“We were so pleased with Lane watching Roscoe. Roscoe seemed in good spirits when we picked him up. Lane would send us photos which made us feel good. We recommend Lane wholeheartedly. Ray & Jean”


“Home away from home for my Augie doggie. Kristina sent me a hilarious video of Augie lying in the kiddie pool, chasing his fellow dog buds and then jumping back into the kiddie pool again. Will definitely return.”


“Jenny is the absolute best dog sitter! My dog loved staying with her. Jenny kept us updated everyday and took amazing care of my dog. She is extremely easy to work with and catered to all the needs of my dog. I have already rebooked more stays for my dog with her! Seriously people do not look any further she is the one to take care of your doggie daycare or overnight stays. She is qualified and cares so much about dogs!!”


“I highly recommend Alyssa T. as a dog-sitter on Rover. She took in my cavachon Merry for a week over the Christmas holidays, and she and her family treated Merry like a princess! I received daily updates and photos which made me feel so at ease as I had never left Merry for so long before. I also received a short video of Merry and the family's dog playing, and I knew Merry was having a wonderful time!”


“Lisa and Steve were awesome with our girl Maple! Maple is very shy and timid, and can growl at people and dogs she’s not familiar with. They were understanding of this and worked with her by keeping her in a lower stress environment until she was ready to open up. They also sent us a bunch of photos and kept us updated continuously, which helped put our minds at ease. We would 1000% book with them again!”


“Heather and James were amazing! Their setup is perfect—plenty of room for play, comfort, and a safe, welcoming environment. Communication was top-notch, and they even fit me in last minute. I’m pretty sure my dog Yogi was a little hesitant to leave… which says it all! 😂 It’s clear they’re experienced with animals and treat every pup like family. I’d absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy Rover sitter!”


About: I have two dogs personally and have been a dog sitting for friends & family for many years. Whether your pet needs structured playtime, quiet companionship, or a little help getting around, I’ve got it covered! I work full time from home so I am always home to help with whatever your dog needs may be. I take my personal dogs on multiple walks per day during my breaks and will be happy to provide the same care for your dogs. I have a back deck with a gate that is completely closed in that my dogs personally LOVE! We sit out there and sunbathe and watch the birds. I also take them on multiple walks per day to make sure we are getting plenty of exercise. In the evenings and on weekends we like to venture out for a hike or go to the local dog park.

“Deborah was absolutely wonderful all the way around! I felt so comfortable leaving my big fur baby with her. She sent pictures and updates, and treated him like her own. I’m grateful he was able to play in a wide variety of settings, sleep comfortably, and even come home ready for a nap! This was my first time leaving him with someone, and I will absolutely come to Deborah first for the second time around. I feel comfortable using Rover as a whole starting out with such a positive experience. I would recommend her to anyone!”


“This was my fur baby’s first time away from our family. I couldn’t be more confident in leaving him with Erica. I got great vibes from the family and felt that his surroundings were safe. Great communication and pix. I have no doubt that my baby was given plenty of love in my absence. I would definitely recommend Erica and will be a return customer.”


“Heather and her family are great! She took great care of my sweet Jojo and sent us pictures and updates throughout the day. Heather is very trustworthy and a great communicator. I definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future.”


“Communication was excellent. We are totally satisfied and at ease leaving our dog who has spring allergies. He was loved as if he was theirs. Finally we have a go to dog sitter where we can enjoy our time away without worry. Highly recommend.”



“Kayla was amazing and very easy to work with! My doggies had a room for themselves and a nice fenced in yard to play! Came back home very happy! Thanks Kayla for working with us!”


“Joyce was an absolute pleasure to work with. My vacation was last minute, so I was extremely grateful to find the Rover app and website, but finding Joyce was even more of a godsend. I could tell right off that she loves dogs, has a passion for dog sitting, and strives to make both animals and their owners as happy as possible. She provided periodic updates, images as well as a video, and set my mind at ease. Thank you very much Joyce, I really appreciate it.”


“We had an excellent experience with Aimee! She was friendly, attentive, and communicative; she sent me loads of photos so I could check in with my dog, Duncan,while I was out of town. For his part, Duncan had so much fun getting to play in Aimee's yard with her very sweet dog, Max. He also got loads of cuddle time every day! I would definitely book Aimee again to sit Duncan the next time I travel.”



“Cheyanne took such great care of our dog Ace while we were on vacation! I can tell that he had so much fun and enjoyed his stay. Without a doubt, we will continue to use her services in the future!?”
