Our immense gratitude goes out to Mika and her entire family for hosting with such love and care.”

“Allison was wonderful! Franklin absolutely loved his stay with her and enjoyed playing with Moose. We were so happy to have constant updates and Franklin came back tired and happy.”

It was clear he was getting lots of love, attention, and playtime—which made being away so much easier. We could tell he felt right at home with her. Can’t recommend Temi enough—she’s a total gem and we’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Thavery was really great taking care of our Teddy over the weekend. We did a meet and greet to ensure our dogs were good with each other and to also meet with Thavery as well. She was understanding of our separation anxiety with our 3rd baby, and she made us feel at ease knowing she would take good care of our Teddy. Since she is a dog owner as well, she knows how much love we give and receive from our fur babies, and how they really are our family. She kept us updated several times per day with pictures and videos, and that was wonderful to see. I would recommend Thavery for sure for anyone who is looking for a dog sitter and we will use her next time as well. Thank you again Thavery!”
“Couldn’t have asked for better care—Cie kept our pup happy, safe, and pampered. Total pro, super responsive, sent us many pictures showing him having a ball. Cie is the only dog sitter we will use.”
“Xiaoying was amazing with Kulfi. She sent detailed daily updates about what she ate, her litter schedule, and even her mood, which gave us so much peace of mind. On the first day when Kulfi seemed a little stressed, Xiaoying spent extra time sitting with her to help her settle in. We really appreciated that. She checked on her and kept her company. The photos and videos every day were such a nice touch and it was clear Kulfi was getting real care and attention. We would absolutely book with Xiaoying again and highly recommend her.”
“My wife and I booked with Banafshe for a long weekend trip, after our go-to dog sitter was unavailable. We are happy we did. Before the sit, Banafshe was courteous and timely in replying to our handful of messages with questions. She was gracious enough to allow us to bring Huxley over for a quick meetup with her and her lovely family), before the scheduled stay. Banafshe followed up with us the day of to confirm what time we would be dropping Huxley off. Unexpectedly, our pup had a tooth pulled prior to the boarding, and Banafshe was very helpful in ensuring Huxley received his medication (in his food). Throughout the time of the boarding she provided thoughtful updates and photos and was very responsive. She checked in with us to confirm when we would be picking up Huxley and made sure his items we left with her, were in his bag. 10/10. We would trust her and her family with our furbaby again and I highly recommend. 🥰”

Brittany came to meet my 2 and took on the challenge of Juby. She sent pictures every visit, played with them, gave the best updates on what was going on, she even took them on a virtual walk since I wasn’t having them go out. She went above and beyond for me and even had my aggressive booger happy! I’m so happy I found Brittany and so are Juby and Dezi! She will be my go to as long as she will have us!”

About: I've been caring for dogs for as long as I can remember. Since I was little, my mom would dog sit in our home, and while she was at work, I was the one helping take care of the dogs day-to-day. I would feed them, walk them, clean up after them, and make sure they always felt comfortable and loved. Because of this, I've spent years around dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I connect very well with all animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I've also lived with up to four dogs at once for long periods of time, so I'm very comfortable managing multiple pets and keeping them happy, active, and safe. I am currently a college student on summer break and have a very flexible schedule. I have open availability and can help with pet care from early mornings to late evenings depending on your needs. In my free time, I love taking my own dogs on walks, playing outside with them, and make sure they stay active. I am reliable, responsive, and able to accommodate a variety of schedules, whether your pet needs a quick walk, daytime care, or extra attention while you're away. Creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets is very important to me. I always make sure dogs feel cared for and well supervised while in my care. Having grown up around multiple dogs and helping care for them daily, I'm familiar with reading dog behavior and keeping routines consistent, making sure pets get the attention they need. I am also respectful of each owner's instructions and routines so pets can feel as comfortable as possible.
“Kiryl, Thank you so much for caring for my pal Pearl, sending photos, feeding and sitting with her. Gave me such peace and calm knowing you showed up as scheduled. I felt so much comfort knowing you are in the complex too.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my reliability, attention to detail, and genuine love for animals. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality, routine, and needs so they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I also have experience caring for pets at different life stages. I’m patient and consistent when working with young pets, helping reinforce basic training, routines, and positive behaviors. For senior pets, I understand the importance of a slower pace, gentle care, and staying attentive to medications, mobility needs, and comfort. In addition, I pride myself on strong communication with pet owners. I provide regular updates, photos, and quick responses so owners can feel confident their pets are well cared for. My goal is not just to watch pets, but to give them the same level of care, attention, and affection they receive from their families.
“Cie did an amazing job with our two cats and chinchilla. She even bought a toothbrush to give our chinchilla scratches, which he absolutely loved! She was very communicative and let us know everything that was going on with the animals in the house. I can highly recommend her to take amazing care of any pet.”
About: I have 10 years of experience in dog care. I once had three dogs at home at the same time and allowed them to sleep on the bed. I would walk the dog every day and feed it three times a day, morning, noon and night. After meals, I would also prepare snacks for it. I will take very good care of your dog and report its condition to the owner at any time. If a bath is needed, I can also help with that. As I'm a part-time worker, I'm at home almost four to five days a week. I will spend time with your dog every day and give him plenty of playtime. I will also make sure he is fed and hydrated on time. Since I have a 7-month-old dog at home, your pet won't feel lonely. If you want to know about his current situation, I will take pictures and report to you. Since I live in an apartment, the privacy is very good. When I take my dog for a walk, I usually go downstairs with it to play for about half an hour to an hour. Once a week, I also take my dog to the park to play together. Whether it's playing or going downstairs, I will spray the dog with insect repellent spray, so there's no need to worry about bugs. After the dog comes back from the walk, I will wipe its body and give it enough water. If your dog needs any special care, I will strictly follow it and report it to you in time.

“Kristina was amazing, so patient and warm with my dog! it was our first time using Rover and she was so great at communicating! We are going on vacation soon and planing on leaving her again with Kristina and her family for a few weeks.”
About: I used to work at an animal hospital and have attended formal training on pet care. I’ve been a pet lover all my life. Caring for animals is my passion! I work from home full-time so I have constant presence around the pets I babysit. My 7yo female (spayed) Calico stays with me and loves having access to me all day, and if you have a social pet, then I’m here for them too! I know which stuff are bad for pets so you’re guaranteed a safe stay with us. I am home all day so there will be constant care and guidance
“Echo and Rita are the kindest and most conscientious pet sitters I have ever had. Their dedication goes far beyond what you can imagine. Their devotion toward my Maltese left me with feeling that I could entrust a newborn baby with them. They were, honestly, that good. Your precious pet is in capable & loving hands with Echo. Thank you sooooo much!”
“Dani was super sweet, our sitter had backed out last minute and we were scrambling to find a replacement. I contacted her and she responded to messgae super fast. My boy apparently had the time of his life because as soon as he got into the car he passed out lol. I would definitely use Dani again!”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for dogs, including my own pup of 14 years. Caring for a dog through every stage of life—from puppyhood to senior care—has taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to adapt to each dog’s unique needs. I also provide regular updates and plenty of love to help both pets and owners feel at ease. I’m currently home for the summer before starting dental school, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day. This means I can provide consistent attention, walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, ensuring pets receive the care and supervision they need while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide plenty of exercise, playtime, affection, fresh water, meals on schedule, and close attention to their individual needs while keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages.
“Repeat customer here. I came back to Junping because she really cares for pets like it’s her own. She’s very caring and now my dog gets excited when he knows he’s going to see her. Her kids are also very loving and caring towards JB. Makes him feel like he’s at home!”
“Kaylee took really great care of Toby yesterday. From her pictures, he seemed very relaxed, happy and comfortable with Kaylee n her dog. I would definitely recommend Kaylee.”
“Once again Winston had a blast staying with Temi! Temi came through for us when we were looking for a sitter extremely last minute and as always was extremely friendly and accommodating. Winston can’t wait to see her again!”
About: My dog Mr.Paisley is 20 years old & Buttercup is 3. I've been blessed to have paisley since he was just a fresh puppy and I was still just a kid. We grew up together & through that he has taught me lessons I will carry for rest of my life, like unconditional love, compassion, joy for the present moment & so much more. Buttercup I got as a puppy as well & she instantly brought so much life into our home. I trained her myself to follow commands like stay, lay sit, sit on her butt with paws up, potty training and so much more cool stuff we practice everyday. There's a lot of love between paisley & buttercup, despite the age difference its actual been complimentary to each of them and has made a nice balance in the environment we cultivated as a pack together with regular activities, playtime, rest & relaxing all part of our daily routines. I am currently in college taking fully online courses & I also have an audio production company that I run completely remote from my home online, audio is also what I am in school for. So between these as my primary obligations with an occasional audio engineering gig I have plenty of time to give all the love, walks and attention any dog would need. It's mutually beneficial for me and the dogs because I love to be active and they simply give me joy. I have my home accommodated for dogs to live their best life. I have a fenced backyard with a long 30ft long dog run with trees and dirt on the side of my home, then the actual backyard has sun most of the daytime with places for them to lounge and shaded spots to be in the fresh air, there's also grass for them to do business and a small puppy pool for the dogs who like to splash around a bit and play. The inside of my home is big and open with the upstairs and front office already secure with puppy gates installed so they can wander safely and to their hearts content. I have big low to the floor comfy couches the dogs are totally allowed to be on and a special area in my living room that's 10x10 feet that I dedicated as a play pen area with padded floors under and cozy washable potty matts so the dogs feel like they have their own personal space they can get in & out of & go to whenever they want. Mr.Paisley my 20 year old dog loves it. Because he's older now I have learned how to manage special diets and ive also gained a deep instinct to notice things that indicate to me to give extra love and attention, also to handle serious situations calmly and correctly. I have a sliding screen door that I installed a dog door on so the dogs have access to outside all day anytime they want. I go on about 8 walks a day, different lengths & different speeds depending on the dog and I love it. This is a happy, healthy home your dog will love to be apart of.
“Wen is a fantastic sitter! Our dog Bernie is elderly and has health issues, so we were concerned about finding a sitter who was able to handle his needs. Wen was comforting and reassuring from the moment we started messaging about the booking. She has done such a wonderful job of looking after our dog Bernard, sending messages and photos throughout the day. Absolutely recommend her services!!”

About: I grew up with a dog and learned how to care for and raise him from a young age. He lived a long life and passed away in my arms at 17, which taught me how deeply pets become part of the family. Later, when I became a parent myself, we brought two dogs into our home right away. One of them had a congenital condition, and for 10 years we cared for him very attentively, making sure he lived a happy and comfortable life. This gave me strong experience not only in daily care, but also in supporting dogs with medical needs. Now our second dog has lost his companion, and I came to Rover to be helpful to other families and their pets. Your dog will not feel lonely — he will have company, care, and a warm, loving environment. I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog as part of the family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I stay home most of the day. I structure my day around the dogs — regular walks, feeding, playtime, and rest. It’s very important to me to keep a consistent routine and give each dog enough attention, especially during moments when they may miss their owners. We go on daily walks in safe and pleasant areas nearby. There is also a dog park where your dog can play off-leash if you are comfortable with that, as well as many walking trails for longer, relaxed walks. I always adjust the activity level to your dog’s needs and personality. I also provide regular updates with photos and videos so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. We live in a bright, spacious apartment where your dog will feel comfortable and safe. I accept one dog at a time, or two dogs from the same family, so each pet can receive plenty of attention and care. My child is 16 years old and has a great understanding of how to interact with animals respectfully and calmly. You can leave all your instructions, preferences, and schedules — I will follow them carefully to make sure your dog feels at home and stays in their usual routine.
“very sweet and welcoming. they were bilingual and very understanding regarding pick up time. we needed a last minute booking that same day and they provided quick responses and great pricing. would definitely recommend.”
“Reinaldo is awesome! He is very prompt at responding to messages. This was our first time leaving our puppy in someone else's care, and we weren't sure how she would react to new dogs and a young child, as she hadn't yet had much exposure to these things. Reinaldo reassured us it would be fine, and sure enough, it was! Even though we just did a short day care, he sent us some update photos and a video, which we really appreciated. We have now found someone who we can trust and can confidently handle our puppy. We are so glad we won't have to worry about boarding our pup while we are away, as we know she will be in Reinaldo's wonderful care.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, including daily walks, feeding schedules, medication if needed, and companionship. I am very attentive to each pet’s routine and personality and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and well-being. I work remotely, which allows me to be home most of the day and easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. This means I can provide consistent attention, timely feedings, check-ins, and companionship throughout the day. Because I work from home, I am able to closely monitor pets and ensure they are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and provide calm, attentive care.
“Nicole and Aaron were so beyond amazing in taking care of my dog, Otis for last minute daycare needs! They were very responsive and helpful in ensuring Otis had everything he needed to have a good day. My dog has some separation anxiety and I immediately felt at ease when they welcomed Otis into their home with open arms to make him more comfortable. It was also great to have picture and video updates to see that he was having such a good time with Nicole and her family! Thank you so much!!”
“Olga was very attentive and caring, especially with last minute needs. She takes instructions well kiba seemed really happy. She also kept me up to date with everything and sent a lot of photos”

About: I've taken care of my friends' dogs for years and adopted my own puppy 3 years ago! I've learned a lot about dog training the past few years, including loose leash walking, clicker training, working on reactivity, recall training, and getting through the puppy and teenage phase! I am familiar with positive reinforcement training and balanced training and can help keep up any training you have been working on with your dog while I take care of them! I'm familiar with various collars - regular, prong, slip, gentle leaders, and harnesses. I'm currently taking a work hiatus from being a pharmacist! So I have flexible scheduling during the day & evenings to help take care of your pup! I'm typically at the ceramics studio on Fridays, but if you let me know 2 weeks in advance of the Friday you need me, I can make arrangements. I am here to help your pets feel as safe and happy as they can while you're away. Just let me know their normal routine (no matter how detailed) and I'm happy to keep it the same for them! I can help administer medications if needed, and can put together multi-step meals with toppers as well!

“i could not be happier with greta's care for my pup. not only did i reach out to her last minute, to which she responded so graciously, she was so kind, warm, conscientious, and communicative. i received a steady stream of photos, videos, and updates while i was away, she left notes when necessary, and even made sure to check that i arrived home safely in time for my pet's next walk. i wasn't able to meet greta in advance (my fault, not hers!) but she took my instructions in stride and did such a wonderful job. i will 1000% request her services the next time i travel, and i highly recommend her skills to anyone who needs a caretaker for their pet.”

I’m doing this in part because I enjoy caring for animals, and also to help cover some recent vet costs! Your Pet’s Safety Is My Priority! I focus on pet safety and comfort above all else. I am able to tailor my service according to the needs of you and your pet. Your Privacy: I understand the need for privacy and care when it comes to your home. I have no issue with remaining in designated areas or with cameras around common spaces. I will accommodate your comfort.

“Lauren was great! I really appreciated how she worked with Ottie and all his little quirks. He take a minute to warm up, but I could tell he really like Lauren. Will be using her for all my future dog walking needs!”
About: I cared for my two Chihuahuas for over 17 years, from when they were babies to their senior years. In 2022, we said goodbye and sent them to Rainbow Bridge. Since then, I have been a dog sitter for my friends, caring for their babies with the same love and dedication, while prioritizing safety and careful supervision at all times. I also completed a Veterinary Assistant program, which helps me better understand senior care and medication support. To ensure a calm and comfortable environment, I only care for one dog at a time unless they are from the same household. I stay home full time and try to minimize alone time as much as possible. I understand that being away from family can feel stressful for some dogs, and I focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment where they feel safe and loved. I stay with dogs overnight so they don't feel alone. I also provide regular updates with photos and videos so you can feel reassured while you are away. We live in a house with a patio in a quiet neighborhood. I take them for walks around the neighborhood several times a day and always make sure they are wearing secure leashes. Our home environment is calm and structured to help dogs feel safe and comfortable. My husband and two teenage sons also love dogs and understand the importance of being gentle and respectful with them.
About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is that I combine responsibility with genuine attentiveness to each dog’s individual personality and needs. I don’t just “watch” dogs — I actively engage with them to make sure they feel safe, stimulated, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. With puppies, I pay great attention to how they feel and I’m very patient at caring for them. With senior dogs, I’m patient and attentive to mobility needs, medication schedules, slower walking pace, and comfort routines. I pay close attention to subtle behavior changes that may indicate discomfort. I’m also detail-oriented when it comes to feeding instructions, allergies, and household rules. Clean water, safe environments, and secure walks are always my priority. I provide regular updates with photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, affection, and respect for their unique temperament. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I’m currently home most of the time. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, regular walks, and plenty of interaction throughout the day instead of leaving dogs alone for long periods. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can adapt to each dog’s needs — whether that means early morning walks, midday play sessions, feeding at specific times, or sticking closely to an established routine. Being home also allows me to monitor behavior closely and respond quickly if anything seems off. Because pet care would be a dedicated part of my day, I’m able to give dogs my full attention, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for rather than just accommodated. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. In my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment. I remove potential hazards, keep doors and gates secured, and ensure all food and small objects are out of reach. Dogs have a comfortable resting area, constant access to fresh water, and structured playtime. I supervise interactions at all times and never leave pets unattended in unsafe situations. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully — including feeding schedules, medication, walking routes, house rules, and preferred routines. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes to ensure security. I’m attentive to behavior changes and will immediately communicate any concerns. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured. I understand that trust is everything when someone leaves their pet in another person’s care. I treat every home respectfully and every pet as if they were my own — with patience, attentiveness, and responsibility.
“Summer was amazing! Summer, walked my dog for an hour each day over the course of a week, and I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention provided. Summer was communicative, and treated my dog with genuine kindness. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos—great peace of mind while I was on vacation. Highly recommend and would absolutely book again!”
“Very kind and caring walkers. Ricky had no issues with them, so they must be good people. Mom said Ricky was super happy for an hour after the walk then just slept for the rest of the night- perfect. Thanks”
About: I’ve loved being around animals since I was a kid, especially cats. I grew up with my grandmother’s cat and learned early on how to be patient and attentive to their needs. I’ve also been around dogs through family members, including breeds like Huskies, so I understand different energy levels and personalities. More recently, I cared for my neighbor’s Ragdoll cat for a full summer, making sure they were well fed, engaged, and comfortable every day. I treat every pet with the same care and attention as if they were my own. *I would love to share photos and messages to keep the owners updated if required Currently I’m working part-time, so I’ll be available most of the time at both day and night times over the weekdays and weekends. Pets’ safety is always my priority. I live in a gated apartment that has two dog parks. There are also plenty of dog waste bag stations and trash cans around the apartment. I’m a very active person and go to the gym four times a week for strength training. I also love hiking and walking, so I genuinely enjoy taking dogs out for walks.

Can’t recommend Temi enough—she’s a total gem and we’ll definitely be booking with her again.”
“My wife and I booked with Banafshe for a long weekend trip, after our go-to dog sitter was unavailable. We are happy we did. Before the sit, Banafshe was courteous and timely in replying to our handful of messages with questions. She was gracious enough to allow us to bring Huxley over for a quick meetup with her and her lovely family), before the scheduled stay. Banafshe followed up with us the day of to confirm what time we would be dropping Huxley off. Unexpectedly, our pup had a tooth pulled prior to the boarding, and Banafshe was very helpful in ensuring Huxley received his medication (in his food). Throughout the time of the boarding she provided thoughtful updates and photos and was very responsive. She checked in with us to confirm when we would be picking up Huxley and made sure his items we left with her, were in his bag. 10/10. We would trust her and her family with our furbaby again and I highly recommend. 🥰”
