“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Mayra was absolutely amazing with our two Siberian Huskies during the 7 days we were away. She was incredibly attentive, and the pre-visit walk she arranged helped calm our nerves about leaving the pups. Every day, she sent us pictures—sometimes multiple times a day—so we always knew they were happy and well cared for. She even sent us a fun video of them howling, which was such a sweet touch! It was clear our dogs enjoyed her company, and we came home to two very content pups. We would absolutely have her watch them again in the future!”

“Emily has dog sat/house sat on two different occasions for us now. We have two Pomeranians (10 and 9 years old). She is very respectful, kind and provides us updates often with photos. I would highly recommend Emily. She is very responsive and asked all the right questions during our interview process.”


“Heather did a wonderful job watching our two dogs in my home. The house was left in tip top shape, and Charlie and Ruby seemed to have a great time! They got regular walks and had someone to hangout with while we were away. Heather had great communication and sent lots of pictures.”

“Thank you Katherine! I felt totally confident leaving my babies in her care! She was great at communicating, letting me know how they were doing and sending pictures. Highly recommend and I will definitely be contacting her again next time I have a trip planned.”

“Kayla was a fantastic fur baby sitter! My dogs absolutely adored her, they were well cared for, and I was kept in the loop with their daily activities. I absolutely recommend Kayla, and I will be using her services again in the future. She’s kind, communicative, and respectful of my time and space. I could go on and on, but your pets are in kind safe hands with Kayla!”

“Kenna did a great job with our energetic puppy! She was communicative, kept the house super clean, and was overall a joy to work with. My dog loved playing with her pup! This was our first time leaving our puppy so it was such a relief not having to worry! I love that she stayed overnight- it made things much easier. She walked the dog everyday and I could tell my dog was so happy (and tired) when we got home!”

“Nicole was absolutely amazing! I travel quite a bit and find it hard to find someone to fully trust with my boys and she just went above and beyond. She was extremely communicative and listened to all directions. She left my house super clean and I could not recommend her more. If you want to be at ease when you travel then Nicole is the right person to leave with your fur babies.”

“Rhiannon was terrific! She cared for our dogs and home with great care and wonderful communication. Meant the world to us to receive regular updates with happy dog photos. She was flexible and quick to respond. Great experience!”

“Crystal was an amazing dog sitter! She was very attentive with the dogs & communicated very well with me throughout the stay. Thank you for being great with my fur babies!”

“Tess is great! My two dogs clearly were loved by the look from all the pictures she sent me. The house is as clean as I left it and she communicated the whole time I was gone. I will definitely be booking with her again.”


“Gary was fantastic! He took great care of our boy and our home was just as we left it. He was also flexible with our travel plans. We will definitely book again”

“Sylvie did a phenomenal job caring for our anxious, shy/fearful pup last minute! She was able to accommodate 2 meet and greets which made our pup comfortable ahead of her stay. Sylvie asked thoughtful questions about his behavior and care requirements and listened to all of our nervous parent requests. She has a calming demeanor which really helped with our nervous guy. Sylvie had no problems administering medication, was sure to send updates throughout the stay, and was very communicative about everything. We feel so lucky to have found her!”
“My dog Isla loves when Maciyah comes to stay with her! She takes care to make Isla feel very loved and keeps her very busy. Definitely recommend Maciyah for any of your pet’s needs”

“We couldn’t be happier with the care our three boxers received! It was clear Hannah had a genuine love for dogs and plenty of experience handling larger breeds. Our pups can be a handful, but she managed them with patience, confidence, and lots of affection. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us peace of mind and let us see how much fun they were having. It was obvious our dogs felt safe, happy, and loved the entire time we were away. Coming home to three relaxed and well-cared-for dogs was the best feeling. We highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Gracie was absolutely amazing with our two pups! We were given updates and pictures all throughout the day and never had to worry about a thing when we were out of town. We have used this service a lot and haven’t had anyone that can hold a candle to how great Gracie was! Will definitely be calling her again in the future!”


About: Hi! I specialize in puppy care, separation anxiety, and brachycephalic breeds. Having a Bulldog of my own has taught me firsthand how to handle the unique needs of smushy-faced dogs — from monitoring breathing to keeping them cool and comfortable. For anxious or velcro dogs, I provide a calm, attentive environment with plenty of reassurance. Puppies get the extra patience, structure, and supervision they need to feel right at home. 🐾 I work remotely full-time, which allows me to be home throughout the day. I do have occasional meetings during the week, but they are typically under 1.5 hours and scheduled in advance. Your dog will not be left alone for long stretches of time. I can accommodate morning, mid-day, and evening walks and potty breaks. I’m happy to communicate my schedule ahead of time so you feel fully comfortable. I am fully attentive to the animals. I can provide multiple water/feeding bowls, cooling mats, toys, can give dogs medicine, and lots of love! I guarantee I will respect all boundaries and follow all your directions.
“Charlotte was absolutely wonderful with my dogs, Mabel and Marty. She stayed at my home for 10 days while I was away, and I could immediately tell when I got back that they had been so well cared for. They were calm, happy, and clearly engaged while I was gone — which says everything. Charlotte is incredibly sweet and attentive, and she went above and beyond in every way. She kept my house completely spotless, left the kindest note, and even had calming music and a dog channel playing on the TV when I arrived home so the dogs were comfortable and relaxed. It was such a thoughtful touch after a long trip. I felt totally at ease knowing my dogs and my home were in such great hands. I would 100% trust Charlotte again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone truly caring and responsible.”
“Mark is a great Dog Sitter and Dog Walker! Gabriel is a big Rottweiler and it can be difficult for him to warm up to new people. Mark is a professional and was able to get Gabriel to warm up to him right away! Thanks Mark!”


“Sally was great, she came and stayed the night at my place while I was out of town. She was very sweet and seemed to get along well with my dog. She updated me with texts throughout the stay to keep me informed. I would love to use her again in the future for my dog sitting needs.”

Sherwood Forest pet parents share their Rover experiences
Gary has watched my dog Koda a few times now. He always does a great job- keeping me informed of what is happening and even adjusting his schedule to align with my mine. On one of my trips I was forced stay an extra day outside the US due to airline issues. Gary accommodated this unplanned emergency and made everything go smoothly. Personally, I think Koda believes he is the one on vacation when Gary watches him.
Diane was a fantastic sitter! She was amazing and easy to work with throughout the process. She stayed in my home while I traveled and my deeply anxious rescue dog and my cats never missed me. Diane kept me informed while I was away, followed all my instructions, and my pets were safe and happy in my absence. I look forward to hiring her again. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her or rebook her. She’s truly a thoughtful and special person who will care for your pets so you can relax while you’re away.

Elizabeth is hands down the best dog sitter we have ever used. I was able to go away for a weekend on short notice and know without a doubt my 2 dogs were in the best hands. She sent me lots of updates and plenty of cute pictures while I was away. She asked all the right questions if anything came up. I also came back to a clean house which was a huge plus. She was able to handle our crazy 1.5 year old golden and keep our 6 year old golden very happy. You could genuinely tell they enjoyed their time with her just from the photos. Would definitely use Elizabeth again and can’t thank her enough!! If you are looking for a well qualified dog sitter who truly cares about your pet as if they are her own, look no further.

We had a great experience with Amanda! She took wonderful care of our two Labs and made sure they were comfortable, and given lots of attention while we were away. We really appreciated the updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind. Our dogs were happy and relaxed when we got home, and it was clear they were well cared for. We would definitely trust her with them again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter.

Richard did a wonderful job staying in our house. He left it cleaner than we did, and the dogs were happy and healthy upon our return. He provided lots of photo updates. He was accommodating when we needed to modify our booking. Definitely would hire him again!
