“I was immediately comfortable leaving my pup with Ori. I boarded my very shy pup with her for two nights. She gave her customized care and kept me updated with pics during her stay. Wonderful home to leave your fur baby. I will definitely call on Ori again.”
“Armando was awesome. He was already waiting for us outside when we were on the way to drop off Bella and the handoff was great. I could tell Bella enjoyed her stay too because she was happy when we picked her up. Armando also updated us during her stay. We are actually going to book him again for next weekend!”
“Monika, is very professional, also quick to respond and very thorough with daily photos and info about our Dog. Alfie, was in good hands, and we will most definitely be reaching out when we travel again”
“Our Maggie had a great time with Daniela and we are so happy to have found someone to care for her when we go out of town. Daniela sent us photos and gave prompt replies that made us feel comfortable while we were away. I think Maggie would say she enjoyed her vacation just as much as we enjoyed ours.”
“Here's a revised version of your text with some adjustments for clarity and flow: Kiyarash did a great job watching my dog, Oreo. When I picked him up, he was calm and happy to see me, which assured me he had been in good hands. The last time I had a sitter, Oreo returned very jumpy and shaky. However, Kiyarash really took care of him, and I will definitely be rebooking him again.”
“Sonia did an outstanding job caring for my two dogs. She was able to take them in at the last minute for a full week, communicated quickly, and sent multiple videos and pictures every day. It really gave me peace of mind knowing they were safe, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“I’m very happy with Rockie’s stay with Renata. She was loving, responsible, and kept me updated with photos and messages. Rockie came home relaxed and happy. I will definitely book again and highly recommend her!”
“Annabelle and Ben were outstanding! They communicated clearly throughout the process - meet and greet, drop off, and pick up. During boarding we got lots of photos and updates...sooooo many walks for our girl Mabel. Got along great with their dog and had a blast! They were all wonderful!”
“Wonderful! That’s what I can say about my experience with Laura and Nicholas. And Moose of course. Paloma looked so happy in the many many pictures they sent of her. In her new scarf Laura kindly made for her. I was getting a little jealous of how at home she was. We will forever use them as Paloma’s sitter!”
“Newman had a wonderful stay with Ryan and Abbey. He came back home comfortable and calm. Ryan also made sure that he ate, stayed hydrated and got timely breaks to go outside. Ryan communicated well and sent us photos and videos along the way. Thank you!”
“Selah did a great job watching Tofu for us! She checked in and sent pictures each morning, and was accessible via text throughout our time away from our furry love. She's comfortable with big dogs (Tofu's pretty strong,) which gave me a lot of comfort.. we'll definitely call her again for our next trip!”
“Alex was great! She treated Lola like family. She sent updates daily with pictures and made out our little girl was having a good time and received the utmost care. She even washed all of Lola’s things before returning them to us which was super nice. Definitely will book again with Alex!”
“My senior dog was really well taken care of by Alexis and Melisa. I loved that they sent me photos several times a day and kept us updated with meals and daily activities.”
“Cammy to the rescue, again! I asked Cammy if she was available for last minute boarding this holiday weekend and, as usual, she came through and was available! Thank you so much, Cammy, for always being there for us! You truly are the best!”
About: I have owned and have been around dogs my whole life! My Aunt owns a daycare/boarding company that I spent every summer at when growing up, learning everything there is to know about caring for different types of dogs, young. old, sick, aggressive, ect. I had a dog of my own until he passed away last year at the age of 14. I miss having a dog so badly, but things are a bit too in flux in my life to be ready to fully commit to adopting another dog. So I remember how hard it always was to find a sitter when we would go out of town or have a day where we would be out 12+ hours, and thought this could be a great way to scratch my itch for having a dog and also help people out who need good care for the fur babies! I have looked after pretty much all of my friends dogs on a regular basis here and they all say how happy their dogs were here compared to other places! I work from home all week so I am home with the animals all day and all night on the weekdays! Weekdays are definitely the best days for me to watch fur babies, but can watch weekends too, just check my calendar, I will always keep it very up to date! I want to keep my prices low as to make care not so difficult and bank breaking to find. If you suddenly need to extend your trip and your care, I might not always be able to accommodate, but I will make sure you know my availability before we book, and I will never make new plans if a booking is already set. I can take last min bookings if my schedule allows it, but you have a better chance booking more in advance! I have a 10 year old cat, she doesn't love dogs, but she mostly keeps to herself on high perches when they are around and stalks around the house at night when were sleeping. If your dog leaves her alone, then they end up peaceful with each other after a few days. Good around cats is required, if your dog likes to chase cats than we are not a good fit. Otherwise I have a big fenced in backyard that the dogs love to run around in and play with toys! Most of the time I just open the back door and let them come in and out of the house as they please! When it comes to talking neighborhood walks, I don't like walking dogs that are under 30lbs, or are too old to run, for fear of being stalked by wild animals like coyotes. I barely ever see them around here (and there is no way for them to get in our backyard), but it only takes once to see one out in the neighborhood to put tiny or older dogs in danger! I would rather run around in the backyard with smaller and elderly dogs.
“Louella is the best! My little chihuahua does great under her care and I never have to worry about him when I go out of town. Thank you for being so dependable and caring!”
“Camille took great care of my pup! Very communicative, sent pictures and updates throughout the visit, was understanding and flexible to my schedule. Definitely will book again if needed. Thanks so much!”

Ori and her family were fantastic with my 3 dogs (1 blind and deaf, one timid and one WILD), they made sure all dogs were safe and still have a great stay. Thank you Ori for taking care of my pack as they have NEVER stayed outside the home before. They will be back, if she will have them again. :)
I’m so glad to have met Louella, she’s a really dedicated fur parent. She has a good heart which my Juno sees and feels. Her environment is great for my dog, the space is a good space for active dogs. She communicates well and I got daily updates along with photos and video. She’s a good match for Juno, she has her own dogs whom became really friendly with Juno. My boy is definitely going back to her dog friendly space.
Frank and his family took such good care of our Maxwell. Frank kept us updated, sending photos and videos of Maxwell daily, and Maxwell seemed so happy in all of them, as well as when we picked him up five days later. We will definitely leave Maxwell with Frank again in the future. Best experience we’ve ever had!
So glad I found Meredith for pet boarding. We adopted our girl from a rescue a few months ago and was very nervous about leaving her for the first time. She was very responsive with communication and updates. Meredith (and her husband) doted on our girl while we were gone. I could tell because our girl seemed attached to both of them when I came back to pick her up. We will definitely be seeing them again in the future!
Lisa was fantastic! She took Apolo out on a pup cup adventure, gave us daily updates with photos and videos. Our dog is super playful and got along incredibly well with her dog so we got lots of footage of them playing and having a blast :) will definitely book again!
We struggled to find someone we really liked to watch our dog between hotels and other people on Rover. Our dog is 5 and this was the first time we had to leave him in someone else’s care but we are SO SO SO glad we found Cammy! She was super kind, very easy to reach, and she has a pug of her own! We loved the setup she has for the dogs- inside and outside. We will definitely refer everyone to her and ask her to watch our dog again in the future. Thank you so much to Cammy and her husband for taking care of our sweet boy. We are very grateful for you both :’)
Pramodh took excellent care of our dog Max while we were away. He kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. It was clear that he treated Max like part of his own family. Max looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We really appreciated the attention, responsibility, and kindness Pramodh showed. I would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him. Thank you, Pramodh!
Dana is the best . I was denied boarding at the airport with my dog, and I was heartbroken. I had prepared all the documents, but they said they needed to make a phone call to verify them. We waited at the gate until the plane finally took off without us. I felt so helpless and walked out of the airport in tears. Then I thought of Dana and texted her right away. She immediately agreed to take care of Malibu. While I was in Hawaii, she sent me daily messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’m truly grateful to her. When I saw Malibu again, He was so happy to see me. That moment meant everything.
It was our first time leaving Shelby with a sitter, and Caira made the entire process seamless. We were definitely nervous since it was our first time using Rover, but she answered all of our questions and immediately put us at ease. Our meet and greet went great. She showed us around her space and was very attentive to Shelby’s needs. He’s an 80 lb unneutered German Shepherd, so we’re mindful about him, but Caira handled him confidently and thoughtfully. During his stay, she took him on several walks, sent us daily photos, communicated frequently, and even took him on a beautiful hike. It meant so much to see him happy and well cared for while we were away. We would absolutely trust her with Shelby again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
We are always nervous leaving our dogs with a new sitter. They tend to be anxious and act out when stressed. To our relief they had such a great time with Elise. They were so relaxed and snuggly, which is unusual for our more shy pup. She provided such a calming environment for them. We received frequent updates and pictures so we never had to worry about how they were doing. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing they were happy and well cared for. We will definitely be using Elise again for our future dog sitting needs!
Excellent boarding for my dog while abroad for 3 weeks. I picked him up happy, clean, smelling good, well fed and content. I was provided with photos and updates regularly and no drama. Thank you very much for taking such good care in a dog loving family environment.
Ryan and Abbey were absolutely wonderful! They took such great care of our dog and treated them like part of their own family. Communication was excellent throughout—quick responses, regular updates, and plenty of photos that really put our minds at ease. It was clear from the start that they are both experienced, attentive, and genuinely love animals. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which says everything. We would not hesitate to book with Ryan and Abbey again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, loving pet sitters on Rover.
