“Pips was SO HAPPY while she was with Nikcole and her family. She actually pouted for a few hours after I picked her up yesterday. She was sad to have leave them behind. I'm sure got way more attention than she usually gets. Nikcole sent photos every day. It was a great experience and I'd definitely book her again in the future.”
“Sung watched my Rhodesian Ridgeback for the weekend. Although she was shy at first they warmed up and took her to the beach to enjoy some sand and sun. I received few pictures and updates the first day but they increased as the weekend went on. Overall my dog was happy and healthy when I picked her up.”
“We needed someone to watch our fur babies for 3+ weeks so really wanted to find someone amazing and boy we got lucky! Diana took such great care of them that they basically got their own vacation while we were on our vacation! She sent me pics/videos/updates about what they like to do daily which put us at ease. My kids looked forward to Diana’s daily updates:) We already rebooked her for our next vacation!”
“Christopher was very kind and flexible with our last-minute request to take care of Leo. We received many thoughtful pictures throughout the day and Leo seemed to have a good time boarding at Christopher for the day. Thank you and Leo will visit you again next time we re in town.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for about 11 years and have grown up around animals my entire life. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me many times to walk, feed, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable following routines, caring for different personalities, and making sure every dog feels safe/loved, and right at home with us. Pet care fits easily with my daily routine. I have a flex schedule that allows me plenty of time to focus on the dogs in my care throughout the day. Walks, playtime, meals, and cuddle time, along with as many updates so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. I create a relaxed, loving space where dogs can settle in and feel at home. I have a fenced yard for frequent supervised outdoor play time and always follow each dog’s routine. Dogs are welcome on the couch/bed unless you prefer otherwise, and I’m happy to kennel if that’s what your pup is used to. Im very flexible cause my biggest goal is for every dog to feel at home away from home.
“This was our second time using Al and we will continue to use him! Al and his wife Dody took great care of our dog Bo for the night. Al is very easy to communicate with, is responsive, is always ready when we first arrive and when we pick up and if you want, he will send you pictures of your dog while you are away. We are very comfortable leaving Bo with Al and Dody and will definitely use him the next time we go out of town!”
“Vean was amazing! We felt completely comfortable leaving Chip with them. Vean was communicative, sending us updates of Chip. I could tell our fur baby was happy and well-cared for. We highly recommend Vean.”
“Rachel, thank you all the love and care you gave my pups! They came home happy campers! I was thrilled with all the photos you sent me, it meant a lot! Thank you so much!🙏🐶🐶😊”
“Marilyn and family did an outstanding job with Chowder. I know she worked overtime because Chowder is a puppy with lLOTS of energy and is still in training. He came home happy and she even taught him a new trick. I’m really thankful for the incredible care they took of my puppy and for the daily updates she provided. It really put me at ease. Thank you so much!!!”

Sunset Beach dog parents share their Rover experiences
Megan and her family were absolutely wonderful with Bowie. They made him feel as comfortable as if he were their own. Bowie was just as happy and playful as when he’s at home. When we picked him up, Bowie looked back a few times when we left as if asking, do I really have to leave. Equally important to us as Bowie parents, Megan made sure we were comfortable the whole time we were away.
Jeff and Tammy were awesome! Cooper was well taken care of while we were out of town. They sent lots of pictures and videos and checked in regularly with us. Cooper had a blast playing and going on walks. We would definitely recommend having Jeff and Tammy care for dog. We will definitely be reaching out to them again for future needs.
Carrie and her family were fabulous sitters. We received regular feedback and pictures. We could easily see our dog was feeling comfortable and being well cared for. The entire family was involved in his care and we felt so comfortable with him being at their home! Such a great experience.
I have left my sweet dogs at Jon’s for years. He and his wife are dog whisperers. They know dogs. They got my tiny very fearful 7 pound dog comfortable with other dogs. That’s something I had been trying to do forever. When I pull up to their house my dogs start getting excited and wagging their tails. They run right up to his door and scratch to get in! I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Kayla watched my dog for an extended stay recently and was amazing. She did a fantastic job of sending me updates throughout my pups stay with lots of pictures included; I could tell from the photos that he settled right in and was very comfortable with her. I will definitely be using her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
Erica is incredibly kind and took amazing care of our dog, Laika! She was attentive to all of Laika’s needs, especially during the 4th of July fireworks, which can be stressful for our pet. I really appreciated the thoughtful updates she sent. They gave me peace of mind knowing Laika was in great hands. Highly recommend!
