“My girl Josie had a fantastic time with Nicole; she was well-cared for, well-loved and I received daily updates and pics of all the fun she was having. I highly recommend Nicole and will certainly use her again!”
“It is so difficult for me to relax when someone else is taking care of my dog, but I felt so great about leaving Jasper here. Jeff is so kind and patient - I could see from the photos that my pup was feeling calm and loved. PIckup/drop off was a breeze, there is a lovely and large backyard and I just felt so happy knowing that there was always someone there with the dogs, treating them with gentleness and prioritizing their safety. I'm recommending this to my friends already.”
“Annette was a wonderful host to Freddy who stayed with her for a full 4 weeks. He felt right at home adding Annette, her pets and family to his pack. He will miss them for sure until our next trip.We will have him stay over again. Thanks for having Freddy:)”
“My pup stayed at Kimberly’s home for a night. She took great care of him! She was very easy to communicate with and responsive. Kimberly is a true animal lover! I highly recommend her and will definitely reach out to her in the future!”
“This was my first time boarding a 3month old puppy, and Loretta and her partner were so fantastic! They took such sweet care of her, she was never alone and loved her time with Paprika and Akira! It was such sweet peace of mind knowing my girl was safe and happy. Thanks Loretta 💕🐾🦴”
“Janice is an absolute sweetheart who loves any and all animals. She took our dog Brody into her home for 10 days and he was so comfortable and relaxed when we came to pick him up. He was obviously very loved and nurtured while we were away with lots of photos and updates. Going forward, Janice is our go to for looking after Brody. She is just fantastic. Recommended.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with Cipriana. She's knowledgeable, caring and responsible. It was nice that she contacted me to let me know how the dogs were getting along with her dogs and sent pictures as well. I will definitely use her services again.”
“From the moment we did the meet and greet I knew that I would feel comfortable having Teresa watch my little love Alfie. Teresa has her own rescue dog pack and they included Alfie immediately and he was so happy. Teresa kept me updated throughout his stay and sent daily pictures. I felt totally at ease and was able to relax and enjoy my vacation. I’m already planning to book with her again for my upcoming trips.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. Mildred and her family treated my dog as one of their own for the few days that he was there and when I picked him up, I felt like I was part of the family as well. I got photos regularly and I knew that everything went perfect. I will 100% book again. I can tell that my dog made new friends so even if I don't need to board him overnight again, I know that I can drop him off to hang out with his new friends. I prefer this option over boarding/daycare at a facility where your pets may not get the same level of attention and care. 10/10 Recommend!”
“I cannot overstate how amazing Cherissa and her family were. They loved and took care of my dog like he was their own. I got pictures and updates every day and she was so flexible which helped us out so much. I was nervous to leave my dog with anyone because we’ve had bad experiences with boarding facilities but he was so happy the entire time he was with her and came back happy and exhausted from 4 days of playing. I would absolutely bring him back to her if I ever needed a sitter again. She is the best!!!”
“Franny took wonderful care of my 14 year old Charlie overnight. She’s a very kind person and Charlie felt completely comfortable with her. He also got along well with her dog. I will definitely be using her again.”
“Mary Ann boarded/took into her home my Daizy, a 12-year-old toy poodle, while I had surgery. The best recommendation comes from Daizy who kept looking for Mary Ann after Daizy came home! My little was pampered, cared for and spoiled and I couldn’t have been more pleased. Highly recommend!”
“My dog slept for almost 2 days straight after I picked him up from Christine because he had an absolute blast with her! She treated him like one of her own (and he treated her home like it was his, haha). I received daily updates and pictures and for the first time in 4 years, didn’t worry whether he was ok while boarding. Christine will now be our go-to person whenever I travel without my pup. Very grateful to have found her!”
“Maggie was so professional, attentive and affectionate in watching my dogs! Every day brought new photos and progress reports. They came home in even better health than when I dropped them off!”
About: I've had the privilege of caring for a variety of animals over the years. From mice, rabbits, dogs, cats, horses, chickens, ducks - I love to pamper them all! I've learned to understand each animals' individual needs and am hyperfocused in their comfort. Being a committed pet parent, I've experienced and indulged in all the milestones - so I'm ready for the puppy edition all the way through caring for your senior family member. Being very detailed oriented and personally spoiling my own critters, I can support even the most high maintenance of fur babies! My fiancé (also on Rover!) ensure your furbaby is entertained around the clock! I work from home and handle the early bird shift, including your pup in the sunrise (bright snd early) farm chores. My fiancé provides the daytime activities including long walks and hikes on our farm, supervised yard time, play time. Evening activities include additional walks and games. Pups will have their last walk and tucked in for the night around 1030PM. I am extremely conscious of pet safety and following instructions provided by owners. When pets are at my home, they will not have any interaction with other animals- just me and my fiancé (who is also on Rover!). Dogs will always be on a leash, with the exception of being enclosed in a secure fenced in area. We have a 1 acre fenced in yard where dogs can have supervised zoomie time. Dogs will never be left unattended in the yard. Our fur guests spending the day or night will have their own room with a bed, crate (if preferred for their comfort or if they are beavers), ad lib water, etc.
“Definitely recommend! My dog had a fantastic time, and it was clear how much Ben enjoyed taking care of him. He was very communicative and sent lots of pic of our dog having fun. Will definitely book again!”
“Samantha and Michael were the perfect boarders. Extremely responsive, proactively communicated with us and seemed to have the perfect home for our Lab (who has anxiety). He was extremely happy with them!!”
“It's great to know that your dog is well cared for while you are away. There is no doubt that Cindy is an animal lover. I was so happy with the care that Chooch got, I knew that he was in good hands. Cindy is very thorough and patient and did everything to make my dog feel right at home. I would definitely recommend leaving your dog with Cindy!”
“My dog had such a great stay with Samantha- highly recommend! She was very attentive & accommodating to us and him with treats lots of walks and play. Sunny and my dog had lots of fun together too!”

Kimiko & Benjamin C.
“I'd highly recommend Kimiko for any pet sitting needs you may have. Her calm, competent attitude is just as reassuring to my pets as it is to myself. She can also handle a wide variety of situations. I have three dogs with very intense personalities, and two cats who don't always love the dogs, and she easily navigates their relationships. My oldest dog is reactive and dog selective and I've never had any concerns when he's in Kimiko's hands. She also has plenty of experience with providing medication and handling dogs going through rehab. I seriously can't say enough good things about KImiko. You won't regret having her take care of your pets.”

Smithfield dog parents share their Rover experiences
Our little dog has had quite a few sitters over the years, but Nikeyu is his favorite of all. She was so gentle and sweet to him from their first meeting, and he warmed up to her immediately. She has two very good-natured dogs and a lovely secluded and peaceful property that was great for Mickey. He was very well cared-for there and Nikeyu communicated really well with us. Mickey had such a good time with Nikeyu that he didn't want to get in the car to go home, something that has never happened before!
