“Lisa treated my dog, Diego, like one of her own! He spent the weekend at Lisa’s house and was spoiled! We knew Diego was being well cared for by Lisa and her sweet family, and that put our minds at ease. We will definitely be booking with Lisa in the future!”
“I will definitely be booking again, Marcy seemed right at home! It was my first time using rover and she made me feel really comfortable with leaving my dog. Couldn’t recommend anyone better to leave your pet with!”
“Can’t recommend Ashley enough! This was our first time using Rover while my wife sat for the bar exam, so it was a stressful time, but we never worried about our two dogs who stayed with Ashley. It gave us so much peace of mind! Our dogs had a tough time adjusting to being in a new space and Ashley was incredibly understanding, flexible, and compassionate. She also sent a bunch of pictures, which was great! Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Stephanie was great! She is so friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. She communicated often with great pictures of our fur baby! I would absolutely recommend trusting her with your pup.”
“Evelin and Joel were great hosts, and took good care of Niki while we were out of town. Their place was well suited for three dogs, and Niki was fine after the initial meet-and-greet. Evelin and Joel kept us up to date with pictures and comments while we were gone. Thanks! Al & Billie”
“Wonderful couple, great communication throughout the whole process. My dog fell in love with them from the first time he saw them and didn’t want to leave when it was time to go. Definitely recommend 100%🫶🏽”
“Schuyler was flexible and helped navigate a change of plans. She and her husband came over twice a day and spent time with our pups, played with them, and gave them much needed attention while I was away.”
“One of the most kindest and sweetest pet sitters you’ll ever find! She is also a very kind and sweet person. she always communicates with daily pictures or videos about my pet. She also is very attentive to my pet. Any concerns she brings up immediately to me in great detail. I always feel very relieved and safe knowing my dog is in her care. Highly recommend her. plus every time I pick up my dog he is so happy and whenever I do drop him off, he’s excited to be there. Always a great sign of a terrific sitter!”
“Jeanette took such great care of Scout and Jingles. She make them feel right at home. I loved the pictures and videos of the dogs running around and playing with Scout. It made me so happy to see that they were happy and enjoying themselves while I was away. I would definitely recommend Jeanette!”
“I’m so glad I found Andrea for our dog! Andrea definitely understands dogs and I knew right away she would appreciate Gus and his specialness. He seemed to have a wonderful time and enjoyed the yard a lot. I will absolutely book here again!”
“Ernesto is amazing. I came across Ernesto on Rover after my previously booked sitter canceled less than 48 hours from my family vacation. I thought for sure I would have to cancel my trip but Ernesto saved the day. He was more than happy to take care of my husky and pitbull on a holiday at the last minute. It’s easy to see that he has a passion for animals and that he has tons of experience caring for and training dogs. He kept me updated throughout my trip and even gave me some dog training tips. I definitely recommend and plan to use him in the future.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and loved them my whole life. My Golden Retriever, Maya, and I are eager to make some new puppy friends! I have experience taking care of a wide variety of dogs from small breeds such as Dachshunds and Papillons to larger breeds such as Golden Retrievers, Great Danes, German Shepherds, and many more. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, dogs that need medication, as well as ones with injuries. I am excited to help take care of your fur babies! I am currently working a remote job, so I will have lots of time to give your pets the attention they deserve! I am available throughout the day to attend to any special instructions you may have. I give pets in my home lots of love and playtime with frequent outings and follow any special instructions of caretaking provided by the owner. I currently have my Golden Retriever, Maya, in the house with me, and I am looking forward to spoiling your pets with attention, too!
“Masie lived her best life while staying with Alex and his family, especially being able to stretch her legs in their fenced in backyard and the hike they took her on!! She and I both rate her stay a 10/10 ~ Definitely recommend! 🐾💜”
About: Just moving back from Washington state and looking for some new furry friends. First time using Rover. Use code TAYLOM99939 and get $20 off!! I’ve taken care friends and neighbors dogs and cats for over 15 years. My pup is very friendly but I’d like to do a public meet first for overnight boarding so they can get used to eachother. I only do rover so other then a couple hours some days I will be home with the pups and only crated when I leave and if needed at night time. That part is up to you whatever they are used to. I have been watching peoples animals for many years and would love to add yours to that list. If going out of town I will do weekends! My husband will occasionally be with me. I treat the animals as if they are my own. I can even run with them if they need some more exercise then just a walk.

Bailey M.
“I have a household with 7 dogs right now, and Bailey has stayed at my home and taken care of them all. She has also watched my young golden retriever overnight at her home. You can tell that Bailey absolutely loves being around dogs and spending time with them! She even taught my two-year-old golden retriever how to jump through a hoop and go through a tunnel in a short obstacle course that I had set up in my yard. Bailey is an exceptional caregiver. When I had to travel, she cared for my senior dog who was recovering from a pelvic fracture. She gave him his scheduled medication, kept his recovery pen very clean, and walked him using a sling as he became more mobile. If you are looking for someone who is reliable, conscientious and will go above and beyond devoting her love and attention to your fur baby, I highly recommend booking with Bailey.”

We can always tell when we get home that Bella has been loved and that she's had lots of time spent with her. I would not hesitate to contact Taylor with any pet sitting needs. You will love her just as much as we do! :)”
Ryan S.
“Absolutely wonderful, our fur-baby was well taken care of, loved all the pictures, highly-highly recommend Ryan! I will be reaching out again in the future most definitely.”
