“Nicole was great! Our first time leaving our 3 month old pup during a multi-day trip. We got multiple pics and updates on how he was doing which helped put us all at ease. Nicole was fast at replying whenever we had questions. We'll be sure to use her services again in thr future.”
“Luka thoroughly enjoyed his stay with Melissa and her well behaved puppies. She sent us photos and videos every day without asking and kept us updated on all the fun he had. We will definitely be using her services again in the future”
“Bruno had an amazing time with Laura and Brian: they took great care of our family pup. They constantly sent pics and updates. It was Bruno’s first time being away from home; and he did so good. We are considering doggy day care with Laura and Brian because of how great Bruno did. It’s wonderful to come across folks who’ve spent time with different breeds of dogs so they know what to expect. Yet also, have the understanding that every dog is different. Thanks so much!!!!!!”
“Tiffany was so welcoming and kind. We left our dog with Tiffany for 2 nights. She would send photos throughout the day, & he looked so calm and comfortable. I was so happy to see my dog so loved. I could tell how well my dog was taken care of and I will definitely be reaching out to Tiffany again.”
“Frisco always has a great time. He loves Susana and her family. He has so much fun playing with all the other doggies. So glad to have found someone so trustworthy to take care of my baby. I appreciate you!”
“this is the third time tina watched our dog rocky and as usual, she took really good care of him!!! she is such a sweetheart!! tina makes sure rocky gets a lot of exercise and activities (puzzles, hide&seek games, fetch, etc). i can’t thank her enough for everything she did for my rocky!!!! i highly recommend her if you need a trustworthy sitter!”
“We left our Shiba Inu over a long weekend with Stacey. Our experience was wonderful. The house is great and Stacey’s whole family was so accommodating and loving to our dog. The back yard is large and all fenced in, and our dog was allowed both in and outside. Stacey spent lots of time playing fetch with our dog, taught her a new trick ( to lay down), and spent lots of time giving her pets and cuddles. This was the first time we have ever left our dog and we were nervous but Stacey sent us so many pictures and updates, and she really took care to make us feel at ease. We were able to have a nice vacation away and our dog was safe and loved while we were gone. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!”
“Elizabeth was kind and professional. She kept us updated on Akira's progress during the three days she had her via pictures and text messages. She provided a loving family environment for Akira.”
“Wonderful, easy experience, great communication, loved all the photos Ilona sent me everyday and Teddy was very happy and at ease in her home. I found my forever dog sitter on Rover .. I’ll definitely be booking with Ilona again.”
“Tania and her daughter are wonderful and took such good care of my dog. Due to my circumstances I will be bringing my dog over pretty regularly and knowing that he felt comfortable and that Tania and her daughter enjoyed him means the world to me! It is so hard to leave your pet but knowing your pet is in good hands is the best. Thank you both!!”
“Coco was in excellent hands! We received constant updates, photos, and videos throughout our trip, which gave us total peace of mind. The communication was fantastic. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for attentive and reliable care for their pet. They definitely gained us as a customer. Until next time!”
“Monica took really good care of my fur baby for 12 days. She is very good at communicating and sent me pictures throughout my trip. I was at peace and was able to enjoy my vacation worry free. Myles seemed to really enjoy himself and had lots of play time. I would definitely recommend Monica she is definitely the sitter. Myles will definitely be back !”

“Amanda is awesome! She was very attentive and followed instructions precisely. She was also great at communicating every detail and asked for guidance whenever she faced an issue we hadn't addressed. I highly recommend her, and will use her again!”
“Cant believe I forgot to leave a review. Liseth has been taking care of my cats and kitten for a few years when I go out of town for a few weeks twice a year. I had never used a pet sitter through a service. She’s been wonderful, responsible, both my cats like her (they usually hide around new people but they come out when they see Liseth). She puts me at ease knowing my cats are in good hands. I highly recommend her.”
“Perla was a fantastic pet sitter. I was gone for a week, and she took excellent care of my four cats. The communication was great, and she kept me posted on the progress of my kitties daily. I highly recommend her services to anyone who needs pet care.”
“Alaina is an excellent pet sitter who will take great care of your furry family members. From the moment I met her, I was impressed by her warmth and friendliness. She did a wonderful job with my sweet kitty! While I was away for the weekend, she took fantastic care of my cat and sent me numerous photos and updates. When I returned home, my cat was relaxed and content, which truly speaks to Alaina's exceptional pet-sitting skills. I'll definitely be using Alaina in the future!”
About: Hi there! My name is Lukasz Paul and any dog I’ve met I have loved like my own! Growing up, I had my German Shepherd, and my Belgian Malinois. I also helped my parents with their pet sitting business in Santa Clarita. From pet sitting, long or short walks, boarding and of course taking care of our own pets, I’ve got experience with it all! I’ve also administered medication to dogs of all ages and sizes. Our pups were rescued as well, with little training, so teaching them tricks was always a fun time! I’m working, so the days I added that are available, have to be either requested Later at night or very early in the morning. My work schedule does change week by week. So it does depend on my schedule on when I am available. My main job, at home is to show love and appreciation towards my dog. When she does something good, I treat her. Doing this will help her to understand me better.
“Trinity was thoughtful, considerate of our home and dogs, and did an absolutely wonderful job communicating and meeting our needs as dog owners while also nurturing our pups. She truly went above and beyond by leaving our home looking neat and giving our dogs excellent care. I especially appreciated all the photos and videos she shared. We have officially found our dog sitter!”
“Jennifer did a great job taking care of my cat, Momo. Always on time and sent pictures throughout. Finding a new sitter after moving can be a little worrying but Jennifer was super kind and personable which eased any concerns. Will be rebooking soon. Thank you!”
“Awesome dog sitter. Very nice, aware, attentative. Go over and beyond to assure you your dogs will be taken care of. She not only dropped in but also walked my three dogs at one time and followed all of my instructions for eating schedules etc.”
“Alyssa was wonderful taking care of our Cat, Jasper. Would absolutely recommend her. She is very kind and attentive to Jaspers needs. Was so happy to be able to leave him in good hands to go on vacation!”
“She was absolutely wonderful. Very sweet, and tentative to our animals. We feel that she went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend her services. And we will definitely use her in the future.”
“Kristine is very professional working with our dog. She was gentle and careing and our dog became very close to her. Kristine was always attentive and on time. She was a blessing when I had an extended business meeting she was able to return and cover for me. In the future I would recommend hiring her again.thank you.”
About: I have fostered and housed many kitties in need and found them great homes, I’m a kitty girl and I love them so much! I have 3 kitties of my own and I’m always the number one person my family and friends will call to come baby sit their animals ever since I was 15 :)
About: What sets me apart is real, hands-on experience with dogs that many sitters never encounter. I own Apollo, a pit-mix with high reactivity, and have worked through his training alongside a professional trainer as well as through my own dedicated research and practice. That process taught me how to read canine body language, manage triggers, and stay calm and consistent under pressure; skills that directly benefit any dog in my care. I also share my home with Thalia, a high-energy husky, so I know exactly what it takes to keep a high-drive dog mentally and physically stimulated. Beyond my own pets, I've built real experience pet sitting dogs and cats for family and friends, sometimes for days or weeks at a time, handling daily visits and routines solo. I'm comfortable with dogs, cats, and other pets, and I bring the same patience and attentiveness to every animal regardless of size, breed, or temperament. Pet care has always been a natural part of my life. I grew up with pets and currently have my own, so caring for animals isn't just a service I offer, it's something I genuinely love. As an online student working toward my Bachelor's degree, I have the flexibility to be present throughout the day, whether that's a midmorning walk, an afternoon drop-in, or a multi-day house sit. Because my coursework is self-paced, your pet always gets my full focus. I structure my day around the pets in my care, not the other way around. My priority is keeping your pet's world as normal as possible while you're away. I follow their established routine closely: feeding times, walk schedules, and any specific habits you share with me. Consistency is what keeps animals calm and comfortable. Every visit includes food, water, exercise, and real quality time, not just a quick check-in. You can expect photo updates after every visit so you always know how things are going. I'm comfortable with dogs, cats, and other pets, and I adapt to what each individual animal needs.
“Shannon took wonderful care of our cats while we were out of town. She was kind and calm, which made them feel comfortable immediately. Especially the more nervous one! She was receptive every time we reached out and always sent us sweet pictures so we knew our fur babies were happy and healthy. We will definitely book with her next time we go out of town!”

About: Hi I’m Brenda! I’m a twenty eight year old college graduate that has a special care for animals especially feline and dog friends. I am very caring and nurturing when it comes to pets as I am attentive towards what they need. If they need medication administered, food given at a certain schedule, daily walks in order to increase physical activity, or even detailed washing I am your helper! I do have prior personal experience coming from my dogs named Chestnut and Prince (both Chihuahua’s) I had helped raised mostly all their lives. They have both crossed the rainbow bridge unfortunately and I do miss them very much. We do have two dogs now Camilla and Luna whom I love very much. I had also babysat feline’s as well. I like to proper feed animals in a timely manner and being communicative towards the owners advising them of any updates from their fur babies. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time for your fur babies! I board all weekend yes and also every weekday after noon. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed and attend to their activities/diet needs.
“Amazing service for our dog. We had an unexpected trip and we booked Nicole and her family at the last minute. She was very welcoming and accommodating. The best part of all was knowing our pup enjoyed being there. We know he was in great hands. Will definitely book with Nicole and he family in the future. Thank you, Nicole.”
“Really appreciated Susana sending me pictures throughout the day. Shes also so understanding and patient with my puppy who I know is a handful right now. Her pup was also such a great playmate for my puppy! Opal came home tired both nights it was amazing.”
“I was really appreciative of Melissa and her family watching Solo while I attended my brother’s funeral. It was Solo’s first time being around anyone other than me and my husband. Sending the videos of Solo really made me not worry about him at all. I will definitely be using Melissa again in the near future. Thank you Melissa for being so loving and kind. 🥰”
“Ilona was so kind, communicative and patient. I so appreciate her warmth and calm. My pup took to her quickly and easily. I was very happy with how my dog seemed content and at ease upon our being reunited. I highly recommend Ilona.”
“Sarah took great care of my pup and was so nice too! She really went above and beyond to make her comfortable. If I'm in the area again, I will definitely bring my pup back. Thank you, Sarah!”
About: Hello! My name is Ana! I can help with boarding, day care and dog training (basic obedience, behavioral modification, socialization, potty training, desensitization etc.) I love working with dogs and have been doing it for a long time. I live in a house with a lot of space for different activities. Whether your dog is crate trained, roams the house, has special needs or on medication I can adjust to your pup’s needs. I want to provide the best care for your animals while you’re away. You will receive plenty of picture updates and a happy pooch in the end. Please message me with any concerns or questions! Thank you! I work from home, therefore I have plenty of time dedicated to the pups staying in my care. I do dog sport competitions, so might not be available some weekends. Dogs are never left unattended! Temperaments are matched for play time and socialization. Overnight dogs stay in crates to ensure a calm and safe space for each pup.
“Tina was very gracious and took in Obiwan. He had a wonderful time and Tina kept us up to date on Obi's progress throughout the day with pictures and narrative. She is located in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of space in the backyard. I would recommend Tina to anyone that wants someone that really cares about your pet.”
“Chengcheng did an amazing job taking care of my dog while I was at work. She went on multiple walks, took her to the park, and even sent pictures of my babe throughout the day so I always knew what they were doing together. I highly recommend Chengcheng for any service she offers, you can rest assured your baby is in good hands.”
“I would 100% recommend Areli to care for your fur baby! It was my first time leaving my boy and she went above and beyond to update me with photos and keep me informed. I will for certain be rebooking with Areli !!”
About: I’ve spent nearly my whole life around animals, and I genuinely can’t imagine it any other way. Almost 30 years working with horses — training, rehabbing, and caring for them — taught me patience, how to read an animal’s body language, and how to stay calm when they’re not. That instinct carries straight over to dogs, cats, and just about anyone with fur. When your pet is with me, they’re not an obligation on a checklist. They’re company. I’ll keep their routine steady, give them the attention and exercise they need, and send you updates so you’re never wondering how they’re doing. Whether it’s an anxious rescue who needs a gentle hand or a high-energy goofball who needs a real walk, I’ve got them. Acton/Santa Clarita area. Reach out and tell me about your crew — I’d love to meet them. I work from home, so pets aren’t squeezed into the margins of my day — they’re part of it. My schedule is flexible, which means I can match your pet’s routine instead of forcing them into mine: morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding times, all of it stays consistent with what they’re used to. Between my own animals and my work with horses, caring for animals is already woven into every day. Adding your pet to that rhythm isn’t a stretch — it’s just one more member of the crew. I’m around throughout the day to keep an eye on things, so your pet gets steady attention rather than a quick drop-in and gone. In your home, my first priority is keeping your pet’s world exactly as they know it — same feeding spots, same walk routes, same routine. I don’t rearrange things or cut corners. I make sure doors, gates, and yards are secure before anything else, because a lot of trouble starts with a gate that didn’t latch. I keep your keys and access details private and treat your home with the same respect I’d want for mine. With animals themselves, decades of reading horses taught me to watch body language closely — I can tell when a pet is anxious, overstimulated, or not feeling right, and I adjust instead of pushing. New environments and unfamiliar dogs get introduced slowly and on the pet’s terms. I keep an eye on hazards most people miss: food left out, toxic plants, an open trash can, a fence gap. You’ll hear from me with updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe and settled. If something seems off health-wise, I’ll reach out right away rather than wait — and I’ll always have your vet’s info on hand just in case.
“Melissa did a great job watching Joy and was communicative on how Joy did during her day. I will definitely rebook with her next time I need a sitter when I’m in Santa Clarita.”
About: I have always had animals since I was a kid and I have always loved them! I love their unconditional connection with us. I have senior dog care and medication administering experience. I am trying something new in my career path, which will hopefully include your pet. I want to work with animals more and turn it into a career. I can't wait to get my steps in with your pet! I have an open schedule at this time. I'm looking to fill my week with regular walks, visits, and boarding. I have three daughters. My oldest actually works as a pet bather with Petsmart and my two younger daughters love animals as much as I do......I've been told by my oldest that I'm not allowed at the animals shelter anymore. 🤣🤣🤣 I live in a mobile home with a fenced yard. I have four of my own fur babies that are welcoming to new visitors. Depending on weather we may go for walks at the park and visit the dog park or play in the backyard or even the house with toys. But as long as it's not too hot or raining we hit the park and dog park.
“My baby Makana had a great time at JJ’s house.. Though we didn’t see the host’s interior of the house where the pets are, the pictures she had sent looked clean and safe.. It’s Makana’s first time to socialize with 2 dogs since she turned 2 yrs old due to some health issues when she’s a pup. We thought it’s time for her to explore and find out if she is well adjusted now that she’s an adult.She is as expected to be a little shy but was able to adapt and became comfortable. She is tired and pretty happy bec she had a play date with Zuri ( the host’s furbaby) and another furbaby. I’m glad that JJ has been sending pic and videos of our baby’s socialization activities and so nice of their son to play with the FBabies.. Thank you and will definitely recommend her services.”
“We needed a dog sitter asap while we got our kitchen demolished for renovation. Our 9 month old Shepherd mix had a great time. He played with her dog, he was walked and he took naps throughout the day. I was updated with pictures and videos. It assured our family to know he was in good hands. Thank you so much Elena ❤️ Look forward to bringing our puppy back again when we need your services.”
About: Dogs have been part of my life as long as I can remember! Love meeting all of them and can't wait to meet your little bud! I make my own schedule, so for the most part I'm available when needed (with proper planning for longer visits of course.) Feel free to reach out when you need a hand! My pup is on pretty good schedule, so I'm know the importance of keeping those scheduled feedings and/or outside time. If we need walks, someone to throw a ball to get the zoomies out or just someone to hang with so they're not alone all day I'm in!
About: I’ve cared for dogs for 33 years. Including but not limited to walking, feeding, hygiene care and administrating multiple medicines. Familiar with seizures as well. I have pets of my own so tending to animals is a routine to me and my children for a daily routine. We have cats and a small dog. Our cats and dog are mainly inside animals. With my dog going outside to the gated backyard whenever she wants. We also have a gated pool so the animals will remain safe.
“Celeste is so caring, kind and sweet! Maccas is usually nervous in new environment but quickly settled in at Celeste’s. She even feels comfortable enough to pooped during the first day care.”

Currently have an adorable rescue dog who lives with me in my apartment! Trust is very important to me! Your pet is my #1 priority and want to make sure you feel comfortable leaving them in my care!

About: I’ve had private clients over the past two years consistent of house sitting and dog walking. Moving to a new area and switching to Rover to meet new pets to care for. I currently have open weekends and work a 9/80 schedule allowing me to be off every other Friday and available to help your pets!

About: I grew up with pets and currently have my own pets, teaching my daughter proper responsibility and behavior with animals. We fully incorporate them into our family, and love and care for all living things! We love pets! I work a very flexible schedule, working a max of 3 days a week. I find at least 45 minutes a day to walk my pets so understand the need for animals to get out of the house, sniff, potty, and see new environments during the day. Our pets are fully incorporated into our home and our family. They are allowed inside, get at least one walk a day, but strive for 2, their health is maintained and prioritized, and Safety for my pets, other peoples pets, and the owners is always a priority.

About: I’m new to the Rover community but I look forward to expanding my profile and making time for your companions. My family and I have had dogs are entire +20 years, til this day too. We’ve had large and small dogs, several breeds, some became mothers, and some left the family—so I’ve experienced full life cycles of dogs. Because of my understandings of having a furry companion, I have a soft spot for all furry buddies and i’m committed to learning and adapting to taking care of a new friend if it means making a fellow pet owner’s life a little easier. I love to be active so I can take your buddy for nice nature walks, play with them, or even down time with endless head/belly scratches—whatever your friend needs I can give. My two dogs, Muffin and Biscuit enjoy short walks and eating snacks so they’re two furballs of fun! I’m available for drop-ins or house sitting when needed.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, but my biggest experience comes from raising my two Blue Heelers from puppies. My oldest is 15 years old and my other is 7, so I’ve had years of experience learning how different dogs can be at every stage of life. Blue Heelers are smart, energetic, and definitely have their own personalities, so raising them has taught me a lot about patience, consistency, exercise, and understanding a dog’s individual needs. I’m comfortable with high energy pups that want to play and stay active, but I also know how important it is to slow things down and give older dogs the extra attention and patience they need. What I think sets me apart is that I don’t see dog sitting as just feeding a dog and taking them outside. I actually enjoy getting to know each dog their personality, their routine, what makes them comfortable, and what makes them happy. I’ll give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship while making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog with someone else, so my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pup is being treated like family while you’re away. I work a part-time job, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule to give dogs the attention and exercise they need. I’m available any time on weekdays and weekends, which gives me plenty of time to play, walk, feed, and spend quality time with them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I really enjoy being around dogs. When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I treat their home and their pets with the same care and respect I would my own. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep their pets on their normal routine, and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, food, and fresh water. I also keep the space clean and secure and provide updates so the owner knows their pets are doing well.
About: Hi! I’m Walter, a lifelong animal lover who grew up with dogs of all sizes, including toy poodles and schnauzers. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one feel comfortable, happy, and safe. Friends and family describe me as calm, dependable, and attentive. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I have experience teaching dogs basic commands and enjoy reinforcing positive behaviors through patience and consistency. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets and following detailed feeding, medication, and exercise routines. My goal is simple: to treat every pet as if they were my own, so you can travel with peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, responsible hands. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply companionship, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and aren’t left alone for long periods. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs before every booking. I follow feeding, medication, and exercise instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and always prioritize safe walks and supervised play. As a board-certified physician, attention to detail, responsibility, and clear communication are qualities I bring to every visit.

About: Hi, I’m Josselyn! 🐾❤️ Leaving your dog with someone else can feel like a BIG deal. You want to know they're safe, loved, and with someone who can handle them in all aspects. That's exactly what I'm here for! I especially love working with active, playful, and high energy dogs who need more than just a quick walk around the block. I'm comfortable handling big personalities, lots of energy, and dogs who need plenty of mental and physical stimulation. Whether your pup wants a long walk, a game of fetch, some playtime, or simply a lot of love and attention, I'll meet them where they are. If you looked in my car, you’d probably find a bag of dog food, extra water, treats, and a leash because helping animals isn’t something I turn on and off; it’s simply who I am. Some of the most meaningful moments for me have been watching an animal go from scared, hungry, or unsure to safe, happy, and loved. That’s when I realized caring for animals isn’t just something I enjoy it’s something that comes naturally to me. Along with caring for my own dogs and cats, I’ve also provided dog walking and pet sitting for others. I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities, energy levels, ages, and needs. Whether your pup is shy and needs time to warm up, playful and full of energy, or a senior who needs extra patience and gentle care, I take the time to understand them and make them feel comfortable. I’m also very active, so if your dog loves long walks, jogging, hiking, or getting their energy out, I’ll happily keep up! If they prefer a slower, relaxed walk with plenty of sniffing and attention, I’m just as happy to go at their pace. Every dog is different, and I believe their care should be personalized to who they are. What truly sets me apart is that I don’t see this as just a job. I was caring for animals long before joining Rover. I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, kindness, respect, and lots of love. When you trust me with your pet, my goal is simple: for you to have peace of mind knowing your best friend is safe, happy, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Because to me, they’re not “just pets.” They’re family. 🐾❤️ I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because it's something I truly enjoy. I currently work two part-time jobs, which gives me a flexible schedule with availability most mornings, afternoon, evenings, and weekends. Whether your dog enjoys a relaxing walk, an active run, or just some extra love and attention, I'm happy to tailor my care to their needs while providing dependable, consistent service you can count on. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well being are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can provide care that's consistent and personalized. Whether I'm in your home or out on a walk, I'll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring and dependable hands.
About: I love all animals even the initially intimidating ones. I know how to read animals signals and access their comfort level. I give each pet the time it needs to get comfortable so that I can establish a relationship of trust. I'm nether a cat person or a dog person or a tortoise person for that matter, I love all pets equally. I've taken care of virtually every kind of house, pet (including my aunt's chinchilla) thank you got something I haven't seen before? Bring it on. I'm ready for it all. I don't consider taking care of pets to be at shore or work. I take care of them because they take care of me. They keep me calm and grounded, even when things are at their most chaotic. First things first, I treat each animal as if it were my own. I make sure to give each pet the attention it deserves. Upon first introduction and the patients to let it get comfortable when needed. From there I'm happy to take care of any special requests you might require for your pet.

“Luka thoroughly enjoyed his stay with Melissa and her well behaved puppies. She sent us photos and videos every day without asking and kept us updated on all the fun he had. We will definitely be using her services again in the future”
“Bruno had an amazing time with Laura and Brian: they took great care of our family pup. They constantly sent pics and updates. It was Bruno’s first time being away from home; and he did so good. We are considering doggy day care with Laura and Brian because of how great Bruno did. It’s wonderful to come across folks who’ve spent time with different breeds of dogs so they know what to expect. Yet also, have the understanding that every dog is different. Thanks so much!!!!!!”
“Tiffany was so welcoming and kind. We left our dog with Tiffany for 2 nights. She would send photos throughout the day, & he looked so calm and comfortable. I was so happy to see my dog so loved. I could tell how well my dog was taken care of and I will definitely be reaching out to Tiffany again.”
“Our dog is not the easiest to care for, but Laura did an excellent job. Laura and her wonderful family played with our high energy dog everyday, and sent pictures of our dog playing, and playing with new dog friends!”
“This is our second time booking with Shayna! Once again, she treated our Luna girl like her own. She frequently sends videos/pictures and has great communication with us during our time away.”
“We left our Shiba Inu over a long weekend with Stacey. Our experience was wonderful. The house is great and Stacey’s whole family was so accommodating and loving to our dog. The back yard is large and all fenced in, and our dog was allowed both in and outside. Stacey spent lots of time playing fetch with our dog, taught her a new trick ( to lay down), and spent lots of time giving her pets and cuddles. This was the first time we have ever left our dog and we were nervous but Stacey sent us so many pictures and updates, and she really took care to make us feel at ease. We were able to have a nice vacation away and our dog was safe and loved while we were gone. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!”
“Elizabeth was kind and professional. She kept us updated on Akira's progress during the three days she had her via pictures and text messages. She provided a loving family environment for Akira.”
“Yelda has been amazing with Nami! She’s very caring, reliable, and I always feel at ease knowing Nami is in good hands with her. She takes such great care of her and keeps me updated, which I really appreciate. I would definitely recommend Yelda to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their fur baby! ❤️”
“Melissa is always so accommodating and willing to host Kylo even if it’s a last minute request. She really treats him as one of her own doggies, always spoiling him with lots of cuddles, treats, and multiple walks throughout the day. She also sends multiple pictures and updates throughout the day to put your mind at ease! Thank you Melissa, Kylo can’t wait for his next stay with you!”
“I immediately felt so comfortable when I walked into their house, I knew my pup would be safe there. They even made her a little blanket fort because they noticed she's skittish and likes being underneath things. So sweet!”
“Wonderful, easy experience, great communication, loved all the photos Ilona sent me everyday and Teddy was very happy and at ease in her home. I found my forever dog sitter on Rover .. I’ll definitely be booking with Ilona again.”
“Tania and her daughter are wonderful and took such good care of my dog. Due to my circumstances I will be bringing my dog over pretty regularly and knowing that he felt comfortable and that Tania and her daughter enjoyed him means the world to me! It is so hard to leave your pet but knowing your pet is in good hands is the best. Thank you both!!”

“Mae made my first time leaving my Frenchie with someone outside of family so easy and comforting. She and her family cared for her like their own and sent sweet updates throughout the weekend. I’m so grateful for Mae’s kindness and will definitely book with her again!”
