“As soon as we arrived to the house I had such a beautiful welcoming from the family! My girl rushed right inside. Rochelle was not only able to accept my booking last minute but she stayed in contact with me and gave me updates with pictures. I will definitely be booking her in the future!”
“Celia is a true dog lover. She took care of my sweet Chihuahua named Joy with love and care. It felt like I’m sending my baby to vacation spa. Celia communicate with me every day, twice a day and sent me pictures to reassure me of the well-being of my joy. I’m very happy and grateful to find such a great dog sitter. I recommend Celia with all my heart she really gave me a piece of mind while I was away.”
“Tyler has been excellent at communicating and watching over everything. I am very excited and definitely plan to rebook them. Highly recommend his efforts; he's good with dogs all around. Followed every instruction that was given. Open and ask if I needed anything else afterwards and even left all a treat to take home I highly recommend him.”
“Nathan and family were great! Very communicative and our dog seemed right at home! Which is huge because she has high anxiety but she loved it with Nathan and crew. Will definitely be rebooking soon.”
“This was our second time having our dog, Dior, cared for, and once again the service was excellent! We had complete peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Dior was happy, well cared for, and received lots of love and attention. We truly appreciate the reliability, great communication, and wonderful care. We will definitely book again. Highly recommend!”
“my dog had a amazing experience!! all the dogs were so playful and friendly with him and he fit right in. i’m so happy i chose you to watch my dog i will definitely have vader come back when i go on vacation again!”
“Very pleased. Our dog has never been with anyone except family, Allison had him for 6 nights and when we picked him up he was happy to see us but still said goodbye to her family. We are extremely happy and plan on using her services again.”
“Leo had a great time with Flor! He came home exhausted from all the playing he did with her dogs. Appreciate that she sent regular pictures and videos of him having fun. We will certainly use her in the future.”
“Lisa was very responsive and helpful! I had to board my cat due to some unexpected plans and messaged her late in the evening asking for her availability; she responded right away and was able to accommodate my request. Her cat room comes with water bowls, litter, multi-level cages, room to run around, and cat trees.”
“Stephanie and her family took exceptionally good care of my 19 month old goldendoodle. I hope they will let him stay again. Thank you for everything! Love Noa and Anthony.”
“I chose Rotoria to take care of Coco the second time around because I know my pet is comfortable already being around with Rotoria and her family. They are really friendly and makes you feel welcome. Rotoria sent me pictures of Coco and updated me on a regular basis. Coco feels at home with them, not to mention the bonding moments she enjoys with their pet, Diamond. Thanks, Rotoria! You are awesome!”
“I cannot recommend Steven enough! My dog is quite skittish with strangers and has a very specific routine at home, so I was nervous about boarding. Steven was incredibly understanding and listened to all my concerns, but what impressed me most was how he prioritized reading her body language over just following my instructions blindly. He understood that she might behave differently in a new environment and adapted brilliantly. Despite the challenges of a different household dynamic—managing a 'grazer' around his own dog and mirroring our busy family routine—he made her feel right at home. By the first night, she was eating, playing, and even sleeping in her crate! If you want a sitter who truly understands dog psychology and provides personalized care, Steven is the one.”
About: Hello my name is Shondra and I absolutely love dogs. I am retired so your pup will not be left alone. I have always had dogs my whole life. I have trained bird dogs (German short haired pointer) to hunt which I no longer do but I would love to take care of your pup as if it were my own. I walk my pup everyday so if your pup likes walks he or she can go with us. My house is clean so your pup will not be eating anything that will hurt him or her. I will send you pictures everyday of our activities. I have saved my dog Kiddy (who has now passed away at 19yrs old) from near death when she was 16yrs old. She had an infected tooth which got into her blood and caused her to almost die. the doctor gave her antibiotics but she wasn't eating or drinking for days. I put in a blender chicken and pedialyte, I then poured it into a feeding syringe and carefully put it in her mouth, I did this for 2 days and she came back to life. She got her tooth pulled as soon as she was better. I wanted to tell my story so you know that I will do whatever it takes to care for your pup. Our fur babies are family❤️❤️🙏 I am retired and home to take care of your pup. I do have one little dog and 2 cats. My pup is on an eating schedule and walking schedule so if your pup is on any schedule I will accommodate. My dogs and cats are my family members, your dogs and cats will be my extended family members. Making your fur babies comfortable will be my main priority. I have a fenced yard and I live close to a park for your fur babies daily exercise. I have an unfenced pool but I’m very careful about the dogs getting too close. I know how to give medication if your pup has a prescription. I will feed your fur baby at anytime you desire. I do prefer small to medium size dogs, if your fur baby likes to be on the couch I'm ok with that. I can provide a crate if your pup likes sleeping in one or if you prefer to bring your own that's ok as well. All animals have to be potty trained. I watch a friend's fur baby who uses a dog litter box so if you need to bring one I'm ok with that. I will love your pup as I love my own so he or she will aways feel comfortable in my house. I boil chicken for dog treats so if your pup likes treats he or she will love this.
“Tracey, I’m back from LA and just wanted to thank you so so much for watching Mila! Paul said she had a good time and she will definitely be returning. I am so so grateful for you and all you did to accommodate watching Mila. Have a blessed day 😊”
“Mk was amazing! My dog had a great time during the stay, got plenty of attention and playtime. Mk was super attentive, friendly, and made sure my puppy was comfortable and happy. I also got updates throughout the day which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend for anyone needing reliable and loving care for their furry friend!”
“Always grateful for your love and care to Max.I love the updates and photos you send everyday.Kristine is very professional,always the best experience.Thank you for taking good care of Max.”

About: My name is Jaden and I am 23! I’ve never had a time in my life when I didn’t have a pet, specifically a dog, until now. My heart is still broken from the passing of my dog and I think now would be a great time for me to get on rover as a sitter! I’m great with all animals and will make sure they’re fed, walked, played with, bathed if needed, and have a cozy place to sleep. I have had senior dogs, dogs that require a med schedule and regimen, puppies who have full energy and dogs with other health issues. I promise your animals will be in great hands and a lovely home with a spacious yard (boarding). I can accommodate any special requests, do sleepovers, drop ins or anything else you may need. I am currently in nursing school. I will have clinicals once a semester starting next year, but until then I have more than enough time to pet sit! I am not working outside of Rover and school. I will care for your pets however you request! Every dog I have had has mainly been an indoor dog. We do have a dog door to go outside freely for the bathroom and sunbathing. We also have a pool but it is gated for the safety of my previous pets and your pets! I live in a great neighborhood near a lot of parks for walks as well. I will follow whatever rules you have set for training purposes, diet purposes, and preferences. I always treat animals with love and will give them lots and lots of attention while they’re in my care.

During this meeting, she showed us her home and yard, where the dogs typically relax. Honey quickly settled in and appeared quite comfortable. Hortensia provided excellent care for Honey and followed all the instructions we provided. We will most certainly reach out to her again for future pet care needs for Honey. Thank you Hortensia!”

“I cannot recommend Steven enough! My dog is quite skittish with strangers and has a very specific routine at home, so I was nervous about boarding. Steven was incredibly understanding and listened to all my concerns, but what impressed me most was how he prioritized reading her body language over just following my instructions blindly. He understood that she might behave differently in a new environment and adapted brilliantly. Despite the challenges of a different household dynamic—managing a 'grazer' around his own dog and mirroring our busy family routine—he made her feel right at home. By the first night, she was eating, playing, and even sleeping in her crate! If you want a sitter who truly understands dog psychology and provides personalized care, Steven is the one.”
“Tracey, I’m back from LA and just wanted to thank you so so much for watching Mila! Paul said she had a good time and she will definitely be returning. I am so so grateful for you and all you did to accommodate watching Mila. Have a blessed day 😊”
“Mk was amazing! My dog had a great time during the stay, got plenty of attention and playtime. Mk was super attentive, friendly, and made sure my puppy was comfortable and happy. I also got updates throughout the day which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend for anyone needing reliable and loving care for their furry friend!”
“Dipinthi is a great and trustworthy caretaker for your pup! She had a very open line of communication, she sent daily pictures and updates, was easy to book with, very prompt in all her responses and was really sweet and caring towards our dog Cole! I highly recommend her services, I definitely will be returning customer if I'm in the area!”
“Weilin was beyond amazing with watching my fur babies for 5 nights! She put all my worries and concerns at ease, always sending updates, great communication, she really cares about the animals she looks after. I’m so grateful to have found someone like her! Will definitely be booking all future doggy day care needs with this awesome lady! No more kennel ever again!”
“Stella and her family took great care of my puppy during his extended stay. He became very close with her family, made friends with her dogs, and took many leisurely walks in her backyard. He had a great time and seems like he even became more easygoing and outgoing after we came home. I would highly recommend her!!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for family and friends for as long as I can remember. Looking after pets has always been something I genuinely enjoy! Whether it’s going for walks, feeding, bath time, playtime, or simply giving them lots of love and attention, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I work full-time from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m also available on weekends, which allows for even more quality time, walks, play, and cuddles. I’ll do my best to keep your pet on their normal routine so they feel as relaxed as possible. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. I keep a close eye on every pet in my care to make sure they feel safe, secure, and well loved while you’re away. I pay attention to each pet’s unique personality and body language so I can provide the care they need and avoid anything that might cause unnecessary stress. My apartment community also has a fully fenced dog park, giving dogs a safe place to run, play, and burn off energy during their stay. Whether we’re enjoying playtime, going for walks, or relaxing with plenty of cuddles, I’ll make sure your furry family member feels right at home and has a fun, positive experience.
“I am an overprotective dog mom and it takes a lot for me to trust anyone with my babies, I took a chance based upon their amazing profile & reviews and Im so glad I did! Cheridyn & Gil were so kind and easy to work with. They took the time to chat with us at drop off and sent us so many photos & videos of our pups! I'm so happy I was able to have peace of mind knowing my dogs were having a blast while we were away on our vacation. We will definitely book with them again in the near future!”
“Lauren and her family looked after Scampi as their own. He was relaxed and seemed too relaxed to come home. He was not in a hurry! I will recommend Lauren and with past experiences I will give her A+! Thanks again Lauren.”
