“Ghazel is the best! Having just moved to the state, I was nervous about finding someone to watch my sweet boy when I travel. From our initial meet and greet to his overnight stay, Ghazel put my mind completely at ease. Sam was so happy and felt right at home. I truly appreciated all the cute photos she sent, which allowed me to focus on my trip without worrying. I definitely recommend her services and look forward to booking again in the future!”
“Thank you so much, Leah and Scott, for taking great care of our babies! We really appreciate you accommodating us with dropping our boys off so early in the morning as well as picking them up so early the next day. We could tell that they had a great time.”
“Olga and Boris took such great care of my dog while I was away. I honestly can’t find enough words to thank them for how well they cared for him. It was clear that they followed all the instructions I gave them, and my dog looked so happy, comfortable, and well taken care of when I picked him up. You could also tell that he really grew attached to them, and that they grew attached to him as well. That truly says a lot about what wonderful and caring people they are. I’m so grateful I found them, and I would absolutely use their services again. They did an amazing job, and I highly recommend Olga and Boris!”
“Yan took really good care of our cat. She was able to do pick up and drop off, and was flexible with the timings. I really appreciate that she sent daily updates and photos, which allowed us to have peace of mind while we were away. Will book again!”
“My foster dog Baby had a wonderful stay with Tanya and her daughter. Their home is basically doggy heaven, and Baby enjoyed the huge lawn and tons of love and care accordingly. Baby looks forward to her next visit!”
“Lana took care of Sandy with so much love and fun that Sandy doesn’t even look back at us when we drop her off. Lana found out about early signs of ear infections so that was super helpful as well.”
“This is the first time we've left our dogs with a sitter. While their behavior was far from perfect, Dawn was the absolute best sitter that we could ask for! She sent amazing videos/pictures to accompany her frequent updates. I couldn't recommend Dawn more highly, and I'm not sure how I can ever entrust my dog's care to anyone else!”
About: I provide active, attentive, and structured care for both dogs and cats, with a focus on exercise, comfort, and individualized attention. For dogs, I’m especially a great fit for higher-energy pets that need more activity and engagement. I provide: • 3 daily walks (typically 20 mins to 1 hour each depending on energy level and needs) • A large fenced yard for safe outdoor play and exercise • Plenty of interaction, playtime, and supervision throughout the day I also have extensive experience caring for cats and have raised 5+ cats over the years. For cats that prefer quieter environments or separation from dogs, I have a dedicated empty bedroom available to help them feel safe and relaxed. Additional care I can provide includes: • Brushing and de-shedding • Nail trimming • Basic dental cleaning (if tolerated) • Frequent updates with photos/videos I focus on quality care and take a limited number of pets so I can give each one more attention and a calmer experience. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate morning, or evening visits. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can adjust to your pet’s routine to ensure consistency and comfort. I prioritize reliability and will make sure your pet is cared for on time every visit. I provide a calm, clean, and safe environment and always follow your care instructions closely. I understand that pets can be sensitive to changes, so I focus on minimizing stress and maintaining their normal routine. I’m experienced with handling pets gently, including grooming (brushing, nail trimming, and basic hygiene if your pets allows). I pay close attention to their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I will keep you updated with photos and notes after each visit/activity. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and trust are always my top priorities.
“Michael and Kris were awesome. Vito came back home happy. Vito is a reactive dog and we're always anxious dropping him off at a new sitter. But Michael and Kris made sure we went about our day stress free and Vito enjoys his stay.”
“Rachel, CW and their girls were great with our dog. They sent daily detailed updates and lots of really great photos. They were quick to respond to any questions. I know our dog was well cared for- he went on lots of walks, got lots of belly rubs, and played tug. Would definitely recommend.”
“Fantastic experience boarding with Shavonne! Great personality, optimal communication,, and Domino loved his stay! Will definitely reach out for more dog sitting availability from Shavonne each time I’m in need!”
“It’s was like home away from home for Skye! She was pampered and very well taken care of by Deepthi and family. Her dog Caesar is such a darling too!!! Would highly recommend Deepthi to take care of your fur babies”
“Jocelyn was great with Winnie and had excellent/prompt communication! We received lots of detailed updates, photos, and videos that put our mind at ease. We would trust her with Winnie any time!”
“We just picked up our 10 years old border collie Lucky after a 6 day 5 nights stay. It is a pity the highest rating is only 5 stars, to Lucky, Juanyi's service is 10 stars. My border collie does not like strangers in the beginning, but he allows Juanyi pet him in just a few hours. I could see from many pictures and videoes that my boy enjoys the friendship from Kaka, Panda and other lovely guests, also enjoys the love from Juanyi. I feel my boy is having a great vacation of his own too. I always hesitate to sign up family vacation because find a reliable dog sitter is often a difficult task, the last 3 dog sitter we used were moved or no longer offer service. I am glad we found Juanyi and the experience is so great. I read every review when i look for any kind of service, and by the time we book the service, there was only one review, to be honest i was a bit uncertain. During the met and greet, we walked around the neighborhood together, I was so glad Lucky quickly developped friendship with Kaka and Panda, and the drop off session was also great, which allow me to join the family vacation. We will definitely book with Juanyi again for our future vacations, and recommend to every pet parents, my Lucky was treated like Juanyi's own, yours will too!❤️”
“Ivana & Isabelle were great with Kulfi! Ivana sent us regular updates of how Kulfi was doing and was very easy to reach. Kulfi was comfortable and happy with them, despite it being her first overnight stay at their place.They were very mindful of her routine and went the extra mile to ensure her comfort.We really appreciate how well they have taken care of Kulfi and would love to have Kulfi stay with them again.”
About: I’m not just a sitter. I’m a dog lover who treats every pup like family. I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life. From puppyhood to senior pups, I have a lot of experience tailoring my care according to each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort zone.Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or couch snuggles, I focus on creating routines that keep dogs engaged, healthy, and stress free. Over the years, I’ve gained experience helping dogs with separation anxiety, minor reactivity, and special medical needs (limited to administering oral and injectable medications). Open communication with pet parents is a priority for me. I provide frequent updates, including photos and videos, so you can see how your dog is doing. In order to dedicate myself completely to your pet’s care, play, and comfort, I only accept one dog at a time. However, for everyone’s comfort, I request that visiting pups get along with other dogs since my own dog, Bentley, will be part of their visit. As a full-time homemaker and dog mom, I am home all day and able to provide consistent, attentive care. Your dog will have my full attention for walks, playtime, rest, and anything else they need throughout the day. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I love taking dogs to trails and parks nearby for exercise, fun, and potty breaks. They can relax in a crate or snuggle with me on the couch/bed. Fresh filtered water is always available and treats are given as allowed.
“Hachi enjoyed his stay so much with Mochi and his family. Sherry has been very considering and patient with Hachi given Hachi tended to be naughty sometimes. They also offered healthy snacks to the two and they liked it so much! They shared photos when they walked Hachi and a couple of times during the day for their play time. They are also responsive to our messages and never let us worry about Hachi.”
“Michelle and her family were wonderful sitters for our frenchie, Odie! They were highly attentive, communicative, and so easy to work with, which made the entire experience stress-free. As a Frenchie, Odie is very sensitive to heat in the summer, and they kept their home cool and comfortable for him. Frenchies are also extremely affectionate, and Michelle’s family made sure Odie felt loved every step of the way. Most importantly, they made him feel right at home and truly part of their family. We couldn’t have asked for better care and would absolutely recommend them!”
“Wow, what a fantastic experience! Sharry is an incredible host and is everything you'd want in a dog host. She was a great communicator, sent tons of pics and videos, was very attentive to my dogs, brushed them, and they were so happy and tired when we picked them up!”
“A+ Service. Amber was very responsive throughout the entire process. Highly recommend her and I will 100% use her services again. My dog looked very happy in all of the pictures that she sent. Thank you!”

“Zhengjun took excellent care of our cats! Our feline babies were well fed and played with, and we got a lot of pictures and videos from Zhengjun. We would love to have Zhengjun take care of our cats again!”
About: My love for cats began in childhood when I spent time with the cats at my grandmother’s home, many of whom loved curling up on my lap for naps. Those early experiences taught me how special each cat’s personality can be — from affectionate cats who seek attention to more independent ones who prefer quiet companionship. I’m new to Rover, but I truly enjoy earning a cat’s trust and getting to know them at their own pace. I know many cats feel more comfortable with a calm and patient approach, especially when their family is away. I believe every cat deserves gentle, patient care, and I’ll follow your instructions carefully, pay attention to your cat’s routine and preferences, and share photos and updates so you can feel connected while you’re away.
“Laurelle was fantastic. Laurelle visited and took care of our cat while we were out of town and made sure we were at ease about leaving our cat alone. She was extremely communicative, providing clear photos and descriptions of her visits with our kitty. Even though our cat hides from strangers, Laurelle made sure to check he was eating and drinking water. I recommend her highly and hope to book her again the next time we have to leave one of our animals at home.”
“Suzanne was awesome, very patient with my shy and moody kitty who was hiding under the bed most of the time. She is very professional, came on time and left detailed message after each visit, along with photos. Got all my cat’s things refreshed before I got home from a long trip so I didn’t have to worry about it that night. Highly recommend her!”
“Conner was great! Reliable, communicative, and he asked all the right questions. He even visited our home an extra time to bring in a perishable package that we'd forgotten was going to be delivered. His daily reports on how our cats were doing were excellent--just the right amount of detail. I'd recommend him without reservation.”
“Mary was an excellent caretaker of our kitties while we were out for an extended weekend. She was very communicative, thorough, and followed the care instructions that we laid out. We appreciated the photos she sent us during her visit and will be booking with her again in the future. We would recommend Mary to other pet owners!”
About: I’m a proud cat parent to two healthy cats—a 5-year-old female and a 1-year-old male—so daily care like feeding, playtime, nail trimming, eye/ear cleaning, litter box maintenance, and even deworming are all part of my routine. I also have hands-on experience caring for a senior cat with corneal ulcer, which required detailed and consistent medication. This taught me to be patient, careful, and strict about hygiene, including daily disinfection of the living environment to keep cats safe and comfortable. If your cat needs isolation or a quiet space, I can provide a separate bedroom to make sure they feel secure. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, medical care experience, and genuine love for treating every cat like family.
“Sarah was absolutely wonderful with Gizmo and Luna! She gave Gizmo his medication each morning and night, made sure Luna was fed, and took such great care of both of them. She also scooped both litter boxes and was incredibly flexible and accommodating when our schedule changed. I especially loved how detailed her notes were after each visit, and the photos she sent of my fur babies were such a sweet touch! It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were happy, cared for, and in such good hands. Sarah was reliable, thoughtful, and clearly went above and beyond. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive pet sitter!”
About: We adopted a kitty 3 years ago and absolutely adore her! I have learned cat language LOL! I have experience with play for bonding and reducing boredom. I know where the sweet spots are for scratches. And I know when they just want to be left alone. I approach calmly and with gentleness to reduce skittish behavior or anxiety. I love feeding and giving treats to gain trust and I don't mind cleaning litter boxes.
“Anke was an amazing cat sitter, and was wonderful with our three cats and condo! We found Anke through the Rover app and booked after a meet and greet. Our cats are a little tricky- we have some health issues and behavioral problems, but Anke was an absolute pro and made us feel at ease. She sent lots of updates and was very thoughtful and supportive. We will be booking with Anke in the future, thank you Anke!”
“Joleen is such a sweet human and pet sitter! She goes above and beyond to care for the animals she watches over. She swept up litter and cleaned out Jack’s wet food dish everyday! She played with Jack and was respectful in our home! Jack can throw a fit and poop outside his box when we leave and she was so sweet in taking care of his temper tantrums! She was thoughtful enough to bring in our Amazon packages as well! Defintiely would rebook with Joleen”
About: I’ve had the joy of seeing my own dogs and cats grow from tiny puppies and kittens into beloved seniors (16+ years old), caring for them through every stage of their lives. I understand how much love and importance they hold in our families, and how deeply we cherish their companionship. What sets me apart is the heartfelt care and experience I bring. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m comfortable with everything from energetic walks to gentle senior care. Whether it’s giving medications, providing extra patience with older pets, or simply showering them with love and attention, I treat every pet as if they were my own. It’s a true joy and privilege for me to look after these little four-legged angels while giving peace of mind to their families.
About: I love cats just as much as I do dogs, and I absolutely cherish any time I get to spend with them! Throughout my life, I have owned one to two cats at a time, and I am currently the proud owner of two 1-year-old rescued tuxedo cats. Having been a cat sitter on multiple occasions, I understand that every feline has a unique personality. I consider myself an expert at kitty playtime, knowing exactly how to keep energetic cats engaged, as well as finding those perfect sweet spots when it is time for pets and scratches. I am also incredibly patient with shy or senior cats who may need a little extra time and space to get used to me. Your cats will be treated with the same love, respect, and patience as my own rescued fur babies!
“She’s absolutely awesome and honestly has some kind of magic with pets! My cat warmed up to her so quickly and clearly felt comfortable and happy around her. Couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Kiana was amazing checking up on our 11 month old kitty while we were away for 5 days! We did a meet and greet before the stay and she was proactive communicating before, during, and after. She took lots of photos during each check-in and let us know how Meadow was doing each day. She was meticulous in following our care instructions and clarified if anything was unclear. On the last day, she noticed that our litter trash bags were running low and even offered to pick up a refill, which was so kind of her. We would definitely trust Kiana with our pets & home in the future!”
“We went on vacation for a week and a half, and Gabriela stayed overnight with our 2 cats during that time. She did a great job taking care of them and giving us updates. Our cats take a little bit to warm up to people, but they warmed up to Gabriela pretty quickly and seemed to enjoy her company. She made sure to ask clarifying questions for anything she wasn’t sure about, and the house was very clean when we returned home. Would absolutely recommend her overnight services.”
About: I’ve lived with cats my entire life, so I have experience feeding them, cleaning after them and administering medication when needed. Now that I’m a college student away from my car babies I take any opportunity to be around cats.

“Grace is such an attentive and caring daycare provider for my dog. She's very communicative and made sure Arya was well cared for. Thank you so much for all you do!”

“Catherine so great sitter, she dedicated herself today to taking care Colby, who is only 6 month puppy. She kept great updates on Colby, and also gave us quiet advice on training. I look forward to using her service soon.”
“Our dog Winnie took to Ruochen immediately. Winnie is normally hesitant around men, however Ruochen's confidence and warmth won over our American Bully. Ruochen is prompt, trustworthy, communicates well and sends pictures. We will definitely use him again.”
“Ashita was amazing with our boys and I can’t recommend her enough! She took such wonderful care of them for the day in her home and made them feel so comfortable. It was their first time meeting her and our older dog gets a little anxious, but within minutes he was running around her backyard and was so happy. You can tell she loves animals and was so caring and loving toward them. They can’t wait to go back again tomorrow and see her and play with her two dogs and the other guest doggies. Thanks again Ashita for taking such good care of our little guys and helped us have a worry free day. 😊”
“Wanyi is an excellent dog sitter! She took very good care of my Shiba and sent me tons of photos and videos. She is a loving host and her dog was also a good company.”
“We had a wonderful experience. They took such good care of my dog—very attentive, patient, and loving. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Otto looked happy, well-exercised, and completely comfortable when I picked him up. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Emma took wonderful care of Pepper while we were away! She kept us updated, made sure he was comfortable, and treated him like her own. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, which gave us so much peace of mind. We would absolutely trust Emma with Pepper again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
About: Hi! I grew up with a sweet Golden Retriever, and while I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’ve been lucky to host and care for many different breeds and personalities over the years. From playful puppies to gentle giants, I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique quirks and making them feel right at home. Because I’m not currently working, I can dedicate plenty of time, attention, and love to your furry friend. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I make sure every pup gets the care they deserve. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in good hands, so I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own — with patience, safety, and affection every step of the way. Looking forward to welcoming your four-legged family member! 🐶❤️ I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time to give your pet my full attention. I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day, ensuring they’re well cared for and never lonely. Weekdays and weekends works. We have an independent house and a small patio that is walled. We also have a gated dog park in our community that is private to only residents. We have ring cameras outside the house and also doggy cam inside the house to always a watch on the pet we host and take care.
About: My journey started 8 years ago, when I adopted my Black Lab Bill. When we started training together, and the relationship we had grew to amazing levels. I realized the bond that our pups share with us, and the benefits of caring for these amazing friends. I can't wait to invite your pup into our caring, patient and happy family. I'm available most times, and days. Especially during the evenings, holiday's, and the summer time. If local, I can be available withing the hour. Thanks. My home is of course pet friendly. All couches and beds are free for the pet to use. I work from home, so I will take 3-4 walks a day, and will always be around to supervise.
“Flora took such great care of Benji! It was a daycare stay, and I could tell how much Benji loves her. Benji will definitely be staying with Flora again this summer!”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Akansha for our dog Tsumugi’s very first day at daycare. Since it was Tsumugi’s first time, she was a bit nervous, but Akansha went above and beyond to help her feel relaxed and comfortable. She also sent us lots of photos and video throughout the day, which made us feel reassured and happy to see how Tsumugi was doing. We truly appreciated her thoughtful care and communication. We’re definitely planning to book with her again!”
“Ahiram took very good care of my dog & sent updates & photos. I was nervous at first because this is my first time leaving him with someone else but the updates kept me at peace. He was in very good spirits when I picked him up. Left my dog in great paws. 🐾”

“Maria’s love for dogs is undeniable! I am grateful for her dedication to my dog and overall professionalism - always punctual, communicative, and prioritising my dog’s wellbeing. My dog warmed up to her very quickly the first time they met and I am finally confident in leaving him alone with a walker. We look forward to having Maria as a regular walker for him.”
About: Hi! My name is Angelina, and I've been around dogs my entire life. Growing up with dogs has taught me how important they are as members of the family, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I currently have two dogs of my own. My first dog is 7 years old and truly means the world to me. My second dog is a Shih Tzu (3years old) who originally belonged to my grandma, and he's become a very loved part of our family. Caring for both of them has given me experience with different personalities, routines, and needs. In addition to my personal experience, I attended grooming school and became a certified dog groomer. My training has taught me how to safely handle dogs, recognize their individual needs, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I'm patient, dependable, and attentive, and l understand that every dog is unique. Whether your pup enjoys a brisk walk, a leisurely stroll, or extra love and attention, I'I make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I'll treat your dog like one of my own and provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while they're with me. I would love the opportunity to meet your furry family member and provide them with the same love, care, and attention I give my own Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because I work part-time, which allows me to dedicate more of my time and attention to caring for pets. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending my free time with dogs, taking them on walks, giving them plenty of exercise and attention, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. Although I live in an apartment, I have a private patio area and plenty of nearby outdoor spaces where I can take dogs out frequently for fresh air, potty breaks, and enjoyable walks. I make sure pets are supervised, kept secure, and given plenty of attention throughout their stay. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, so I do my best to follow their normal schedule, including feeding, bathroom breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they are in my care. 🐾❤️

About: Hi everyone! I had a cat named Mountain for 17 years and I currently have a dog named Kiwi. I’m used to taking care of both pets and would love to take care of yours as well! I currently work full time in the bay area but would love to spend time with your pets before or after work. Reach out and we can talk more! I would like working with people who are okay with me entering their homes to feed their pets. I’ll take those with dogs out to use the restroom and go on a little walk before heading home.
“Pearl always take the time to get to know my dog's specific needs and preferences, and it’s clear that she genuinely loves animals. The walks are always on time, and she provides detailed updates afterward, including photos and notes about the walk. My dog comes back exhausted (in the best way) and happy every time. I also appreciate how Pearl communicates. She is highly relatable and reliable.”
About: I truly love animals and your fur baby's well-being is my top priority! I've had dogs my entire life and have raised them from puppies to seniors. I trained my puppies with patience, consistency and positive reinforcement and cared for them as seniors with gentleness and compassion. I am not afraid to clean up accidents or messes (I've done it all, lol) and I can administer topical and oral medications. I have also cared for other types of animals such as reptiles, amphibians, birds, fish and rodents should you need care for them as well. Please choose the cat care services for other animals. Please no aggressive or poisonous animals. I work part-time from home so I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies.

Your pets will be in good hands.
“Kenny is hands-down the absolute best! I just moved and was very hesitant to allow a stranger to walk my dog, but Kenny not only assured me, but also Alpha (my doggo)!. He is super friendly, and also very professional. He keeps me updated with every move, and sends me pictures. I never have to feel worried about Alpha when she's with me (and now, she gets super excited when he comes around). If you have any doubts about Kenny - please don't! He is truly an angel!!!”

About: Growing up, I used to always come home with stray dogs and insisted we must keep them since they didn’t have a home. I have loved cats and dogs all my life, I would volunteer myself to walk all the animals in my family when I’d go over. My experience comes from having my own, having them in our family and volunteering to watching them while the grown ups go out and have fun. I love our furry friends! I’ve cared for a dwarf bunny, a dog and cats recently and I enjoyed getting to know them and their unique behaviors. Seeing how much I enjoyed it made me realize I could do this on a daily basis given how much free time I have. About 4 years ago I started feeding stray cats around my old neighborhood, the colony was huge but I felt the need to help them. The more I fed them and gained their trust the more I felt the need to help. I found a woman on IG and asked her if she could help me fix them all and find them homes. She was able to trap and fix them, there was around 96 cats total & we were able to successfully rehome 30 of them! One of them owned me and I couldn’t see him go so I kept Spot. I love cats and dogs and find them to be what every human needs in their life. I enjoy being home and I love going on walks as a form of self care. Pet care fits perfectly in my weekly routine because my main focus is to finish school at this time. I wouldn’t mind the company! I attend to their needs as I come across them and follow their own schedules on a timely manner. I ensure that I provide them with clean water and food daily while also giving them the proper exercise and attention on the basis of their schedule. Please note I only crate them when requested by owner and if it’s provided. I’m currently studying and doing Rover full time, which allows me to offer flexible care for your pet. I’m available for services every day of the week. Looking forward to providing a comfortable and loving experience for your furry friend! When caring for your pet, safety, trust, and a nurturing environment are my top priorities. I stay home to keep your fur baby company throughout the day, ensuring they feel safe and secure while you're away. I’m happy to follow their specific routines, from feeding and playtime to rest, so they have the consistency they’re used to. Crating is available if and when it suits your pet’s comfort and needs, and I make every effort to create a warm, welcoming environment where they can feel completely at ease. Please feel free to share any special instructions or preferences—I’m here to provide the best care for your furry friend!
“Omigosh, let me just say. I absolutely LOVED Laurelle! She met us for a meet and greet the weekend right before our trip and she was so loving and caring with our fur babies. I know that I am a helicopter paw parent, and I felt so comfortable and safe having her stop by and take our dogs for walks. I mentioned my fear of Minnie getting lose (she’s a crazy puppy) and she assured me she would be safe. And she went the extra mile to inform me that she had her heavy duty waist harness so there’s absolute no way she could get lose. She does a BEAUTIFUL, Summary of the walks and adds lots of pictures. She is my GO TO!”

“Ghazel is the best! Having just moved to the state, I was nervous about finding someone to watch my sweet boy when I travel. From our initial meet and greet to his overnight stay, Ghazel put my mind completely at ease. Sam was so happy and felt right at home. I truly appreciated all the cute photos she sent, which allowed me to focus on my trip without worrying. I definitely recommend her services and look forward to booking again in the future!”
“My foster dog Baby had a wonderful stay with Tanya and her daughter. Their home is basically doggy heaven, and Baby enjoyed the huge lawn and tons of love and care accordingly. Baby looks forward to her next visit!”
About: Dogs have been a big part of my life for over a decade and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I bring my passion and experience together to create a cozy haven for your pets - a home filled with love, playfulness, endless cuddles and plenty of attention. I take the time to get to know each pup’s personality, routine and needs. I’m also quick to respond and love keeping pet parents updated with regular photos, so you always know your pup is comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home and am available to attend the needs of your pets. Rest be assured that your dog’s time will be filled with active walks, fun play, regular feeding to ensure a balanced routine. I plan to provide the same personalized care your pets are used to at home, so they feel comfortable and don’t feel too far away from home. I’ll follow their usual routines as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide.
“Christopher and his wife took such great care of our dog Zoey while we were away. We got text updates on how she was doing and photos and videos too! It helped us feel at ease knowing she was well taken care of. The meet and greet before hand helped to confirm our decision to book with them and we are so glad we did!”
“Rachel, CW and their girls were great with our dog. They sent daily detailed updates and lots of really great photos. They were quick to respond to any questions. I know our dog was well cared for- he went on lots of walks, got lots of belly rubs, and played tug. Would definitely recommend.”
“This was my second time booking with Ashita and my dog was very happy to be back. Even when my dog decided to be a bad house guest, Ashita was quick to keep me updated on the behavior which is so important and very appreciated.”
About: I’m not just a sitter. I’m a dog lover who treats every pup like family. I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life. From puppyhood to senior pups, I have a lot of experience tailoring my care according to each dog’s personality, needs, and comfort zone.Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or couch snuggles, I focus on creating routines that keep dogs engaged, healthy, and stress free. Over the years, I’ve gained experience helping dogs with separation anxiety, minor reactivity, and special medical needs (limited to administering oral and injectable medications). Open communication with pet parents is a priority for me. I provide frequent updates, including photos and videos, so you can see how your dog is doing. In order to dedicate myself completely to your pet’s care, play, and comfort, I only accept one dog at a time. However, for everyone’s comfort, I request that visiting pups get along with other dogs since my own dog, Bentley, will be part of their visit. As a full-time homemaker and dog mom, I am home all day and able to provide consistent, attentive care. Your dog will have my full attention for walks, playtime, rest, and anything else they need throughout the day. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I love taking dogs to trails and parks nearby for exercise, fun, and potty breaks. They can relax in a crate or snuggle with me on the couch/bed. Fresh filtered water is always available and treats are given as allowed.
“**⭐️ 5 Stars – Amazing Dog Sitter! ⭐️** I couldn’t be happier with the care Mary provided for Kajree! From the very beginning, Mary was attentive, loving, and truly went above and beyond to make sure my pup felt safe, happy, and well-cared for. Almost daily updates (including adorable photos and videos!) gave me so much peace of mind while I was away, and it was clear Kajree had a great time with them. Whether it was walks, being goofy, or being cared for as a senior dog, Mary and her kids treated my dog like their family. I highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring sitter. Thank you for everything—we’ll definitely be booking again! 🐾❤️”
“Ettamae had an incredible time staying with Olga. We received periodic updates and pictures. We will definitely be a returning customer. It’s really nice to know Ettamae has a caring sitter she really bonded with.”
“Megan took wonderful care of my puppy Henry while he was boarded with her. She made sure he got plenty of exercise and lots of social time with other dogs, including puppies, which was perfect for him. She even took care of some grooming, which was a nice bonus. Henry came home happy and well cared for. I'll definitely be bringing him back to Megan soon. Highly recommend!”
“Ezra took great care of our dog, Hayes! We were hesitant to use someone new, especially over the holidays but she gave us the peace of mind we needed. She gave us regular updates about him every day and let us know how he was doing with the other dogs. Hayes had such a great stay and made new friends! We will definitely be booking with Ezra again in the future!”
“John did a great job watching our 10-month-old puppy for a week. He was very accommodating and responsive throughout puppy-sitting. We were a little apprehensive how our pup would handle his first 4th of July, but John was wonderful with him.”
“Madhumita was amazing! She was able to accommodate a very last minute request. Her home is very nice and well appointed for dogs. She communicated well, was friendly and her dog got along really well with ours. I received updates throughout his stay. She took great care of my dog and I wasn’t worried at all. Highly recommend!!”
“Yesenia was a great sitter for our husky!! She kept us posted with very sweet videos! My 5 year old son really missed our dog while we were on vacation so he especially loved to see what she was up to! Our dog looked very happy and cozy during her stay. She didn't want to get in the car to leave which is so not like her, haha!”
“Sarah took to Jennifer immediately. Jennifer would send daily updates for Sarah with photos and it is a great comfort to see Sarah all settled in. Jennifer has taken such good care of Sarah that I am confident that I will book her for dog sitting service again. Thank you, Jennifer!”
“Incredible Experience with Yifei! Highly Recommend! This was my first time using Rover, and I was honestly a bit nervous, especially since it was all very last-minute. But Yifei completely put my mind at ease. From the very first moment, she was incredibly kind, patient, and flexible—she was able to fit us in and even allowed us to pick up our puppy, Katsu, in the early morning, which was a huge help! Yifei kept me updated with pictures throughout the day, and it was so comforting to see Katsu so happy and engaged. Usually, my puppy is a bit hesitant with new people, but when he first met Yifei, he didn’t even look back at me! I could tell he felt completely safe and at ease with her, and I think he was probably having so much fun with the other dogs that he didn’t want to come home! On top of all that, Yifei was super easy to communicate with when Katsu accidentally left behind some of his things. She was quick to respond and made the whole process so smooth. I cannot recommend Yifei enough! She’s an absolute gem, and I felt 100% confident that my 10-month-old puppy was in great hands. If you're looking for a kind, reliable, and wonderful sitter, look no further—Yifei is your person!”
“Taylor took such good care of our Kuma over the long weekend! We got lots of photos and updates of their adventures, and Kuma seemed super comfortable and happy the whole time. We'll definitely be reaching out to Taylor again for future boarding!”
“Alice is thoughtful, communicative, and responsible. We received lots of timely pictures and updates from her through the Rover platform. Most importantly, our doggy had a great time during the week she was boarding with her. We're very happy with our decision to go with Alice to watch our beloved golden retriever!”
