“Jing was a terrific host! Our 1.5 year old mini bernadoodle was in great hands with Jing, Jeremy and their dog Jojo. We were so grateful for making our first Rover experience a positive one.”

“Jess is amazing. She is so patient and kind with our overly energetic husky puppy. She is flexible and able to work with you on your schedule. Highly recommend. Will use her services again!”
“They provided excellent care, and sent plenty of photos/updates of my special needs dog while I was away on an extended trip. They were also very accommodating when I needed to extend my trip due to a delay. I cannot recommend them enough.”

“Dana is the best sitter around! He went above and beyond when we forgot to bring a leash and bowl insisting he could take care of it and that he would buy a leash! He is so kind and understanding. Best of all, once again Bella absolutely loved her stay with Dana”

“Julie is the best!! I was in a tough spot with a flight delay and she was so kind and accommodating helping to drop off my dog and checked in to make sure we got back okay to take care of Willow that that night. I’m sure Willow would have loved if the flight was delayed even more so she could spend more time with Julie because her life seemed full of adventures and love all week. Huge thanks to Julie would definitely love to have her watch willow again!”

“Nancy was incredible!!! I felt so safe with her having my girl and she spoiled her. She kept me up to date and took amazing care of all of Petunias needs. I couldn’t be more grateful and will definitely use her again.”

“Tyler and his gf are really responsible and nice. Meimei and Jackson had a really good time. I think they miss Tyler and his gf already. We will definitely chose Tyler again!!”


“Carolina is awesome. Kaci loves to visit and enjoys spending time with the other dogs. They keep me updated with photos and take him on good walks. I love that she offers pick up and drop and is always on time. As a busy person it is good to have a sitter you trust.”

“Tianyue was great. she was very flexible at dropping off and picking up time. she gave me a daily summary of sansa’s activities. she also sent me a lot of pictures and video. i highly recommend her. i would use her service again.”

“I had to go in to the office on short notice and didn’t want to leave Mayu home alone since I didn’t make time to walk her and give her attention. I had a great meet and greet with Atticia previously, and fortunately she was available to take care of her and was understanding of my situation. I just knew Mayu would be in good care when I dropped her off. And every time I had a chance to check my phone Atticia updated me on Mayu- when she had dinner, went they went for a walk, and I even got a chance to see her interact with cutie Aurora. Thank you, Atticia!!”

“Grigorii took exceptional care of my baby girl Remi. Remi is now very comfortable with the out doors. Thanks a bunch for that! He was very accommodating with my short notice. He truly demonstrates the prefect dog friend and furry bestie. I will definitely use him again…not short notice this time. Thank you so very much! Best, Natali”

“This was our second time with Ashley, and my dog Charlee was so excited to see her when I dropped her off! She takes great care of her and we will definitely use her in the future.”

“This was my first time using Rover and it was an amazing experience because of Aly. She communicated with us right from the start and set up a meet and greet where she asked questions about our puppy's routine, needs, and preferences. We were nervous immediately felt very comfortable leaving our brand new puppy with her. Aly sent daily updates and pictures throughout our vacation and we could tell our dog was comfortable and happy. Aly felt like an extension of the family right away and we I couldn't recommend her more. We will definitely look to have her watch our dog in the future.”

About: Before you book with me, you should know why I’m a sitter on Rover! I’m a lifelong dog lover and former dog mom to a very energetic Goldendoodle who was the center of my world. My life revolved around long walks, games of fetch, park adventures, and plenty of snuggles, so I understand how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog like family. I work from home 2–3 days a week, so your pup will have lots of company and won’t be left alone for long stretches. While I don’t have a yard, I believe dogs deserve more than just a quick walk around the block. Every stay includes at least one trip to a local park each day for fetch, exploring, or simply getting their energy out. I welcome small to medium-sized dogs that are friendly with young children, as I have a toddler at home. Whether your dog is full of energy or happiest curled up on the couch, they’ll get plenty of love, attention, and cuddles while they’re here. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone, and I’ll treat them as if they were my own. 🐾 I will facilitate at least a 1 hour walk during the day, plus two other potty breaks. We will get lots of play during the day if I work from home and if not, at the end of the day. I am happy to prepare food puzzles or play tug or hang out on the couch. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I only care for small to medium sized dogs that are friendly with young children, as I have a toddler at home. I don’t have a fenced yard, but all outdoor time is supervised and on leash (off leash can be done in safe places), with plenty of walks and park visits. I’ll follow your dog’s routine, feeding schedule, medications, and any special instructions to help them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. I only accept one dog at a time so each one gets the attention they deserve.
“Eileen was great all around! My dog is very small and she took precautions to make sure he was safe and comfortable around her other dogs. She sent tons of updates and always responded quickly.”


“Whitney looked after our dog for 4 days and gave great care. She has two dogs, one of which i met out when we did a meet and greet. They are smaller but very chill, my dog matches the other dog's energy so small dogs sometimes isn't his best match but they seem to have gotten along well. It seems our dog just made himself at home, so that's a good sign. Whitney also is a great communicator, and was really nice and understanding of our pickup time shifting. We hope to keep them in our circle of trusted caregivers for our dog in the future.”

“Thank you for taking care of Doodle -she’s not the easiest dog to handle but thank you for being so incredibly responsible, always on time, and cares for her well-being. I highly recommend Steven to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter!”

“Ling & Ye took great care of our pup, Truffles for a weeklong boarding. Communication was great and we kept receiving updates. Truffles had a great time staying with the family and made some new friends.”


“Brooklyn watched our Sydney for a quick overnight. She was very kind and responsive. Very accommodating of our pup's schedule and needs. We felt very at ease knowing she was in good hands”

“I would be giving them more than 5 stars if I could! Zwany was so warm and inviting to us dog parents who had to leave their little one behind for the first time. From our meet & greet to the daily pup-dates and everything in between, they made us feel so comfortable and at ease with the level of care and attention our fur baby would get.”

Jason took excellent care of Nate while we were gone to NY. Nate is sensitive to fireworks and can get anxious with new people. He also gets up a bit early in morning. He took care of all his needs and also developed a close bond with him. I really appreciate all his efforts in boarding him and making him comfortable like his second home.

IG was absolutely amazing with my Juju, her attention to detail was next to none. I felt carried along at every turn and for the anxiety I had because my bub was injured. So I say if you need a sitter with great attention to detail and who love animals, IG it your person. Thank you for caring for my bubs IG. I will book again and I highly recommend

Brooklynn is an excellent sitter! My dog (Monty) can be anxious, especially in a new home. He took to her immediately and seemed perfectly content and comfortable at her home. Brooklynn and her partner treated Monty like part of their family right away, and he got SO much attention and belly rubs (his favorite). She is trustworthy, kind, and communicative, and we would highly recommend her to anyone!

Azizah is truly one of a kind! She’s been Chico’s babysitter for the past four years, and I honestly couldn’t imagine trusting anyone more. Chico absolutely adores her, and it’s clear she loves and cares for him as if he were her own. The peace of mind I have whenever I leave the state is priceless. Knowing Chico is safe, happy, and receiving the same love, attention, and care that I give him makes all the difference. That’s something you simply can’t put a price on. I feel incredibly lucky and grateful to have found Azizah. She’s reliable, compassionate, and genuinely exceptional. Thank you, Azizah, for everything you do and for loving Chico so well. We appreciate you more than words can say. See you soon!!

Fionna was extremely communicative and caring. Our dog chuy had a hot spot when we dropped him off and she made sure to look after it and keep us updated on the progress. She gave Chu plenty of walks and welcomed him into her home as one of her own. Her dog Oyster is very cute and got along with Chuy! Would definitely recommend.
