“Maolin was the best and took such good care of Avery! She sent daily updates of their adventures on walks and to the dog park. With her we knew our pup was safe and happy over a long trip out of town!”

“Lily was so happy when she came home. You could tell she had a good time. Emily took great care of her during a tornado warning. I'm very thankful for her. The pictures she sent were great!”

“Lauren and family are so great to my beloved Rocco. I was able to be away and did not worry about his care. I knew he was in good hands which was such a peace of mind! I will be rebooking and encourage anyone who wants to be away from their pet with no worries to do so as well!”

“Alex was the first host I used on Rover. I was a bit worried about using this app, but Alex made my first experience amazing! She is so friendly and truly has a heart for animals. I have already booked with her a few times since and my doggo loves to stay with her. She is very flexible and has even dropped my dog back off to me. I can’t recommend her enough! Thank you Alex for taking such good care of Amani!”

“Wonder with our needy and at times difficult dogs. This was our first big trip leaving our 2 dogs with someone other then close friends and we were very pleased with how they were cared for.”

“Amber was very enthusiastic and accommodating even before we dropped off our little girl. This was our first experience with Rover and she and her family made it a great one! She showed us around her home, where our pup would be playing outside, and made us feel right at ease! She sent lots of pics and video throughout the weekend so we knew Shasta was having a great time! Would definitely recommend her as a sitter. We’ll use her in the future for sure!!”


“Dawn was incredible. From the warm welcome upon my last minute business trip in which Atticus couldn’t join. Dawn provided fresh chicken and daily walks and her updates were detailed and lovely. Such a wonderful experience. Will be back. Thank you!”
“Mary was wonderful! She sent at least one update a day, usually more, and my high energy doodle had such a great time with her and her husband and their own dogs. He got lots and lots of exercise with regular walks and zoomies in their giant backyard. We’d love to use Mary again!”


“Tamisha took great care of our two dogs while we were out of town. She provided lots of updates and pictures and gave us total peace of mind when it came to our dogs well being. She has such a warm personality and my normally timid dogs felt immediately at home and comfortable with her! So grateful for her and will definitely be taking our dogs back to her in the future!”


“Ksenia was wonderful with my dog Scarlet! I was so grateful she was as able to help me out when searching for a dog sitter last minute! Ksenia was a great communicator and sent many updates and photos throughout the weekend. I would highly recommend her & we will certainly be using her again!”

“Amazing host and sitter , super nice backyard for dogs to play , super communicative and understanding, i would have these guys watch my pets any day !!”

About: I've been a dog person for as long as I can remember, with over 13 years of hands-on experience covering walks, cuddles, vet visits, and everything in between. I recently lost my beloved pup to cancer, so I know firsthand what it means to love a dog deeply and care for them through every stage of life. I'm experienced with senior dogs and administering medication, and welcome large breeds . My partner Max is also home to help, so your pup is always in good hands. I only host one household at a time and am committed to giving your dog my full attention. Right now we have a pet-free home and will give your pup gets all of our attention. Your dog will be treated like a member of the family from the moment they arrive. Fri-Mon there is someone home at all times, so potty breaks can be kept to whatever schedule your dog requires. We don't often host midweek, but if we do, Tue-Thu we are able to limit alone time to approximately 4-5 hrs. I have a securely fenced yard for outdoor play and potty breaks, and will be present with you dog as long as they are outside (no leaving them alone despite the fence). Dogs are allowed on the furniture and in the bed. I'll stick to whatever routine works best for your pet, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special needs. I'm experienced with senior dogs and large breeds, and I'm happy to share regular updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing.
“Our sweet boy, Franns, loves Sally so much! We cannot say her name unless it means we are headed to the car to take him to see her. It is obvious that Sally cares for Franns the same, as well. When we leave Franns in Sally's care, I have never once had to worry about his well-being, and that is a comfort I will never take for granted. We love Sally, for loving our big boy so well.”

“Felt so comfortable with our puppy being with Justen. He communicated with us every day and made sure King felt at home. Justen is a very nice person I highly recommend him if you need someone to take care of your fur baby.”


“Tiffany took excellent care of my Frenchie, Walter 💕 I did not have to worry at all and she gave great updates! I would absolutely use her again and recommend her help!”

“Olivia was very responsive and professional. We were looking for a late booking for a spontaneous getaway and she was amazing! She took wonderful care of our headstrong Chessie named Guapo. She kept us updated with photos and their activities. We would trust her anytime we need a sitter again! Thank you Olivia!”

“10/10 recommend Kathy to anyone looking for a trustworthy fur baby sitter. Lucy highly enjoyed her time at her house and we enjoyed the daily updates and pictures. I will be bringing her back whenever we have the need for an overnight stay!”

“Thomas was absolutely amazing with our Corgi pup! He is personable, professional, and took great care to learn our dog's personality and needs before meeting. He is wonderful at sending updates and communicating any concerns or questions promptly. Livi loved her vacation with Thomas and can hardly wait to go back.”

I honestly can't say enough wonderful things about Khalyn. My dogs are my babies, and I'm extremely selective about who I trust to care for them. After having Khalyn watch them, I can honestly say I don't want anyone else. She is incredibly attentive, caring, and treats my boys as if they were her own. I especially appreciate the regular updates, photos, and messages while I'm away. Knowing how they're doing throughout the day gives me so much peace of mind and allows me to relax instead of worrying. It's obvious that she genuinely loves animals, and my boys were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. If you're looking for someone who is dependable, compassionate, and goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly recommend Khalyn. I trust her completely, and she will always be my first choice whenever I need a sitter.
Dawn took wonderful care of my older dog, Penny. She made sure Penny received all of her medications and kept me updated throughout her stay with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. Penny was happy, well cared for, and clearly enjoyed her time with Dawn. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!

Katie was so wonderful!! Communication was great and our pup was comfortable with her from the very first meeting! She sent pictures and sent updates during the stay! I was so at ease knowing Stifler was in great hands while we were out of town! 10/10 would recommend and would definitely book with Katie again :)

The previous person I used for a while is no longer boarding dogs so I had to find someone new which is always an anxious thing to have to do. Luckily for me and my dog we stumbled upon Nicole. Nicole was absolutely amazing!!! Her two doodles Mily and Kira were fast friends with my dog during his stay. They have a big fenced in back yard to run around in and Nicole sends lots of photos and videos which is always a nice gesture that lets you know your dog is having a great time and things are going well. We will definitely be coming back to Nicole for any future boarding needs!

We had an excellent experience with Sydney! She took wonderful care of our pet and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We received regular photo updates along with timely messages, which made it easy to see that our pet was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Communication was outstanding, and it was clear Sydney genuinely cared about our pet’s well-being. We truly appreciate her professionalism, reliability, and kindness. I would highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring person!

Brittney is an absolute lifesaver! She watched our dog Max for over a week. He happened to get sick completely out of the blue on day one (nothing to do with her care, just bad timing). She got him to the urgent care without hesitation, kept us updated, and was incredibly flexible with his meds and schedule. Through it all, she made sure Max felt loved with plenty of walks and playtime to keep his spirits high. We came home to a happy, healthy pup. If you want someone truly dependable, book Brittney—we can't thank her enough!
