About: Although we are people who have had pets throughout our lives, we became official Rover sitters beginning in January 2025, and we love what we do. We love dogs. To us, home is where the dog is. Equally important, home is where we are. Most of the time, both of us are home with our doodle, Poppy, and when that isn’t happening one of us is here with her. Your dog won’t be left alone. We have loved, lived with, and raised everything from a 4 lb Chihuahua to a 60 lb Standard Poodle. Now we live with a 24 lb mini Doodle named Poppy. We give Poppy love, training, play, and routine. And treats! We play fetch with her daily, either in our huge yard where she has lots of running room, or in the pool. She loves pool fetch! She is family, and your fur kid will be treated the same way, like a member of our family. We generally board one or two dogs at one time. Three is rare but can happen if they are from one family or dogs we know are compatible. We love keeping dogs for daycare, and carefully consider each situation with pet safety as the priority. Aggressive dogs are not a good fit for us. We don’t accept pit bull terriers. We are retired. Your dog will not be left alone.* This works well with dogs with separation anxiety, but almost all dogs want a human companion close by. They are in a new place looking for reassurance. Your dog’s health and safety, and your peace of mind, are our top priority. Please let us know if you have any special requests, such as medication administration, or special pick up times. We have a flexible schedule to meet most needs and send daily photos and updates. *We did have a schedule issue once in this past year and left Poppy and a daycare guest alone for about half an hour. I did talk with the owner beforehand. WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US: A knowledgeable and sensitive assessment of your dog’s needs followed by fast and appropriate responses. Before retirement, Water was an RN for 39 years, and her assessment skills and level of awareness are both excellent. John can tell you how impressed he was when she saved their Chihuahua with a modified Heimlich. He said he didn’t notice the Chi was choking until after Water removed the obstruction! We will notice and care for your dog’s needs. That’s how we care for Poppy and that’s how we will care for your fur baby.. WHAT WE WOULD LIKE FROM YOU: Please provide food and treats (if you want us to give treats) for your dog to prevent stomach issues and allergies. Also, please include any medications. We do charge extra for medication administration. Please provide documentation of up to date vaccinations. ENVIRONMENT: We have an enormous fenced yard, and our guests are allowed to use the doggie door with outdoor supervision. They can nap on the shady patio, sniff along the fence line, or play with toys. Fetch and tug have been big hits, but there are visitors who seem to prefer exploring. The yard is safe and secure. John recently fenced off the ornamental cactus area of the yard to prevent possible injury. We provide structured outdoor playtime everyday, and furred guests are welcome in the pool with your permission, weather permitting, and canine desire. When we aren’t supervising the pool, the pool gate is locked. Fresh water is always available, both outside on the patio and in the house in the kitchen. Our home is air conditioned. Visitors are allowed on the furniture, unless you direct otherwise. We consider it a gift when a furry friend joins us for a cuddle on the couch. We have discovered that a rock yard can be too rough on paws for long playtimes. Some of our guests prefer their outside time to be spent on the covered patio!

“Maggie did a great job with my kitties. Besides feeding them and keeping their litter box clean, she also played with the kitties and spent time with them. They are hoping she will come back again! Thank you Maggie!”

Susan T.

“Alayne was amazing! Clear communication and updates about scheduling, very attentive when learning the routine, super patient and earned the trust of my shy dog, and lots of pics! Highly recommend!”

Payton S.

“We had such an amazing experience having Caitlin watch our two dogs while we were away! She was incredibly detail-oriented, attentive, and thoughtful throughout our entire trip. She followed all of our instructions perfectly and went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We especially appreciated how frequently she sent updates, photos, and little check-ins. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing exactly how our pups were doing while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about them and treated them like her own. Coming home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs made it obvious how wonderful of a sitter she was. We would absolutely trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, communicative, and genuinely invested in their pets. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter!”

Jericho H.

“Rachel was so communicative. She left good notes on what she did at each visit including 3 to 4 photos. She took very good care of our Lucy and seemed to really enjoy her visits! Thank you Rachel!”

Cheryl F.

“On time, kept me updated with plenty of photos. Very professional and was very happy with her service! First time user of River and will be a continuous user based on my experience.”

Chance P.

“Fantastic job! Thanks for the photos and videos.”

Alex S.

“Nia did a great job taking care of our dog, Lulu. Nia was very good at communicating everything she observed and all the things she did while spending time with Lulu. She really paid attention to Lulu’s behavior and mood and her notes really let us know Lulu was in good hands.”

John A.

“Kendall is amazing! She is so full of energy and easy to get in touch with. It is so clear to see how much care she takes in every aspect of her life. Bonnie was very happy when I came home, I could tell she was well cared for :)”

Jil A.

“Cassidy helped us when we were in a pinch! I was able to book with her last minute and she loved on our sweet pup! So very thankful for her. She communicated with me throughout her visits as well which provided the reassurance that our girl was comfortable and taken care of.”

Vanessa L.

“Alyssa did a great job checking on my dog. She included plenty of photos and updates during each visit. I had to modify the trip a couple times and Alyssa was very easy to work with.”

Kevin R.

“Sydney was wonderful with my 3 dogs, including a 11 week old puppy that needed extra attention. We were only gone for a few hours but it was reassuring to know that someone was there to tend to his needs. When we came back, all the dogs were calm and happy. It was our first time using Sydney for our pet sitter and we will definitely use her again. She is trustworthy and knowledgeable with dogs.”

Christine W.

“Thus was a meet and greet and Demarquez quickly had our 3 boys on leashes, walking them around becoming friends and getting comfortable with them.”

Tanya C.

“Steven is super communicative and professional. He connected with Ziti right away, and he wrote very cute notes about her with adorable photos. Thank you so much!”

Dana L.

“Steve did wonderfully with our two cats! So much so even the more reserved one of the pair made some appearances. I felt that all of our instructions were followed perfectly and it put our minds at ease during our trip with limited access to internet.”

About: Hello! My name is Lily! I hope I’ll be your new favorite pet sitter! I have experience with many different kinds of animals, though usually sit for dogs and cats. My family has owned dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, aquatic and terrestrial turtles, aquatic frogs, and fish. I am always happy to meet new kinds of creatures, though— as long as you can show me how to care for them, I’m excited to meet them! I’ve watched animals of all different ages and abilities, including elderly ones. I have previously handled emergency situations for absent pet parents. I am happy to administer medications, provided that you demonstrate or describe how the animal usually takes them. Happy to provide walks for dogs, cats, etc during housesitting stays! If your animal is very large and/or pulls extensively on the leash, please discuss with me what would be best for them at the meet and greet. I love hanging out with animals while I’m working— they’re such good office-mates! Of course I have to leave occasionally during overnight stays, but your pets are my priority, always! Whatever attention they need, I will give them, and I will always keep my eyes and ears open for any mischief happening! I like to go through your routine with you and then try to keep everything as close to normal for your pets as possible! They’ll already be missing you— they don’t need any more stress! Food and water bowls refilled on time, walks given regularly, and as many pets, kisses, and photoshoots as required!

“Another successful weekend of thanks to Colby taking care of my fur babies! I am so grateful to have found such an attentive sitter for my pups. Another zero anxiety trip because I know how much they love her!”

Emily H.

“Tiffany was so helpful and thoughtful in watching my cats. She followed the directions I left to a T, gave me detailed information on how they were doing, and went out of her way to make them comfortable while I was out of town. I will absolutely be booking Tiffany’s services again.”
