“Leaving our dog with a sitter through Rover for the first time was very nerve wracking but Joshua reassured us from the meet and greet to the very end of our vacation. He sent us updates everyday and communication was top tier. I would book with Joshua again. Highly recommend!”

“This was our first time leaving our dogs with a sitter. Lucille was great! She maintained great contact and was very in tuned to the nuances of each dog. I was thrilled that the dogs got exercise and went on lots of walks! Would definitely use Lucille again!”

“Allie is an awesome sitter. She has watched our dog two times now and we plan to book her again. She watched our dog Skye for a one week and a two week stay. Skye loves being at Allie’s, where she gets multiple walks and plenty of play time. Allie is great about sending updates and pictures. Allie is conscientious and professional, and you can tell she really cares about your dog! I really like that Skye is able to get a lot of attention at Allie’s. Highly recommend her!”

“Thea was wonderful with DJ. He spent about 12 hours with her and came home with a big smile on his face. The big plus for us was a fenced in yard to play in. Would definitely use Thea again.”

“Jing, made this experience a very positive one. I hadn’t left my 2yr old Zuchon previous to this. I felt very reassured for the duration my fur baby was in her home. My pet enjoyed the doggy day camp, and will continue to use Jing whenever possible. Thanks Rover!”

“Daisy watched our dog Bentley for a long weekend. Daisy was great with Bentley, she is very understanding and kind . In the past our dog Bentley got very anxious and nervous when we went away, he was very comfortable with her and happy for the time we where gone. We already booked Daisy for a week long stay in the end of January!”

“Our minidoodle Sam had a great stay with Charlotte and Jordan, and their dog Kyber. Two things we especially like: They generally just take one dog at a time (more attention, and Sam loves attention!), and they live near some great walking trails. Very nice people.”

David G.

“I was very nervous to leave Lola to go on vacation, only because this was my first leaving her. It was great to find out that I actually had nothing to be worried about because Deiana is so sweet, great personality, and was very sweet with lola, took very good care of her, walked her, lola and her pup played together in her backyard, she brushed her out. She also sent me pics while I was away to let me know how lola was doing.”

Lisa J.

“Chester is a senior and still recovering from CCL surgery, so we were concerned about leaving him. Rebeca came highly recommended and we are happy to add our recommendation. Rebeca and her family were patient and accommodating to ensure Chester was comfortable and stayed within his activity limits (so important for recovery). She also sent pictures every day. We have already booked another overnight stay and we highly recommend Rebeca.”

Craig M.

“Michael and his family were great!! Our Golden Jaxson came home super happy!! He sent multiple update pics and was very responsive!! Felt so at ease Knowing Michael was caring for Jaxson! 🐾”

Erin A.

“Alexis is fantastic with dogs! She is experienced and knowledgeable with breeds, temperaments, behaviors and health. Alexis goes above and beyond to make sure that the animals in her care are well taken care of when they are with her. She is also full of advice and helpful hints. My Wesley always come home calmer and better behaved than when I leave him. I am so glad I found Alexis and don't have to worry about Wesley when I am out of town.”

Jennea C.

“Leyani was wonderful! We are so grateful she was able to take care of our dog Sunny - we so appreciated the photos and updates. Couldn’t recommend more!”

Abigail C.

“Adriana and her whole family was very accommodating and patient with our dog who gets separation anxiety. She kept me updated frequently with pictures and texts. I would use Adriana again and would recommend her. Thank you!”

Carol R.

“Taylor is such an amazing dog sitter, I cannot tell you how happy I am to have found her. Even though I was on vacation I felt like Eddie was too! She did all sorts of fun things with him and gave him lots of love and attention too. So many updates and pictures, it made my trip even better to know he was in such caring hands. Can’t wait for Eddie’s next visit!”

Krusty H.

“Becky and Bob are laid back and welcoming! Our pugs were very well cared for and came home happy!! We will definitely book with them again!!!”

“Big thanks for taking such good care of our furry baby (again). Knowing she’s with people that treat her like family lets me relax and enjoy my adventure. Thanks again!!!”

Karen C.

“Rebecca was personable and gave updates during our pup’s stay. Rebecca engaged our pup with socialization and training reinforcement. Our pup seemed to have enjoyed her stay and came back safe and sound.”

Seth C.

“Monica was great with Champ. I would highly recommend her and will be booking with her again. She was great at keeping us informed about Champ. She also sent us pictures that help us while we were away on vacation.”

About: 🐾 Hi, I’m Efrain—your dog’s new best friend! I’ve been caring for and loving dogs for over 30 years, and honestly, dogs have held some of the most meaningful relationships of my life. I often say (only half-joking!) that I love dogs even more than humans sometimes. Their honesty, loyalty, and pure-hearted energy have been a constant source of joy and grounding for me. I currently share my home with two wonderful dogs of my own, and they absolutely love the company of other pups. They’re social, playful, and gentle—perfect hosts who make visiting dogs feel welcome and part of the pack. Spending time with my furry little kindred sorority is the best part of my day, and caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s truly a way of life. 🐶 What Your Dog Can Expect ✔️ A calm, safe, loving environment ✔️ Friendly canine companions (my two pups!) ✔️ Lots of affection, attention, and individualized care ✔️ A caregiver and famiky who treats every dog like family If you’re looking for someone who genuinely understands and adores dogs, I’d love to welcome your pup into our home and extended fur-family Hi, I am a lifelong dog lover, proud husband and dad, and someone who’s spent nearly 30 years helping people as a mental health professional and consultant. At home, though, I’m happiest surrounded by my family and my two amazing dogs, who love welcoming new furry friends into our little pack. I often joke that dogs have been some of my best teachers (and sometimes better company than humans!), and creating a home filled with warmth, laughter, and wagging tails is one of my favorite things. Whether I’m supporting people through my work or caring for pups in my home, my approach is the same: lead with kindness, stay grounded, and make everyone feel like they belong. At home, I care for my dogs with a mix of structure, play, and genuine affection—daily walks, plenty of exercise, consistent routines, and lots of cuddle time. I make sure they’re mentally stimulated, well-fed, and always feeling safe and loved. Whether we’re relaxing at home, exploring parks, visiting dog-friendly spots, or going on little adventures, I keep their comfort and happiness at the center of everything. I treat every dog in my care the same way I treat my own: with patience, attention, and a commitment to making them feel secure, understood, and part of the family.

“Colleen and her family were wonderful!! Colleen is very caring and thoughtful and obviously loves animals. She went the extra mile. The daily reports she sent were very colorful, descriptive, enthusiastic and delightful! We enjoyed the daily photos. Lily was smiling in many of the photos! She obviously had a good time. We feel she was very well cared for and we've already booked the next visit.”
