“Kylie and Anthony took amazing care of our Adonis! They met his needs and were super accommodating to us as we had unexpected travel delays. Will definitely use their services again. I felt so comfortable leaving our pup in their care. He was taken care of like their own family.”
“This was our second time trusting Holly with our furbaby! She is always on time, communicates right away, and sends several daily updates so we never have to worry. It puts our minds completely at ease when we are missing our pup. Thank you, Holly, for being an awesome dog sitter!”
“We’ve booked Bill and Todd like a dozen times now and they’re so awesome. Highly recommend them, it’s worth the extra couple of dollars for piece of mind that our fur babies are in good hands.”
“My dogs looked so happy in all the pics sent. I would def be rebooking. I also loved the service of pick up and drop off. It definitely was a stress free experience ❤️”
“My lil Papi enjoyed his time with Adam and Maya. He loves when there’s other dogs around to play with. Their environment is a great space for all the dogs to play in! Appreciate you guys!”
“Cerita went above and beyond the call of duty when caring for blue. She fed him snacks and made sure he was comfortable. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Cerita.”
“Ami is excellent! She has watched our dog a couple times already while we are out of town. Our dog loves her and she’s very responsive and sends regular updates. We appreciate you Ami!”
“Another great stay, LeeLoo gets happy every time she sees their house. Maryjane also does a great job taking care of her and communication and daily updates.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in Diana’s care. This is the first time I left my dog overnight with someone and I have had my dog nine years. Now I can go places that don’t accept dogs and I feel comfortable leaving him behind.”
“Melanie was great! She sent us updates every day and our pup seemed right at home. It was our first time using Rover so we were a little apprehensive but she put us at ease after meeting her and seeing how comfortable our boy was with her.”
“20/10!! Savannah took amazing care of our pups!! Especially when it came to giving my one pup her eyedrops daily. She took the best photos and I could tell the pups had a great time! 100% recommend and would have our pups stay with her again!”
“Samantha was amazing with my dog! She sent picture updates daily and provided me with updates while I was away (all without asking which I loved!!) I would 100% recommend using her to watch your pets and will be booking with her again.”
“Sama was great! I reached out to her in advance about her watching our 2 senior pups while we were in the hospital delivering our son and she was super down to be flexible around his due date and take them at short notice. He came 5 days early and she was able to modify the stay and take them early that day. She sent daily updates and pictures and they were clearly very cozy and happy in her home. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Araceli is fantastic. My dogs love being with her. She is always so responsive and she let me drop off the dogs two hours earlier than I initially asked for which was really helpful due to travel plans changing.”
“It is obvious how much Marwa loves cats and takes great care of them. She was a lifesaver for my Felix as he is newly rescued, was sick and not neutered so I had very limited options on where to board him, but she was happy to have him as her only cat for the week I was gone. He loved her and came back a happy cat.”

“We’ve had sitters before, but never have we seen Buddy warming up to someone this quickly. He was literally demanding belly rubs from Sara the second day! Loki, of course, loved her from the start (he loves everyone), but it was especially heartwarming to see how relaxed and happy all three of our cats were while we were away. Even Lucy, who can be… let’s say, selectively social, tolerated her presence like a true diva. Sara clearly has a natural gift with animals. We felt completely at ease knowing our furry crew was in such good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter!”
“Brenda did an awesome job looking after my two cats, notoriously shy, she got them to hang out and play! I already asked her to do another drop-in, she’s super reliable and the cats seemed very happy with how much time she spent with them!”
“Tara is amazing. She took such good care of my babies. And my girl who doesn't like anyone and is always too shy, made friends with her. And of course my boy loved her. And not only that she took care of my plants and made sure my home was ok.”
“Stephanie went above and beyond to take care of our disgruntled pit bull. In the process of switching sitters and our dog was not being friendly at all when Stephanie showed up, despite the previous meet & greet. Scary to have a pit growling and barking at you but Stephanie was able to win her over. Relieved and impressed, will be rebooking Stephanie regularly.”
“Victoria was great! Quick/easy to communicate, check ins were on time and as discussed, and she seemed to take great care of my cat while I was gone! I will use her in the future.”
“Dana did an awesome job watching our cat!! She was super responsive, came at the time we had requested, and even got our shy girl to come out and say hi! Would definitely recommend”
“It was my first time using Rover, and I was out of town for the Christmas holiday needing someone to check in on my cat. Callahan did a fantastic job! She cleaned his litter box, refreshed his water, and made sure he got lots of love and attention. She was incredibly communicative, prompt, and responsible throughout the entire stay. I would absolutely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
“Nicole did a wonderful job taking care of our sweet boy while we were away! She gave him lots of attention, left us detailed updates, and provided us with photos and videos.”
About: I’ve had both dogs and cats all my life! I have 2 years of professional experience & over 10 years of personal experience with pets of all ages. Very comfortable with anxious/disabled/senior pets who need specific care/diet/medication. I have a flexible schedule. If your pets can’t be left alone for long hours during the day, I can adjust my schedule to accommodate that! I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by following their usual routine in the place they know best. I’ll provide lots of love, playtime, walks, meals, fresh water, and any special care they need while treating your home with respect. I'll also send regular updates with photos, so you can relax knowing your pets are cared for while you’re away!
“William was an awesome pet sitter! He was attentive and super nice with my kitties! He is a very passionate and caring sitter and I would recommend him to anyone.”
“Kiersten did a great job taking care of our cat, Gigi! He was great with giving her meds twice a day, looking out for any accidents, and giving all the pets. Looking forward to booking her again!”
“Yesenia is fantastic! She cared for our kitties like they're her own. One, in particular, was going through some health challenges, and Yesenia took extra care to tend to her medication and special diet. She also played with them and kept us updated throughout, including lots of pictures.”
About: I'm a caring, patient animal lover with hands-on experience training my own Aussie Shepherd, who was highly reactive when I got him. Through consistent, patient training, he's transformed — we now go on hikes and even trips to the mall together. That experience taught me how to read a dog's stress signals and adjust my approach to each individual's needs. I also work at a senior living community, where I spend my days building genuine connections with residents through active listening and personalized attention. Whether it's a person or a pet, I bring the same calm, consistent care — and I'd love to bring that same patience and attentiveness to your dog. I'm currently a Biology student at Miramar College working toward transferring to a four-year university, and I balance my coursework and lab hours with part-time work at a senior living community. Pet sitting/walking fits naturally into my routine — it gives me flexible income between classes and shifts while I explore internships in my field, and it's a great way to unwind from a full day of labs and studying. In a client's home, I focus on keeping things as close to your pet's normal routine as possible — feeding times, walk schedules, and any specific habits or triggers you let me know about. I'm observant and patient, so I pay close attention to body language and adjust my approach if a pet seems anxious or unsure of me at first. My experience working with seniors has also sharpened my ability to read subtle cues and respond calmly, which carries over well into how I handle animals who need a little extra reassurance.
About: I currently live with a cat in my apartment, and have family who own a cat so I’m familiar with the everyday responsibilities of caring for a cat, including feeding, keeping their space clean, and giving them plenty of attention and playtime. While I’m new to professional cat sitting, I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely love animals. I’ll make sure your cat feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away, and I’m happy to follow any specific routines or instructions you provide.
About: Doggy Mama of 10 years for my sweet Wheaten Terrier, Suki! I have been with her for all stages of life: curious puppy, energetic teenager, and mellow adult. This has taught me how to adjust towards whatever needs your pet may have. No matter the attention your furry friend needs— whether it be downtime and cuddles, or zoomies and long walks— I am here to provide! I can administer medication, and will easily adapt to the schedule/routine that your pet requires. I am a sophomore student at San Diego State University, majoring in Criminal Justice. I have classes Monday-Thursday starting at 12:00pm and ending by 4:00pm. I live on campus and have a car so transportation is not an issue. I am able to pet sit at anytime throughout the week that I don’t have classes- and am willing to stay over night and/or through the weekends. Caring for your companion will vary depending on personality and routine but there are definitely some core principles that I carry with me. First one being respect— respect of your home, respect of your animals needs and wants, and respect of your time. I will be present as much as I can be, even if that means just sitting in the same room as them. Another core value, depending on your pet, is exercise. It doesn’t matter if it’s a long walk, a short and slow walk, or even just interacting with toys— something that gets them moving and keeps them entertained. And a big one is love, I promise to absolutely adore your animal and show them kindness in whatever ways they need. That could look like self care: brushing their coat, massaging stiff joints. That could look like affection: rubbing on them, talking to them, and making sure they know i’m here for them. And that could also mean giving them space. Any adjustment that I can make to give you and your pet a smooth experience, I would love to do.
About: I'm an experienced cat owner and currently care for my cats, Bandit and Luna. Through caring for them, I've gained hands-on experience with feeding schedules, administering oral medications, monitoring health concerns, cleaning litter boxes, and providing enrichment and playtime tailored to different personalities. I understand that every cat is unique. Some love attentions and playtime, while others prefer a quieter approach and playtime, while others prefer a quieter approach and playtime, while others prefer a quieter approach and need time to warm up. I'm patient, attentive, and committed to helping cats feel comfortable and safe while their owner are away. I can also provide regular updates and photos, so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are well cared for.
About: I love cats and have 2 of my own. They are 1 year old and 7 months, and I have trained them to wear harnesses and leashes to take “walks” outside. (they walk me, not the other way around.) My first cat sadly was diagnosed with feline leukemia and passed away after just 2 short years of his life. However, missing him so much led me to getting my two cats I have now. <3 I also have handled administering meds, bottle feeding, and brushing cats teeth strictly from personal experience. I’ve had my fair share of litter boxes to clean and it comes easy and natural to pick up and care after any type of furry friend.

“Todd and Bill are responsible and experienced dog care providers. Accommodating and considerate of their clients, they give me piece of mind that my wonderful dog is in good hands.”
“Maryjane was a wonderful sitter for my dog, Peanut Butter! She was extremely responsive and helpful. When my sitter last minute cancelled, she swooped in to save the day. She sent updates about PB all day, which kept me feeling comfortable about my newly-adopted puppy. I’d highly recommend Maryjane!”

“She's great. My dog has never been with anyone but family and she is able to comfort him. With my schedule changing, it is wonderful having her as a backup for work. Like I said, she's great.”
“Antonio is really great! He had my dog Prince who is very nervous and timid with new people stay for day care. Antonio and I set up a meet and greet first and he was patient and understanding with Prince and has been great about giving Prince space and time to open up. He seems to know his stuff about dogs and introduced Prince to the other dogs at daycare slowly making sure Prince was comfortable. Anotnio also sent lots of pics and videos keeping me super up to date with Prince’s progress which I really appreciated! I would definitely use Antionio again!”
“Our dogs had the best time at Joseph and Chris’ home. We were in town just for the weekend and Joseph and Chris were very accommodating in hosting our pups while we went to the zoo. Communication leading up to the visit, and during their stay was phenomenal. Once we picked up our dogs, they fell asleep immediately, which is always a sign of a good time!”
“Had a last minute trip and Melanie was able to accommodate us. She was very informative, sent pictures and let us know how she was doing. I would love to use Melanie again when we are in town.”
“Michelle was great with our anxious senior pup! He has separation anxiety and she created a very calming environment for him to hang out at and had a great system to ensure that he was comfortable. She was communicative and easy to plan with. We’ll definitely book with her again!”
“William is super awesome. He took great care of our young pup and was a very cool and funny guy to boot. He was definitley flexible and super responsive. He’ll be a great buddy for my buddy going forward.”
About: As the son of a competitive sled dog racer in the northeast, I spent my entire childhood with dogs - at work, at play, and at rest. As an adult, I have cared for pets of my own as well as for pets of family and friends throughout the LA area, building strong bonds and providing reliable, attentive care. I recently moved to San Diego and am excited to build a loving community of furry friends. I love dogs of all breeds and sizes... but huskies will always have my heart. I work from home as a writer, which means I’m around throughout the day to give dogs plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and companionship. My wife is a nurse and is available in the evenings and on weekends and variable weekdays, providing extra support, love and attention. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take pride in creating a calm, safe, and loving environment tailored to your dog’s needs. We have a fully fenced-in front yard as well as a separate fenced turf area in the back, giving dogs safe outdoor space to play, explore, and relax throughout the day. Whether your dog is high-energy, shy, or a senior who prefers lounging in the sun, they’ll be treated like family here. Safety - Secure, fenced property - our home features a fully fenced front grass yard and a separate fenced turf area in the back, allowing dogs to enjoy outdoor time safely and supervised - Constant supervision - since I work from home, dogs are rarely left alone - Controlled environment - I limit the number of dogs I care for at once to ensure personalized attention and a calm, low-stress setting - Routine and consistency - I follow your dog’s established feeding and walking schedules. - Clean and comfortable home - dogs are treated like family with access to clean indoor space and safe outdoor area.

Both my husband and I work from home so we can give your pup lots of attention. I work from home and I’m home most of the day during the week. My house has a fenced in yard for bathroom breaks and play time and I walk my dogs 2-3 times per day. If your dog loves walks, they will be walked at least twice a day.

I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I currently live with a roommate who has a Lab and a cat, so I’m around both dogs and cats regularly. I’ve also had experience pet sitting for friends, family, and others, and I understand how important it is to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away.

There is a lot of places to walk the dog and go to the bathroom near my apartment
About: I like to stay fit and I love dogs. So I spend a lot of time outside with dogs where they naturally belong. I’ve had a dogs in my family all my life. I’ve enjoyed training puppies and establishing loving ways of communication. I own a gym and I’m constantly telling my clients “want to get your steps in? Get a dog!” I love being outside and pet care keeps me honest. You will always find me out in the Sun with a doggie. We have a fenced bbq area where we hang out during the day and soak up the sun. At least one hour of sprinting up hills or running at a park with me. As long as we have instructions we can reinforce training commands and tons of playtime.
About: I've grown up around dogs my entire life and have experience caring for a variety of breeds, including an Akita, an English Bulldog, and currently my 6-year-old French Bulldog. Caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my life, and over the years I've regularly watched and cared for family members' dogs while they're away on vacation. My home is a great fit for dogs who enjoy a calm, relaxed environment. My French Bulldog is very laid-back and spends most of her day lounging, napping, and soaking up the sun. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can run around, play, get their zoomies out, or simply relax and enjoy being outside. I understand that every dog has a different personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they're in my care. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet place to unwind, I'll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and care throughout their stay. I work from home, which allows me to spend most of my day with the dogs in my care. Aside from occasional trips to the gym or running errands, I am home throughout the week and able to provide plenty of supervision, companionship, potty breaks, and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to give dogs the attention and consistency they need to feel comfortable and at home. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I share my home with my boyfriend and our 6-year-old French Bulldog, who is friendly, relaxed, and enjoys spending her days lounging and sunbathing. We have a quiet, low-stress home environment that is ideal for dogs who enjoy both playtime and downtime. Our large backyard provides plenty of space for dogs to run, explore, burn off energy, or simply relax in the sun. I closely supervise outdoor time and always follow each dog's routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions provided by their owners. I understand that every dog is unique, and I work to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while they're away from home. I treat every dog in my care like they're part of the family and provide regular updates and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away.

“Karilou is great with Luna. She is has been very accommodating with changes to my schedule andus a great communicator. I highly recommend her to everyone.”
“I am so thrilled with Sara! My pups are high energy and she really put them to work on their walk and provided so many updates! She went above and beyond just the walk and I know they had a blast. Will be booking her again!!”
“Tara really loves Tam like one of her own pups. He loves her so much and looks forward to their walks together. The best dog sitter/walker I've ever had for my pup. :)”
“Andrew is am amazing dog walker. My terrier mix can be difficult with new people and he took to Andrew immediately. Andrew is dependable, on time and goes the extra mile. Skeeter and I are very grateful!”
“Our pup loved his walks with Savannah! I usually stress abt having anyone care for him in my absence, but she made the whole thing very easy and worry-free for us. We even got little report cards of his walks and activities. We’ll def be using her again! 🤍”
About: I have taken care of dogs eight years of my life! I have also have dogs along the way as i’ve grown up as well as seeing dogs everyday at my old job at Dutch Bros Coffee. Neighbors and friends have trusted me with their animals. I have noticed dogs and cats often feel safe with me quickly and i feel that it’s due to their ability to sense a humans positive energy. My goal is to make your dog or cat feel safe and loved as their owner does and it’s a perk for me because I get to spend time with an animal!! I do school full time but that is fully online so I can be fully available for that. And depending on pay and your schedule, i would be working at another job and would adjust my hours accordingly to fit your needs. I know how scary it can be to trust your animal with a stranger let alone trust that they will be there enough to attend to the dogs/cats needs but that would be my priority and im flexible!!! The services will definitely depend on the owners wishes. I will live with other dogs in my home so it would be a better idea to take care of the animal in the owners home to prevent any conflict with different animals. Again, i’m flexible.

About: Hi pet guardians! Thank you for considering me for your pet care needs. Please take a moment to review my bio and if you think I would be a good fit I look forward to hearing from you. 🙂 _____ About Me _____ I am a certified and insured dog trainer specialized in the area of applied canine ethology (dog socialization, and body language). _____ Experience, Education & Philosophy _____ I've done a lot of work in kennels, shelters and with rescue organizations, rehabilitating dogs with behavioral issues. I have a BSc in Psychology from the University of Central Florida, a certification in Canine Agonistic Behavior from Cambridge University's Ethology Institute, and I'm also a trainer in good standing with the Pet Professionals Guild. I'm a Fear Free practitioner, a positive (R+) trainer, and I adhere to ethical standards for modern, humane, science-based training. I treat every dog like my own, and the way I would hope to be treated if I was in their position: with endless patience, kindness, and sensitivity. All dogs in my care enjoy a managed environment prioritizing safety, comfort, fairness, and fun. Good manners are encouraged through the day with numerous opportunities to earn rewards, and I keep an anxiety-soothing routine with healthy periods of play, rest, mental stimulation, and physical exercise. Shy dogs get all the space they need and can initiate interaction on their terms, clingy dogs get lots of love and attention, and energetic dogs get engaged with lots of games and physical exertion!
About: I have had experience caring for dogs throughout my life. I had two dogs of my own for 17 years, which gave me many years of experience and of course giving them lots of love and attention. I have also spent many years around many of my family members pets and have helped care for them when needed. Also, I have helped neighbors and roommates with their dogs while they were away by making sure they were fed, cared for, and given attention. Most of my experience has come from caring for dogs belonging to people I know, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I understand how important it is for pet owners to feel comfortable knowing their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for while they are away. I work full-time, but I’m available evenings and weekends. I can also provide daily check-ins during the week to make sure your pet is happy, safe, and cared for. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet. I follow your pet’s routine and make sure they have plenty of attention, care, and exercise. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and safe.
“I hired Zane to walk my dog, and I couldn't be happier with the service he provided. Zane was consistently punctual, always arriving on time to pick up and drop off my dog. He also had excellent communication throughout the entire process, providing me with updates on my dog's well-being and behavior during the walk. What really impressed me was the level of detail in Beni’s updates. He would let me know where they walked, how long they walked for, and if my dog had any issues or special needs during the walk. It was clear that he truly cared about my dog's well-being and was attentive to his needs. Overall, I highly recommend Zane as a dog walker. His punctuality, excellent communication, and attention to detail make him a reliable and trustworthy choice for anyone in need of pet care services.”
About: Hi! I just moved to San Diego from OC with my 4 year old Goldendoodle Willow (who I’ve raised since she was 8 weeks old) to get my masters in social work. She loves hanging with new dogs of all sizes! At home, my mom has two dogs and I’ve been dog sitting for years now. I’ve always been an animal lover and truly enjoy caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I’ll treat them like part of the family. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns I’d love to help! Currently, I work from home as a seamstress and I attend school part time- just a two hour class on Tuesday and Thursday evening. I have separation anxiety from my dog Willow, so I never leave her alone longer than I have to. You can count on your pup always having company! My yard is fully fenced in with lots of area to run. Our home is one story and I work from home, so I’ll be with them the whole time!

About: I’ve grown up in a house full of pets—always three or more at a time—so caring for animals is second nature to me. From energetic puppies to slow-moving seniors, tiny lap dogs to big shedders, I’ve handled it all with patience and love. I regularly care for my grandparents’ dogs and have experience with rescue animals who need a little extra gentleness and understanding. Whether your pet is high-energy or low-key, dog or cat, you can trust they’ll be in caring, capable hands with me! I am currently a college student with part-time availability during the school year. I’m happy to be flexible and work with your schedule whenever possible! I care for pets by paying close attention to their unique needs and personalities. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, taken outside regularly, and given playtime when they’re full of energy. I also know when to give space to more independent pets, and when to offer affection and comfort to those who crave it. Whether I’m in my own home or a client’s, I aim to make every pet feel safe, seen, and cared for.
About: No matter what age your pet is, I have some form of experience with them ranging from walking, feeding, bathing, and at times medical care. I've owned both big and small dogs, and my priority is keeping them safe and happy. I'm currently a student so I'll be working around my class schedule. I'm available in the morning M/W, and late-morning and afternoons T/Th/F. I'm up for scheduling on weekends as well! I'll always make sure your home stays clean while taking care of your pet(s). While making sure your pet is taken care of, I'll do my best to make sure they don't get into any trouble and no mess is left behind.
About: My friends and neighbors count on me to check on and sit their animals, and I regularly walk my own pups with their neighborhood furry friends. I grew up with Rottweilers, and have embraced small dogs in recent years. I'm 6ft and 200lbs, and am comfortable with a variety of sizes of dogs. I currently have total flexibility in my schedule and am happy to help with pet care throughout the day. I'm just getting started on Rover, but I've been a dedicated pet parent for almost a decade and love the way it enriches my life. I'd be happy to extend the same level of care and understanding I give to my own pets to yours. I live with my two pups in a small condo complex, where I have an enclosed back patio and immediate access to a very walkable neighborhood. I am comfortable entering friends' homes and allowing the animals to acclimate at their own pace, and am just as happy taking pets for walks as I am keeping them company in their own homes.

“Kylie and Anthony took amazing care of our Adonis! They met his needs and were super accommodating to us as we had unexpected travel delays. Will definitely use their services again. I felt so comfortable leaving our pup in their care. He was taken care of like their own family.”
“This was our second time trusting Holly with our furbaby! She is always on time, communicates right away, and sends several daily updates so we never have to worry. It puts our minds completely at ease when we are missing our pup. Thank you, Holly, for being an awesome dog sitter!”
“We’ve booked Bill and Todd like a dozen times now and they’re so awesome. Highly recommend them, it’s worth the extra couple of dollars for piece of mind that our fur babies are in good hands.”
“My lil Papi enjoyed his time with Adam and Maya. He loves when there’s other dogs around to play with. Their environment is a great space for all the dogs to play in! Appreciate you guys!”
“Cerita went above and beyond the call of duty when caring for blue. She fed him snacks and made sure he was comfortable. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Cerita.”
“Ami is excellent! She has watched our dog a couple times already while we are out of town. Our dog loves her and she’s very responsive and sends regular updates. We appreciate you Ami!”
“Another great stay, LeeLoo gets happy every time she sees their house. Maryjane also does a great job taking care of her and communication and daily updates.”
“My dog, Cosmo, is always thrilled when he realizes we’re going to Jason’s house! It’s obvious that Jason and his family are experienced with dogs and truly love them, plus Jason is a great communicator and I can always count on pics and updates on Cosmo’s antics while I’m away. Thanks for another great stay, Jason!”
“Marissa was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. Our dog is older and needs a little extra patience and understanding, and Marissa handled everything with such kindness and care. It was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about making sure our dog was comfortable and happy. She was also an excellent communicator throughout the entire time we were away. Marissa regularly sent updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and made it easy to see how well our dog was doing. Those little check-ins really meant a lot. We’re incredibly grateful for the attention and compassion she showed, especially with an older dog who needs a bit more gentleness. I would highly recommend Marissa to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and communicative dog sitter.”
“We’ve now completed two trial daycare days and two trial boarding stays with Mark, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Mello has separation anxiety, so we wanted to make sure she truly felt safe and comfortable before her official boarding. Mark has been incredibly patient, thoughtful, and genuinely caring every step of the way. He really goes above and beyond — he even brings Mello along with him when he’s out running quick errands like picking up pizza or McDonald’s, just so she can feel included and never alone. It’s clear he’s not just watching dogs — he’s trying to be their best friend. The biggest and most wonderful surprise: we had arranged trazodone for Mello to help with her anxiety and sleep, but she’s become so comfortable and happy there that she no longer needs it to rest well at night. That means everything to us. We’re heading into her official boarding stay next, and we feel completely confident she’ll have a great time. Thank you, Mark, for caring for Mello like your own!”

“Samantha was amazing with my dog! She sent picture updates daily and provided me with updates while I was away (all without asking which I loved!!) I would 100% recommend using her to watch your pets and will be booking with her again.”
“Mihaela is our favorite sitter we have found on rover. She is so sweet and takes such good care of our Ollie. She also sends the best updates. Thank you for all that you do Mihaela!”
“Joe took great care of my dog, Shamrock! He has a sweet dog named Callie. Callie and Shamrock became fast friends. Joe’s home is lovely and offers a secure yard for the pups to play. I highly recommend boarding your pup with Joe and Callie.”
