“Amber was amazing! She was incredibly responsive and was able to take my dog last minute, which I really appreciated. She kept me updated with photos throughout, and it was clear my dog was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend and would happily book with her again!”

“Thank you so much for taking care of the boys while we were in Albuquerque for the day. I wish you were closer so we had a reliable sitter in Denver. The pictures helped us through out the day know that the boys were safe and having fun too! Look us up if you're ever in Colorado. Ve”


“Rebecca was fantastic! I'm so lucky to have found her last minute! She obviously cares about the fur (or furless 😉) babies she cares for in a sincere way and has a beautiful energy. She did a fantastic job working with my puppers hairless needs and making me feels comfortable and confident in leaving him. He had never been around other dogs before this point and I feel she accommodated him well when it was to much for him. I'm grateful she was even willing to consider those needs, work with me to meet them, and feel like he was genuinely seen and not just there. She communicated very well and I looked foward to receiving pics during my day. There was unfortunately one big down side, she's not in my town! I do hope if she ever is, she gets into contact with me so I can show her what my colleagues and I were working on and get to know her better 😉!”

About: I've grown up with dogs (mostly big ones) all my life. I've worked with big, small, and medium dogs and understand behavior stems not from breed but from how the fur babies have been treated. Currently in between jobs so Bear and I have lots of time for walks in the park and dog park fun. We love meeting other pups. I have a safe fenced yard with a dobie who get along with all sized pups. I make sure to keep the yard and house clean to ensure a friendly welcoming environment. We can also crate doggos if owners would like
“Peter did a great job with our dog despite the challenges that a young dog brings. He was extremely professional and took care of our dog like his own. We received updates and photos throughout the day which was great as well. He has a real passion for dogs and is a caring & trustworthy person. Thanks again!”

About: I have had dogs since I was 5 years old and have watched pets for friends and family since I was a teen. Currently have two doggos. One 2 years old and one 9 years old. I have taken care of puppies, having house trained multiple dogs and have cared for senior dogs I work from home with a very flexible schedule on weekdays. So I have plenty of time for walks and playing with the pups. I am available to walk dogs multiple times a day. If your pup is staying with me they will gets walk and be able to go out for many bathroom breaks throughout the day. Since I work from home you dogs will never been left alone at any point. I have a fully fenced yard and two very well behaved dogs that love getting to play with other dogs. I can crate your dog if needed but since I work from home I am always able to keep an eye on them. I can take your dog on multiple walks, play with them in the yard, and make sure they go out for plenty of bathroom trips.
About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. As the founder of a nonprofit rescue, I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies to introverted senior cats, and I truly believe every animal deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood. I specialize in shy, quirky, or high-needs pets—those who might take a little extra patience (and maybe a snack bribe or two) to warm up. The photos you see here? They’re a mix of foster pets, my personal pets, and beloved dog-sitting clients. If your pet has ever been described as “a little dramatic,” “selectively friendly,” or “too smart for their own good,” we’ll get along just fine. My approach is gentle, flexible, and grounded in experience—and lots of treats. I tailor my care to each pet’s needs and personality, whether they’re a wild child or a cuddle bug. My goal is for your furry family member to feel right at home—even when they’re not. Someone is home most of the day, so your pets will have plenty of companionship. We’re only ever away for a max of four hours at a time—perfect for pets who need extra snuggles or supervision. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a fully fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love making new pals. I can easily crate your pup if needed or keep them separated if they prefer their own space. My home is pet-proofed, cozy, and always full of love (and treats).
“I met Elaine and her doggies about a year ago. My dogs finally stayed at her house for four nights last month, and then for one day last week. My dogs had already met her dogs a year ago, and when they met up again, they were like old pals. No growling or hassling. It was perfect! I got daily updates and pictures from Elaine. It was so comforting! And my dogs did great at her house and with her dogs, and it was just the best! I booked a full-day stay last week, and they were literally going INSANE when we were driving into her neighborhood. That tells me a lot about their experience there! They love going to Elaine's house! Our next booking is during the Christmas-New Year's Eve time frame, and my dogs are already so excited, and Elaine has let me know that so is she, and she's gearing her doggies up for a week-long visit :-) My neighbors/friends that used to keep them all the time are moving back to NJ, so this is exactly what I needed at this time in my life. I feel completely comfortable leaving my dogs at Elaine's, whether it's for a day or a week! This is the best thing EVER!!!!”

“Tracy was incredibly kind and caring with our fur baby, she was very responsive and sent lots of pictures during her stay. Also super flexible! Our pup loved Tracy!”

“Melinda was wonderful, she took amazing care of Willie. I received pictures and updates on how he is doing. She is warm and responsible and takes good care of those fur-babies! highly recommend and will come back.”

“My dog absolutely loved it at Cindy's house!! It's my first time using rover so I was a little nervous but Cindy went above and beyond! You can tell she really loves dogs and knows what she's doing. I definitely recommend!”

“5+ stars! Spencer was an excellent sitter for our dog Luna! He was incredibly flexible, had great communication and took very good care of Luna. We left her with him 3 different days while visiting Maine and we could tell that she had a great time and enjoyed her stay with Spencer and Buster! She was always happy and very tired when we picked her up so I know that she was well taken care of, stayed active and was very loved! We highly recommend Spencer as a Rover sitter and will 100 percent use him again if we ever return to Brunswick! :) Thank you Spencer and Buster! Buster was a cutie and Luna got along with him very well btw! :)”

“Michael was very helpful and accommodating. I believe he did his best with Rocco to keep him occupied. Rocco has separation anxiety, but Michael made the efforts to gain his trust in a limited timeframe. We were very appreciative with his services!”

“This was my first opportunity to use Rover and I had a great experience and so did my Luna. I could really tell Bonni loved pets and took great care to ensure my Luna had a great experience. Thank you so much!”

About: Hello! I am very experienced in any and all dog needs. I work from home, can provide enriching walks, and also have a huge fenced in back yard. I live with one very well trained and friendly dog of my own and am passionate about giving dogs amazing experiences! I work from home, so I can spend as much time with your pup as you'd like! Typically, I leave my house for the gym once a day. I take care of every dog like they are my own. I have one well-trained and friendly pup of my own that yours can play with while they are here! There is a large and safe area for them to run around outside, as well as be cared for inside. No rooms or surfaces are off limits for pets, aside from sleeping in my bed.
“We booked our hyper 1 year old Goldendoodle. Kimberly was a wonderful sitter. We were passing through the area on a cross country move and had plans to visit friends, tour projects and eat lunch. I made a last minute decision to book and Kimberly was accommodating. I knew when k dropped off my dog he was in good hands. Kimberly sent me photos during the stay. My dog was happy at pick up I can tell he had a good stay”

“My first time here on Rover and we had a great experience. Thank you so much! I’m so happy I found Leslie & James. The dogs were in great hands and I felt reassured they will be cared for from the get go.”


“Always amazing! Punnarai is caring and attentive. My pup is excited to be dropped off and (sadly for me) tentative to leave the fun environment she creates for him while he’s there. Definitely recommend.”

San Jose dog parents share their Rover experiences
Lilah had so much fun with Aijah, her husband, and her adorable dogs. She got to play and go for walks while I was at work, and I loved getting pictures of them playing. I felt very safe leaving Lilah at Aijah’s house and when I picked Lilah up she was calm and happy and smelled good :)
