“We got lots of pics and video updates while our sweet girl was loved on whole heartedly. Wonderful family for caring for our baby while we were gone.”
“Eileen and Mike gave our doggie individual attention and great care. She loved them, and they loved her. She was very much at home with them, and my family and I loved visiting with them too! They are just really great people! Recommend them 100%!”
“Megan and her family were great! She has an excellent house for dog sitting with a great fenced backyard for roaming and exercise. She provided regular photos and videos which was very nice because it was hard to be away from our pup over the holidays. Her kids played with our dog and were very affectionate towards her and she seemed to miss all the attention they provided. Megan's own dog Theodore provided the "adult dog" calmness our hyper pup needed. Megan was very responsive and accommodating and we look forward to trusting our dog with her and her family again in the future. I would highly recommend Megan!”
“We cannot recommend Shelley enough! She is very patient with our little pups and treats them like they are their own. She also plays with them and is very attentive to their needs. Thank you!!”
“We love that she sent us pictures and was so flexible! She was very easy to reach and took extra measures to care for our beloved pet! We would absolutely use her again!”
“Such a lovely sitter!! Sam made himself right at home and we received photos throughout his stay which was nice to know that he was enjoying his night and cuddled up in bed. Iolanta has such a sweet dobie and Sam came home and napped for hours. It was a short notice booking and Iolanta was wonderful and set up a video call to meet Sam and I. Would definitely book again and highly recommend!!”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dogsitter than Lori. Our dog, Lily, has a little separation anxiety, so leaving her can be stressful for both us and her. Lori was incredibly patient, caring, and attentive, and Lily absolutely thrived in her care. Lori sent daily updates and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Lily was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I highly recommend Lori and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Sarah took wonderful care of our 7 month old golden retriever while we were on vacation! We got daily updates and pictures. We will definitely book her again for our next vacation! ❤️”
“Rita is an incredible sitter! We had to book her last minute for a 3 night stay without a prior meet and greet, and she handled everything flawlessly. She greeted our dogs, Blue and Leesi, right at the door, sent regular updates and walk photos, and made them feel completely at home. Our pup Blue is a total cuddle bug who struggles to sleep alone, and Rita was sweet enough to let him sleep right with her. She is incredibly kind, highly responsive, and our dogs loved her. Highly recommend!”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received at Estelle and David's home. He seemed happy and we appreciated all the updates while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“As always, Leia had a great stay with Shayne and Adam! I know that when she's there, she's being well taken care of and I don't have to worry :)”
“Debra was wonderful with our 9 month old pup! Our dog was well taken care of and really enjoyed her stay. Debra even taught her a new trick! I’ll definitely be requesting her again!”
“I can't praise Ashlie and Shiloh enough. We got updates and pictures of our Rottweiler Athena every day. They took care of her and made sure she got plenty of exercise and belly rubs. Being a bigger dog most people are scared and don't know how to handle her but all they say was a silly dog who loves to play and gives kisses. We will definitely be reaching out again when we need someone to watch our rottie.”
“Tara was so great with Gizmo! Great communication and updates on how he was doing. He was so happy to see me when I picked him up, but he was running back and forth between me and her, which showed me he was very comfortable and happy there. Would definitely recommend and go back for another trip!”
“Alisha took such good care of Melli and would highly recommend. She was very flexible with timing as we some scheduling change up last min. Would highly recommend!”
“Miriam was fantastic in keeping us updated. Our dog was obviously happy and in good spirits upon pickup. We were grateful for her keeping our dog for the week. Great care overall.”
“Absolutely amazing, incredible and caring! My pup is very difficult and Michael handles her with no problem! We love Michael and recommend him HIGHLY!”
“Paula is Wonderful! She took in our sweet old Gigi on short notice, she is a true dog lover and Gigi took to her immediately. Paula sent us numerous updates and pictures throughout Gigi's stay. She gave her affection, attention and a special spot on the couch, she even gave her a bath. I can't say enough great things about how well she cared for our pup and how much I would recommend her to take excellent care of your puppo.”

“I definitely recommend Stephanie, she took great care of my cat Tsunami, she played with her, petted her and followed all instructions put in rover. Tsunami had a great time with Stephanie, and looked very happy!”
“Sarah and her family welcomed our cat with open arms as their own. This is the first time we have board our cat through Rover and our cat came home stress-free. Sarah kept us informed daily with photos and text. Sarah and her family provided a great experience for us as well as our cat. Thanks for everything and we can't wait to go away once again now that we have a stress-free environment for our fur child to board at.”
“Heidi was quick to respond (even on short notice), punctual for the drop-in appointment for my cats, and sent a bunch of photos, which I really appreciated. She’s kind and my shy cats warmed up to her very quickly. Thank you Heidi!”
About: Hi! My name is Dani, and I’m currently a graduate student looking to earn some extra income doing something I genuinely love — caring for animals. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and since high school I’ve volunteered at animal shelters helping care for dogs and cats of all personalities and needs. I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets, and I always treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, sticking to routines, or just making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, I truly put care and attention into every visit. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and experienced with animals that are shy, energetic, anxious, or need a little extra love. As a grad student, I also have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to your pets and give them the care they deserve. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members!
“I had to leave unexpectedly to visit a sick sister. Chelsea did an amazing job with a very short run through of what my cat needed. In addition my cat is a 9 year old indoor rescue that I have not even had a year, so she is a little leary of people. She took right to Chelsea. Having to leave unexpectedly brought it own challenges and Chelsea went above and beyond in looking out for Luna, my cat. I cannot say enough good things about Chelsea and highly recommend her.”
“Danielle was great! She sent adorable photos of my cat, Milo, playing and kept me updated with helpful, thoughtful messages about how he was doing. I truly appreciated her care and attention. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely book her again!”
About: I've had cats my whole life! I love how cats have their own personalities and would love to take care of your cat per their needs. Cats seem to love me and I hope that I can take care of yours!
“Rose was phenomenal with the cats! She was very attentive and spend lots of time playing with them and giving them pets during her visits. She added tons of photos of the cats to their rover cards each time she came as well. My babies were well taken care of by Rose. I will 100% be booking with her again when I need someone to watch my 4 cats.”
“Courtney was great. Very flexible with adding more drop in visits and the addition of a three month old puppy. Very affordable!! Will definitely use her in the future!”

“Alisha was fantastic, she gave me the piece of mind to trust her with my little girl stormi. It was nice knowing that she was well taken care of since we are not from the area. I would not hesitate in the slightest to ask Alisha to host my doggy again in the future. Thank you again Alisha ! - Stormi and Stormis Dad ??”
“Courtney was amazing with Toto! She kept me updated throughout his stay and sent the sweetest pictures of him playing and having fun with her dogs. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such a caring and loving environment. I could tell he felt right at home. I highly recommend Courtney. She’s responsible, communicative, and clearly loves animals. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Toto!”
“Michael is great, our dog Walter enjoyed his care and felt comfortable in his home. Provided him with attention, walks, and kept us updated with photos. Michael was gracious with our tardiness on pick-up time having dealt with traffic, we are so grateful. Thank you Michael, would definitely utilize services again.”
“Maya did such a great job providing a wonderful environment for my pup to both play and relax! She was communicative, confident, and great with my dog. Would absolutely use her services again.”
“Great first visit!! Estelle is very inviting and we were very comfortable leaving Cheyenne there for the first time. Looking forward to more stays!”
“Thanks so much for taking care of Max & Winston on a short notice. They seem to have had a blast they passed out for most of our journey towards which was much needed as we were also beat up from hiking the incline. We hope to visit again and will keep in touch-fingers crossed. All the best!”
About: I’ve had family dogs since I was a child and am very passionate about providing dogs the love and attention they need. I walk my own dog daily and know the importance of good health and exercise. I’m happy to treat your dog as my own and make sure he/she is loved and cared for. I’ve trained dogs from puppyhood and have watched friends’ dogs too. I work from home so am able to spend a lot of time with my own dog and the dogs I care for. I take my own dog Layla on a daily walk, sometimes twice a day. We like to go around the neighborhood. I ‘make sure to follow directions from my clients regarding feeding schedules, walking and play time. I consider preferences carefully to make the dog follows home training routine and feels comfortable.
“Taylor was such an amazing and attentive sitter for my dog! She provided many updates/pictures and was very timely with her responses. Puggie had such a fun time!! ? Thank you!”
About: Desde mi niñez he compartido mi vida con animales, lo que me ha dado una comprensión intuitiva de sus necesidades y un profundo respeto por su bienestar. Para mí, cuidar a tu mascota no es un trabajo, es una extensión natural de mi propia vida con compañeros peludos. Ofrezco una atención compasiva y adaptada a la edad de tu peludito. Ya sean paseos lentos o la energía de tu adolescente cochorro. Debido a que mi rutina es flexible y estoy en casa, puedo ofrecer una supervisión continua. Esto significa una respuesta inmediata a cualquier necesidad, ya sea un paseo inesperado, un juego, o simplemente estar ahí para aliviar la ansiedad por separación. Adaptabilidad Total: Puedo integrar perfectamente las necesidades específicas de tu mascota (horarios de comida estrictos, paseos frecuentes, sesiones de entrenamiento cortas) en mi día sin que se conviertan en una interrupción, sino en la estructura normal de mi tiempo en casa. En resumen, mi rutina diaria gira en torno a asegurar que las mascotas a mi cargo reciban atención, estructura y compañía constante, porque siempre estoy aquí." Mi casa es espaciosa, ofreciendo un excelente ambiente interior. Además, cuento con un pequeño patio para salidas rápidas y supervisadas. Lo mejor es que estamos rodeados de lugares muy lindos para pasear, por lo que aseguramos variedad y estimulación física diaria.
“Jennifer provided excellent doggy daycare for our 6 month old puppy. Our pup was excited to go each day, which shows she had a great time. Jennifer had great communication and provided frequent updates. Overall, she made me feel so comfortable, and we will be using her again in the future.”
About: I have had family dogs and cats for over 15 years, have had my own dog for 6 years and a pair of rats and hamsters, and have worked professionally in an animal shelter in Kansas where we provided care for dogs and cats of all ages (newborn to end of life) and special care for those with special needs as well as boarding for animals with owners needing a trusted provider to care for their animals while they’re unavailable. I often pet sit for family and friends and I am mostly always at home. I currently stay at home. I have my own dog, my corgi. As well as my 2-year old son, loves our dog and has done well with other dogs that have stayed with us. I have a walking trail behind my apartment so we frequently gear up and go on walks around the neighborhood, although we also enjoy days in — just depends on what we feel like doing that day. I have plenty of time to give scheduled medication or food or exercise or diaper changes if needed for pets. Apartment living so no yard but yes to two closed-off balconies that would be available for pets to use to look out and relax at while staying with us, also walking trail in the back and a fenced-in dog park in our apartment complex. When inside — which will be the case unless owner wants otherwise such as indoor/outdoor use of the balcony, pets are allowed in all areas of the house unless closed off to my own son but usually wherever my dog is allowed any pet is allowed, also allowed on beds and couches but not counters or tables (pet will be redirected no big deal). Water is available all day, I do not leave food out for my own dog but have an area your pet can stay at if needing a longer time to eat any meals given, if pet is a grazer that can be accommodated for as well. If a bath is needed due to accidents it will be given if pet is friendly and allows me to bathe them. I will also work with pets that aren’t spayed/neutered since my own dog is spayed but will ensure no female or male is being taken care of by me unless one is fixed or they’re all males/all females being taken care of that day. I will mostly be seeing small-medium sized dogs for pet sitting.
About: If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets as if they were their own, you’ve found the right person. My name is Nicolette, and I believe animals deserve attentive, calm, and compassionate care. I have over 20 years of experience caring for animals and 3 years of experience on Rover. After taking a brief break, I returned to pet care after fostering with AZ Husky Rescue and Saving One Life. These experiences reinforced my commitment to providing safe, structured, and loving care. I currently live in a home with three dogs and one cat. All resident pets are well-socialized, friendly, and accustomed to other animals. To ensure safety and individualized attention, I accept one client household at a time. I work from home, which allows me to be fully present and attentive to your pet’s needs, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, and comfort throughout the day. I have a secure fenced yard and supplies on hand in case of emergencies. For overnight stays, pets must be crate trained, and I have a crate large enough for larger dogs if needed. My goal is to provide a calm, structured, and loving environment so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are safe, cared for, and happy. I work from home so I will be able to be attentive to your pets needs 24/7. I will be able to stick to their feeding schedule, regular potty breaks, and walks if needed. I have a fenced yard and plenty of supplies on hand in case of emergencies. If needed, I have a crate big enough for large dogs.
“Ashlie and Shiloh are awesome! Pomni had such a great time playing all day, they sent lots of pictures and communicated with us about everything! Really appreciate knowing Pomni had a good day while I was away!😊”
“Joo was great. Responded quickly and was easy to work with, flexible! My pup did well with Joo as she made Mika feel right at home. Thanks Joo for your loving care with Mika!”
“Our pup Millie had an excellent afternoon at Sarah's place. She loved playing with Tex and Moose in her spacious, grassy backyard. It was fully fenced with 6ft wood fencing and the gate was well secured. Millie was also permitted inside the house where Sarah conveniently had an extra crate for Millie to take a nap in. Millie was a happy pup upon our return, and we’d definitely use Sarah’s services again. Sarah was responsive in messaging and provided us with photos/videos throughout Millie’s stay. Also, she was accommodating as our scheduled time needed to be shifted a little. All in all, a good experience. Thanks Sarah!”
“I appreciated Erica’s willingness to book daycare last minute. She took great care of Rosie and provided a safe place for her to hang out with people. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Erica again. Thanks for taking care of Rosie.”

About: I have cared for dogs and cats of various sizes and ages for the last 26 years. I have walked, fed and provided enrichment for my own pets and those of family, neighbors and friends. I am currently working part time as a personal caregiver and have plenty of time to fill. I would love to use that time to visit and play with your pet. I will ensure that your pet is safe in their home environment and securely leashed while we are going for a walk. I took classes with two of my own dogs on walking etiquette
“Stephanie has been reliable, a great communicator, and our dog loves her! She gives him plenty of water breaks on their walks together. I’m so happy we have found her! I recommend her to anyone who needs a kind person to help out with their pets.”
“Thank you so much!!!! Really appreciate how you are always so enthusiastic and prompt, Hobbes loves walking with you!!! Really appreciate you going the extra mile and bringing in the groceries for me today :-)”
“Vivian is amazing! She goes above and beyond to care for my dog (Rook) when I’m away. She truly cares about the well-being of your pet by catering to the their needs. I really appreciated her attention to detail, asking questions about his walking style, feeding times, etc… I highly recommended Vivian to all pet owners in the Springs area!”
“Savanna took my dogs out during a pretty hot part of the day, at my request. The dogs feet were getting hot so she stopped the walk and just played with them inside. Great insight and care on her part.”
“Had the privilege of having Lexi walk Jenga for the past 5 months during the afternoons and she’s been nothing but professional and a delight for Jenga, would absolutely recommend for anyone who may be too busy during the day to give their pup a walk!”
“Sarah and Patrick are great!! They have made me feel so comfortable about leaving my dog home during the day because I know he’s going to get a nice long walk! They truly treat my sweet pup like he’s their own😊”
“Arianna is dependable, detail oriented, and communicates very well. My German shepherd loved his time with her and we look forward to our future bookings! Thanks so much Arianna - I know Olaf is in good hands with you.”

I would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family members! As a graduate student completing my degree online, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to your pets throughout the day. I also go to the gym daily for about an hour and a half, which fits easily into my routine while still allowing plenty of availability for walks, playtime, feeding schedules, drop-ins, and overnight care. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I love being able to spend my time with pets while also earning extra income during grad school. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I always follow routines carefully, pay close attention to behavior and surroundings, and make responsible decisions to keep everyone safe — including your pets, your home, and myself. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, anxious, or needs extra patience, I provide attentive and compassionate care at all times.
“Snow loves Rose, and it’s easy to see why. She takes such thoughtful, loving care of her, and we’re deeply grateful to have her as part of our little family.😊”
About: I've had dogs and cats usually both at the same time as my children were growing up. Since early 70's. I loved them and they seem to like me ok. The last dog I had was a Border Collie rescue that I adopted in Omaha 2017 she was found in Louisiana. Her and I moved to Colorado in 2020. She was very sweet and also loved other animals in the building where we lived including cats. Sadly, she passed 2024. We could communicate just with body language and looking into each other's eyes as I spoke to her. I still interact with all the dogs in the building when I see them. We would also go on hikes up at Palmer Park on the off-leash dog trail. Made a lot of friends with dogs there as well. I now live with my children and their 3 cats. They are very sweet also. Lots of cuddle time. Our pets just need love and attention and know that we care. So, I do tend to spoil them while abiding by the rules. I do have obligations a couple of times a week during the day. I'm usually gone about 2-3 hours when that happens. Evening meetings twice a month for couple of hours. I will do errands and help friends out from time to time. However, when I am scheduled to take care of a pet I work my schedule around them. Thursday mornings are the only day I cannot reschedule but I'm only gone for 2-3 hours average. Take the dogs for walks if client wishes / allows. Pay attention to cats and dogs so they don't feel alone. Stick to the routine the clients have set for them. Also change cats litter boxes when needed.
About: I have previously volunteered with a county SPCA organization taking dogs out for car rides and walks. And giving cats the love they needed during a very unsettled time for them. In homes, I have cared for up to 3 dogs (each about 100 pounds) and cats at a time, dropping in two or three times a day when the owners were away for work or vacations. I would refill food and water, play with the animals, and let them out for toilet breaks/ clean the litter box, and water plants. I have had dogs for about 10 years, and I have dog/cat sat on and off while going to school for just as long. I have also aced Rover's Safety Quiz for recognizing behaviors and keeping your animal safe. I work part-time leaving ample time to do pop-ins and walks. I'm available: Mon-Thurs: before 8:45am and after 1pm Fri and Sat: before 8:45am and after 6:30pm Sun: All day I prefer to meet you and your animals first, so that we can establish trust and go over any specifics for your fur baby. Taking care of animals in their usual environment allows them not to stray from routine and gives them a sense of ease. For added peace of mind. When I am caring for your animals, I will not be caring for anyone else's. You can rest easy knowing that when we are on a walk I am only walking your fur babies.
“I have had Kara walk my Solita twice now and she is excellent . Kara always communicates well with us and is incredibly professional . Kara takes great care of my pup and is someone who I would trust with any pup. I highly recommend Kara to anyone who is looking for a responsible, trustworthy , and professional dog walker.”
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages. I have three dogs of my own—two that are a year old or younger and one senior dog—so I’m comfortable meeting the different needs that come with each stage of life. From energetic puppies who need patience, training reinforcement, and lots of exercise to senior dogs who require a gentler pace and extra attention, I understand how to provide the right care. I walk my dogs every morning, so regular exercise and maintaining a consistent routine are already a part of my daily life. I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owner is away. I’ll care for your pets as if they were my own, while keeping you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m currently a college student and attend classes three days a week, which leaves me available in the afternoons. On my days off, I enjoy taking my three dogs to the park or on long walks to keep them active, happy, and mentally stimulated. Caring for my own dogs every day has made pet care a regular part of my lifestyle. Whether your pet needs exercise, playtime, feeding, companionship, or extra attention, I’m committed to providing reliable, loving care that fits their routine and helps them feel comfortable while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and plenty of love and attention. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pet is happy and well cared for. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with regular potty breaks, daily walks, playtime, fresh water, and lots of affection. Since I have three friendly dogs of my own, I always make sure introductions are done carefully and that every pet feels comfortable and secure. My goal is to give pets a stress-free experience where they feel safe, loved, and right at home.
About: I specialize in small and medium dogs, along with seniors and special needs dogs. I've worked from home for 15+ years, which means constant, cozy company for your dog, with no long stretches alone. - I currently only board small dogs overnight and can accept small and medium dogs for drop-in daycare in my home. - I can walk and drop in your home for dogs of all sizes. I've also volunteered with birds and horses, so patience and hands-on care come naturally to me. After adopting my sweet senior dog at age 14, I stayed by his side until he passed at 17. Caring for dogs now is how I honor his memory. I'd love to spoil your pup while you're away. Because I work from home full-time, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine. Your dog will have constant 24/7 companionship, regular gentle potty breaks, and a calm, cozy environment. I have two friendly, medium-sized dogs who are crate-trained and great with small and senior pups. For complete safety and comfort, any dog I sit stays right by my side and is never left alone with other pets. I focus on creating a secure, low-stress environment for every pet. When hosting in my home, guest dogs receive constant supervision, stay with me all day long, and have access to a safe, fully fenced yard for fresh air and gentle potty breaks. My own two dogs are friendly, well-mannered, and crate-trained, ensuring smooth boundaries and a calm atmosphere. Whether in my home or yours, I respect every dog’s individual pace, mobility needs, and daily routine, and I am happy to accommodate special care/needs for senior dogs and dogs of all ages.
“We just brought home a corgi puppy and Tonya has been amazing with him. Super patient and loving on our new boy. She's also been able to manage any issues our old GSD has with his new baby brother.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember and caring for them has always been a huge part of my life. When I lived in Tennessee, I was the go-to dog walker and pet sitter in my neighborhood and was consistently booked every single day. I also worked at a veterinary clinic for three years during school breaks, which gave me hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, temperaments, and care needs. I currently have a Border Collie that I trained myself, along with a German Shorthaired Pointer, so I’m very familiar with high-energy breeds and the importance of both physical activity and mental stimulation. I’m active, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals of all kinds. Right now, I’m studying full-time for my physical therapy boards, which gives me a very flexible schedule to provide reliable and consistent care. I’m observant, responsible, and truly treat every pet like my own—with patience, care, and lots of love. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m currently studying full-time for my physical therapy boards, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. I plan my study blocks around walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent attention and care. I’m already used to an active routine with my own dogs, so adding walks, outdoor time, and structured play is something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, and evening needs, and I’m reliable when it comes to maintaining a pet’s normal schedule. Overall, pet care isn’t something I “fit in”, it’s something I intentionally build my day around to ensure pets get the time, attention, and care they deserve. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, personality, and needs. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule—feeding times, walks, play, and any medications—while also keeping the space clean and secure. I’m very communicative and will send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. They get plenty of exercise, structured play, and a safe, supervised environment. I’m especially experienced with high-energy dogs, so I make sure they get both physical activity and mental stimulation. I’m always observant of behavior, appetite, and overall health to ensure pets stay happy and safe. Whether in my home or yours, I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely care about making pets feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for.

“We got lots of pics and video updates while our sweet girl was loved on whole heartedly. Wonderful family for caring for our baby while we were gone.”
“Megan and her family were great! She has an excellent house for dog sitting with a great fenced backyard for roaming and exercise. She provided regular photos and videos which was very nice because it was hard to be away from our pup over the holidays. Her kids played with our dog and were very affectionate towards her and she seemed to miss all the attention they provided. Megan's own dog Theodore provided the "adult dog" calmness our hyper pup needed. Megan was very responsive and accommodating and we look forward to trusting our dog with her and her family again in the future. I would highly recommend Megan!”
“We love that she sent us pictures and was so flexible! She was very easy to reach and took extra measures to care for our beloved pet! We would absolutely use her again!”
“Such a lovely sitter!! Sam made himself right at home and we received photos throughout his stay which was nice to know that he was enjoying his night and cuddled up in bed. Iolanta has such a sweet dobie and Sam came home and napped for hours. It was a short notice booking and Iolanta was wonderful and set up a video call to meet Sam and I. Would definitely book again and highly recommend!!”
“Sarah took wonderful care of our 7 month old golden retriever while we were on vacation! We got daily updates and pictures. We will definitely book her again for our next vacation! ❤️”
“Rita is an incredible sitter! We had to book her last minute for a 3 night stay without a prior meet and greet, and she handled everything flawlessly. She greeted our dogs, Blue and Leesi, right at the door, sent regular updates and walk photos, and made them feel completely at home. Our pup Blue is a total cuddle bug who struggles to sleep alone, and Rita was sweet enough to let him sleep right with her. She is incredibly kind, highly responsive, and our dogs loved her. Highly recommend!”
“We were very happy with the care our dog received at Estelle and David's home. He seemed happy and we appreciated all the updates while we were away. Highly recommend!”
“I can't praise Ashlie and Shiloh enough. We got updates and pictures of our Rottweiler Athena every day. They took care of her and made sure she got plenty of exercise and belly rubs. Being a bigger dog most people are scared and don't know how to handle her but all they say was a silly dog who loves to play and gives kisses. We will definitely be reaching out again when we need someone to watch our rottie.”
“Tara was so great with Gizmo! Great communication and updates on how he was doing. He was so happy to see me when I picked him up, but he was running back and forth between me and her, which showed me he was very comfortable and happy there. Would definitely recommend and go back for another trip!”
“Absolutely amazing, incredible and caring! My pup is very difficult and Michael handles her with no problem! We love Michael and recommend him HIGHLY!”
“Paula is Wonderful! She took in our sweet old Gigi on short notice, she is a true dog lover and Gigi took to her immediately. Paula sent us numerous updates and pictures throughout Gigi's stay. She gave her affection, attention and a special spot on the couch, she even gave her a bath. I can't say enough great things about how well she cared for our pup and how much I would recommend her to take excellent care of your puppo.”
“Briana has watched our girl a few times now! She is great and sends a photo everyday. She is also also willing to be flexible with the timing. Zayda loves playing with her dogs! Thank you!”
“Amazing service! It was our first time using Rover for our pup and it couldn’t have been smoother. Lexi was very communicative and sent daily pictures and videos of our girl. Lexi even baked homemade dog treats for Sunday to take home with her. Thankful for Lexi!”
“Christy took great care of our pup while we were away! She was always quick to respond, flexible and kind. She gave us updates throughout our trip. Aspen came home worn out and happy. We will definitely be booking with her again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Sean and Melissa were superb in taking care of my very active Airedale Terrier puppy, Piper!! They understood her breed and treated her like part of the family!! She was with them for TWO WEEKS while I was visiting my kids in Florida! I was so happy to find such a great loving family that understands rules and boundaries for a puppy!! I'll be taking her to them again for daycare and for any other trip that I make. I really appreciated their strong boundaries and limitations!!! They are great doggie parents!!!”
“It's not easy for me to leave my dogs with someone, especially someone I don't personally know, but I am so glad I was able to connect with Sarah to watch my dogs. My girls were loved and spoiled for the four days they stayed with her. You can feel the care she has for the pups she's watching through her updates and photos. Highly recommend you give her a chance when looking for trusted care for your dogs!”
“Jennifer was so easy to work with, even on a last minute reservation. She was communicative, kind, and a great experience all around. We received photos each day with an update. Her house and yard were great for our pup and we would absolutely use her again! THANK YOU!”
“April and her family were wonderful to both of our dogs (Miko & Kobe)! She was communicative and sent daily updates with several photos, which was great! I can tell both dogs were treated well and received lots of love and snuggles. I would highly recommend April!”
“My dog Maya had a great stay here! She was spoiled in the best way and came home happy and tired. Loved getting pictures and updates along the way and communication was great the whole time. Would definitely have her stay with Breanna anytime!”
