“Roxy has been under Anton’s care multiple times now and we feel very fortunate to have found him. It gives us peace of mind every time we leave for a trip or just need a few days of boarding. He gives you constant updates and is very honest with everything, roxy has found a home away from home. Thank you Anton!”
“Cody was in great care here! Yulan & Gaochuan treated Cody like family and send me plenty of photos and videos during his stay. I will happily use their services again.”
“Merilu took wonderful care of our dog. She kept us updated regularly with pictures. This was my first time using Rover and Mercury helped me trust others with the care of our pooch. We have already booked her for a second visit. Thank you!”
“Sujit was an amazing doggy-sitter. He sent us pictures of our fur baby often and was accessible if we had a question or needed to speak to him. I can tell he really loves dogs and we would def request his services in the future.”
“Excellent experience! Buffy loved Deana and came home happy and relaxed. I really appreciated the updates and the photos throughout the boarding and it's clear that Deana genuinely loved and cares for the dogs. High recommend and will definitely book again!”
“Dipankar and Nagma were the most wonderful and caring hosts. They took time to understand my dog's needs and communicated daily with pictures and updates. They reliably attended to his medications and even worked on training my young dog to reinforce the commands he was in the process of learning. They have a wonderful and friendly dog of their own who served as an excellent playmate. My dog had clearly bonded with their family by the time I picked him up. I missed my dog very much, but was fully confident that he was in good hands with Dipankar and Nagma.”
“Punam has boarded our girls twice now and they receive fantastic and attentive care! We are so lucky to have Punam take care of them whenever we need - communication, extra attention, extra love all make it so we feel comfortable being away from them.”
“Anu did an awesome job watching our two puppies for a week while on vacation. She was great at communicating and sending us pictures to keep us posted on the fur babies. Highly recommend!”
“Peter is very kind and easy to communicate and work with. Peter is accessible and transparent while you’re away, which takes one important task off your plate when traveling for work. I could tell Ziba had a great time given her excitement to play with Peter when we picked her up. Thanks, Peter. 🙏🏼”
“Shirley is awesome! She took good care of twinkle while we're on vacation. I wanted to take her with us. But unfortunately, she's not allowed. I found Shirley & glad that I did. She constantly sending me updates & picture of my baby. Would definitely have her take care of ny twinkle next time that I can't take her with us.”
“Our dogs had a great time with Cindy!! We received pictures and/or videos daily. We were so pleased with how well she took care of them. They enjoyed time at the dog park and snuggles with her. The dogs told us they want to go back to her next time we go on vacation ?”
“This was our first time boarding our dogs with Nakul and we're very pleased with his care. Ziggy and Ozzie were well taken care of. We appreciate Nakul's patience with Ozzie who is grumpy and growls at strangers. Nakul found out that a piece of chicken can help you befriend even a grump like Ziggy. Thank you Nakul, we look forward to boarding them with you again.”
“My dog, Ellie had a wonderful stay with Anthony! He provided updates, pictures and videos! I am so grateful to have found a safe and reliable person to take care of my fur baby!”
“Definitely Patrik went above and beyond. His communication was on point every day, updating us about our dog, his care was super good, patience and I can tell my dog felt like at home. Definitely a re book for us. He listen all the instructions to take care of Cleo and help us with her. Definitely a great sitter and recommended for everyone!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and since we’ve had our dog, Comet, for only a few months, I was feeling really unsure about the whole process. Allison completely put my mind at ease. It’s clear she has a wealth of knowledge and experience with dogs. She has now watched Comet on multiple occasions, both for overnight boarding and daycare. Comet is always so excited to go back, which is the true review right there! He has so much fun that he usually needs a full day of recovery when he gets home! If she's able to she will take Comet out for a walk but there is so much room for him to run around and play in her yard that he always finds a way to get all his energy out. Allison is incredibly thoughtful, friendly, and consistent with sending pictures and updates throughout the day. I definitely recommend her and plan to continue entrusting her with Comet's care.”
“Our dog Luna had a great time under Laurence’s care for a week. She sent us daily short videos to show us how our dog was doing. Luna is not a social dog at all so it was nice to see her settle in at a new place for a week. I highly recommend Laurence and we will definitely use her services again!”
“Carlos and his wife cared wonderfully for our two little girls. I was so hesitant to travel without them, but I knew plane travel would be so stressful for cats. Carlos regularly sent updates and pictures, letting us know how they were doing and how they were settling in. I am so glad they had fun at Camp Carlos while we were away, it was definitely much better for them then being boarded at a facility where they would be caged all day. He was flexible and super easy to work with to boot. Thank you Carlos for caring so well for our kitties while we were away!”
“Starlee is always nervous with new people and animals. I can tell Natalie cares a lot and did a great job making her feel comfortable. When I came to pick her up she was a lot more relaxed and happy. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“We’re so thankful to Tracey for taking care of Ginger while we were away. It honestly made our trip so much more relaxing knowing Ginger was with someone so kind and caring. When we got back, Ginger was happy, comfortable, and clearly well loved. You can really tell Tracey treated her like her own. We appreciate her so much and would absolutely book with her again anytime 🐾💛”

About: I helped my parents take care of there friends dogs since I was 8 and they've taught me a lot. Also my mom worked at Petco and worked in animal care and she told me and taught me what she's learned from her experience at work with cats and other animals. I've been currently looking for a job and havent had any luck so I have a lot of free time on my hands weekdays and weekends!! When we went to go sit my parents friends dogs we would feed them every morning and evening and then let them run around in the backyard they had a doggie door in their bedroom so for the most part the dogs had access to the bathroom to go potty and come and go as they please. But when we hung out in the living room with them since there was no access to a doggy door we would let them out around 3-4 times per day we would also walk them in the morning and sunset and feed them either before or after there walk depending on their actions and vibes
About: 🐾Love By Pets. Recommended by humans. Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with decades of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, breeds, temperaments, and care levels. Improving the lives of animals is my passion. Every pet that enters my care is treated like family, receiving the same love, patience, respect, protection and individualized attention I would want for my own beloved pets. Whether you have a puppy, a fragile senior, a pregnant or nursing mother, a shy rescue, or a pet with medical, behavioral, or anxiety-related challenges, I provide compassionate, personalized care tailored to their unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, enriching, stress-free and FUN experience that allows pets to thrive while giving their owners complete peace of mind. ✨ Experience Includes: • All ages. Puppies, kittens (bottle feeding ok 👍🏻), seniors, and hospice care • Pregnant animals and nursing mothers • Medication administration and specialized care plans • Medical, behavioral, and anxiety-related conditions • Fearful, reactive, rescue, and special-needs pets • Giant breeds (120–200+ lbs), toy breeds, and everything in between • Bully breeds, guardian breeds, working dogs, and high-drive breeds • Exotic and specialty felines • Birds, reptiles, and small animals • Multi-pet households My experience extends far beyond traditional pet sitting. I have spent years working with animal rescues and participating in Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and community cat programs, helping care for and advocate for vulnerable animals. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, trust-building, and how to safely handle pets with a wide range of personalities and backgrounds. I have also been honored to participate in efforts supporting families through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, including helping facilitate meaningful visits for children whose wish was to spend time with animals and pets. These experiences further strengthened my commitment to compassion, reliability, and providing comfort during life’s most meaningful moments. Caring for others—both human and animal—is at the heart of everything I do. Communication is one of my highest priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout your pet’s stay so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your family member is safe, happy, and loved. 💗 What Makes My Care Different? • Personalized, one-on-one attention for the duration • Flexible and accommodating scheduling • Solo daycare available upon request • Extended stays welcome • Customized routines tailored to your pet • Calm, loving, family-oriented environment • Experience with pets requiring advanced handling skills • Care from someone who genuinely loves animals and understands their individual needs Many of my clients become long-term members of my pet-care family. I’m proud to have earned the trust of repeat clients who rely on me to care for everything from tiny teacups and exotic pets to giant breeds, working dogs, bully breeds, seniors, rescues, and pets with complex medical or behavioral needs. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision. That’s why I focus on building trust, maintaining open communication, and ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, understood, and loved from the moment they arrive. I look forward to welcoming your furry, feathered, or scaly family member and giving them the same level of care, compassion, and attention I would give my own. Because every pet deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve family. 🐾💕 My schedule revolves around pet care already. Caring for animals has been a major part of my daily life for many years through pet care/sitting/walking etc, animal rescue work, and caring for my own pets. While your pet is with me, this is their time and all of my focus and attention is on them for the duration of the booking. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, companionship, medication administration when needed, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a flexible schedule, or specialized care, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. Every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to each animal’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medications, favorite activities, fears, quirks, and any special instructions. Owner guidance and instructions are key to providing the best possible booking and any information provided will be followed closely (and greatly appreciated!). One thing that sets my care apart is that I do not use kennels or crates unless they are already part of your pet’s normal routine and you specifically request it. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, secure, and at home—not confined unnecessarily. For families looking for a more personalized experience, I also offer accommodations such as Private Doggy Daycare, Private Kitty Daycare, Private Canine Camp, and Private Kitty Camp, where your pet can be the only guest in my care for the duration of their stay. I am always happy to discuss special requests and customize care whenever possible. Whether caring for a tiny breed, a giant breed, a working dog, a bully breed, a senior pet, or a rescue animal with unique needs, safety, comfort, and individualized attention always come first.

About: I’ve had dogs and tons of animals (cats, mice, lizards, bunnies, etc.) through out my life. I currently have a toy poodle, I trained, I groom him myself and I make his food. He is a healthy boy that has never eaten kibble. I currently have a cat and pitbull at my parents house I also care for when my parents go out of town. I love animals and they love me back I can show you better than I can tell you! I’m very patient. I never use harsh reinforcement to correct my fur babies. Time, Love, Consistency and Patience is the key to an amazing dog with great behaviors! I’m currently working part time/reduced hours. I have open availability. I’m very flexible also when it comes to dog parents schedules and things coming up. Love number one. Learn the dog. I’m there to serve them. Comfort and good communication.

About: Animals have been an essential part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have always felt a special connection with cats, understanding their subtle language and mysterious energy. But my love for animals is not limited to them; I have also shared my life with dogs and all kinds of pets, learning to communicate with each one with respect, empathy and heart. I had the incredible experience of living in the jungle of Colombia, surrounded by nature and a great variety of living beings. There, I learned to observe, listen and feel the language of animals, understanding their emotions and needs in a deep and natural way. In addition, I have participated as a volunteer in adoption foundations, helping to find loving homes for rescued pets. I have also worked in the rehabilitation and care of animals with limited conditions, providing them with patience, love and the necessary support to improve their quality of life. Thanks to this connection and experience, I can offer conscious and personalized care, adapting to the personality and energy of each pet. Whether it's a shy cat that needs patience, an energetic dog that loves adventure, or any furry companion with special needs, I am committed to providing them with love, companionship, and security at all times. If you are looking for someone who will not only take care of your pet, but truly understand them and make them feel at peace, I am here to help! 🐾✨ I work part-time on different creative projects, which allows me to organize my time flexibly. This gives me the opportunity to fully dedicate myself to caring for pets when they are under my responsibility, making sure they receive all the attention, love and company they need. For me, caring for animals is not just a service, but a way to connect with them and share my energy and affection. My adaptable schedule allows me to adjust to the needs of each pet and its family, providing reliable and personalized care. Although I don't currently have pets with me, I have shared my life with cats and dogs, which has given me a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. When I care for pets in their owner's home, I respect their routine, their environment, and their individual needs. I make sure to follow their instructions to the letter so that the pet feels safe and in harmony. In addition, I focus on providing companionship, affection, and personalized attention, always maintaining open communication with the owners for their peace of mind. My priority is to create an environment of trust and well-being for each pet, making sure that they feel loved and cared for at all times.

“Dipankar and Nagma were the most wonderful and caring hosts. They took time to understand my dog's needs and communicated daily with pictures and updates. They reliably attended to his medications and even worked on training my young dog to reinforce the commands he was in the process of learning. They have a wonderful and friendly dog of their own who served as an excellent playmate. My dog had clearly bonded with their family by the time I picked him up. I missed my dog very much, but was fully confident that he was in good hands with Dipankar and Nagma.”
“Peter is very kind and easy to communicate and work with. Peter is accessible and transparent while you’re away, which takes one important task off your plate when traveling for work. I could tell Ziba had a great time given her excitement to play with Peter when we picked her up. Thanks, Peter. 🙏🏼”

“This was our first time boarding our dogs with Nakul and we're very pleased with his care. Ziggy and Ozzie were well taken care of. We appreciate Nakul's patience with Ozzie who is grumpy and growls at strangers. Nakul found out that a piece of chicken can help you befriend even a grump like Ziggy. Thank you Nakul, we look forward to boarding them with you again.”

Definitely a re book for us. He listen all the instructions to take care of Cleo and help us with her. Definitely a great sitter and recommended for everyone!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and since we’ve had our dog, Comet, for only a few months, I was feeling really unsure about the whole process. Allison completely put my mind at ease. It’s clear she has a wealth of knowledge and experience with dogs. She has now watched Comet on multiple occasions, both for overnight boarding and daycare. Comet is always so excited to go back, which is the true review right there! He has so much fun that he usually needs a full day of recovery when he gets home! If she's able to she will take Comet out for a walk but there is so much room for him to run around and play in her yard that he always finds a way to get all his energy out. Allison is incredibly thoughtful, friendly, and consistent with sending pictures and updates throughout the day. I definitely recommend her and plan to continue entrusting her with Comet's care.”
“We’re so thankful to Tracey for taking care of Ginger while we were away. It honestly made our trip so much more relaxing knowing Ginger was with someone so kind and caring. When we got back, Ginger was happy, comfortable, and clearly well loved. You can really tell Tracey treated her like her own. We appreciate her so much and would absolutely book with her again anytime 🐾💛”

“Stefanile is a great sitter. She was incredibly accommodating and patient in dealing with my dog—a rather shy, introverted, and somewhat challenging dog. Given her deep understanding of canine personalities and traits, as well as her extensive experience as a sitter, I was able to entrust Chaco to her care with peace of mind. She sent updates and photos, making communication very easy. Thank you!”
