“Tara was Great. She met with me before his stay to get to know her. By the time I left he felt a ease. She sent updates each day which put me at ease. Would highly recommend Tara. Would definitely use again. I highly recommend”
“Amazing sitter! Got a lot of updates which really eased my anxieties about leaving my puppy. She was super kind and made sure that I knew she was ok throughout my whole trip. She went above and beyond by brushing her and walking her multiple times a day. If you’re looking for a sitter I would recommend her any day.”
About: I have experience overnight dog sitting, check-ins with dogs, and dog walking. I have even been noted by my hairdresser that her shy cat really liked me for some reason, while she was sitting on my lap! work full time onsite, but I’m very organized with my schedule and make pet care a true priority. I’m punctual, dependable, and responsive, with consistent availability for walks, drop-ins, and overnight sitting before and after work, as well as evenings and weekends. Pets receive attentive, reliable care and plenty of affection. I am very patient, especially with animals. I do understand that regardless, they are animals so I do proceed with caution no matter the situation. Communication is also key and I create open communication to make sure all parties are in safe environments and situations.
“Sandra is great! I could tell Mojo really enjoyed being there with her and I loved how she kept me updated on how things were going and providing photos a videos throughout his stay. She took him on long walks and let the kids play with him, which I know he soaked up every ounce of that extra love!”
“Dennise was great with my senior pup. Very patient and accommodating. Pretty Boy was very comfortable with her. We will definitely be back for another stay!”

“Karina and her wonderful family were so kind and patient with my high anxiety dog. He had never been boarded before, and didn’t react well. But with her nurturing he finally calmed down. I know that could not have been easy. If I need a dog sitter again, I will definitely use Karina.”
“Charlie had a great first stay with Lipika. He was loved on and well taken care of while we were on vacation. We loved our daily videos and updates which put our minds at ease while we were away. He is a high anxiety little guy and Lipika was able to accommodate his special needs.”
“Our dogs loved staying at Nancy's! Her yard and deck are amazing for them to play, and she clearly loves the dogs so much. They had a ton of fun with the other dogs she was boarding, too. Definitely recommend Nancy for dog boarding!!”
“Anamika was amazing. We were so nervous about leaving our furbaby with someone for the first time but she made it a pleasant experience. She kept us posted with photos and video which comforted us while we were away. She followed all feeding directions as well as our dog’s daily routine. We loved that our dog was able to run and play with other dogs and get in some exercise. We will definitely be booking again. Thank you again Anamika.”
“highly recommend Jasmine for dog sitting! She took wonderful care of Azula while I was away. Jasmine’s communication was fantastic—she kept me updated every day and always responded quickly to any questions. I really appreciated all the adorable photos she sent, which helped me feel completely at ease knowing Azula was happy and well cared for. She also made sure Azula got plenty of walks and exercise. It’s clear Jasmine genuinely loves animals, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Azula!”
“Absolutely — here’s a more natural, heartfelt version: --- Kayla was amazing with our pup! She kept us updated with pictures and messages, which really helped us relax while we were away.

University City South dog parents share their Rover experiences
My two girls had a great time staying for three nights. I have one chill pup and one w more energy. And she usually takes about 2 or 3 days to let new people touch her. However, I got cuddle photos of her the next day. That was super helpful for me to see that my dogs were comfortable and happy. I got lots of photos and videos. I will book Maria again for sure!
Jeddah was the best! I had to move out of state and she provided in home care for my 2 babies last minute! While away i also had a family emergency where she still accommodated my dogs. She communicates well, my dogs loved her i guess they could tell that she truly loves animals. My pit and frenchie thanks you
My little Ash had a great stay with Nancy and her pups. As a new puppy mom I was a bit anxious to leave my girl for a few days but was very happy to get photo updates and reassurance from Nancy that she was not only doing ok but fitting right in and having a blast. Thanks, Nancy!
Rhema took great care of Charvey for a full week and we couldn’t be more pleased. She was communicating daily and we were able to work out the one issue we ran into immediately and smoothly. We have found a great new sitter in Rhema and that’s a great comfort.
We have booked with Karina 3 times and she has been amazing since the very beginning! Very communicative, sends photos and updates regularly, and my dog Zen always comes home exhausted from all the fun he has running around and exploring in their fenced in back yard! Highly recommend Karina if you want to have peace of mind that your fur baby is well taken care of!
Lewis was beyond amazing!! We could not have asked for anyone better to watch Finny! Finny has so many personalities and Lewis was amazing with him! He kept Finny busy everyday and played with him non stop. He have Finny so much attention and love. I will absolutely have Lewis watch Finny again.
Ashtonette and her family were wonderful hosts to my 7 year old pup! They provided picture updates multiple times a day, were responsive and accommodating for Kiki and her needs. They monitored her time with other dogs as well which gave me a big dose of relief, and she seemed to make herself at home right away with sniffing and meeting everyone, so leaving her for a short stay didn't drum up the anxiety she otherwise would have. Great sitter, great experience!
Leaving my dear baby is never easy, but sometimes it's necessary. Tara was quick to respond to my initial request for a boarding, and leaving my Bella with her gave me peace of mind, knowing she was in good hands and would be cared for as if she were at home. Tara’s friendly communication and update pictures reassured me of her professionalism and loving care. I will definitely reach out again for boarding in the future.
I would rate Trina a 10/10 without hesitation. She truly impressed me with her professionalism and how polite she was throughout the entire experience. My dog doesn’t usually warm up to people and rarely cooperates for photos, but Trina was amazing with her. Not only did my dog feel comfortable, but she also managed to capture so many adorable photos that I’ll genuinely cherish. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her again in the future.
Tara was amazing with my pets, Corvus and Tito. She kept me updated regularly, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. Everything went smoothly, and it was clear they were well cared for. I’d definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.
Siyanda was incredible with my dog! My dog had some anxiety episodes while in her care and she handled it with patience and kindness. She was very communicative to ensure the behaviors he was exhibiting were normal for him and not to be of concern. She brought him on a lot of relaxing walks throughout their time together. He came home very happy. I would trust Siyanda with any dog. Thank you!
We had a great experience with our Rover pet sitter! She was extremely communicative and punctual, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free. She kept me updated throughout the stay with Willow and clearly cared about making sure everything was going well. At one point I accidentally didn’t leave quite enough food for Willow, and she handled it without any issue—quickly pivoting and making sure Willow was taken care of. I really appreciated how proactive and flexible she was. Overall, she was reliable, attentive, and easy to work with. I’d absolutely book with her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable sitter.
Shaniah was the sitter for my dog Charlie, and she absolutely outdid herself! From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make sure Charlie was well cared for, comfortable, and happy. She was attentive, loving, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares about animals and treats them like her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Charlie. I highly recommend Shaniah to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and amazing with pets! 🐾💛
