“Orbit had a great time! So much so that he’s currently passed out in the hallway and couldn’t even make it to his comfy spot in the living room 😂 Although he has stayed at larger industrial style doggy daycares, we were looking for a more personalized homey place for him. This was Orbit’s first day stay with Nina and Bryan and they have been so wonderful through the whole process! It really felt like they took him right on in as though he was one of theirs. Nina has been patient and very nice with my overthinking self, and their setup is great for the dogs to have plenty of space to play and/or lounge.”


“I can't believe I forgot to review all this time! Sam was great when Bruno came to play for the day—a huge backyard with plenty of friends to play with. I haven't been back because my schedule has changed, and Bruno has a friend's dog to hang out with when I am at work. If he needs a day of fun & play, I would absolutely get a hold of Sam :)”

“Andre was great. He was very flexible and happy to work with my schedule and my 2 older dogs and their quirky needs . Penny is blind and he happily made any necessary accommodations for walks and going potty. Bonus lived his best vacation days ever, with multiple walks a day. Thank you”

“Had a last minute trip and Melanie was able to accommodate us. She was very informative, sent pictures and let us know how she was doing. I would love to use Melanie again when we are in town.”

About: I have a sweet 90lb golden retriever, and a rambunctious and playful rescue mutt! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I have gone through puppy training courses with both of my dogs and am comfortable walking large dogs who pull. I can help with training for pulling and walking manners if needed! Whether you need someone to come over and take your pups for a walk and some play time, or you want them to come over and play with my pups, I am happy to help in anyway I can! I work as a nurse only 2 days a week so I am fully available 5 days a week for anything your pets might need! I have a fenced yard and two very friendly pups who love to play. They love having friends over for play dates! My dogs are both crate trained, and sleep in their crates at night. We go for 2 walks a day and usually go to the park nearby for fetch a few times a week! We love to be active and do training throughout the day!
“Kylie is very responsive and communicates well, which I appreciate. My dog enjoys his days playing with their 2 dogs and others they care for. I’ll definitely continue using their services.”

“We have our pup come stay with Genevieve every week! She has 2 super sweet dogs and our puppy has the time of her life playing with them (& a nice large backyard to do so)! We get tons of great photos and videos every stay. Genevieve has great communication and is consistent and reliable. Our minds are at ease knowing Poppy is safe in the best hands. ❤️❤️❤️”

“Every pet parent’s wish is that their fur child gets the same love and care at a sitter’s as they do at home. Ann provides exactly that. She is responsible (arranges meet and greets of all dogs she cares for) and adheres to all provided care instructions as well as send picture/video updates throughout the day. I love that dogs are allowed to roam free in her house as it provides a more “home-like” environment compared to other typical boarding facilities. She is great to communicate with regarding scheduling and understanding when emergencies come up. Ann has been my dog Ollie’s go to daycare and boarding service for the past two years. But honestly, she’s gone above and beyond to be more than that. Ollie enjoys spending time at her house and even gets invited to her dog’s birthday party every year. We honestly can’t recommend her enough!”

“Jason took great care of my Theodore! Took him on walks, let him get lots of snuggles and love! He came home and was as completely tuckered out after his stay! Thank you Jason for making him a part of your pack!”

“Colin was sooo good with my dog, Fluffy- who can be particular with new people. He is patient, detail oriented, thoughtful, and provided great updates throughout the day. His home is clean and safe for dogs. I’ll continue to use him as a sitter for Fluffy for as long as he’ll have him!”

“Absolutely love Amalia, Mary, and family. Ocean is always so happy to see them and it makes my heart so happy to know he’s being loved and taken care of, AND that he’s enjoying his time there. It’s really sweet to see him a little sad to leave their house. I know he loves all of them.”

About: Hi, I’m Michelle. I’m a longtime dog owner with over 16 years of experience, and I recently returned to Rover after taking a few years’ hiatus to care for our senior pup full-time. We recently said goodbye to our sweet girl, Mika, who was with us for 16.5 wonderful years. Caring for her taught us so much about patience, comfort, and the extra love senior dogs need. While we’re not quite ready to adopt again, we would truly love to share that love with your pup. My husband and I have a calm, dog-free home, which allows us to give your dog our full attention in a peaceful, low-stress environment. We have a special place in our hearts for senior dogs and those who may need gentler care, but we love pups of all ages. Your dog’s days will include two walks (adjusted for age and energy level), playtime or cozy downtime, treats with your approval, and lots of affection and belly rubs. I also provide photo updates and check-ins so you can feel confident your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. A Few Things I’d Love to Know To provide the best care possible, please let me know: • Any special needs or medical considerations • If your dog experiences separation anxiety • Feeding schedule, diet, medications, or allergies • Their daily routine and energy level • Favorite comforts, routines, or quirks Important Note Extended stay: An additional $25 day rate applies if pick-up is over the 24-hour period. Your pup will get plenty of attention. We can go for walks and have some play time. Ofcourse (if your pet is older we will go for shorter walks) They’ll get treats and belly rubs. We have a patio with grass they can go potty anytime :) I have a cozy and fenced patio. They can sit and lay out by the sun. I also have a grassy area for potty breaks anytime the want.
“My precious PugZ took an immediate liking to Rachelle. She sent plenty of pictures and updates. I’d definitely have Rachelle care for PugZ again and highly recommend her services”

About: Hi! My name is Kiara and I am a fully remote worker with no pets and a quiet, clean space to spend time with your baby - focusing on one dog at a time to ensure quality attention and care can be provided. I am an experienced dog owner who lost my baby, Shiloh 🐾🪽🤍, after 13 years. Since Shiloh’s passing, I haven’t felt ready to commit to owning another dog full-time. However, I have been big sister/cousin to other dogs over many years and have loved on various breeds, sizes, and personalities. I am particularly experienced in providing calm, laidback environments for furry family and friends, ensuring both pup and I feel at ease with our time together. My work grants me the ability to love on and closely monitor the dog(s) I choose to spend time with in the comfort of my home. I have the flexibility to not only give lots of TLC, but also take them for walks or play in my backyard. I have a healthy work/life balance that avails the opportunity to make time to brighten a pup’s day, giving you some free time and me some added canine joy. While your pup will have open space in my home to explore, I have a safety gate to block off stairs as needed, and an enclosed indoor play area with bowls, toys, and enough room for you to bring their crate / bed. My fully fenced in backyard makes backyard trips convenient and safe, and my neighborhood offers many sidewalks and parks to safely walk my more active friends. Additionally, there is an enclosed dog park right across the street!
“Mrs. Shyrah is awesome! I brought my 2 dogs - Athena (Rottweiler) and Ava (Chihuahua/Dachshund) - to her care, and despite them both being very shy of new people, I was told they did wonderfully, they were so calm and friendly to her at her home. She let both of them feel welcome and let them acclimate to the environment at their own pace. She often sent me pictures and updated me on how they were, which was so great to see. I will 100% be booking Mrs. Shyrah again in the nearby future for all daycare and overnight stays! She’s awesome and my dogs love her! 💕”

Sam is absolutely amazing! He truly understands dogs and introduces all the dogs in his care in a safe way so that they can all play all day in harmony. I’m so glad that we found him and that when we go away we have a trustworthy place for our girl to stay most importantly, thrive! She’s never come back to us anxious as she always did at larger boarding facilities. Thank you so so much Sam!

Beth did a great job helping Esther feel comfortable and welcome! Beth was responsive and loving towards our senior girl and made sure she has happy and settled in her care. They went on a walk together and Beth was able to get Esther out for regular potty breaks. Thank you Beth for taking great care of our Esther! 💕😊

Nathalia and Michael were wonderful sitters. Nathalia was very communicative and ensured she had all of the necessary information to take the best care of Cleo. Cleo became attached to Michael and will miss him very much. She lext their house a very happy and tired puppy! They took excellent care of my baby and I will definitely ask them to watch Cleo again.

Our anxious beagle had a great day with Sophie & Hugh! Their adorable dog Monte got along well with our girl, Luna, and she soon became very comfortable. Sophie & Hugh sent photos and updates during the day of how Luna was doing. We’ll definitely use them again to watch our fur baby!

I had a feeling Melanie would be great for some doggie daycare action with our little boy & she was! All-around amazing with him, and us. Very easy to work with & knows the drill with little dogs. We’d def use her again and recommend her for any sitting needs! Thank you again Melanie 💚
