“Yakelin is a miracle worker! She was not only available last minute, but was expertly qualified to handle our 2 husky puppies! The most impressive part is that they came back even more well behaved than when we dropped them off! I wish I could leave 100 stars!!!”


“Polina is a nice intelligent person. I highly recommend her. I left my puppy for 9 nights and Polina kept in touch all the time about how my puppy is and what my puppy is doing. She really takes good care of my puppy, by walking him every 3 hours and feeding him as I asked her to. When I came to pick the puppy up, I found that the puppy was very happy, vitally joyful, and very active.”


“Kristen took such wonderful care of our pup. He was able to play with Tommy and go on lots of walks and trips to the park. I am so grateful to have found Kristen to watch Atlas. She was communicative and understanding when we had to extend an extra day. I’m sure Atlas will be visiting again soon!”


“Christine and Matt were great! My dog seemed to fit in perfectly with their two pups and they gave me daily updates! I would definitely recommend.... Look forward to using them again.”


“I had a wonderful experience with Yan taking care of Roro! She treated Roro with so much love and care, taking her out for daily walks and sending me updates with pictures and videos. Roro looked so comfortable and joyful in her home. I will definitely rebook in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”


“Maypud was absolutely phenomenal. I have a 1year old puppy and she made him feel so comfortable and safe. I would bring my baby boy to here all the time now!! 100% recommend!”


“Absolutely love Marisol! She’s sweet, caring, nurturing, and holds a safe space for our puppy. Zero complaints about her service and will continue to book her as much as we can.”


About: Hello, I am a college student who is going into an environmental field, I love the wildlife and any animal, ive taken care of pets my whole life from neighbors to relatives to family friends, I am a dog person but any pet is welcomed and I always try to keep them as close to home as possible I currently have a job Monday- Friday, from 8-4 but I am always open on weekends and if its not a problem with the owners willing to take care in between my Job I always try to keep the pet care as closely similar as the animals daily schedule. I try to keep the animal stress free and relaxed, I used to spend time trying to understand these amazing animals and giving them what they need

“Our dog Moose was really happy and had a great stay for 3 days. Kristin was in touch the whole time and made everything smooth and easy for pick-up and drop-off. Excellent experience. Highly Recommended!”


“Being our first board with our puppy we were very apprehensive. We got numerous photos from Jocelyn a day. Many including her family. Really put us at ease. Definitely would bring her back.”


“Eden takes such good care of my baby girl. I am 100% confident that she is treated with love and nurture with Eden and Gal and Cruizy. She even knows her little quirks and her doggy terms. Luna and I thank you!!!”


“What a great experience! Matt and Christie are very good about sending pictures every day so I felt so comfortable having my pup there. She was so worn out when I picked her up that she went right to sleep for many hours. I highly recommend them.”


“Joan and Duncan were great. They have a lovely home on a quiet street, were very responsive and thoughtful. Oakey enjoyed his time there and I felt comfortable with them taking care of him.”


“Ashley is a fantastic sitter! She was very accommodating with scheduling and routines. She sent us many videos and photos of our dogs and they looked like they were having a blast staying with her. Her dogs are also very playful and it was clear our dogs got along really well. 10/10, highly recommend!”


“This was our first time using the Rover app. Irina made it so easy and we instantly felt comfortable with her. Our puppy is only 5 months old and still a baby and Irina was great with her! She stayed in touch throughout our trip and sent pictures and put our mind at ease. I would definitely recommend using Irina. We are already booked again!”


“Our dog, Moxie, loved her overnight stay with Donna! She sent lots of pics and video throughout the day so we could see how well she was doing. From the fenced in yard, options for space to hang out solo or with other dogs and the care shown at check in, it’s clear the dogs in her care are loved and so well cared for. We are so happy we found Donna and will definitely be reaching out when we need a sitter again.”
