“Corinne and Christopher are great Rover sitters. They were very responsive to messages and most importantly took great care of my girl Busaba. I felt like she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.”
“Diana is amazing! I appreciated her communication and thoughtful after visit notes. She helped put my worries at ease. My pup is not used to being around other dogs and she has separation anxiety. Diana was wonderful and took great care of her. I know in time she’ll be able to play with the other pups. If you have a small dog and in need of a sitter, I highly recommend Diana and her husband Jim. Your pup will never be bored there and will always have other pups to play with. Plus their whole backyard is dog paradise! We are so grateful we found her.”
“While I was away, I received regular updates, photos, and messages that showed how happy and well cared my dogs were. It was obvious that my dogs felt comfortable and loved. When I returned, my dogs were relaxed, healthy, and clearly had been in great hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about animals, Ashley is the perfect choice. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We were happy with Ron's and his family’s care for our dog, Deedee. We received regular updates, which was helpful during our time away. His kids really liked Deedee and played & walked with her which was really positive experience for us. Overall, Deedee appeared well-looked after.”
“Amazing experience. I'm so glad we found David and Jeanette. Their family home is setup perfectly for pup sitting and everyone is properly experienced with dog care. Our three dogs (aged 2-13) loved their vacation with these Rovers.”
“Sarah was incredibly easy to coordinate with and very responsive throughout the entire process. My dog had such a great time and got along wonderfully with her pups. We’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“I had such a great experience with May! She was super friendly and really made me feel at ease while I was away. She sent tons of pictures and updates, which was awesome and made me feel like my dog was in great hands. It was clear that she really cares about animals. I’ll definitely be booking her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter!”
“Our dog, Betty, fell in love with Darylee and her family during her stay this weekend. It was a serendipitous last minute availability that worked out for everyone! We received lots of pictures and updates on how our dog was doing, and it was obvious she was getting lots of belly rubs and attention! We will definitely be booking with them in the near future!!! =)”
“I feel so fortunate to have found Annie and Ty! They took wonderful care of my dog Lucy while I was away for three days. I appreciated that they scheduled a meet and greet in advance so we could all make sure Lucy was a good fit for their family. Communication was excellent, and I very much appreciated the frequent updates and photos of Lucy having fun at their home. I absolutely would not hesitate to book with Annie and Ty again.”
“Doug and Marisol have taken care of our two dogs, Sugar and Millie, several times over the last year. Most recently, this month, they took care of them when we went away on vacation for two weeks. We had no worries at all while we were gone because we knew they were in loving, capable hands. Doug always sends pictures of the pups every day, showing them having fun on their walks. Both of our dogs love their stays with Doug and Marisol and are excited to see them. We can’t speak highly enough of Doug as our Dogsitter.”
“Kara was fantastic with our dog. I felt completely at ease knowing she was taking care of him while we were out of town. Lots of walks, attention, daily updates, photos, and homemade treats! I would definitely rebook with her again.”
“Gordon loves going to stay with Michelle, Steve and Daisy! Michelle is a pup expert and we feel really comfortable leaving Gordon in her care. Thank you!”
“Whitney always takes such good care of our Bentley. He’s been boarding with Whitney for 4 years now and we do not plan on going to anyone else to take care of our baby.”
“Matt and Kathryn are absolutely wonderful with our dogs. Never, in all our years of being pet owners, have we taken a vacation without our animals. But we just got back from a week abroad without any concerns for our pups because we knew they were in the very best care. Our dogs miss Matt and Kathryn and their dogs when they go too long between visits. It's so cute to see them get excited when we arrive. Can't recommend them enough.”
“Mayank and Shritu are truly wonderful pet caregivers! This was our first time using Rover, and we were a little nervous at first. We chose them based on their many positive reviews—and we’re so happy we did. They were amazing! They sent us daily photos and videos of Blue, which really put us at ease. Knowing he was having fun with other dogs and receiving so much love made all the difference. Thank you so much, Mayank and Shritu!”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who has had dogs my entire life. I currently share my home with two wonderful dogs who are truly part of my family. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I believe they all deserve patience, kindness, and lots of love. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, belly rubs, or simply relaxing with someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’ll treat your dog with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m dependable, responsible, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member!

They are allowed on furniture. I love snuggles and will take lots of pictures of your pets while you’re away.
“Taylor and Andrew spoiled Rafi! They gave her extra treats, made sure she ate, gave her run of their home and yard, took her for walks, and gave her affection. They were good about providing updates and sent photos. Rafi was with them for 2 wks., and when I picked her up I witnessed her seek attention and affection from them, she interacted well with their dogs, and had no initial interest in my return. I recommend them and will definitely use them again. I couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you!”

“Charlotte is awesome with our two cats! I think they miss her and want her to visit when we return. They also are their usual selves when get back…they have been anxious after other sitters. I think they get lots of play and pets with Charlotte, and that makes a huge difference.”
“Thank you so much for your kind care and for watching my Tuna. I know she is skittish but she so loved and trusted you. You gave so much time and attention to my little cat and I so appreciate it. Thank you!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Leigh was on time so kind and attentive to our beloved kitty and did all we asked of her and more. We were at ease after the first visit out of 4 over the weekend. Cako loved her too… the quickest she’s ever warmed up to anyone. We give 5 stars and highly recommend Leigh.”
“I can't leave a review fast enough! Mariela just completed a round of drop in visits for our cat Dragonfly, and she was so professional and thorough. Mariela dedicated her visits making sure Dragonfly took her medicine, was fed, loved, kept cool with the ac turned on during the daytime high heat, and her litterbox clean. Mariela's check ins and pictures were comforting, and it was excellent to know that there was someone responsible taking care of our precious family member while we were away.”

“Jeanine did an excellent job taking care of my cat Gus. I was impressed with her prompt responses from my initial contact, setting up the meet and greet, as well as during the week that she took care of Gus. It's evident that Jeanine is passionate about animals and is a great pet sitter!”

About: Was blessed to grow up with dogs and also care for friends' and other peoples' furry family members in our community. My family has a wonderful home and property made for your doggy vacations. They can enjoy both time inside our home as well as the beautiful dog play area outside which is fully gated with coyote rollers, trees for shading, a couple sheds (one w/ AC), and fully turfed. They'll enjoy this area for playing fetch, tug of war, running around, along with just having some relaxation in the safe outdoors. Also, if they like walks, they can enjoy some of our own family walks. Since we homeschool and work from home, we are ready to provide 24 hour care while maintaining your furry family member's normal everyday routine - from when they wake up, eat, play, potty and bedtime. We love to match your normal schedule to provide them with a fun and relaxing time during their vacation at our home. Our goal is to provide a Safe, Fun, and Relaxing time for your furry family member. Whether they'll want to relax in our home or play in our beautiful and safe dog play area outside, their safety and comfort is our priority. While your furry family member is with us, they'll be treated and cared for as one of our own family members. Your furry family member gets to live life with our family as we play, do homeschool, and work all from home. We love having them in the house with us and letting them enjoy basking in the sun on the connected patio in our fully enclosed backyard, or taking them up to our Private Dog Park (steps away from our home and backyard) for another place to run around, play fetch and tug-of-war, or enjoy some shade under a couple beautiful trees. Our family of four will each care for them throughout the day - from waking up in the morning to falling asleep in the evening. From the initial Meet & Greet, we learn about your dog - their routines, how they play, how they like to be petted and scratched, how much and how often they eat and need to go potty, what time they wake up and go to sleep, medications they may need, commands and tricks they know that you'd like us to work on with them, and anything else you feel will make their time with us more relaxing and fun. We then do our best to mirror what you shared with us, so they feel safe and secure, and receive the love, care, and attention that they may need.
“Annie and Ty have taken wonderful care of my three dogs. My dogs come home, tired and happy! They’ve shared many pics and taken them on walks which my pups love! Their home is a caring, wonderful place for my dogs to hang out when I can’t be with them.Thanks so much guys!!!”

Just message me 😊 I make sure the dog goes outside to use the bathroom . Make sure the food and water bowl is always fresh and full. Engage and play with your pet. Chill, lay down, and watch tv together. I absolutely love playing tug of war with dogs so make sure to pack that toy in their overnight bag LOL. If I were to come to your house I would let you know exactly when I enter and when I leave and give you updates on your pet .

Will definitely book again!”

Jack and Scout had a fabulous time getting all kinds of love and attention, the enclosed backyard was fantasticly huge, and our dogs were instantly comfortable with the people and the space. Darylee and I had great communication from start to finish. This was a great experience for our first time using a Rover!”

“Michelle and Steve treated our puppy like one of their own. Their home is a doggy's dream playground and their dog Daisy is a very sweet and friendly companion. Tapi loves going there and can't wait to go inside during drop off. We'll definitely use their services again.”
“I’m so grateful for Chris & Corinne and the awesome job they did taking care of my dog, Kieran. I needed some last-minute help and not only were they able to accommodate my short notice booking, but they also made time to squeeze in a meet-and-greet session so my dog could have a chance to acclimate a little. My dog can be a bit anxious and tends to warm to new people pretty slowly, but within minutes of meeting he seemed at ease in their home and even came up to them for pets. During the actual visit, I got a midday check-in, complete with a photo of my boy relaxing and looking perfectly comfortable and content without me. If I wasn’t in the process of moving, I would definitely use them as our regular sitters!”
“Oliver enjoyed his time at Doug and Marisol’s home doggie daycare this week! I felt relieved knowing my little guy was being well-cared for while I was at work. They provided Oliver with a cozy environment and his prescription food & treats.”

About: Animals have been part of my life since I was little — I grew up with six dogs and started caring for them on my own around age 10. It was never a chore. I genuinely loved it. Since then I’ve looked after pets for friends, family, and neighbors, and that same feeling has never gone away. I do drop-in visits, walks, and boarding. Your pet is welcome to stay in my home, where they’ll be treated like family — not just watched over, but truly loved. I give a lot of affection and I make sure every animal feels safe, seen, and cared for. I’m trained in pet first aid and CPR, can handle oral and injected medications, and have experience with senior animals and pets with special needs. Whatever your pet needs, I’ll show up for them. I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel hard. I just want you to feel at ease — and I want your animal to feel loved while you’re gone. I’m currently studying psychology online, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet real attention. I’m available for boarding on weekdays and weekends, and I offer drop-in visits and walks in the morning or afternoon — any day of the week. Your pet is welcome to stay in my home, where everything is calm, clean, and safe. I can also come to your home if that’s what’s most comfortable for your pet. Either way, I’m respectful of their routine and give them plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I always clean up after myself and make sure your animal feels at ease the whole time you’re away.
About: I was a kennel tech for many years & have worked with numerous breeds & ages of dogs. Even the most “dangerous” dogs were licking my face & trusting me. I pride myself on building trust & a sense of safety with each animal and their humans! ❤️ I have experience caring for dogs, cats, goats, horses, mules, and chickens! During the week (Mon-Thurs) I work part-time at night so i can dedicate my days to animal care and school! I am off Fridays & Saturdays and work Sunday mornings from 8am-12pm. I take every need your pet has very seriously. I make sure to abide by their schedules & exact home life routine/expectations so that everything is smooth & easy going for them with minimal stress on you and them! I make sure to gain their trust, as well as yours. I send lots of pics/videos & have such a huge heart for animals & their well being. Your comfort and trust is my top priority. Respecting your home, routine, and wishes are all my duty & I don’t take that lightly!
“My family and I highly recommend Alexis and Adam as dog walkers! They walked my two German Shepherd mixes early in the morning for 16 consecutive days for an hour each while we were on vacation. Always on time, always submitting report cards with photos and the route they walked. On top of that, my dogs, who are rescues with shyness or aggression toward strangers AND severe dog reactivity on walks, LOVED Lex and Adam! As a professional dog trainer and walker myself, I’m extremely careful with people who interact with my dogs, and Lex and Adam exceeded my expectations! It’s clear to me that they take caring for their clients’ dogs seriously and both are extremely nice and personable. Thank you Lex and Adam!!”
About: Hi! I am Sara! Dog mom, pastry baker, and animal lover. I have a very small pupper of my own. I am most comfortable with the very small but mighty protectors, who may need some extra love and attention, or maybe some extra potty breaks. I am also experienced with the bigger puppers as well, (Tank, 100 lb Saint Bernard). I like to think of all dogs all puppers, no matter their age or size. Every dog is still the young happy loving pupper that they once were that still needs all the love and attention. Can't wait to meet all the new and loving puppers hopefully soon! Currently working from home, making sweet pastries and custom cakes. I have a lot of extra time in between orders and would love to get out and enjoy the sun and beautiful day with your wonderful dogs. I can care for small and medium size puppers here in my home. I have plenty of beds and step stools for our mighty small puppers. I am also very comfortable with larger dogs as well, but my place is a little small so I am available for house calls/sitting and always available to take a our lovely dogs out for a much needed walk and some extra exercise.

“Corinne and Christopher are great Rover sitters. They were very responsive to messages and most importantly took great care of my girl Busaba. I felt like she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.”
“While I was away, I received regular updates, photos, and messages that showed how happy and well cared my dogs were. It was obvious that my dogs felt comfortable and loved. When I returned, my dogs were relaxed, healthy, and clearly had been in great hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about animals, Ashley is the perfect choice. I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We were happy with Ron's and his family’s care for our dog, Deedee. We received regular updates, which was helpful during our time away. His kids really liked Deedee and played & walked with her which was really positive experience for us. Overall, Deedee appeared well-looked after.”
“Amazing experience. I'm so glad we found David and Jeanette. Their family home is setup perfectly for pup sitting and everyone is properly experienced with dog care. Our three dogs (aged 2-13) loved their vacation with these Rovers.”
“Sarah was incredibly easy to coordinate with and very responsive throughout the entire process. My dog had such a great time and got along wonderfully with her pups. We’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Our dog, Betty, fell in love with Darylee and her family during her stay this weekend. It was a serendipitous last minute availability that worked out for everyone! We received lots of pictures and updates on how our dog was doing, and it was obvious she was getting lots of belly rubs and attention! We will definitely be booking with them in the near future!!! =)”
“Gordon loves going to stay with Michelle, Steve and Daisy! Michelle is a pup expert and we feel really comfortable leaving Gordon in her care. Thank you!”
“Matt and Kathryn are absolutely wonderful with our dogs. Never, in all our years of being pet owners, have we taken a vacation without our animals. But we just got back from a week abroad without any concerns for our pups because we knew they were in the very best care. Our dogs miss Matt and Kathryn and their dogs when they go too long between visits. It's so cute to see them get excited when we arrive. Can't recommend them enough.”
“Mayank and Shritu are truly wonderful pet caregivers! This was our first time using Rover, and we were a little nervous at first. We chose them based on their many positive reviews—and we’re so happy we did. They were amazing! They sent us daily photos and videos of Blue, which really put us at ease. Knowing he was having fun with other dogs and receiving so much love made all the difference. Thank you so much, Mayank and Shritu!”
“Taylor and Andrew spoiled Rafi! They gave her extra treats, made sure she ate, gave her run of their home and yard, took her for walks, and gave her affection. They were good about providing updates and sent photos. Rafi was with them for 2 wks., and when I picked her up I witnessed her seek attention and affection from them, she interacted well with their dogs, and had no initial interest in my return. I recommend them and will definitely use them again. I couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you!”
“Gelare & Sama were incredible cat sitters! They were very attentive to our cat’s needs & showed him lots of love. We received photos & videos of him frequently, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. They were both very considerate, & helped us bring in & out all of the kitty products we packed. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Gelare again for our kitty! ☺️”
“I am so thankful that I came across Tatyanah and Everardo here. My dog needs to have his bladder manually expressed following a spinal stroke three years ago. They agreed to learn, and they successfully did it for a long trip for me (18 days!) Tristen loves to walk and got daily walks with lots of new friends. He was healthy when I got him back. I got lots of pictures and updates. He also made new dog friends! I wasn’t worried at all during my trip, and it was such a relief to be able to travel and not worry about my dog. Thank you so much!”
“Martin and Crystal took great care of our boy Blu! We took a trip for over a week during the holidays and Martin and Crystal were easy to work with and happy to take our fur baby. They have a great setup for dogs and they provide a homely and comfortable atmosphere. Their dogs were also great playmates. I appreciated that they provided updates throughout the week. Blu came home happy and exhausted! I am looking forward to booking with them again and I know Blu is too!!”
“Upon meeting Dahui, I could already tell that she would be great with my dog! She's very friendly and caring with pets. I will certainly be rebooking with her again in the future (:”
“Very happy with our experience. Our dog had a great time with Ryan's family. Ryan was easy to communicate with and he was very accommodating when our travel plans changed unexpectedly at the last minute and we had to extend the boarding for a few days.”
“We’ve used Jason several times and he always does a great job with our boy Eli. He sends updates frequently and is always flexible if we need to shift times based on our travels. We know Eli is well taken care of while we are away. Definitely recommend Jason!”
“Our family is incredibly grateful for Julia's care of Theo and 8Ball during our family trip. Now that they're back home, both are active, healthy, and doing well. Their past few days have been comfortable and reassuring.”
