Archer had a fantastic day with Brittany! She kept me updated on how he was doing, took him to the dog park, sent pics, was very responsive. Would definitely use again.

Dawn is a great dog sitter. She took lots of photos, and her dog Rice was a wonderful host too! She took care of Ruby and Toasty for the day in her home as a "trial run" to make sure all 3 dogs were compatible so we will definitely be using her in the future for extended stays. Highly recommend.

George is great! We use him frequently for daycare, and Bentley always comes home happy and tired at the end of the day. George takes Bentley running and swimming during the day, you name it. He also works with your dog on different commands to help their stay go smoothly. Highly recommend!!

They took really good care of Lola, my Aussie doodle. I’m so grateful for their care and attention, specially because it was a very short notice. Lola came back home happy and tired. She also got along with their dog. They were very responsive with the texts and sent me updates and pictures about my dog. I definitely recommend and would love to book with them again. Great sitters. Thank you.

We’re so grateful we found Isabel to care for our Luna! Our dog, who’s usually slow to warm up, felt right at home immediately. The updates and photos gave us so much peace of mind—it’s clear she truly loves and cares for every dog like her own. We’re looking forward to Luna’s first overnight stay and an already booked longer visit with Isabel. Highly recommend!

My dog Reese is so happy to spend the day with Arden! By our second and third visits, Reese had learned what it means when I say “you’re going to see your friend Arden today,” and she happy whines in the car when we get close to her house! Very grateful to have her as a backup parent for when I need a break.

Karisa is amazing! We sent our little fur baby with her for 3 days of doggie day care and he had a blast! He spent all day playing, snuggling and would come back ready to go to bed after a long day of play! Karisa is very knowledgeable and incredibly responsive! She sent us pictures and videos during Everest’s stay and we were happy we felt at ease knowing he was in her care! Will def book again and I recommend her to anyone who wants a great sitter for their fur baby!!

About: I previously provided pet care on Rover and took some time away. I’m now back and excited to welcome new clients! I’m committed to reliable, attentive care and keeping you updated every step of the way. I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally—it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m often the “aunt” to my friends’ dogs, and I treat every pup with that same level of affection, patience, and attention. My priority is making every dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home. I take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs—whether they’re an energetic puppy or a more relaxed senior. While I don’t offer formal training, I’m patient and consistent with reinforcing positive behavior and providing gentle, attentive care. My goal is always to create a calm, loving environment you can feel confident leaving your dog in. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, evening visits. I work a 9-5, but I'm available before and after work, as well as full availability on my days off. I'm committed to making time to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I create a safe, calm, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely to keep things consistent and stress-free, including feeding, walks, and rest time. Safety and trust are my top priorities—I monitor pets closely, ensure secure surroundings, and treat every pet like family.

About: Now booking for June and Beyond! Hi! I’m Garrett — I provide a safe, clean, and fun home for your dog while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule, so your dog will get plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I love staying active with walks and playtime, but I also make sure your dog feels comfortable and relaxed like they’re at home. I’m happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your dog is doing 😊 I can host multiple friendly dogs at a time, so your pup can enjoy some social time if they’re comfortable around others. I also offer baths before pickup if you’d like your dog going home clean! Feel free to reach out with any questions — I’d love to take care of your dog! I have a flexible schedule and can usually accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. I’m happy to provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I always try to keep a consistent routine so your pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and comfortable in their environment, and I will always keep you updated with messages and photos so you know your pet is happy and safe while you’re away.

About: I grew up with labs and retrievers but now live alone with my 2 cats (who are pretty much used to dogs, but still wary of them). I watch peoples dogs and foster with Saving Grace when I can so have experience with a wide range of dogs. I am an engineer but am taking time off from that job. One favorite thing to do with a dog I watch is taking them to my building’s fenced in private dog walk and playing fetch! I have a large dog crate if that is better for sitting/boarding but only if that is part of their normal routine. Pets are allowed on the furniture (also if normal) and since I have pets already, I have extra water around the apartment. Since I’m used to hosting dogs, I’m good at “cat proofing” the apartment and my unit has a good layout to separate the cats and the visiting pet if needed. I choose how to take out any dog based on their personality: dog walk at my apartment building, walks, local dog park, hikes, etc. I also have plenty of dog toys.

Emily took care of my dog tater like she was her own. I work long shifts at the hospital and would feel so secure knowing Emily had my baby! Every time I got to my phone throughout the day there were such adorable pictures waiting for me. Tater is still a puppy and can be a good amount to handle but Emily did such an amazing job with her. I could not have asked for a better sitter! Highly recommend Emily for anyone looking to leave their fur baby with a responsible and loving person!

Fraggle made himself right at home during his meet & greet six weeks before and again upon arrival at his first day of daycare! It speaks volumes to see your dog instantly comfortable in a new space, with new people. Isabel and Drew demonstrate a genuine love of dogs and an interest in understanding their needs and normal schedule. Fraggle has an upcoming longer stay already booked, and I know he’ll be in good hands!

This was our first visit with Jordy, our black lab, and he really enjoyed the stay. Dawn was great at communicating with us before and during Jordy's all day stay. She sent us pictures of him playing with Rice, napping and just hanging out. We will certainly choose Dawn again.

Your doggie will be in wonderful hands. It’s clear that Mara loves animals and it shows in how she’s taken care of our pup. Mara is communicative, punctual, thoughtful, and updates us with great photos/videos throughout the day. And for Winnie - she lives her best life with Mara! She always comes home tired after a big day of walks, play time, and parks. We are so lucky we found Mara.
