“Dennis and Lynn were fantastic sitters for our girls. We could tell they were right at home with them and enjoyed the stay. Dennis and Lynn were great communicators. They kept in touch before and during the stay which helped ease any worry for us.”

“I honestly cannot say enough good about this stay. I left my girl with Frances for almost 2 weeks. She sent me updates and picture and my dog LOVED it! Frances stepped up when our girl unexpectedly went into her first heat right before she went to stay. I could not be more pleased and grateful for the amazing care our girl was given. Thank you Frances!!”
“Very please with using Dorian to watch our dog. I have zero complaints. We have a very active pit mix puppy. He had no problem calming him and making him feel at home. Took him for walks often and treated him kindly. Will definitely be the first person I ask next time I need someone.”

“We are so grateful to have had Brittany and her family care for our puppy Nemesis a few times now. Nemesis is growing so fast--Brittany continues to provide a loving environment with excellent care and so many fun, enriching experiences. Nemesis has such a great time with this amazing family!”

About: Hello! My name is Megan, and I want you to know you can trust your animals with me! I will treat them like they are my own. I have cared for both cats and dogs before and been a proud owner. I promise your pets will be in good hands. I am also very flexible, and am willing to work around any schedule. I do currently have a dog in my household, but she loves all animals and is very good with them. If there needs to be separation, that can be easily done. I hope you will choose me to watch over your furry friends! I can ensure to keep open communication while your pet is in my care and will send you lots of pictures as well! I am currently a stay at home mom so I have super open availability. I am willing to work around a schedule that works best for you and your furry friend I have a very friendly puppy named Maggie at home. She loves to play and make new friends. However, if your fur baby is not too fond of other animals I can have Maggie stay with family.

“Wonderful sitter. Our basement flooded and I needed a sitter to take Comet short notice so he would not be here while all the machines and saws to clear out and dry up the basement were here. Sonya and her family took him in and he had a good time. She sent pictures and he was in snuggle heaven. Will absolutely contact her again. Thank you!”

“Elizabeth went above and beyond to care for our senior lab (14 years old)! We were able to bring his bed for his comfort, but Elizabeth also had many of her own beds for him to choose from. She assisted him outdoors when he needed a boost due to my dog’s limited mobility. She gave him lots of breaks for social time and fresh air. She followed his specific meal schedule with supplements and treats. She sent updates with pictures to ease our mind. We look forward to having Elizabeth care for our senior pup again. Thank you, Elizabeth!”

“Eileen and her Pom Colin took such great care of my puppy Toto - she proactively sent me regular updates with such cute pictures and videos which I shared with my friends. I could tell she treated Toto with so much love that he whined a little as we drove away from her place. She was so sweet and communicative and I plan to use her again soon :)”

“Brittney, Landen and their family were great with our dogs Loki and Genki. My boys came back home happy and tired from all the fun they had with them over the weekend. Thank you!”

“This was our 2nd stay with Jill & Glenn— our pup was SO excited to see them again! It’s so wonderful getting to see them and our boy creating their own little bond. We know that he enjoys his little mini vacations just as much as we do, and it gives us such peace of mind when we’re away. 5 stars everytime!”


“Kirsten and Nathan went above and beyond to make sure our pup felt right at home while we were away. They kept us updated with great communication and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. So grateful to have found them! Highly recommend.”


“Ethan did a great job caring for my dog! My dog can be finicky, and Ethan was able to win him over right away. Great communication and easy last minute booking. Thank you, Ethan!”

“Morgane was absolutely fantastic with Hopper! Lots of pictures and he had a great time with her, even though he's normally pretty shy/anxious. Even when I got him back in my car at the end of the booking, he was pulling against his seatbelt to head out and go back to her!”


“My Lab was well taken care of, I received several photos over the 4 days in Dina & Irma’s care. Very reassuring! My dog had the opportunity to interact with other dogs...a very necessary skill builder for her. I will be using them again!”

“Keana was a life saver this weekend and she and Milo just clicked. I was nervous about their interaction since it was the first time meeting but milo was a good boy per usual. We will definitely see her again ❤️”


“Conrad loves staying with Marisol and Twinkie! We are a repeat boarder. Conrad has separation anxiety from my (consequence of working from home) but he goes right in to Marisol’s lovely home and is welcomed by Twinkie. Conrad spends his days napping, going for walks, napping, playing, and napping! Senior dog life!😉”

“Maile is our go to dog sitter for our sweet girl Stella. She takes such great care of our dog whenever we go on vacation. We always get regular updates and pictures about Stella which is wonderful. Stella is always excited to be there. It is like she's going on vacation too. I highly recommend Maile to anyone who is looking for a dog sittier.”

“Absolutely amazing sitter! Jen took great care of my senior dog despite all of her medications and extra needs. Really went the extra mile to make us comfortable leaving her there. Appreciated all of the photos and updates while we out a ton! Will 100% be looking to book with Jen again!”

Ruston pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jennifer is just the kindest sitter ever. She and her doggie Champ are wonderful and kind humans. My little guy got his paw injured before I left on my trip and she did his best to help coordinate his care. She regularly communicated how he was doing to me, and when he needed to go to urgent care she was wonderful about getting him to a trusted family member to continue his care elsewhere. We love Jennifer and Champ and hope to see them again when Cosmo is all healed up!

Highest Reviews for Jennifer. most sitter were very prompt in getting back to me none could accommodate my schedule. Jennifer said yes and was very prompt with all of the follow-up replies. great location and setting. I will recommend her to anyone and will use her services again when needed. Thank you very much.

We feel very lucky to have found Rose and her family. They welcomed Auggie right in, and we could see the mutual affection when we picked him up. Auggie is going to miss all of his friends at the Pawlace, but we will make sure to visit again soon. Thank you for taking great care of our Juicebox, Rose!

Once again Kenai had a wonderful, caring, enjoyable visit with her favorite dog sitter, Andrea. ;:@) I’m so thankful to have a sitter for Kenai whom she loves seeing and being with. Kenai gets sad when she sees me haul out the suitcases and pack for vacation. But when I drive up to Andrea’s to drop her off she gets so excited and is a happy gal to see and stay with her. Andrea follows all Kenai’s care instructions and gives her extra loves plus daily walks and photos. Thank you Andrea from me and Kenai.

We had been struggling to find the right boarder for our anxious dog, and we’re SO glad we found Tobi. We really appreciated that she checked in with updates as he settled in, and before long, he was clearly happy and relaxed! He usually takes a long time to warm up to strangers and isn’t a big snuggler, so it’s a testament to their skill with anxious dogs that I got multiple pics of him snuggling with different people on their big cozy couch. We loved the photo updates, and we had a relaxing trip knowing he was in good hands. We will definitely rebook!

Very please with using Dorian to watch our dog. I have zero complaints. We have a very active pit mix puppy. He had no problem calming him and making him feel at home. Took him for walks often and treated him kindly. Will definitely be the first person I ask next time I need someone.

Absolutely outstanding dog sitter! Reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. Communication was excellent, and our dog was happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned. I especially loved receiving the happy photos of Gunner while we were away. We felt completely at ease knowing everything was handled so well. Highly recommend on every level!

Mandy and Greg were amazing. It was almost like leaving our dogs with their aunt and uncle. They took them for lots of walks and let them play and they snuggle them and we’re so loving. We have two schnauzers, and one of them did not want to go home when we picked him up! I would give them 10 out of five stars.

Jess and Vince are AMAZING! They went above and beyond to make sure Nova was happy and comfortable. We loved getting daily updates and pictures, it made being away so much easier. Their backyard was a dream for fetch and playtime, and they even walked her every day. Nova was spoiled with love and attention and felt right at home. Bonus points for only taking one dog at a time, which was perfect for our puppy. We’ll definitely book with them again!
