“I’m so happy we found a new dogsitter through Rover. Deb is a perfect fit for our 4 year old Cavapoo. Deb has a very warm, friendly demeanor, and has vast experience with dogs, both as an owner and a service dog trainer. Her golden doodle was a nice companion for our dog over his stay. I highly recommend using Deb as a trusted dogsitter.”


“Amanda was amazing with my dog! Her dog is so loving and sweet too. I highly recommend and would absolutely use her again! Her communication was amazing and she sent me pictures of my boy when he was in her care and put my mind at ease. She was a delight!”


“So happy with Sarah. She was quick to respond. She sent me pictures of our dog, Rico and our kitty, Penny. They were very happy and content being with her and her mom. We felt peace of mind as well. She has a nice yard and sunroom. Plenty of space for our beagle to run and play. Very happy.”



“Jenna took great care of our dog during his stay! She sent regular updates and photos, and had dogs of her own for our pup to play with! She’s super experienced with dogs, and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog in her care! Highly recommend!”


“Christine was truly amazing! My 13 yo dog was having an arthritis flare up and she took care of him like her own! I was truly so comfortable having the dogs staying with her. I would 1000% recommend using her!”


“I just want to eternally thank Cassandra for taking care of my boy as if he were me in such a short time. She made me feel very safe and comfortable on my vacation without having to think so much, but thanks to her I was very comfortable during these days away from my baby. Thank you so much and I recommend her with my eyes closed. She is very good at what she does 👏”


“Rebecca and her husband took great care of our boy over a weekend. He played with their dog and they allowed him to sleep and lounge wherever he was comfortable. We received pictures showing he was doing well while we were gone. They seem to genuinely care for animals and our dog came home happy. I would definitely trust them to watch him in the future.”

“It was my first time being away from my pup. Roberta is amazing. I was sent daily pictures and updates. When I went to pick him up he was happy and exhausted. Thank you Roberta!”


About: I have had animals since I was a little girl. From mice, guinea pigs, rabbits, dogs and cats- I’ve taken care of them all! Last year I took in my mom’s dog since she moved and couldn’t take her along, so technically this is my first time owning a dog (on my own), but there has always been either a dog or a cat in my home growing up, so I have dealt with it all- accidents, anxiousness, and everything in between. I have also been able to teach my dog some new basic tricks, despite her being 13! I am very patient, determined, and caring. I currently work full time, 2nd shift 3p-11:30pm, so I am available M-F up until 2pm when I need to start getting ready for work. I wake up early and take my dog out right away, then again in about 3ish hours, and then right before I leave for work to ensure that I don’t come home to an accident, and then she potties and eats dinner when I get home. On the weekends, I’m home probably 90% of the time, so we go to the museum, dog park, and for the most part, she runs all of my errands with me! Despite me living in an apartment, I do still have a yard in the front and the back of the building, so if my dog (or yours) isn’t feeling up for a walk (or the weather isn’t great) there is still grass for them to go to the bathroom. I do not mind about my dog being on my furniture- it’s her house too! That is how it would be for your pet too! I also have a small balcony, where me and her sit and hang out for some fresh air.

“Lisa was incredible! This was my first time leaving my dogs with a “stranger”, and I couldn’t have had a better experience! Lisa updated me with pictures often, and even sent my babies home with a photo album of pictures!! My girls loved her, and we will be using her in the future!! ❤️”


“Tania was amazing and my pet Daisy liked her very much . She sent daily updates and took my girl on long walks which she loves . When picking her up I saw her tail going nuts and that showed how much my pet liked her. She in fact offered her a toy that Daisy picked up when she was in her care . Thank you very much for the affection you showed towards my girl.”


“Steven provided excellent care for Cooper. He communicated well, sending regular updates and photos that showed Cooper enjoying walks and playtime. Cooper was happy, tired, and well-cared for upon pick-up. Steven is highly recommended for pet care.”


“I couldn’t be happier with the care she provided for my dog! She was attentive, gentle, and clearly has a natural way with animals. My dog warmed up to her right away, and I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. She followed all instructions, kept me updated, and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable. Highly recommended, I’d trust her again in a heartbeat!”


“I think my dogs really enjoyed their stay with Evan because they did not want to come home when I arrived to pick them up! Evan was very communicative and sent me plenty of photos of the dogs throughout their stay. Also, Evan's house appeared very clean and tidy which was a plus.”


“Ashley was wonderful from initial contact straight through to pick-up. Professional, communicative, and best of all, the perfect temporary dog mamma for my girl. Highly recommend 🙌🏼”


About: Hi, I’m Danita! I’ve been a dog owner and caretaker for most of my life, and I truly enjoy the companionship and joy that animals bring. I currently work from home full-time, which allows me to give your dog plenty of love, attention, and potty breaks throughout the day—perfect for pups who need consistent care, especially puppies! I have experience walking multiple dogs, administering medication, and supporting crate training. My home includes a spacious, fenced-in yard where your pup can safely play and explore. I have two friendly dogs of my own—a maltipoo and a golden doodle—and I know how important it is to find someone you trust. I accept all breeds as long as they’re friendly with others, and I’m always happy to adjust to any special needs your pet may have. I welcome all breeds as long as they’re friendly with other dogs. If your pup has any special needs or care instructions, please let me know so I can make sure they’re comfortable and well-cared for during their stay. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! 🐾 Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine since I work from home full-time. I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, whether it’s regular potty breaks, playtime, feeding, or cuddle sessions. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to each pet’s needs, from energetic morning walks to quiet midday check-ins. I love having animals around, it brings joy and purpose to my day! On weekends, I’m usually home as well, so I can easily accommodate longer stays or extra visits. In my home, pets are treated like family! I provide a safe, cozy environment with plenty of love, attention, and supervision throughout the day. I have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and follow each pet’s specific routine—whether it’s feeding, medication, or crate time. I keep the atmosphere calm and welcoming, especially for puppies or senior pets who need extra care. When I’m in my client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely to make sure pets feel comfortable in their own environment. I take care of everything from feeding and walks to litter box cleaning and playtime. I always send updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
