if they need someone to look after their pets. I have also fostered multiple dogs with leash reactivity, and have had some 1-1 work with an R+ (positive reinforcement) trainer to ensure pups can have the best experience out and about in the world while still getting their sniffs and exercise in. I occasionally run outside so I can offer to run with your pup(s) 1-2 times a week if you'd like, and I live 5 minutes away from Baron Cameron park if you like for them to play with other pups during the day at a dog park as well. Or of course we can just snuggle most of the day while I work from home. Well either way there will be lots of snuggles and pets... My last dog passed away in 2025 after a year long battle with cancer, so I have no problem giving medicine and making sure we stay on a strict schedule with food/medicine if that is what your dog needs. I look forward to becoming your pup's new best friend! I work part-time from home. I'm available for day-sitting while you're at work or overnight boarding when you're out of town. I'm typically up by 7:30, have a fenced in backyard, go on walks/runs throughout the day and love going to the dog park if your pup enjoys it! I have a 6 foot fence in my backyard that your pup can play around in. Take 2-3 x 25 minute walks around the neighborhood throughout the day and can occasionally go for 30-60 minute jogs if your pup enjoys more exercise (1-2/week)
“Leslie took great care with our boys, Bodhi and Bear. This was the first time we left them with a pet sitter. It was reassuring to get regular updates and photos for our boys from Leslie. She did a wonderful job caring for them, giving them plenty of love and activity. They seemed to settle right in and had a great stay. I highly recommend Leslie and will use her again!”
“Kendall pampered our pups with attention. We could not have asked for a better dog sitter. Both our dogs arrived happy and left happier. Daily updates, picture and a send-off gift to boot! Thanks Kendall!”
“Sujan was absolutely wonderful. He cared spectacularly for our 5 year old Goldendoodle Mango for 7 days. He was an excellent communicator and sent pictures every day of Mango in the yard, on walks, sleeping on the bed. He gave her delicious treats (and always asked first to make sure we approved.) Mango had so much fun with Sujan and his family and their dog. She was very happy and healthy when I picked her up. She even had a day or two of sadness missing her new friends! I would recommend Sujan 150% and will definitely have him watch Mango again.”
“Jill and her family made sure to keep our dog on his medication schedule and monitor his healing knee injury. It wasn’t an ideal time to go on vacation but Jill reassured me and explained to me that she had experience giving medication and that her home would be a safe environment. I came back to a happy dog that was moving better than when I had dropped him off.”
“Our dog Bonnie is sensitive and she usually gets nervous when she goes to new places. However, when we met Jennifer for the first time, she immediately started to explore Jennifer's living room, and she seemed very relaxed. When we went to pick her up, she didn't want to leave for a while. That says she had a great time in Jennifer's place. Thank you very much, Jennifer and her family!”
“I'm so glad I found Amethyst ☺️ she was wonderful with my dog Q. She sent me regular photos of Q (I don't know how she made my dog sit still and be such a good model for photos haha but she managed well!) and updates and always made sure his needs were met. And she was also very flexible and accommodating about last minute changes I had to do cause another sitter canceled. But it's all good, since I was able to book with Amethyst ☺️ My Q had a really great time with her! Thank you! 10/10 recommended her 👌”
“Our little guy had a wonderful week with Renata! She was amazing with him! She was very attentive to his preferences, and she sent updates and great pics each day. He looked relaxed in the pics, and it helped us to see him enjoying himself! Renata was super kind to us about accommodating scheduling changes. She put me at ease! Most important, in the past with a different boarder, our little puppo returned home seeming a little frazzled. But after a week with Renata, he came home relaxed and happy!! We will return!! :)”
“Alexis was fantastic to board with. I think our dog ended up having a better vacation than we did. The care our dog received was outstanding - so much so that when we came to pick him up, we got the equivalent of a "meh" from our dog. When we have boarded him at commercial kennels, he would be jumping off the leash to get to us when we would pick him up. It was clear he was given much love and care by Alexis and her family. We would absolutely book again.”
“Peppa had a great time with Tatiana. We felt very comfortable leaving Peppa with Tatiana. She is patient, calm and loving. Her home reflects that as well. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their furry one!”
“Carla and family is amazing. I boarded biscuit in the last minute and they treated biscuit as their own dog. Biscuit had an amazing time there and Carla sent me a lot of pictures and updates on biscuit. I will highly recommend Carla !!”
“This is an absolutely fantastic choice for a dog-sitter, in my mind. Leslie was loving, caring and she treated Frances, my terrier-dachshund with the closest and kindest attention—plenty of walks, balanced diet, happy human company to sleep with when she desired, and various places to rest—so Leslie passed those all those important measures.She also sent me photographs with comments fairly often, which delighted me and made me know that Frances was safe and happy! But then, of Great value was the fact that she always could find positive human companionship—her cousin came, and let Frances and another dog, sleep on his knee, looking utterly content, her roommate really liked Frances and showed it, and Leslie did too. AND there was always her dog, and then occasionally a neighbor’s dog or another client’s dog visiting for a number of hours. That was Heaven for Frances, and just what I was hoping for. A place where Frances could be, as Leslie put it, a member of a pack. NOT a large, in any way overwhelming pack, but a small pack, consisting of one or two or conceivably three other dogs, which she could be with. THAT and the essential human warmth which was very much present—was all I could dream of—and Leslie provided it. Thank you so, so much. I will definitely use her services again! Leslie is cause for peace of mind, great happiness and satisfaction for Frances and me.”
About: I provide thoughtful, home-based care for dogs who thrive in a calm and structured environment. As a work-from-home sitter, I’m able to give consistent attention, supervision, and a steady routine throughout the day. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs with different energy levels and temperaments, and I pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and safety. What sets me apart is that I keep things intentionally small and controlled. I take the time to understand each dog’s needs, and prioritize a low-stress experience with plenty of outdoor time, gentle structure, and a secure fenced yard. I also require a meet-and-greet to ensure the right fit, so every dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and well looked after.I keep my care intentionally small so each dog gets consistent attention and a calm environment. Doggy care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and am able to provide consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day.Dogs in my care are part of a calm, structured routine that includes regular outdoor time in my fenced yard, walks on nearby trails ( My fenced backyard opens directly to walking trails for easy access to outdoor time and walks) along with plenty of time to rest and relax indoors. I build my schedule around the dogs I’m caring for, making sure they get a good balance of activity, attention, and downtime. On a weekly basis, I keep things predictable and low-stress, which helps dogs settle in comfortably. I’m mindful about not overbooking, so each dog receives the time and attention they need without feeling overwhelmed. Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, their care and routine remain consistent so they feel safe and at ease... When pets stay in my home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow each dog’s feeding schedule, potty routine, and any specific instructions provided by the owner. Dogs have regular access to my fenced yard for bathroom breaks and outdoor time, along with walks on nearby trails depending on their energy level. Inside the home, dogs are given a calm space to relax and are never left unsupervised for long periods since I work from home. I introduce dogs thoughtfully and only take on a small number at a time to maintain a safe and low-stress environment. I also pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and overall comfort, and I communicate with owners if anything seems off. My goal is to make their stay feel predictable, safe, and as close to their home routine as possible.
“Joanna and John took amazing care of our dogs! They checked and double checked feeding times, what treats they are allowed, potty times, etc! We received detailed daily updates and photos. Our dogs stayed for 7 nights and were given baths at the end, and we were also sent home with a thoughtful gift! This is all after I changed the drop off and pick up times a bunch of times! The pups were very well taken care of and spoiled! I would highly recommend Joanna and John anytime! 😊😊😊”

Karen is an amazing pet sitter, we trust her implicitly. Our pup gets frequent eye infections and must be treated, Karen noticed he had a red eye and she took him to our vet for treatment. We do not worry while he is in her care which makes our trips more enjoyable.
Nalelli and Alvaro took wonderful care of our dog Ivy and were responsive to our last minute booking request. We received many many photos a day and reports on how she was doing. They and their daughters are wonderful dog sitter and we are booking with them again next month!
We’ve been using her for a couple years now and couldn’t be happier. Our dog Zara absolutely loves her, and it gives us real peace of mind whenever we travel. It’s such a relief being able to enjoy a vacation completely free of worry, knowing our dog is in good hands. Reliable, trustworthy, and clearly cares about the animals she watches…. highly recommend.
This was my first time leaving my dog with someone other than a family member. I was very nervous but didn't need to be! Gilbert and Robin took great care of my collie. They sent updates with photos and even coaxed her to eat her breakfast by adding an egg to her kibble. Anyone who lets my dog sleep on their couch gets an automatic high rating from me! I will definitely use their loving home again if I need to.
Kapil has watched my pup for over 7years now! It’s always peace of mind knowing that my dog is in great hands time after time. Kapil is very proactive in communicating updates on your pet, extremely accommodating and most of all very caring. I highly recommend Kapil!!!
Shiva took wonderful care of Chase during his stay! We really appreciated all the love, attention, and regular updates she shared with us. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Chase was happy and in such good hands. Thank you, Shiva, for treating Chase like family — we would absolutely book with you again!
