“We were so pleased that we found Vadym for our Bella. Vadym and his family were very good with Bella and treated her like their own. They have a nice home with a good size backyard, and Vadym would play ball with Bella for break time. We got photos and videos from Vadym every day. I will definitely use Vadym again next time. Will also recommends his service to others too.”
“Erica did an amazing job with our dog. She made sure Cici got attention and the best of care to include administering medication as needed. She sent pictures throughout the day and was excellent at communicating. I felt like our fur baby was in great hands.”
“LOVE LOVE LOVE Alicia and Christian and so does our Milo. This is the 3rd time we leave Milo with them because they are simply amazing, caring, communicative, all the great qualities of a dog sitter! Don’t even look any further, they are the right family for the care of your little one 💕”
“We had a great experience with Sarah! She was reliable, communicated clearly, and took wonderful care of Zoey and Milo. We got regular updates and came home to happy pups. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Lori is a natural caretaker. She provided so much love and attention to Zara, my standard poodle. I could see how much fun Zara was having through the photogenic pictures Lori sent each day. Lori's 1-acre of land is such a plus for the dogs to run and play. At the end of the stay, Zara and Lori were both sad to part. That speaks volumes about the wonderful level of care your pet will receive while staying with Lori. Book her now!”
“Kathryn and Matt were amazing. They have 2 other dogs that Gumbo was able to play with and the property was safe for him to have a good time.. They gave regular updates on how he was doing, walked him around the neighborhood and even snuggled him on the couch when he sat next to them. They were excellent caretakers.”
“Anasteysha and her family were excellent! Our dog Cookie really enjoyed her stay and was able to play with other dogs. Anasteysha was very responsive and sent many pictures/videos while we were away. We will use their services again!”
“Pepper had so much fun. This sitter updated me constantly and sent me pictures throughout the days. My dog had so much fun and felt so comfortable with this sitter. I didn’t have to worry about the safety or wellbeing of my pepper with Gabi. Gabi was super quick to respond to me and asked permission before taking my pepper anywhere. I will absolutely use Gabi again and recommend her to anyone that’s using Rover! This was my first time using rover and this experience really set the tone for the app! Amazing dog sitter!!”
“Brianne took great care of our 19 month old Bernedoodle, Kona. She and her family welcomed Kona into their home with love and care. We received pictures and updates which put us at ease since this was Kona's first time staying with another family and dog. Our dog even forgot who we were when we returned after 6 days to pick her up. Thanks again, Brianne!”
“Lucy took such good care of our rescue dog who has some insecurities. I didn’t have to worry about how he was adjusting at all because she kept me updated with pictures and details on his progress warming up every day. I would absolutely feel comfortable dropping him there again where he was treated like family sleeping in their bed and eating fresh food like scrambled eggs after running around outside. Thank you Lucy!!”
“Dana was absolutely amazing with our two pups! She was responsive, caring, and incredibly friendly from start to finish. We felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in such good hands. She kept us updated and clearly treated them like her own. We will definitely be using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!”
“Diane was an excellent dog sitter for our dog Luna. We were a little nervous because we just recently adopted her, she’s a little shy around new people, and and this was the first time we boarded her, but Diane was amazing, sent lots of pictures and updates, and I could tell Luna was very comfortable and well taken care of. Would highly recommend Diane.”
“I spent a lot of time searching on the website to find someone I could truly trust with my puppies. I know most people on the platform are great, but as a first-time dog owner with two puppies, I was honestly very nervous. Because of that, I usually didn’t travel and only left them for short periods while friends stayed at my home. This time, after a lot of searching, I found Chong. Before confirming the booking, I asked if I could visit her home first, and she kindly agreed. When we arrived, she welcomed us warmly, took my puppies herself, and brought them inside. The professional and confident way she handled everything immediately made me feel comfortable and trust her. During their stay, she sent me photos every day, which made me feel so reassured. On the last day, she even gave them a bath. We were actually planning to bathe them ourselves, so that was such a wonderful surprise. We were supposed to pick them up about an hour earlier, but our flight was delayed, our luggage took a long time, and several highways were closed. Everything caused us to arrive late, but she was still very kind and stayed up to wait for us so we could pick them up.”
“Rachel is amazing and took excellent care of our mini dachshund Ziggy! We are so appreciative of how communicative and attentive she is. Ziggy came back a super happy dog. Thank you!!”
“Nazgul took very good care of my dog, she updated me daily with pictures. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and will definitely use her services next time I’m out on vacation.”
“Tatyanah & Everardo did an awesome job with my Pup Isla!!! My Pup is very timid around other pups, but Tatyanah, Everardo, and their pups made Her feel very welcome. I received videos and pictures throughout the time Isla stayed at their home. I asked them for feedback and tips on how I can get Isla more comfortable around other pups. I would definitely recommend them. Isla will be seeing them soon as I plan to bring Isla back! Thank you Tatyanah and Everardo!”
“Hyun was so amazing and sweet to Parker. Our flight got delayed and she had no issue watching Parker longer than expected. She kept us updated frequently and made sure Parker got lots of play time. Will definitely use Hyun again next time we are away.”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to find Brandy! She took great care of our super anxious dog, Kona. We especially appreciated all the daily pictures and updates which provided us with comfort knowing he was doing well without us. An added bonus was Kona meeting Winston and having a bestie for a few days. We couldn’t have been more pleased with his stay at Brandy’s home. Thank you Brandy and Lt. Dan so much!”
“Aya had a great time, was nice and exhausted when she came back. She likes to be part of everyday activities and Tricia did a great job letting Aya be there. Tricia did a great job sending pictures and feedback, always bringing a smile to my face. I would use Tricia, and her family, again in a heartbeat!”
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.

“Josh was a life saver for us! We just moved to California and needed someone we could trust to watch our cat and he was exactly what we were looking for! He was so helpful to us, allowing us to still be able to travel and do what we need to do and know that our cat has a friend to look after them while we are away. So grateful for Josh, he is a must book, you won’t regret it!”
“Linda was the best. She took great care of our two cats and was highly communicative with timely visits and pictures. It was such a relief being away knowing that Linda was caring for them. We'll definitely be contacting her again for future pet-sitting needs - 10/10 highly recommend!”
About: Hello my name is Melba, I grew up taking care of animals at a very young age. I volunteered for an animal shelter for six years. At the shelter I would interact with cats and dogs. I would play with them as well as take them on walks. I am comfortable around all dogs and cats and I am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your pet. While your pet is in my care you can expect for them to get all the snuggles and love that they deserve while you are away to help them ease their mind off of missing their pet parent.

“Alexandra was wonderful! She was very attentive and communicative and was flexible when my little guy needed to start a medication at the last minute. Would definitely ask her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals all my life. Grew up in the country enjoying the luxury of having many fur babies. I also spent many years volunteering at a humane society, learning about the different dog breeds. I specialized in the rescue cases. I know how hard it is to juggle work, travel, etc. when you have pets. I want to help ease your worries. I’m here to help! I recently just relocated from Hawaii so my schedule is very open while I look for full time employment. I’m here for whatever your pet needs.

“We were very happy with Noemy, the cats are not used to us not being here and she actually sent pictures of them and they did not hide the entire time (this is huge!!!!!) Will definitely be a repeat customer”
About: Growing up in the country, my environment was filled with dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds early on. I have cared for everything from small, high-energy breeds like Chihuahua's to larger, and stronger breeds like Rottweilers and Pit-bulls. This exposure taught me how to adapt to the unique needs of each dog, including their exercise routines, feeding habits, and personality quirks. My ability to connect with dogs of all sizes and temperaments ensures they feel secure and cared for under my supervision. Rounded up I have five years of experience caring for dogs of different temperaments, sizes, and breeds making knowledge, communication, and compassion key skills of mine! These skills have been used to care for all types of dogs, whether it be seniors, new borns, or behavior challenged dogs! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, my flexible schedule allows me to prioritize the needs of the animals in my care. As a high school graduate, I have the freedom to manage my time efficiently, ensuring I can provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I schedule feeding times, walks, medications, and potty breaks around my coursework, giving each pet the structure they need while staying on top of my responsibilities. My ability to balance these tasks ensures that pets always feel cared for, even during busy periods. Having free weekends also allows me to dedicate more time to pets, who need consistent attention or engagement. I use this time for exercise, mental stimulation, or grooming, depending on the dogs needs and abilities. My focus on time management ensures that each pet is always prioritized, with plenty of quality time and attention incorporated into their routine. My goal is to provide a calm, nurturing, and healthy environment. I can ensure that pet care will fit seamlessly into my routine, allowing me to meet the needs for every dog I meet! Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, revolves around creating a safe, nurturing, and comfortable environment that fosters trust and well being. Safety is my top priority, which includes securing the living space to prevent accidents, removing hazardous items, and ensuring pets have access to fresh water and appropriate food for their dietary needs. I carefully monitor their behavior to identify any signs of distress or illness and address them promptly. For outdoor activities, I use secure leashes or harnesses and supervise them, and monitor them while off leash closely. Building trust with pets is essential to providing effective care. I take time to understand their unique personalities, preferences, and routines. By approaching them gently, respecting their boundaries, and offering positive reinforcement, this creates a sense of security and reliability. Whether it’s maintaining consistency in feeding schedules, potty breaks, and spending quality time/playing, I strive to create a comfortable environment for each dog I meet. I can ensure they feel valued and cared for, the environment I provide is clean, stimulating, and adapted to their specific needs. I offer comfortable resting areas, engaging toys, and plenty of space to explore. If I’m in a client’s home, I respect their established routines and follow their care instructions precisely, maintaining a seamless transition for the pet. Ultimately, my approach combines attentiveness, compassion, and professionalism to ensure every pet thrives under my care.
“We were very anxious to leave our cat Bambi alone for the weekend for the first time and even more stressed when our sitter fell through last minute. Dana was incredibly attentive and patiently accepted all of our requests for Bambi on short notice. I definitely felt so much more assured that Bambi wouldn’t be completely alone and would have someone as compassionate as Dana to accompany him :-) Dana’s updates on Bambi during check ins really reassured us that Bambi was doing well. and in good hands :-) i would definitely consider Dana again in the future ❤️”

About: I recently took a break from dog sitting to focus on caring for my baby. Now that things have settled into a routine, I'm excited to start accepting bookings again! I have 6+ years dog-sitting experience with dogs of many different sizes and temperaments. Personally I have a 85 pound German Shepherd mix, Turbo, a 40 pound labradoodle, Maple, and an 80 pound Rottie/GSD mix named Tater. I thoroughly enjoy playing with them everyday and have learned many training techniques from raising them. I have a great deal of experience caring for a highly allergic and anxious dog. I understand the helplessness that can often come with trying to find a treatment that works. If your dog has allergies/skin issues, or any other special needs, I'm more than happy to help. Rest assured your dog will be given the love and attention they need to feel comfortable in my home. We do have 1 cat (named Sesame) who would prefer to be left alone. If your dog is very reactive around cats this will not be a good fit. I am a stay- at- home mom and my husband works from home, so we can offer a great amount of flexibility with drop-off and pick-up times. Your dog will be supervised 24/7 when in my care. I have a large (2.3 acre), fully-fenced backyard for optimal play! I have three friendly dogs who would love to show your dog all the best sniff spots. We also love going on walks, playing fetch, taking naps, and playing "find it." I've taken a dog CPR class to better understand the warning signs of a dog in distress, and what actions to take in an emergency. Being a pet parent myself, I greatly understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing your dog is safe and happy. Therefore, I will always send you multiple updates, with photos, every day throughout your dogs stay. Please let me know if you have any questions! I'd love to schedule a meet and greet. I can't wait to meet your pup!

When we were gone she sent lots of photos and updates, which we appreciated. On our return, Kristen had stripped the bed and washed her bedding. Wow! We felt completely comfortable leaving our baby in her care and I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I've been caring for dogs since I was 9 years old and currently have a furry friend of my own. With years of experience, I've become the go-to dog sitter for family, friends, and neighbors, whether it's for a quick drop-in or an overnight stay. From playful pups to senior companions, I’m dedicated to giving each dog the attention, care, and love they deserve while their owners are away. Your pet will feel right at home with me! As a hairstylist and makeup artist working four days a week, I love balancing my creative work with my passion for caring for pets on my days off. With a flexible schedule, I can devote my free time to providing dedicated, reliable care for your furry friends. Whether it's a quick visit or an overnight stay, I ensure every pet feels loved and looked after while you're away. When caring for pets in my home or yours, I strictly follow every instruction provided by the pet parent. I understand how crucial it is to stick to routines and adhere to any dietary or health restrictions for your pet’s safety. Having a dog with strict dietary requirements myself, I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone and worry if they will be cared for properly. That’s why I make it my priority to follow all rules and guidelines, so you can feel 100% confident that your pet is in good hands.
About: I used to volunteer at the SPCA animal shelter. I also used to house sit for two families and two dogs each time for a week. I have also done a little bit of dog walking here and there. I’m open and available all summer! I can work any day of the week and times would vary so just let me know what times! I can not offer in home boarding because I do live with other roommates who are allergic to dogs, but I am happy to fulfill any services you need!
About: I had the joy of raising my own dog for five years, and he was truly my best buddy. He reminded me every day how special, pure, and smart animals are. That experience taught me the respect, love, and patience every pet deserves. Caring for him deepened my passion for animals, and I carry that same devotion into caring for other pets as if they were my own. I own my own business and work four days a week, which gives me flexibility. I’m fully available on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. On Tuesdays I’m free after 3:30pm, and Fridays before 3:30pm. I make sure to plan around my schedule so I can give pets the time, care, and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a loving, trustworthy environment where they can feel at ease. I enjoy walks, cuddles, and playtime, making sure each pet gets both attention and fun while staying safe and cared for. You can count on me to treat your furry friend like family.
About: Pets deserve the best! Grew up surrounded by all types of pets, such as dogs, cats, turtles, and hamsters. Have had a cat of my own for 6 years, and I've constantly looked after my sister's dog since he was a puppy. I was the animal-obsessed one in my family, constantly taking in strays. I am a student at a University and have class on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. However, I am free on those days after 5 pm. On Monday, Wednesday, and the weekend. I am free at any hour. I give my full attention to the animal when I am with them and treat them as my own. I am always sure the animal is comfortable before anything. I love to treat other people's pets as my own, and know when to give them their space. Am respectful of others' homes and careful not to disturb space. Instructions are easy for me to follow, and I like to send updates with photos of your fur baby.

“Erica did an amazing job with our dog. She made sure Cici got attention and the best of care to include administering medication as needed. She sent pictures throughout the day and was excellent at communicating. I felt like our fur baby was in great hands.”
“We had a great experience with Sarah! She was reliable, communicated clearly, and took wonderful care of Zoey and Milo. We got regular updates and came home to happy pups. I will definitely book with her again.”
“Lori is a natural caretaker. She provided so much love and attention to Zara, my standard poodle. I could see how much fun Zara was having through the photogenic pictures Lori sent each day. Lori's 1-acre of land is such a plus for the dogs to run and play. At the end of the stay, Zara and Lori were both sad to part. That speaks volumes about the wonderful level of care your pet will receive while staying with Lori. Book her now!”
“Kathryn and Matt were amazing. They have 2 other dogs that Gumbo was able to play with and the property was safe for him to have a good time.. They gave regular updates on how he was doing, walked him around the neighborhood and even snuggled him on the couch when he sat next to them. They were excellent caretakers.”
“Brianne took great care of our 19 month old Bernedoodle, Kona. She and her family welcomed Kona into their home with love and care. We received pictures and updates which put us at ease since this was Kona's first time staying with another family and dog. Our dog even forgot who we were when we returned after 6 days to pick her up. Thanks again, Brianne!”
“Dana was absolutely amazing with our two pups! She was responsive, caring, and incredibly friendly from start to finish. We felt completely at ease knowing our dogs were in such good hands. She kept us updated and clearly treated them like her own. We will definitely be using her services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!”
“Tatyanah & Everardo did an awesome job with my Pup Isla!!! My Pup is very timid around other pups, but Tatyanah, Everardo, and their pups made Her feel very welcome. I received videos and pictures throughout the time Isla stayed at their home. I asked them for feedback and tips on how I can get Isla more comfortable around other pups. I would definitely recommend them. Isla will be seeing them soon as I plan to bring Isla back! Thank you Tatyanah and Everardo!”
“This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to find Brandy! She took great care of our super anxious dog, Kona. We especially appreciated all the daily pictures and updates which provided us with comfort knowing he was doing well without us. An added bonus was Kona meeting Winston and having a bestie for a few days. We couldn’t have been more pleased with his stay at Brandy’s home. Thank you Brandy and Lt. Dan so much!”
“Aya had a great time, was nice and exhausted when she came back. She likes to be part of everyday activities and Tricia did a great job letting Aya be there. Tricia did a great job sending pictures and feedback, always bringing a smile to my face. I would use Tricia, and her family, again in a heartbeat!”
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.
“Amanada is AMAZING!! I could write a whole essay on how great and loving this family is, but for the sake of the review, I'll keep it short! One of our pups ruptured her CCL a week before our trip, and this was one of those trips that wasn't going to be cancelled or moved. Amanda was able to easily accommodate the updated meds and keep us updated on how Emma seemed to be doing with her injury. Her background as a vet tech helped put our minds at ease and Emma and Otto were in some of the most capable hands during our trip. Our whole family loved the photos and videos provided and Emma and Otto had a blast and made themselves totally comfortable with Amanda and her sweet family. We will definitely be in touch in the future!”
“Erica quickly bonded with my dogs (3) and has provided excellent care. She is very caring and conscientious. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring and knowledgeable person to care for their pet. Her rates are very reasonable, and she provides exceptional service. I was in a serious pinch. Erica was so quick to except my request. I’m glad with how everything worked out.”
“Sandra took care of my dog for almost 12 days. When we first visited Sandra and her dog Max for a meet and greet, my dog Wolfie immediately wanted to play with Max. They played very well together and I felt comfortable leaving my best buddy with Sandra and Max. Sandra kept me updated with photos and text messages. I would not hesitate to recommend Sandra as a responsible pet sitter.”
“Caleb was wonderful. He asked for important details about our dog that would make caring for Rocky easier. He sent updates such as texts and photos. He would respond quickly to my questions and was very flexible. Our fur baby was happy and relaxed when we returned home. We will definitely use his services again. Caleb is highly recommended.”
“LilDude had was so well taken care of at Angie's home. Could not ask for a better family to have dude stay with. If you're looking for someone who really loves dogs please give Angie a call. Again thank you Angie and family for have dude there for a week, and a special thank you to Charlie Brown who was there to welcome dude.”
“Excellent service! Provides daily photos and updates. Works great with dogs that are not used to multiple people or dogs. Very accommodating and times/date adjustments. Would highly recommend her.”
“David watched my dogs for two days. Both dogs have had some reactivity to different dogs/things so I was pretty nervous. David reassured me and was able to guide the dogs through a positive experience and one of them was even able to build new experiences with other dogs. It was such a wonderful experience!!”
“Sean & family are great with our pup. We are return customers and when my dog goes back to them, his tail is wagging and he eagerly greats each of them (especially their dog, Zorian). It is truly leaving our dog with his ‘second’ family while we are out of town.”
“Sierra took great care of my babies. One of my pups had a cut on his paw and she treated it as asked and had him wearing his cone (even though he hated it). When we picked them up they were happy. We were nervous because our pups can have a hard time adjusting to new places but Sierra let us know they did take some time but eventually settled and got comfortable. She also sent pictures/updates which I loved 😊”
“Marta is the best host! She is very kind and attentive to ease our dog’s separation anxiety. Really appreciate the photo & video updates of the puppies playing and having a great time :)”
