“Thanks for giving Ginger lots of love while we went away overnight. She came home very happy and it's good to know she got along well with the other dogs.”
“Stefanie was great with my dog Daisy! I was happy to receive daily updates and Daisy looked like she was having a great time :) she even made a cat friend! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her for a long weekend.”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, I provide more than just pet sitting — I offer dependable, loving companionship tailored to each pet’s needs and one thing I can say I specialize in is accustoming to different routines based on your pet’s schedule and preferences, from long walks to playtime to quiet cuddle sessions! I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, love, and respect. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. I currently work at a daycare full time, however my schedule is flexible and I have weekends off which gives me more than enough play time for your furry friends on the weekdays and weekends! I have a large fenced backyard which gives the dogs a chance to run around and play freely. I also have a partner who is a Firefighter and a huge dog lover and works every 4 days so on the weekdays when I am at work they will still be with someone at home offering lots of love and attention.
“Siqing spoiled Kodi with naps on the couch and cuddles. She shared pictures of him with her pups and he seemed to be part of the family. It was an amazing weekend for him. Siqing is great to work with and very accommodating. I hope we have the opportunity to leave Kodi with her again soon”
“Kristin was excellent with my dog Oscar. This was my first time with her and I was a little nervous because there was a cat in the household and Oscar doesn’t usually get along with other pets. He also has never really interacted with a cat before. Thankfully they got along great and Kristin provided me many updates throughout the boarding. Oscar had a lot of fun-he had plenty of additional toys and people to play with. Kristin was attentive to his needs, would recommend and use again.”
“Morgan was so sweet and helpful! Very easy to work with. She went the extra mile, keeping things on hand, like a ball for visiting dogs. She carried our little dog up and down the stairs”
“Kara was amazing!! Going through a lot and I needed someone to take care of my two cats. She took them last minute and was so caring from the get go! One of my cats is very shy and he felt at home right away! I ended up extending the time because of my current situation. Will use her again!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“We couldn't have been happier with our experience with John and Wendy! It's very hard to leave your dog with anyone but they set our mind at ease. We will definitely be back again!”
“Sergio took such good care of our dog. Def recommended 👌”
“Giselle was wonderful with Rusty! Her house was so nice and cozy for him, and he looked so happy and relaxed with her. I will 100% book with her again :)”
About: I started off as a private pet-sitter but now I'm trying to expand my horizons! I've cared for many sweet pups and kitties and I love training dogs (mostly for fun!). I also have experience of caring for elderly dogs and cats who needed either oral medication, diaper changes, and weekly baths. I have 1 pup, 4 geckos and I've had freshwater fish for 7 years now. I can perform water changes, dose the tank with fertilizer if needed for plants, or just simply feed the fish when needed. I am also open to caring for reptiles within reason! I currently work from home so my schedule is very flexible. I can be readily available whenever your lovable pets need someone to watch over them and make sure they're safe and taken care of. I can give feedings/walks according to your schedule. I also have no issue providing updates throughout the day as requested. I have a large backyard but it is mainly unfenced so I would prefer to keep your pet leashed at all times outdoors. Please let me know about any special attention your dog/cat may need such as if he/she needs specific timed feedings or walks. Also please provide a crate for overnight stays!
“Noemi was wonderful with my dog and accomodating to my last minute booking! She sent me daily doggy mail and updated me on his activities. She has a beautful large fenced in yard for the dogs to run around and play. Very pleasant and my dog seemed happy when i picked him up also so i know he enjoyed himself! Will definitely book with Noemi again!”
“Elizabeth snd her family took very good care of our Shepherd Tiki. She loved playing with their dogs also. I would recommend Elizabeth for taking care of your pets. Thank you!!!”
“Our dog, Taz, had a great time staying with Howard and Kathleen. We've dropped him off on a few occasions for doggy daycare and he has stayed with them for a few days while we were out of town. You can tell by the way he walks up the stairs to their place, tail wagging, that he likes hanging out there. Howard and Kathleen were also very flexible with our travel schedule which was a bit up in the air and meant we had to reschedule some of Taz's vists. We would definitely recommend.”
“Laura, Carolina & Enrique were great! I needed a sitter last minute and reached out to them. Luckily they were available. They responded fast, took good care of my pups and they had such a great time they were super tired after I picked them up. Will definitely book again. Thank you!!”
“I highly recommend Gaileen! I had never left my senior dog with anyone other than family before and Gaileen was great at making my dog comfortable and sending me updates! She has been professional, reliable, and caring. My dog is looking forward to more overnights with her! 😊”
About: I stand out with my genuine love for animals, tailored care for each pet, reliability, and extensive experience ensuring their happiness, health, and their safety. Im currently not working any other job, therefore I have plenty of time to play, walk and care for your pups as much as needed! I have a huge yard, plenty of space for us to play. A nice home for them to relax. I can take your pups out anytime needed!
“Nicole took amazing care of Mickey, kept me in the loop every couple of hours with pictures on how he’s doing. Would highly recommend her to care for your little fur babies!”
“Shelly is amazing! Not only did she accept our last minute booking, she went out of her way to meet us prior to our trip. She is very kind and sweet. Bagel took an immediate liking to her and she kept us updated with amazing pictures. I will absolutely be booking her again! Thank you Shelly.”
“Otter always looks forward to going to Stephanie's home! He romps and plays with the other dogs, and she takes fabulous care of him while I'm away. He gets to go on nature walks, relax in her bed, and play and be a dog! She sends frequent updates, and I'm always comforted by how happy Otter looks! I highly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking through Rover to take care of their pup!!!!”
