About: Dogpark local from the downtown area. I have a dog, Barbie, and my two cats, Kori and Envy. I’m active, positive, professional, and gentle. I feed both my cats and dog in the morning and afternoon. I take Barbie out every morning and afternoon, sometimes at night around the park. All of my animals are very playful. I am a Dogpark local, who takes care of many of my friends pets and homes. This includes taking them to the Dog Park, walking, and sitting for them.
“Grey was an absolute delight! He consistently went above and beyond to ensure the well-being of our fur babies. He diligently took care of them, kept us informed and updated daily, and showed great consideration for our home. We would be thrilled if Grey could watch the fur babies again!”

“Rachel provided the best care for Apollo while we were on vacation. We were anxious to leave our elderly boy for a week, but Rachel put our minds at ease. We didn't have to worry about how he was doing because we received pictures and video daily. When an incident happened with Apollo, she communicated immediately and responded with professionalism, kindness and understanding. Apollo and our home were well cared for and we would recommend 100% recommend her services to others.”

“I'm so glad I found Nev for a last minute trip. They were so thorough during our meet and greet, and my shy cat Yuki took to them immediately. I felt so secure, knowing they were with my babies all weekend! I can't wait to book them again.”

“Nichole was amazing! She kept my four animals for a few days, and when I came back home, the house was clean and the pets were happy. She was communicative everyday and took great care of my pets! Would highly recommend!”


“She was fantastic. Took extra care of our two pets. My dog is super anxious and yet did great with her. She contacts you just enough to let you know how everything is going. Would recommend to anyone. :)”

“This was my first time in about 3 years of having to leave Xena alone with a sitter, I'm not sure who was more anxious, me or the dog. After the meet and greet with Leah, I knew that her and Xena would be friends. Leah was great at keeping my nerves at bay by providing updates and sending pictures. Xena was genuinely excited to have Leah watch her and that makes me happy. I could not recommend Leah enough - she was fantastic.”

“Ericka calmed all my fears about leaving my reactive pup with her! She sent me lots of pictures and just took such good care of them! My dogs loved Ericka 🥰 (I’m only begrudgingly leaving this review bc I selfishly want to keep her for myself!)”

About: I have a genuine connection to animals and care deeply for them. In my own home I care for a senior dog and two bunnies. I always give my animals my first and my best. My schedule is flexible as I prepare for graduate school. My goal is to make some connections with families that need additional pet care that I can work my schedule around to accommodate theirs. In my client's home I will be sure to understand and fulfill all of the specific expectations they have for their pets. I will provide love, comfort and a safe environment for any and all pets. While you are away, at work or just need a little extra support I will make sure your sweet pet feels all the love they are missing.
“She went above and beyond. Was great at communicating and sent lots of pictures for peace of mind. You can tell she truly loves animals!!! We will be using her again”

“Ashley was fantastic! Her background as a former vet tech really shows—she’s incredibly knowledgeable about puppies and made us feel completely at ease. We also reached out last minute, and she was so accommodating and flexible with our schedule. We’re really grateful for her help and would definitely book with her again!”
“Ciria was great with our dogs and cat! She was very communicative and provided us with great updates through the day! The dogs loved her, and our home looked very clean when we came back. Definitely would have her watch our dogs again!”

“Great service and excellent communication. My pets were very well taken care of and they even managed to make friends with my antisocial cat. They sent tons of pictures throughout the visit and stayed in constant communication. Would definitely book with them again.”

“She was absolutely amazing. Super attentive and updated me throughout the day with pics. Made us feel much at ease. Would highly recommended and will be hiring again! 5 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


About: I’ve always grown up around dogs and have owned them throughout my life. As a student attending school to major in Veterinary Medicine, I want to get the best experience I can day by day. I currently own a doxie right now and she truly deserves the best. I am currently a sophomore student athlete going into my second semester. I want to be able to stay busy and get some experience with a variety of pets by understanding day by day. Also please understand that I will do my best to keep my availability updated, and as a student athlete please have patience with me. Thank you! I believe that caring for an animal is like caring for a child. The attention and care is a priority, as I do have a doxie myself. She is my whole world and she truly deserves the best along with all other pets!
“Damien did an amazing job at caring for my dogs. They warmed up to him very quickly loved being around him. He was also very respectful of the house and very clean. I will be booking him again. I highly recommend Damien to anyone needing a good sitter.”

“Lindsey was amazing! She helped us out with a last minute trip and was very communicative. She sent lots of pictures of my babies and they seemed to love the attention. Would absolutely recommend her!”

University Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Another stellar visit with Rebeccahlynn! She is so wonderful with our 14 year old Shih Tzu Barkley - this is her second time staying at our house while we were on holiday. She is incredibly responsive, kind and attentive. We received tons of photos and updates while away, which gave us a great peace of mind. I’m reluctant to give her such a stellar review as she may become too popular for future bookings. But she is really amazing with our precious little man.

Ashley was super understanding and thoughtful. She knows her way around cats and I was very grateful to have someone who kept them company. I also have a newly senior cat and she was able to handle her supplements and her asthma. Thank you so much again Ashley!

Jianna was an amazing sitter for our babies!! Our pups immediately felt comfortable with her, she communicated and made sure to give me regular updates with lots of photos and was overall a great person! So happy we found her to watch our babies while we are away!

Christine responded quickly to my request, and met up with me and my dogs to better acquaint herself with them. Christine was caring and professional while caring for my dogs, and maintained communication with me. She has a sunny disposition, and my dogs felt comfortable and reassured by her presence. Christine is highly recommended!

Amelie did amazing with our pups! She really catered to their personalities and provided the attention/love they needed. She had great communication with us the entire visit and included daily pictures. To top it off, she cleaned the kennels, mats, bowls and living area! We will be reaching out again for future visits!
