“Linsey was amazing with Dax! He loved playing and hanging out with her pup too!! We were grateful she was able to take Dax on such short notice as our other Rover person had an emergency! We loved the communication and photos that were sent!”

“Crystal did amazing taking care of our two dogs over the holidays for an extended stay. This was our first time leaving our dogs for multiple days and Crystal sent us lots of photos and it put my mind at ease. You can tell she definitely is experienced! She handled everything really well. Our dogs are rescues and can be timid, in all the photos she sent they looked super comfortable and right at home. I recommend Crystal to anyone looking for someone they can trust to take care of their pups!”

“Kelly was able to accommodate me with about 25 hr notice. She has an amazing set up for any dog. Pool, big backyard. She works from home a lot so my pup wasn’t alone. Her dog was so sweet they got along great. She kept me updated with pics and messages”

“As all true dog lovers know, a dog is not just a pet, it is a member of the family. As such, I am very cautious about where and who I leave my dog with. As we had never had to leave our Violet with anyone, my wife and I were very worried when we had to leave our girl for almost 2 weeks. We did not feel comfortable boarding her at a kennel as we didn’t think she would respond well to that environment. So, we went to Rover to see if we could find someone we thought would be a good fit for our Violet. After reading multiple write ups on various Rover sitters, we found Erika who we thought looked like a good fit and was close to our home. At our meet and greet with Erika, my wife and I had perfect peace as we met with Erika and saw the home where Violet would be staying. Erika had a warm and inviting home, a fenced in backyard, and the perfect playmate, ( her dog Huxley) for our girl Violet. My wife and I decided immediately that this home and sitter would be the perfect fit for Violet. We were not disappointed! Erika loved our Violet as much as she loved her own dog and showered her with love and affection. She sent us daily pictures and videos of Violet and her dog playing, napping, and just having a wonderful time. She was having so much fun. We jokingly, worried that Violet wouldn’t want to come home with us after spending time with Erika. Ha Ha. In summary, any dog would be lucky to spend time with Erika. She is an amazing person and we were so happy we found her. This app only let me put in a rating of 5 stars, but if I could have, I would have put in 10 or more stars in rating her performance. We would definitely use Erika again in the future, if and when we needed to board our Violet. My only worry is that after reading my review of Erika, everyone will want to board with her and I won’t be able to have my Violet stay with her when I next need her. Ha ha.”

“Sarah was awesome! She was available on a pretty short notice and sent me photos and updates throughout the weekend. Sarah and her family are all dog lovers and very friendly. I highly recommend her and if I'm ever in need of a dog sitter again, she's first on my list! Thanks again Sarah!”

“I made a last-minute booking with Katie and I am so grateful she was able to watch My Dog. She had a bunch of other very friendly dogs there and My Dog really enjoyed his stay!”

“Joan and Tim are lovely. Harley had a great time and it was nice knowing she was with people who were going to take good care of her. Communication was fantastic with pictures throughout her stay. Thank you Joan and Tim!”

Susan C.

“Our usual dog sitter canceled and I was able to secure Michele that same day.. She met us with a warm welcome and a smile that reflected her love for animals. She also was adaptable to our needs and willing to adjust the times. We would definitely ask for her again. As an added bonus, a fenced in yard!”

J D.

“Mindy took such great care of our Troops! This was our first long trip away in a very long time and we wish we could have brought him with us but are so happy that he had Mindy to take care of him! She updated all the time on what he was doing and we were all so excited to see all the pictures and videos! She is top-notch,highly recommended, I wouldn’t want to trust anyone else! 🐾🐾🐾”

Sandra B.

“Denae & Mark provided a second home for my dog, who emerged from their care happier and healthier than when he started. They stayed in regular contact to ease my mind, and I highly trust their capabilities in caring for canines.”

Dan F.

“Jenn and Brian took amazing care of my dog Jasper. They gave me updates on his walks and sent adorable pictures! Jasper was having a great time! :)”

Michelle C.

“This was my first time ever boarding Winnie and Monica put me so at ease with leaving him in her care. She even spent extra time to make sure my dog was comfortable with hers before I booked an overnight and she kept me informed on how he was doing with texts, photos and video. I would not hesitate to book a stay with her again!”

Doreen C.

“Jin was great. Zeke can be nervous when in a new situation and Jin handled him flawlessly. The updates each day were amazing and I am so thankful that Zeke had such a kind and considerate sitter. Thank you so much!!!”

“Charlette is very kind and caring, she will take care of your fur baby as if it was her own. She communicates quickly and often, leaving you no doubt about the situation. I'm not sure how I could give her a higher recommendation, but if I could, I would!”

About: I have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember and have been pet-sitting since age 10 for family, friends, and neighbors. I have almost always lived with at least one cat or dog (or both!) throughout my life. I also have experience caring for rabbits, ferrets, gerbils, fish, parakeets, bearded dragons, and cockatiels. I currently live with two indoor tortoiseshell cats who are comfortable with dogs, and one of my cats is leash-trained. I have raised and trained at least 11 dogs from puppies to adulthood (3 as my own and the others for my parents). Most of my cats I adopted as teenagers, but I have raised a few kittens from a young age. I have done extensive dog training with the 3 dogs I raised as my own in the past, and I am familiar with both dog and cat training techniques. I live in a cabin the woods in Boston, NY, on a power line gravel road. Although I do not have a fenced in back yard, your dog will enjoy going on leashed walks down the power line road multiple times per day! I earn a living through a mix of substitute teaching (summer starts June 25th!), remote research and writing gigs, tutoring, child care, and pet care. I have a flexible schedule and incorporate pet care into the mix as much as possible because I love animals. If I am boarding a dog at my home, I will not be house sitting at that time (and vice versa). While boarding or house sitting, I will consider dog walking and drop-ins depending on the needs of the client and driving distance. If you board your dog at my home, my cats and I wake up early (about 6am) and I like to go outside for a walk down the power line road right away, and then eat breakfast. Your dog will be able to spend time with me all day (on a leash when we are outside), and if I need to leave my house, they will be in their crate for no more than 4 hours (2 is my strong preference). We will go for at least one more walk before dinner, too. I will be sure to give them plenty of play time and exercise throughout the day (depending on their level of activity and how hot it is outside). No matter what, they will get a lot of love and attention! I live in a cabin in the woods in the Town of Boston, NY, so although I do not have a fenced-in yard, there is very little traffic or people around. I will be able to go on long leashed walks with your dog down the power line for exercise, and there are a few friendly neighbor dogs that would love to say hello if your dog is up for that. I do live with two cats: one of them will hide a lot while your dog is here, but the other is very dog-friendly and will want to interact with your dog. I will monitor and separate them as needed (I have a spare room). I have always crate-trained my dogs and so long as your dog is comfortable in their crate, I will use it as a safe place for them to be while they are staying with me.

“Bev watched my chihuahua for the first time. She came home happy and playful. I could tell she had a wonderful time. Also Bev’s comment was she sure loves her tummy rubbed which I knew meant if all she wanted was Bev to rub her belly she really liked her and trusted her. I will definitely be using Bev again soon.”

“Absolutely fantastic with my 14 year old pup. She communicated promptly and well. Very pleased with how my pup was cared for and returned home!”

“Our dog, Millie, seemed like she had a great time with Megan and her kids! Megan was friendly and very communicative the whole time. We received lots of picture, video, and text updates. We would definitely use her again!”
