“Susan and Miguel took amazing care of our 7-month-old puppy while we were away. They were very attentive, loving, and made sure she felt comfortable and happy. We received frequent updates (pictures and videos as well)and could tell she was in great hands the whole time. They treated her like one of theirs, and it gave us so much peace of mind. We are so grateful for their help and would absolutely trust them again in the future!”

“Jennifer was amazing with Buddy, this is the first time I sent my boy to a dog sitter and was completely nervous about it. Jennifer understood this and made an extra effort to update me on how he was doing. Jennifer was also amazing on being flexible with time and working with how both buddy and I were getting on during this time.”
“Celia is a true dog lover. She took care of my sweet Chihuahua named Joy with love and care. It felt like I’m sending my baby to vacation spa. Celia communicate with me every day, twice a day and sent me pictures to reassure me of the well-being of my joy. I’m very happy and grateful to find such a great dog sitter. I recommend Celia with all my heart she really gave me a piece of mind while I was away.”
“Mrs. Rochelle is simply amazing and has a beautiful family that helps her. She is very patient and kind. Our Taz can be a bit rambunctious but she said he did well. She sent photos while we were away on our trip. My grandpups were well taken care of. We will definitely use Mrs. Rochelle again. Thank you so much for caring for our fur babies.”
“I want to say thank you to them for taking such great care of Gucci! I received constant updates and photos, and my dog looked so happy in every picture they shared. She got proper walks and plenty of attention. And, they seemed happy taking care of Gucci. I will definitely be booking with them again, and their pricing was very reasonable too. Thank you again ♥️♥️”
“My pups came for a half-day trial to see how’d they do, and it went great!! Felt really comfortable leaving my fur babies there. Great communication before, during & after their stay. We’ll definitely be back!”
“I cannot recommend Monisa and David enough! We boarded our dog Charlie for two weeks with them, and he was treated like family. Monisa and David were incredibly communicative, they kept in touch with us frequently, sending updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. It was very obvious Charlie enjoyed being with them ! He appeared happy and healthy upon our return . We will absolutely be booking with them again!”
“Brian and Eunice were great! Received tons of photo updates of Mochi and I loved it so much. Was feeling anxious with him staying with a new family for 5 nights, but I felt so much better after all the updates and seeing how well Mochi was doing with their family. My fur baby was well taken care of. Mochi became part of their family. Thank you again Brian and Eunice! We will definitely be booking with them again 🥰”
“I just want to say Stephanie is AMAZING! It is really hard finding someone to watch my fur babies because one is a pitbul and the other a bully, but Stephanie and her family took both of them in and took care of them like they were her own. Thank you for all the photos and updates as well! I will definitely use Stephanie again!!! Thank you again so much!!”
“I left my two puppies in Allison’s care for 3 days and they were so happy! Allison send me photos everyday and kept me updated on how they were doing. She really is the best!”
“Our goldendoodle had a wonderful time with Linh and Torrey! They sent us multiple photos and videos every day and took him to the park to play ball. We appreciated all the media while he was away. We could tell he really enjoyed it there.”
“Emmeline was an amazing sitter. She watched my dog chico who has many quirks and was able to handle them all without any issues. She sent me tons of photos during the sit which I loved. We definitely want to use her in the future.”
“Thank you, Kim & Chris, for taking such great care of our little Mazzie. I have terrible anxiety leaving our rescue pup. But with your loving care, all of my anxiety went away knowing that Mazzie would be well cared for. We look forward to booking with you again.”
“Angelo is an amazing guy! Took great care of my dogs while I was gone on an unexpected emergency trip. I’d recommend him to anyone needing help with getting their dogs watched any time. My pups were sad to leave his care for sure.”
“I cannot recommend Steven enough! My dog is quite skittish with strangers and has a very specific routine at home, so I was nervous about boarding. Steven was incredibly understanding and listened to all my concerns, but what impressed me most was how he prioritized reading her body language over just following my instructions blindly. He understood that she might behave differently in a new environment and adapted brilliantly. Despite the challenges of a different household dynamic—managing a 'grazer' around his own dog and mirroring our busy family routine—he made her feel right at home. By the first night, she was eating, playing, and even sleeping in her crate! If you want a sitter who truly understands dog psychology and provides personalized care, Steven is the one.”

About: I have been caring for animals of many kind since I was 11 years old. In my life, I have owned many dogs and cats and have always been a trusted pet care giver since a young age. I currently live on a small farm with 2 dogs, horses, goats, pigs, chickens, and ducks, so I am no stranger to loving and caring for animals. I am a trusted pet sitter and caretaker for family, friends, and neighbors. They know when their animals are in my care, they are safe, loved, and well cared for. I always take extra care and caution to ensure safety of all animals in my care. I am currently a stay-at-home mom and spend most of my day caring for my own animals while my children are at school. I find myself having time in the day, primarily weekdays, where I can spend time assisting others in caring for their animals. My schedule during the week is fairly flexible to help meet the needs of my clients. Safety is my #1 priority. When I am caring for you animals, I ensure gates are locked, animals are secure, and food and water is accessible as needed. I have several habits to ensure I am following all instructions to include checklists and snapping photos of locked gates for ease of mind for myself and my clients.
“I highly recommend Jasmine for drop-in visits! She watched my three indoor cats and was incredibly punctual and reliable. I have specific routines for my cats, and Jasmine followed every instruction to the letter. Her communication was transparent and clear, providing great updates that gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I’ll definitely be booking her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of cats for about a year and I love how gentle they are. Cats are self kept which makes them semi-easy to take care of. You can rely on me to take good care of your cats and or any other animals
About: As the owner of a happy, well trained 3 year old dog, I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, and proper training. My dog is walked every day, and I’ve worked with professional trainers at PetSmart to teach good manners and obedience. This hands on experience has given me the skills to provide dependable, safe, and loving care for your dog while you’re away. I’m currently working as a contract employee, which gives me a flexible schedule. This summer because of the heat I am available from 5:30am-7:30am and 6:30pm-7:30pm In my home, pets are treated like family they get regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I make sure they have fresh water, meals on schedule, and a safe, comfortable environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely feeding, walking, and giving any medications as directed while also keeping their space tidy and secure. My goal is to make pets feel comfortable and cared for, whether they’re with me or staying in their own home.
“Alexus is the sweetest ever! She stopped by to check up on my cats for two weeks. She was amazing and sweet with my babies and took really good care of them. I will be booking with her again in the future”
About: With a lifetime of pet ownership under my belt, I am confident caring for animals of every shape and size. I bring specialized experience to the table, including bottle-feeding and raising 4-week-old kittens, handling large breeds like Rhodesian Ridgebacks, and caring for pocket pets. I absolutely love sitting energetic puppies and know exactly how to keep them safe, engaged, and well-behaved. Your pets will receive the same level of love and meticulous attention that I give my own!
“Maci did a great job taking care of my 6 cats and the strays I feed while we were gone for two weeks. She’s very organized and kept track of who was who and who needed what meds and who liked what food. She also did a great job cleaning up the messes my cats made in the middle of the night including the limoncello they broke. What a mess but she cleaned it up and put everything in bags so as to not make any further stinky messes. I will definitely hire Maci again!”

“Sarah and her family were so amazing with my cat Finnegan! I have never before had such an amazing experience with a sitter. Sarah sent photos and updates and Finnegan was so so happy with all the other animals. I cannot speak more highly of her and her kid's care and compassion with animals!”
“Gabriela was very attentive to my dogs. Made me feel much better that they were still getting attention each day and they were not losing out on anything. I will definitely be using her in the future for trips and she was very responsive and followed all directions as requested. She was a pleasure to meet before the trip and have the dogs meet her and she was happy to get down on their level and help them to get to know her and they got more and more comfortable as the days progressed. Thank you so much Gabriela we appreciate you so very much!”

About: I am a CPDT-KA certified trainer with several years of experience training dogs in both private and shelter settings. In addition to my training experience, I have fostered hundreds of medical and behavioral dogs over the last fifteen years, with the majority of my fosters being behavioral or medical. I am comfortable giving subcutaneous injections or oral medications to animals in my care. I am also comfortable dealing with a majority of behavioral issues. I run a non-profit animal rescue that save hundreds of lives from our local shelters every year, and the funds I earn on Rover go towards the creation of a facility for this rescue. Private training is also available at an additional cost. I am available late afternoons and evenings on weekdays. I have morning availability on weekends. For accommodations outside of these time frames, we can work to schedule as an exception. I care for your pets like they are my own. Safety is always paramount and I take a lot of precautions to ensure pets do not escape while in my care. I supervise while pets are engaged in enrichment activities and always utilize well fitted equipment and appropriate holding techniques while walking pets.
About: Hi! My name is Alyssaray Laminero, and I’m a 29-year-old in-home health caregiver with over three years of experience working closely with elderly clients—and their beloved pets! Many of the individuals I care for have cats in the home, so along with assisting them with their daily living needs, I’ve naturally taken on the role of caring for their feline companions too. From making sure they have fresh food and water to scooping and changing litter boxes, and of course giving them lots of attention and playtime, I make sure every fur baby feels just as cared for as their human. I’m not afraid of any animal—furry or not, I love them all! I’ve grown up with pets my entire life and often help family and friends with their animals when they’re away or tied up with work. I’m currently looking to earn extra income doing what I love—caring for both people and pets. If you're looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and genuinely animal-loving, I’d be thrilled to help care for your loved ones too
About: I understand that cats thrive on routine, patience, and respect for their space. I take the time to learn each cat’s personality, preferences, and cues, whether that means interactive play, gentle affection, or simply quiet companionship. My experience caring for a high-energy pet also gives me a strong sense of balance, ensuring cats receive appropriate stimulation without stress. From kittens to seniors, I provide thoughtful, low-stress care tailored to each cat’s needs.

“Susan & Miguel are excellent dog sitters. I regularly get updates and photos. I really appreciate hearing about Maya’s progress socializing with other pups and members of the household. It’s great that Maya is ready to go - all packed up and her harness is on.”
“Rayann took great care of Scamper during the daytime boarding stay. The service was really good, and I truly appreciated the frequent updates and photos throughout the day, which gave me peace of mind. She also followed all the requests and instructions I shared for Scamper’s care. Overall, it was a smooth and positive experience, and I would definitely recommend Rayann to others looking for a caring and reliable sitter.”
“Aurora had the best day!! It was her first time away at doggie daycare, and she came home EXHAUSTED from all the fun play time with her new friends. I enjoyed getting all the updates & pictures throughout the day. We’ll definitely be returning.”
“Kristine was very sweet to Maya. She made sure to ask questions first time. She let her warm up to her. Maya was on her lap within 10 minutes. A gate was set up at the door, per our request.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for over 10 years — as a pet owner, and at one point as a foster to a rescue dog. That experience taught me a lot about patience, reading a dog’s body language, and helping an animal feel safe in an unfamiliar environment. It’s shaped the way I approach every dog that comes through my door. I want to ensure your dog has the quality time they deserve and I only take on one family’s dogs for boarding at a time. This is to ensure I can properly give your dog(s) proper attention and personal time. Every new dog gets their own space to decompress first. My home has separate gated areas where they can take in the new sights, sounds, and smells before meeting my dogs. Introductions happen slowly and on their terms — some dogs are ready in an hour, others need a day, and either way is perfectly fine. By the time they join my dogs, it feels natural. Working from home part of the week means your dog gets real, consistent company and attention throughout the day. We go on daily walks, there’s plenty of couch time, and the little things — a change in appetite, a dog who just needs some quiet — never go unnoticed. You’ll get regular photo updates and check-ins throughout the stay, so you’re never left wondering how things are going. I have cameras throughout nearly every room and dogs will be separated/crated if needed when I need to step out, so your dogs will never be left unsupervised. If this sounds like a good fit, reach out! A meet and greet is always the first step to make sure everyone’s comfortable and compatible. I am work from home most days of the week. I can accommodate my work schedule to ensure that I can be home the whole time during your dog’s stay. I have a fenced backyard with a separate potty area. I take my dogs on walks every day as well. Dogs are allowed on furniture and I have separate gated areas so that dogs can acclimate in their own space before joining my dogs.
“Chloe has adjusted so well with Debbie and Gerry! Today was our move day and it took a little longer than expected they were both so gracious and took care of Chloe a little longer. These two are the Best!!”
“Your pet will be in great care with Dalene. She took my dog in as one of her own and I felt at ease while my dog was being cared for. You can tell she loves all the pets that’s came across her way. Very much appreciate the great work Dalene has demonstrated. We will definitely be back for future care as needed.”
“Jane is awesome! She takes very good care of Bubba and provides him with plenty of exercise and water during the day. He's pooped when he goes home but is very excited when he sees he is going to visit Jane.”

“This is my first time using Rover. Hortensia arranged a meeting a few days prior to us entrusting our dog, Honey, to her care. During this meeting, she showed us her home and yard, where the dogs typically relax. Honey quickly settled in and appeared quite comfortable. Hortensia provided excellent care for Honey and followed all the instructions we provided. We will most certainly reach out to her again for future pet care needs for Honey. Thank you Hortensia!”
“Ana is absolutely phenomenal! Vaylah definitely enjoyed her time cause she was wiped out when I picked her up! Ana sent tons of photos and videos during the day too which was so nice!! Highly recommend!!”

I love to walk, but tailor my services to your dogs needs. Want me to have them socialize with my dog, done. Want me to keep the dogs separate, I can do that too. Message me and let me know what you need! Something that separates me from others: I understand some dogs are just vocal and not aggressive.

Thank you and I’m looking forward to meeting you and your dog(s). I don’t discriminate based on gender, gender expression, religion, age, sexual orientation, race, or for any other reason.

I have a fenced yard and a dog for your dog to socialize, but also have room to keep them separate if preferred. Dogs are fed as much and as often as requested by owner along with the amount of potty breaks. If the pet is house trained they are also allowed to be in the home. I love to give dogs treats so they can expect treats when they are over if approved by you!

About: They aren't just pets, they're family. Our furbabies deserve to be loved and taken care of, after 20+ years of experience with anything from cats to goldfish I believe I'm the lady for the job lol I'm currently working from home in a quiet environment and some extra time. I would love to fill that time providing care for you furbaby when you have to be away. Although I live in an townhome apartment complex, my home is very spacious. There are areas just outside my door where I can take them to relieve themselves throughout the day and large patio if your baby loves to lay out in the sun. I live in a lax neighborhood with several nearby dog parks where I can take them on walks to stretch their legs and blow off some steam before you head home after a long day.

I am very flexible!! To keep your pet comfortable in your home, I love making homemade allergy free dog treats (especially during the summer when it’s hot). If it’s my first time meeting your dog I will be sure to give him as much space/time needed to get used to me especially if they’re shy. I will stick closely to their daily routine, Consistency is a big thing. I will make sure to give the dog any attention but on their terms so they’re fully comfortable with me and pay close attention to their body language.
“Anissa came and walked my dog for a couple days and agreed to a meet and greet to discuss expectations beforehand. She was very professional and kind to me and my dog Freya. She asked about all sorts of habits and made sure to give my baby not only the exercise but lunch and refilled her water, she also sent pictures of the walk. Literally the best experience I could have hoped for. I will be booking her again! And I would recommend her.”

About: Hi there! My name is Lyndsey, and I decided to join Rover because I simply couldn’t resist the idea of spending my free time with dogs! I have two dogs of my own and have been surrounded by animals my entire life, so I truly understand how special and precious our furry friends are. Dogs are family to me, and I absolutely love every moment I get to spend with them. Whether you need long walks, check-ins, or just some extra love and attention for your pup while you’re away, I’m here to help! I’m responsible, caring, and excited to give your dog the best care possible. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend and provide them with the love and attention they deserve! I currently have a full time job usually starting in the late afternoons through the evenings, but I’m fortunate that my work schedule allows me to offer pet care during the mornings, early afternoons, and at night! Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, and it fits perfectly into my routine. Before my workday, I’m available for walks, check-ins, or just some one-on-one playtime with your pup. If needed to stay over your house to dog sit, I can easily do so after my work hours. On my days off (Sunday & Monday), I’m flexible and can offer extended care or visits to make sure your dog gets all the love and attention they need while you’re away. Pet care is a perfect way for me to unwind and make sure your furry friend gets the care they deserve! When caring for pets in your home, I focus on maintaining a routine that’s familiar and comforting for your pet. I start by ensuring that your dog feels at ease in their environment, keeping their space clean, and following any specific instructions you’ve provided for feeding, exercise, and playtime. I make sure to give them plenty of attention, whether that’s a long walk, some fun playtime, or simply relaxing and offering companionship. If your dog has any special needs, I’m more than happy to accommodate them, whether it’s administering medication or sticking to a certain schedule. I also keep you updated with photos and messages to let you know how your dog is doing, so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make your pet feel loved, safe, and cared for in the comfort of their own home.

I love being able to give dogs and cats the attention, love, and care they need, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. For me, this isn’t just work, it’s something that genuinely makes me happy!🥹💕 I provide pet care in my home, which is fully fenced and safe for both dogs and cats to roam and play freely. I do not have children, which allows me to focus entirely on giving pets the attention, love, and supervision they need. I take no more than one pet at a time( I have a pet of my own) to ensure that they receive personalized care. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply companionship, I make sure every animal in my care feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for in a secure and nurturing environment🎀
About: I have had animals, specifically dogs my whole life. Once I moved out I was always the go to dog sitter for friends. They trusted me to take care of their animals as if they were my own. I have personally had/pet sat for a variety of dog breeds. There is no pet too big/small, too reactive, too hyper or too stubborn for me. I personally have a XL breed dog that is highly reactive to everything and can manage him just fine. I also use to work at an amazing pet food store that taught me the ends and out of great products for pets and a lot of animal knowledge. From training, behavior issues, grooming techniques and miscellaneous pet information. Overall, I have a passion and soft spot for animals. I understand how important they are to you and your family. Currently I have open availability/flexible hours. I usually have a few things to do in the morning but after that completely free. Available weekends and most holidays. These are your pets and what you think is best for you pet, is what is best for them. I can follow any directions given, I know how to use harnesses, leashes, muzzles, pinch/choke chains. I triple check that doors are locked, triple check if their crate is locked. Anything you need me to do with your pets I am open to.
About: I have been caring for animals of many kind since I was 11 years old. In my life, I have owned many dogs and cats and have always been a trusted pet care giver since a young age. I currently live on a small farm with 2 dogs, horses, goats, pigs, chickens, and ducks, so I am no stranger to loving and caring for animals. I am a trusted pet sitter and caretaker for family, friends, and neighbors. They know when their animals are in my care, they are safe, loved, and well cared for. I always take extra care and caution to ensure safety of all animals in my care. I am currently a stay-at-home mom and spend most of my day caring for my own animals while my children are at school. I find myself having time in the day, primarily weekdays, where I can spend time assisting others in caring for their animals. My schedule during the week is fairly flexible to help meet the needs of my clients. Safety is my #1 priority. When I am caring for you animals, I ensure gates are locked, animals are secure, and food and water is accessible as needed. I have several habits to ensure I am following all instructions to include checklists and snapping photos of locked gates for ease of mind for myself and my clients.
About: I've taken care of dogs at every stage of their lives; from walking to feeding to doggie play time to post-surgical care. Loving dogs is my heart's special joy. I'm retired so I am available any time your pet needs me. I am an early riser so I can get the dogs out for a walk before the heat of the day. There's always time for a butt scratch. :-) The most important thing to me is to find out how the client wants their pet cared for in their home and meet those needs. My goal is to have a happy, healthy dog when their parents come home.
“Melissa is an excellent dog walker who provides outstanding service. She is punctual, dependable, and clearly dedicated to the well-being of the dogs in her care. My dog always returns happy and well-exercised, and her communication and professionalism make scheduling effortless. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and responsible dog walker.”
About: My experience with animals comes from a lifetime of caring for pets of different sizes, ages, and personalities. Growing up, I spent a great deal of time helping care for a close friend's German Shepherd, including regular walks, exercise, and companionship as she entered her senior years. This taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and adapting care to a dog's changing needs. I have also owned and cared for cats throughout my life, giving me experience with pets that have very different personalities and care routines. More recently, I have spent the last year helping care for and train three Chihuahuas, working on positive habits, daily routines, exercise, and building trust. What sets me apart is my ability to connect with animals of all sizes and energy levels. Whether you have a playful puppy, an energetic adult, a senior dog that needs a gentler pace, or a cat that prefers a calm approach, I focus on providing attentive, patient, and dependable care. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their personality and routine so they feel comfortable and safe while in my care. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week, including weekends. During the summer, I have open availability for dog walks, drop-in visits, and pet care services. I'm able to accommodate a variety of schedules, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and last-minute bookings when available. My availability will change when I return to school in the fall, but for now I am committed to providing reliable and flexible care to fit your pet's needs. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets! When walking dogs, I pay close attention to their behavior, surroundings, and comfort level to ensure every walk is safe and enjoyable. I always keep dogs securely leashed unless instructed otherwise in a safe, enclosed area. When visiting a client's home, I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), and any specific routines that help pets feel comfortable. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to get to know them and build trust at their pace. I also respect my clients' homes as if they were my own. I make sure doors and gates are secure, leave the home as I found it, and provide updates so owners can feel confident that their pets are receiving attentive and reliable care while they're away.
About: With a lifetime of pet ownership under my belt, I am confident caring for animals of every shape and size. I bring specialized experience to the table, including bottle-feeding and raising 4-week-old kittens, handling large breeds like Rhodesian Ridgebacks, and caring for pocket pets. I absolutely love sitting energetic puppies and know exactly how to keep them safe, engaged, and well-behaved. Your pets will receive the same level of love and meticulous attention that I give my own! Because I manage a flexible part-time schedule, pet care is a seamless and primary focus of my day. I structure my time to guarantee that the animals in my care receive consistent attention, timely feedings, and plenty of active play sessions. Whether it is adjusting to a puppy's strict bathroom schedule or accommodating evening check-ins, my routine allows me to be highly reliable and attentive to your pet's specific daily needs. Safety and peace of mind are my highest priorities when caring for any animal. I maintain a highly attentive, supervised environment to ensure all pets stay safe and secure during playtime and transitions. I am fully prepared to follow your specific household rules, crate-training preferences, or strictly separated feeding routines to prevent stress. Whether tracking strict schedules or securing the space, I treat every home and pet with the utmost vigilance and respect.
“Abby did a great job with our dog Ritmo while we were on vacation. It was the first time we used this service and we couldn't have been more lucky. She took care of our baby like it was her own. If you are looking for someone responsible, trustworthy and loving to your pet Abby is highly recommended. Thank you”
About: I’ve owned a dog nearly my whole life, 3 dogs in total. One poodle when I was younger, a shorkie, and a pitbull husky mix I found on the side of the road. I also have around 3-4 years experience in volunteering at animal shelters, doing doggy day outs, summer dog walking and fostering. I care for my dog each day, he’s become apart of me. Everyday I wake up, take him outside so he can run round and relieve himself. Then I fill his food and water bowl, at least 3 times a day to make sure he gets the right nutrition. I take him on walks and play with him alot, he’s love fighting my hand it’s so cute. I treat every pet like my family, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. I’ll stick as close as I can to their normal routine such as meal, walks, playtime and any special care so their environment feels consistent and safe. In my home your pet will get a calm space with lots of attention and affection. In your home I will respect your space while keeping your pets routine exactly how they’re used it. I will also send videos a pictures throughout the day so you can feel at ease.

During overnight stays I ensure pets feel comfortable and content, while also respecting their space and boundaries. Especially for those who prefer to be left alone. Some of my prior experiences with pet sitting involved caring for four senior dogs and a kitten. I made sure they received meticulous care. Some of my tasks included administering medications and providing engaging activities. My devotion to animals of all kinds sets me apart as a compassionate and reliable pet sitter. Being unemployed allows me to prioritize pet care, ensuring reliable and attentive service tailored to your pets needs. I am committed to giving the best possible care for your pets!

“Nathan and family were great! Very communicative and our dog seemed right at home! Which is huge because she has high anxiety but she loved it with Nathan and crew. Will definitely be rebooking soon.”
“Jennifer was amazing with Buddy, this is the first time I sent my boy to a dog sitter and was completely nervous about it. Jennifer understood this and made an extra effort to update me on how he was doing. Jennifer was also amazing on being flexible with time and working with how both buddy and I were getting on during this time.”
“Mrs. Rochelle is simply amazing and has a beautiful family that helps her. She is very patient and kind. Our Taz can be a bit rambunctious but she said he did well. She sent photos while we were away on our trip. My grandpups were well taken care of. We will definitely use Mrs. Rochelle again. Thank you so much for caring for our fur babies.”
“My pups came for a half-day trial to see how’d they do, and it went great!! Felt really comfortable leaving my fur babies there. Great communication before, during & after their stay. We’ll definitely be back!”
“I cannot recommend Monisa and David enough! We boarded our dog Charlie for two weeks with them, and he was treated like family. Monisa and David were incredibly communicative, they kept in touch with us frequently, sending updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. It was very obvious Charlie enjoyed being with them ! He appeared happy and healthy upon our return . We will absolutely be booking with them again!”
“I just want to say Stephanie is AMAZING! It is really hard finding someone to watch my fur babies because one is a pitbul and the other a bully, but Stephanie and her family took both of them in and took care of them like they were her own. Thank you for all the photos and updates as well! I will definitely use Stephanie again!!! Thank you again so much!!”
“Our goldendoodle had a wonderful time with Linh and Torrey! They sent us multiple photos and videos every day and took him to the park to play ball. We appreciated all the media while he was away. We could tell he really enjoyed it there.”
“Angelo is an amazing guy! Took great care of my dogs while I was gone on an unexpected emergency trip. I’d recommend him to anyone needing help with getting their dogs watched any time. My pups were sad to leave his care for sure.”
“I cannot recommend Steven enough! My dog is quite skittish with strangers and has a very specific routine at home, so I was nervous about boarding. Steven was incredibly understanding and listened to all my concerns, but what impressed me most was how he prioritized reading her body language over just following my instructions blindly. He understood that she might behave differently in a new environment and adapted brilliantly. Despite the challenges of a different household dynamic—managing a 'grazer' around his own dog and mirroring our busy family routine—he made her feel right at home. By the first night, she was eating, playing, and even sleeping in her crate! If you want a sitter who truly understands dog psychology and provides personalized care, Steven is the one.”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for over 10 years — as a pet owner, and at one point as a foster to a rescue dog. That experience taught me a lot about patience, reading a dog’s body language, and helping an animal feel safe in an unfamiliar environment. It’s shaped the way I approach every dog that comes through my door. I want to ensure your dog has the quality time they deserve and I only take on one family’s dogs for boarding at a time. This is to ensure I can properly give your dog(s) proper attention and personal time. Every new dog gets their own space to decompress first. My home has separate gated areas where they can take in the new sights, sounds, and smells before meeting my dogs. Introductions happen slowly and on their terms — some dogs are ready in an hour, others need a day, and either way is perfectly fine. By the time they join my dogs, it feels natural. Working from home part of the week means your dog gets real, consistent company and attention throughout the day. We go on daily walks, there’s plenty of couch time, and the little things — a change in appetite, a dog who just needs some quiet — never go unnoticed. You’ll get regular photo updates and check-ins throughout the stay, so you’re never left wondering how things are going. I have cameras throughout nearly every room and dogs will be separated/crated if needed when I need to step out, so your dogs will never be left unsupervised. If this sounds like a good fit, reach out! A meet and greet is always the first step to make sure everyone’s comfortable and compatible. I am work from home most days of the week. I can accommodate my work schedule to ensure that I can be home the whole time during your dog’s stay. I have a fenced backyard with a separate potty area. I take my dogs on walks every day as well. Dogs are allowed on furniture and I have separate gated areas so that dogs can acclimate in their own space before joining my dogs.
“I can say enough wonderful things about our experience with Melissa and her husband to take up double the space allowed here for this review. It was so comforting for us to know they were well cared for. We were able to relax and enjoy our time in the city. We received many pictures of the dogs having fun and when we picked them up they were definitely worn out. We will book again!”
About: 15 years of experience with dog sitting/walking. Discount may be give to repeat customers. I speak English, Portuguese, Spanish, and some Russian in case you have limited English and feel comfortable using one of those. I have taken care of old dogs, puppies, dogs small, large, and In between too. I’m extremely responsible with ensuring your pet receives their medication as needed, if needed. I love to walk, but tailor my services to your dogs needs. Want me to have them socialize with my dog, done. Want me to keep the dogs separate, I can do that too. Message me and let me know what you need! Something that separates me from others: I understand some dogs are just vocal and not aggressive. I have experience sitting extremely vocal dogs who most people would think are aggressive, but really they just like to bark. Please disclose if your dog is not good around children when booking! Thank you and I’m looking forward to meeting you and your dog(s). I don’t discriminate based on gender, gender expression, religion, age, sexual orientation, race, or for any other reason. I welcome and respect all people and dogs Stay at home mom with a dog of my own, this allows me to adjust my daily schedule to your pets needs. I go on daily walks when it isn’t too hot. I have a fenced yard and a dog for your dog to socialize, but also have room to keep them separate if preferred. Dogs are fed as much and as often as requested by owner along with the amount of potty breaks. If the pet is house trained they are also allowed to be in the home. I love to give dogs treats so they can expect treats when they are over if approved by you!
“Jasmit and her husband were great welcomed Maxx with open arms. Kept communication and also plenty of pictures. Would def hire them to take care of Maxx again .. Maxx came home a very happy dog.”
“Dalene was great with Yoda. She was very attentive and flexible with us dropping off and picking up times. She took care of our dog very well. Definitely recommend for future stays.”
“Michelle (and Steve), were an absolute godsend for us. We went on a long trip with a peace of mind that is priceless. Michelle sent photos throughout the trip and it was evident that our Izzy was very loved and cared for. Lucy, Michelle‘s sweet lab, was a great companion for Izzy and they became fast friends. We feel so fortunate that we found Michelle and have no doubt that we will have Izzy stay with them again. They provide a safe and very comfortable environment, and they treat pets like they are family.”
“Luke boarded with Dipinthi during X’mas time for 4 nights. She sent regular updates and also organized play dates to keep Luke active. There were updates in the morning and evening with pictures and how Luke does with eating and overall wellbeing. She is a great host and I will return to board again next time. Thanks for accommodating Luke!”
About: I truly love animals, especially dogs. They’re not just pets — they’re family. Caring for them brings me so much joy, and I treat every dog with patience, kindness, and lots of love. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around walks, feedings, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday potty breaks, or evening visits, I make time to give every dog the love, exercise, and reliability they deserve. I care for pets as if they were my own, whether in my home or my client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any specific instructions provided. In my client’s home, I make sure their pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment while keeping the space clean and secure.
