“Couldn't ask for a better place for our dog, Mishka. Dale was professional, kind, and pretty chill. He sent pictures and videos daily. Their lovely home with few dogs/cats was a perfect fit for our dog, who gets nervous easily. Dale was flexible enough to accommodate our late pickup. So thankful we found this family at Rover!”


“This was the second time we used John and his wife Joanna and they were wonderful once again. Our pups can be nervous when they’re away from home but I could tell they recognized their home (and kids) and felt comfortable there, which made it easier to leave them. They communicate and send pictures/updates every day, and when one of our pups wasn’t feeling well they let us know right away and were willing to stay up at night with him to make sure he was okay. They even checked up on him after he was back home. Just lovely!”


“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received over spring break! Eun went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, happy, and well looked after the entire time. It was clear from the moment we picked him up that he had been treated with love and attention—his tail was wagging, and he seemed relaxed and content. We truly appreciated the regular updates and the peace of mind knowing our pet was in such good hands. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”


“Sujan was amazing boarding Aspen for 3 nights. He came back to us relaxed and happy and he definitely had a great time. He was well cared and we received a lot of pictures. We will definitely be using Sujan again! Thank you so much!!”


“Zac is amazing! We did a meet and greet which was so easy to schedule. We then did a ‘trial run’ for an afternoon to make sure they’d be happy to have our dog for more than a few hours. He provided photos and updates too! Our pup came home happy and exhausted from playing with Biggie. Will definitely be using Zac again.”


“Mohammed and his family were great caregivers for my dog over the Thanksgiving weekend. He gots lots of love and attention. Plus they were so flexible with communication and the pickup/drop-off times. I would recommend them to everyone.”


“Nawarat is truly amazing! She cared for Archie as if he were her own, constantly sending me updates with pictures and videos. She’s by far the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. I definitely know who to turn to next time I need pet sitting services!”


“Renata provided exceptional care for Timothy. Following a strict potty training schedule, she successfully ensured that he returned fully potty trained. Additionally, Renata took him on extended walks, encouraging his curiosity to lead the way. Renata will be my go to sitter moving forward!”


“I am grateful for the communication and treatment of Alaska. There was always communication in the morning and afternoon with updates and photos.”


About: My seven years of pet care have been a transformative journey, filled with both the immense joy and the occasional challenges inherent in responsible animal companionship. From the initial excitement of welcoming a new furry member into my home to the quiet comfort of established routines, I've learned to anticipate their needs, understand their unique personalities, and navigate the unexpected hurdles of illness, training, and aging. This experience has instilled in me a deep appreciation for the bond between humans and animals, fostering patience, empathy, and a profound sense of responsibility. It's been a rewarding education in unwavering commitment and unconditional love, shaping me as much as it has shaped my beloved companions. Integrating pet care into my daily schedule requires mindful planning and prioritization. Morning routines include feeding, watering, and a quick potty break for my pet. Throughout the day, shorter interactions like playtime or a walk are interspersed with my other commitments, ensuring my pet receives attention and exercise without disrupting my workflow significantly. Evening routines mirror the morning, ending with a final potty break and a comforting interaction before bedtime. This structured approach ensures my pet's needs are consistently met while maintaining a balanced and productive personal schedule. I will Accommodate to different pets if they need more potty breaks or more walks. My home is my sanctuary, a place of peace and security. The sturdy walls and reliable locks offer a comforting sense of safety, allowing me to relax and unwind. Beyond the house, a sprawling backyard provides a private oasis. The ample space allows for outdoor activities and relaxation, further enhancing the feeling of secure comfort and personal freedom. It's a space where I can truly breathe easy, knowing I'm surrounded by both the protection of my home and the expansive freedom of my own backyard.

“Elena was great with my Bernese Mountain dog. He got lots of walks and attention, and Elena sent many photos and videos. Will be booking with Elena again as soon as I finish this review!”


“Amy was incredibly communicative with updated and pictures. Our dog looked right at home in her house and I could tell Amy and her family treated Frankie like their own. We are so grateful!”


“Leslie is the best dog mom for our boy Hank whenever we need help watching him. She is professional, communicative and always give Hank a great time.”


“This was Bluey’s first time being away from home as he is still a pup. Amruta ensured he’d be safe and well taken care of and he certainly was. Bluey needed additional time warming up because he is shy and Amruta was very understanding and accommodating. It was also hard for me but Amruta reassured me with photos, videos and prompt replies. Thank you for taking such good care of our puppy. If you are looking for quality care please don’t hesitate to book with Amruta. Thank you again, we appreciate you and will use your services again! (:”


“Tony is a caring and skilled pet sitter. Our dog has special needs as a rescue, and Tony handled her with ease. We are already set up for another boarding and know that she’ll be in great hands!”


“Theresa, Easton and their entire family are all amazing. Loved and appreciated all the pictures, videos and updates that were sent to us. Our furbaby was happy and smiling in them all and that's how we know he was definitely well looked after, loved and cared for. Thank you so much y'all, we are glad to have found you guys for future petsitting needs.”


“Sherly was such a great sitter. She was able to accommodate Mya for the weekend on short notice. She treated her like family and sent us constant updates with photos and videos. We couldn’t be happier with the service she provided. Mya was very well cared for and loved on while we were away. We are so thankful for Sherly.”


About: I treat dogs like a member of the family. I love taking them for walks and chilling at home together. I am experienced with dog-sitting for small to medium size dogs. I also have experience with senior dog care and can provide care for dogs who may have difficulty with going up and down stairs, bathroom/accidents, medication, etc. Please let me know if your pet has any special requirements or concerns. I am currently available to provide pet care full time during the weekends only. Later in the summer I will have greater availability as I will have the summer off. I am able to provide boarding or daycare in my home. I had a Jack Russell mix, Ozzy, who passed away in April 2025. Currently I have no pets. I live in a 3-story townhouse with a fenced backyard, located in a quiet and safe neighborhood. Inside the house, I can make adjustments to best suit the needs of your dog, for example we can use or not use baby gates, doggy door access, or dog steps to help them get on the sofa. I am able to carry dogs up to 30 pounds comfortably and safely up the stairs if necessary.

I have already had the opportunity to take care of 4 adorable puppies in my previous apartment. I currently have more availability for your pet.
