“Leah and Leio (and their kids) were so loving towards Luca and went out of their way to treat him like family during his stay :) We received updates and photos often, which we loved! When I mentioned that Luca likes to look out windows during the day, they made efforts to ensure that he could do just that at their house :) Another thing I appreciated was how much info they asked upfront in our meet and greet in order to meet all of Luca’s needs and understand the manners/rules he follows when he’s at home (e.g. no table food, sitting & waiting before taking his food). This was very considerate and showed a lot of respect for Luca’s norms :) Luca got lots of love, lots of walks, and lots of space to roam during his stay! We would bring Luca back to stay with them in a heartbeat! If you’re looking for a family that will love your dog like their own and do everything they can to make your pup at home while you’re away, Leah and Leio will be the right fit for you.”
About: My 3.5 y/o corgi, Kiko, would tell you I love all dogs, almost too much. For the last 13+ years, I’ve been fortunate enough to be responsible for at least 1, and most of the time 2 dogs of my own. While I have no formal training or certifications , I’m great with puppies still learning a routine, senior dogs who need a strict routine and everyone in between. I’m a very calm human so even nervous dogs are comfortable with me. I currently work from home, so I’m really good for dogs who require a little extra attention or struggle being left alone for long periods. I have a spacious two bedroom apartment with one flight of stairs and a nice balcony/patio for bird watching and sun bathing. When Kiko is here, we go on at least 3 walks a day, weather permitting, and make regular trips to various dog parks to see his friends throughout the week. When he’s not, we’ll still walk a lot but maybe fewer dog park visits unless that’s your dog’s thing too. If the cheapest sitter you can find is what you’re looking for, I’m not your person. However, under my watch, your dog will be safe, extremely well cared for, and loved like they are my own. Your dog will get the same care if I’m at your place and I share custody of Kiko, so his presence is not always guaranteed.
“Carl is an amazing sitter! Very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and I could tell our boy was very comfortable and having a great time while we were gone. Carl’s space is fantastic for any pets, our dog loved being there. I will absolutely reach out to Carl first in the future for any sitting needs.”
“Martha has been taking care of my dogs for many years. She is wonderful and I love that the pups are staying in a family atmosphere. I think she is the BEST!!”
“Meg and Daniel were WONDERFUL!! I have no doubt that Nola had the very best time while in their care. They proactively read other reviews from past sitters and were ready to make my dog feel at home as soon as she arrived. Their communication was great, and I also enjoyed getting to know them during drop-off and pick-up. Any time I need a sitter moving forward, I will definitely check to see if they're available!”
“Jennifer was one of the best hosts we’ve used on Rover. She was flexible and responsive when it came to organizing a meet and greet with her Junebug. She responds instantly, there’s no waiting to hear back from Jennifer. She’s got a great fenced backyard for the dogs. We will definitely rebook with her again!”
“Loic and Kristin send photos every day and take our two year old Schnoodle Poppy for long walks. Their kids are also great about playing with Poppy and giving her lots of love. This is our second stay with this family and I will definitely use them again. Poppy comes home happy and well exercised!”
“Chantal was gentle and caring with my tiny Pom, Boba. He got some exercise and good quality outdoor time with her. She was very curious about everything Boba so that she could give him the best stay possible. Happy to have found her on Rover since she lives in my neighborhood and Boba is used to the quiet streets.”
“Deborah was amazing with my pup. I could tell Kona enjoyed her stay and there was great communication. So grateful to have found someone I can trust to watch Kona while I’m away!”
“I left my cat with Anhelina for a week and it was an amazing decision. Anhelina sent photos and videos of my cat everyday. She also responded quickly to my messages. I highly recommend Anhelina. She’ll make sure your little one is comfortable.”
“Scarlet is extremely flexible. We are notoriously late and she is always kind and accommodating. We also love that she only takes one client at a time, so our Rosie gets all of their attention.”
“Nafa seemed to have a wonderful time with Daria, and came hope tired and happy. Daria was easy to communicate and plan with, and sent lots of cute pictures of my dog throughout the stay. Thank you!”
“Colleen was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was warm, kind, and sent lots of updates. I felt safe leaving my fur daughter with her and would definitely go back. Thanks, Colleen! ❤️”
“Quinten is a dog lover and took very good care of Mickey. We received regular video updates, it almost seemed that our dog had a better vacation than we did! If you are looking for a good sitter, Quinten is you guy!”
“Kristina responded quickly to my last minute request. She was open to chatting with me to learn about him and how she could make him comfortable. Even though my dog has some behavior problems, Kristina was still open to working with him. She kept us up to date with pictures and comments on how he was doing. She treated my dog very well. I wouldn't hesitate to have Kristina watch my dog again in the future.”
“Jillian was fantastic and perfect for our pups. We needed boarding in a home environment without other animals. Communication was great. I could tell that our pups were really well cared for and had a good time.”
“I can’t say enough great things about the care my puppy Abbey received in Richard’s home while we were on vacation. Richard put me at ease, sent daily updates and kept up with my high- energy pup. You can tell he truly loves dogs and letting them to know his pups as well. I highly recommend Richard for your dog care!”
“I couldn’t be happier with how well Patricia and her family cared for my dog. He came home happy, well fed, and sounded like he had a great time. Appreciated the video of his stay too! Highly recommend and would absolutely use again.”

Jamie was so wonderful! The dog sitter we had lined up had a last minute change and couldn't watch our dog and Jamie was able to swoop in and take our dog! My dog came home rested and looking like she got a lot of cuddles and fun times chasing rabbits. Her house is just perfect for dogs to hang out outside. Thank you so much!
Kizzie is always our preferred sitter for our elderly kitties, and this was our first time having our kitty Ginger boarded with her for 2 weeks, instead of drop-in visits. As always, Kizzie went above and beyond in her care, giving Ginger plenty of play time, brushies, and handling her diaper + air-out time like a pro. 🧼 We loved that she gave her yard exploration (one of her favorite things at home), was extremely thoughtful with how she introduced her own kitty Moco (while they ended up not being bffs, them being in the same room and relaxing said volumes! 💖). It's very obvious that Kizzies cares for cats in her care as if her own, down to laundering the reusable diaper covers we use for Ginger! If I could give 8 stars out of 5 I would, and absolutely recommend her every time. 😁 Thank you as always, Kizzie, appreciate you so much! 🙏🏽
Deborah was amazing with DD. From the moment he arrived, she was patient, kind, and attentive to his needs. She sent lots of updates and photos every day, and I loved reading her observations about DD’s personality and little habits. It was clear that she took the time to understand him and help him feel comfortable in a new environment. Knowing DD was safe, cared for, and loved while we were away made our trip so much more enjoyable. We are very grateful for Deborah’s care and would happily book with her again. Thank you, Deborah!
Taylor was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Flossie, during an 8-night boarding stay while we were out of town in Florida. From the very first message, Taylor was kind, communicative, thoughtful, and incredibly reassuring. You can genuinely tell she has a heart for animals and creates a calm, loving environment for them. She kept us updated consistently with photos and messages throughout the trip, which gave us so much peace of mind. Flossie clearly became comfortable very quickly — cuddling on the couch, relaxing under blankets, going on walks, and getting lots of love and attention. Taylor even figured out a little trick to help with Flossie’s picky eating while away from home, and it worked perfectly! What stood out most was how attentive and caring she was. Flossie wasn’t treated like “just another dog” — she was cared for like family. Taylor was patient during the adjustment period, incredibly responsive, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving our sweet girl in her care. Her home was calm, clean, and welcoming, and I truly appreciated the individualized attention Flossie received with no other pets in the home during her stay. I would absolutely trust Taylor again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for compassionate, reliable, and genuinely loving pet care. Thank you again, Taylor, for taking such amazing care of our girl 🤍🐾
Can’t express my gratitude enough to Olivia and Jason for being so reliable helpful kind and loving with Remy! I literally gave birth this weekend and dropped off Remy who currently needs a bunch of scheduled meds and cream and cone of shame time. Felt 10000% confident that I didn’t need to worry about any of it while I had my big life event- Olivia and Jason took care of all of her needs. And Olivia even gave me some thoughtful postpartum gifts while she was at it- THANK YOU!! 🥹
Tony was great! She was close by and had a big fenced yard with no kids and no pets just like I requested. Sugaree had a rough early life that resulted in some anxiety issues. Tony knew just what to do to help her feel comfortable for a long 2 week stay. She provided updates and photos regularly so I wouldn’t worry and had no problem when I had to pick Sugaree up a bit late. Highly recommended!!
Sara was great, really wanted to make sure that our guys would be comfortable and did a walk through before a long weekend. One of our boys had a little tummy ache while there and Sara called immediately and gave me the details. I appreciated her approach and communication!
Yuri is the best! Our cat is shy but with Yuri she came out of hiding more than usual and looked through the door window to stare at Yuri when she was cooking. Mabel is loving human food lately. We know that she loves staying with Yuri and we feel comfortable. We you are know that she is safe because she texts us every day with pictures of our cat. 😍
Sojeong and her husband are the best and sweetest dog sitters!! They were so attentive and kind to our pepper girl, and she was so happy. They went above and beyond, and pepper was sad to come home to us lol!! We are so grateful for dog sitters that love our pup like we do! Thanks guys!
