“Repeat customer, they did an amazing job just like the first time! Many pictures, cute messages, and even gave us a sweet little photo of his stay to keep. They made him feel at home and he was a happy little camper when he came back. Thank you both so much!!!”
About: I am a stay at home mom with a great lifetime of experience caring for dogs. Dogs have always been a part of my home and family, and providing attentive, nurturing care comes naturally to me. Over the years, I have cared for many dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I am comfortable caring for young dogs, older dogs, and those who require special routines or medications. I am patient, observant, and gentle, and I focus on creating a peaceful, structured environment where dogs feel safe and relaxed. I believe in balancing activity with rest, offering appropriate play, outdoor time, and quiet moments based on each dog's individual needs. Because I am home full time, I am able to give dogs consistent supervision and adjust care as needed throughout the day. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable, attentive care that closely resembles a home with family setting. I am home throughout the day, which allows me to provide dogs with consistent attention, care, and companionship. Because my schedule is very flexible, pets are not left alone for long periods and are closely monitored in a calm home environment. I am happy to accommodate a wide range of drop off and pick up times. When needed, trusted family members are nearby to help ensure continuity of care. My priority is making sure your dog always feels secure, attended to, and comfortable. My home includes a secure, enclosed yard that allows dogs to enjoy fresh air and outdoor time safely. There is ample room for movement, rest, and supervised play. follow each dog's feeding schedule exactly as requested and make sure clean water is available at all times. I take routines seriously and am very attentive to any specific instructions so your dog's daily habits and comfort are maintained while in my care.
“Connie has been caring for my senior spaniel for 2 years now. She is warm and kind and gentle, and my shy gal took to her right away. Connie sends lots of photos and it’s clear that my little gal is living her best life while I’m gone. I am so grateful for the peace of mind Connie provides and will continue to book her whenever I’m traveling.”
“Hanah & Dabin took such great care of our rescue dog Lilo during her first 2-week boarding stay 🥹💕 Since she’s a rescue, she can be pretty fearful and shy in new environments, so we were honestly nervous leaving her for that long for the first time. They sent us lots of photo/video updates, were incredibly patient and warm with her, and made us feel so at ease the whole time. It was so comforting seeing Lilo slowly open up and enjoy herself 🐶 We’re super grateful for all the love and care they gave her, and we’d absolutely book with them again!! 💛”
“Ning was amazing with Luna! It was my first time leaving my 6 month old puppy for a weekend and she sent lots of picture & video updates so I could feel connected to Luna and see how she was adjusting in a new environment. Ning paid attention to Luna’s body language and made her feel comfortable at her own pace, and I could tell Luna had a great time. I will definitely be booking again!”
“We had such a great experience with Gracie! From the very beginning, she was professional, friendly, and clearly love animals. She took amazing care of my dog River, kept me updated with messages and photos, and made sure my pup felt comfortable and happy the entire time. I really appreciated the attention to detail and how she followed all instructions perfectly. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Gracie to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾”
“He lives in a great community with plenty of open spaces, parks, and trails. My dog looks very happy with him. He fed, walked, and played with my dog. He also sent me photos and videos how he took care of my dog. He is a dog lover and great carer.”
“Cal & Susie were super great taking care of Hubble on multiple visits. Our dog loves being around people, and it's clear their family looked after him as if Hubble was their own. They sent us lots of photos while we were away, and are super helpful with coordinating dropoffs and pickups around the complexities of travel.”
“Deborah was the best person we could’ve found to take care of our dog Chelsea. She was very nice and caring towards her, al her experience fostering dogs really showed up. Normally Chelsea doesn’t open up to strangers but she was very happy and confident with Deborah. Everyday we received picture or video updates she looked like she was having the best time. I would 100% recommend Deborah if you’re looking for someone trustworthy to take care of your fur baby. ❤️”
“We had such a great experience! Kiryl took amazing care of our dog for the entire week and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands. He was reliable, attentive, and clearly loves what he does. We wouldn't hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you Kiryl!”
“Laura outdoes herself when caring for our pups! We have been avid rover users for years but she really takes the medal for spoiling them with such love! Between all the updates, adventures they go on, and souvenirs, they really are getting the most luxurious getaway! Thank you so much Laura!! Such an amazing find for us.”
“What an amazing first experience with Rover! Ines was just what we were looking for in a dog sitter. Lots of pictures and updates of our little pup. I appreciated the time and effort of Ines and will most definitely book with her again! Your dog will be in the best hands! I”
“I cannot rave enough about Nicole. She responded to my request immediately, was extremely flexible, kind, and professional, and made my dog who can be very anxious extremely comfortable. She sent me cute pics of my pup throughout the weekend at the beach, playing with other new dog friends, and getting lots of love and attention. It made our family vacation so much better having peace of mind knowing our dog was being well taken care of. I will definitely be calling Nicole the next time we are in the Newport Beach area!”
“I had to look for a last minute pet sitter for the weekend and Saewon came through. I was nervous leaving my dog overnight but after meeting her I was confident my dog was in good hands. She was very responsive and respectful, she took care of my dog like her own. She sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout the day. I hope to use her in the future.”
“We are so~ thrilled to have found JK! She lives in a great gated community where she can easily gives walks! Loved all the amazing photos and videos! Thank you for the updates and letting us know how he’s doing! I know Ollie had a great time home away from home! :)”
“Bridget was absolutely incredible with our boy! She and her family were so kind and caring, and updated us with lots of photos and videos. Our dog unexpectedly fell sick, and she not only immediately notified us, but took him to the emergency vet within minutes. She felt comfortable caring for him at home and he recovered well with her. Our dog became part of the family with her, and we would not hesitate to ask Bridget to watch him again in the future. She is an absolute gem!”
“We are so lucky to find Tina for our puppy Mae! This is our first time to use Rover and are extremely nervous. I read so many reviews before we decided on Tina and it turned out to be the best decision for our fur baby! Tina and family took really good cares of Mae, kept me updated on how Mae was doing on daily basis with photos and videos. Tine really gave us a peace of mind while we were away and we definitely will send Mae to Tina every time we travel. Thank you Tina and your beautiful girls!!”

Thank you so much for watching Chi. You were so eager and prompt with your replies and so willing to accommodate. Meeting you before we left her for the first time out our minds at ease. Thank you and your daughter and even your dog for your care. I can’t wait to have her in your care again!
Kona had a fantastic time with Ryan, Marianna, and Remy - she was completely spoiled. We had many photo updates daily over our trip and could tell she was enjoying her stay. She loved playing with Remy and got outside for a lot of walks. She can’t wait to go back for another visit!
The perfect dog hosts! Hanah and Dabin took such great care of our dog - they were kind, communicative, and flexible! They treated Peach with care and thoughtfulness; she was walked and played with and kept engaged the entirety of her stay. And a bonus: Hanah sent such sweet pictures of our pup to keep us updated while we were gone. We couldn’t recommend them more highly!
We couldn't be happier with the care Lily receives with Jackie! Over the past year, Jackie's hosted Lily for multiple overnight staycations, and Lily has enjoyed every single one. It's become a home away from home for her. From the very first stay, Jackie kept us completely at ease with multiple updates throughout the day that let us know exactly how Lily was doing. It makes being away so much easier knowing we're always in the loop. Jackie goes out of her way to encourage Lily to socialize and play with the other dogs in her care. Lily always comes home happy, well-exercised, and clearly having had a wonderful time.
Connie earned my trust years ago. I have left my dog Yolanda with her probably 15 times. Connie seems to be super sensitive to the feelings of my dog, as shown over and over in the photos of Yolanda that she has sent daily during all of my dog's stays with her. Yolanda is not well and takes roughly 10 pills each day so I need to have someone who I can rely on during the times when I am away and that person is Connie. I don't take a trip unless I know Yolanda can stay with Connie.
Our dog loves spending time with Chloe; and Chloe is so great at taking care of all our dog's needs, including medication, feeding schedule, and walks. She kept us updated while we were away and sent us daily photos. Thank you for taking such good care of our pup!
I cannot recommend Dariya highly enough! One of our dogs has severe separation anxiety so if you’re nervous about leaving your fur babies and looking for a trustworthy, patient, attentive, and responsible home/pet sitter then I can guarantee you that she is the one to book. Dariya will put your mind at peace and that’s priceless! Dariya took the time to understand our dog’s quirks and routines. Like I said, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She absolutely found a repeat client with us! Any new client would be lucky to have her watch their home and pets!
My boyfriend and i had a great experience leaving our puppy brisket with Volha and kiryl! i had a family emergency so we had to make a last minute flight out of the states and vohla and kiryl were extremely accommodating. They kept us updated with messages and photos, gave our dog so much love and attention. When we picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly very well cared for. We’re so grateful for their kindness, reliability, and communication throughout the entire stay. we absolutely rebook again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitters! 😊
Tamia was so sweet and responsive. She kept me updated on my little guy while I was away. Even after receiving him, I can tell he was in good spirits. She took him on walks and was able to stick to his meal plan. I would definitely trust Tamia again with my fur child. Thank you so much, Tamia!
