“This was our fourth time booking Mary Ann to care for our elderly pup and once again, she delivered in spades! Over the years, our dog has boarded at various kennels and veterinary offices, but none those experiences with trained professionals could hold a candle to the services Mary Ann provides. I fear we have become too spoiled and now we will never be satisfied with anyone else ever again! Mary Ann is kind, professional, clean, and extremely skilled with pet care. She is the very best and we look forward to using her services again!”

“Janice took care of our three dogs and two cats for a little less than a week and we can't say enough about how perfect and stress free our experience was! Her house is full of love and care for animals and I am so lucky to have found her for our own. We highly recommend her services!”
“Kristina and Jordan took such amazing care of my pup while I was away. Kristina and Jordan treated her with so much love, and sent many pictures and videos during the stay. I’m definitely an anxious pet parent, but their care actually allowed me to relax knowing that she was in the best hands possible and having a great little vacation of her own. I couldn’t recommend them more. Thank you guys so much!”
“Loretta was wonderful! Buddy had a blast staying with her and playing with the other dogs! Thank you for taking such good care if our boy! Will definitely book again!”

“Best sitter ever. Magnolia has the perfect house set-up for watching dogs. A huge fenced in yard. Plus she and her partner have dog whisperer vibes cos Roo tends to be quite nervous when he first meets people but we were shocked to see him behave like he's know them for ages when we dropped him off. It's so reassuring to finally have an experienced and reliable dog sitter near by!”
“Patricia is conveniently located and a pleasure to work with. She has a calm demeanor and very loving toward Lyla. Her home is set up well to host pets and she is diligent about their care. Clearly pets love her as mine seemed to quickly adapt and was not in a hurry to leave! She’s a terrific choice iof you’re in the Amenia/ Sharon/ Salisbury/ Millbrook etc Ara. Thank you Patricia!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have cared for family and friends pets numerous times. Have experience with training puppies, administering medication, bathing and walking dogs. I am currently working part time during the week but am available on weekdays before 10am and after 3pm. I am also fully available on weekends, leaving plenty of time for enriching play and cuddle time for your furry friends! I bring the pets I care for outside for long walks despite the weather and play with them for as long as they like so they can use all their pent up energy. Every pet I care for receives lots of pets and belly rubs to keep them happy and entertained.
“Donna is absolutely great, very nice, accommodating and very punctual. She sent many pictures with our dog, who seemed very happy and well taken care of. We are very pleased to have met her and shall definitely contact her again for future bookings. Thank you, Donna!”
“Volha, Christian and their 2 daughters have been the best second family for my little guy, Doug. He is an anxious pup and I never have had to worry about his care for the 2 years I’ve been bringing him to them. I very often have to leave for work last minute and Volha has never said no to me. Doug lights up everytime I drop him off and I get the best photos of him snuggling her daughters. Although I just moved out of Bushwick and my new neighborhood isn’t as close, I know I can still bring Doug back to Volha and her family whenever we need!!! Thank you both again!!”
“Karina was wonderful with my Piper. She is an anxious dog and took to her right away on our trial stay. She sent pictures and updates twice a day. We have never been able to leave her with an anyone away from our home. I am very happy we found someone who took amazing care of her. Thank you!”
“Annette was amazing with our puppy! I was really nervous to leave her but she made me feel super comfortable and the puppy had a great time. I’m extremely happy with how Annette interacted with our puppy and the care she gave her. Meeka will definitely be visiting her again.”
“Jeff and Bruce were great about staying in touch with me about my dog and sent pictures as well. They have ample indoor and outdoor space. This was my first time using Rover.com and I am very happy to have found such caring and responsible people to watch my dog.”
“Mary & Todd are a dream come true! We were very nervous leaving our baby with someone we didn’t know, for the first time, and Mary made us feel so beyond comfortable. The photos, updates and check ins made us think Tilly may never want to come back home! Our pup went for rides, walks, runs, errands, ball chases and partook in endless fun for two straight days. I’m not sure how Mary & Todd could possibly have more energy than our dear Tilly but she’s officially exhausted and had the adventure of a lifetime. My husband joked that we should do this as a doggy camp once a month, we just may ask if they’d be down!”

“Ashley was amazing! We were in constant communication, she sent a ton of pictures, and I could enjoy being away knowing my three kitties were well taken care of. There was inclement weather and she still found a way to get to my place and take care of my kitties. Thank you so much Ashley!!”
About: I have cats of my own and have experience in caring for both young and elderly cats. I have taken care of timid, shy, and outgoing kitties and know when to respect their space or give them some love. I am able to clean litter boxes, offer enriching play time, and administer medicine.
About: Hi there, I’m Chrissie, a dog lover with 15 years of pet care experience! Beyond prior pet care and volunteer experience, I’ve had plenty of foster dogs and my own, one less than active dog currently making it all the more fun for me to keep active dogs busy. I can care for and work with dogs with most any need both health wise and behaviorally. I love getting to know dogs of all ages, sizes and personalities and will be sure to follow any routine and needs they have as instructed. Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions if I might be a fit for what you’re looking for whether a one-time or regular need. Always happy to do a free meet-and-greet as well. Wishing you the best as you find the right care for your furry family member(s)! Although notice is great, I am happy to take last minute bookings. With my work I can easily fit my schedule to your dog's typical exercise, engagement, and feeding routine. I would care for them however you request, and however they’re used to being taken care of. I’d follow whatever care instructions you provide along with any notes shared with me during our meet and greet.
“Rachel was ideal in every way! Great communication, totally responsible, left the house in beautiful condition, made the cat fall in love with her. My time away was stress-free knowing that Rachel was caring for my guy Herbie.”
“Rhonda was great! Even got our very skittish cat to come out of hiding the first day we were gone and within a couple of days he was allowing her to pet him and play with him some! I did NOT expect that and it was great to see that he was not just well cared for but happy too!”
“Christine bailed us out at the last minute and totally saved us. She was just great, and I think our cats even decided they like her better than they like us. Couldn't be happier that we have made this connection.”
About: 🐾 Whether your family includes playful pups, curious cats, chatty birds, colorful fish, happy chickens, friendly goats, tiny hamsters, busy gerbils, or any other beloved pets, I care for them with the same love and attention I would give my own. I know there's no substitute for you, but while you're away, I will make sure your furry, feathered, and four-legged friends receive plenty of care, companionship, playtime, cuddles, and personalized attention to keep tails wagging and hearts happy. And because caring for a home goes hand in hand with caring for pets, I am also happy to help with everyday household tasks like watering plants, bringing in mail, managing trash and recycling, hanging pictures, and tackling small repairs. My goal is simple: happy pets, a cared-for home, and complete peace of mind for you. 🐾❤️🏡
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and took the responsibility of taking care of and training our family dogs. They all turned out great with my first dog becoming a therapy dog helping children. Can’t imagine a world without a dog by your side! I currently work in a school system so during holidays, school breaks, and the summer I’m the most free but can always help once I get out of school as well. Great backyard with a pup to play with. Lots of shade and fencing. Many toys and such to play with as well. Great spot for dogs to relax.
About: We have a beloved Cat named Chocolate, my daughters named her Chocolate because they “really love Chocolate”! I also have 2 small senior dogs that get along with cats. I have never met an animal that I don’t like…dog, cat, farm animal or wild animal. They all are special and a pet is absolutely a family member. I whole heartedly understand the love of a pet and promise to treat them as part of my family while they’re in my care.
About: I love talking to cats, petting cats, watching them,and really anything Cat related. Bottom line is, I’m a cat lover and if you hire me, your cat will tell you that I have been his/her/their favorite pet sitter. I’ve had cats my whole life and will have them for the rest of my life. My current cats are Callie and Lyra.
About: I’ve had cats since I was a little girl and have always loved caring for them. Over the years, I’ve also cared for many cats beyond my own and understand how important patience, comfort, and routine are for them. I’m very experienced, careful, and attentive to each cat’s personality and needs. Whether your cat is shy, playful, independent, or needs extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve owned and cared for many an animal over the years. Horses, birds, lizards, rats, dogs, cats, you name it! A warm snuggle with a fluffy biscuit-maker is always the best way to end a long day, and I can assure that your pet will be at peak kneading performance for when you get home!
“Lindsay did such a good job with Lily! She came over 3 times a day to let feed her, take her out, and exercise her. She has an incredible presence with dogs. Lily took to her immediately and she usually takes a long time with new people! I definitely plan on using Lindsay to help take care of my dogs in the future! She is always available and goes above and beyond when caring for your dog! I would trust her with my beloved Lily any day!”
“She was awesome taking care of our cats! She’s very good at giving oral medication so I felt comfortable with her giving meds to our boy. Thank you so much!!”
“Janice is fantastic. I was in desperate need of a cat sitter for an emergency trip just days away. Janice responded right away and arranged a meet and greet for the next day. She connected with my cat (who is usually a little shy of strangers) right away, and I immediately relaxed knowing he and my home would be in good hands. Janice was very communicative and took care of everything. I came home to a happy boy who had clearly had fun playing while we were away, and I am so grateful to her. I will definitely entrust Janice again for future pet care needs.”

About: Grew up on a farm caring for animals since my youth. now enjoy the company of visiting dogs, just like I had with my own. I currently work part-time and many situations able to bring a boarding dog with me; as I work with mostly older folks who would love the sweetness of a dog visit; considered therapy. I have a side fenced yard, safe from the road, and only do private walks in a comfortable grass field near my home, leashed and one at a time for individual attention.
“Cindy is terrific! She is knowledgable, kind, and a very sweet person who clearly loves dogs. My pup Henry had a great first stay, and I would absolutely bring him back for another day of fun and play when we are in town again! :)”
“Thank you, Peter, for taking such good care of Minnie! She had a great time hiking and monitoring those rabbits and came home a tired and happy dog. She was in a beautiful and safe place and we will look forward to return visits.”
“We were in town for an event and needed someone to watch our 5 month old puppy for the day. Christine was perfect! She is so nice and has a friendly boxer puppy. My puppy can be aloof with strangers but he took to Christine immediately even letting her hold him right away. Christine's yard is perfect and our puppies played all day. I would go back to Christine's anytime we are back in Queens.”

Communication is very important to us, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pets are being cared for like family. I’m currently home full-time with my two boys, which gives me a very flexible and reliable schedule for pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and whatever your pet may need throughout the day.

“I was nervous to leave my 4 month old puppy Eva for the first time, but Janice made me feel so comfortable. Eva is a party girl and had the best time with Janice's fur and human family, she didn't want to leave! Grateful to have a second home for Eva”
About: I've taken care of dogs for the past 8 years. We (my husband and I) have rescued and adopted 3 dogs all within the past 5 years. We live on a large piece of land and have plenty of room to play fetch and go on walks. We even have a stream for a little dip or sip. We are patient and love to play over here. I believe cuddles and attention are extremely important! I work from home so I am around a lot and am always with the dogs, they are never alone. I am able to take them out regularly for walks and to play. We tend to go outside quite a bit on a nice day. I have a large property away from the road. We have a gate and a meadow nestled back in the woods where there are no cars in sight. We have a small fenced in area if that is what a particular dog needs to spend some time outside.
About: I have over 30 years experience with dogs working with my mother who bred Golden Retrievers since 1990 at Maplenook Goldens. I've also worked through my college years with over 5 families pet and house sitting and loved it! Also worked with Ledgewood Kennels and taken obedience and breed handling classes at Southlands in Rhinebeck NY. I would love to have a part time job and working and training dogs is my dream job. I’ve been working on getting my Dog training certificate to teach classes or work with individuals who needs help. I have two beautiful friendly Golden females that are like my children, both spayed. We have a fenced in yard where we play, go for walks around the neighborhood, celebrate their doggy birthdays. We do weekly obedience training, scent training, and lots of playing! The same care and love I give to my girls is the same I'd give to your fur babies.
“Kennedy has a fabulous time with Samantha and Michael and their adorable kids! We got updates and pictures and they were very quick to respond. We were very happy and would highly recommend them! Kennedy would love to come back to play!”
“Rosalie was SO GOOD and patient with our nervous chihuahua. She sent great updates and he had a lovely time in her home and fenced yard. We highly recommend her for dogs of all sizes! :)”
About: My own dogs are always the #1 teacher. They show me how to best care for them - with food, play, training, medications, travel, sleepless days and nights when they've been ill, and giving them all them comfort I can. I've volunteered at dog shelters, spent hours walking dogs in all kinds of weather, and offered comfort to friends who've had to say goodbye to their best fur friends. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets plenty of attention - playing, feeding, and scratching behind the ears. I take my dog for swims in the river, off leash romps in the woods, and leashed walks around town. We also play fetch and tug-of-war in the house or on the deck. If your dog needs a playmate, my dog, Jackson, may be a good fit. My cats - depending on their mood - like to lounge in the sun, pounce on the occasional toy, run up stairs, and hunt for treats I've hidden for them.
About: Every dog deserves a safe, loving home while you're away, and I'm here to help! I've been a dog lover my entire life and currently care for two of my own: Bear, my sweet and cuddly 10-year-old black Pomeranian, and Maggie, my energetic and affectionate English Springer Spaniel. I split my time between the Upper East Side and a beautiful 17-acre farm in Upstate New York—truly a dog’s paradise. Whether your pup enjoys romping around our vast yard or relaxing in the peaceful countryside, it's the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. I love dogs of all breeds and ages and can't wait to meet your furry friend! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. As a dedicated pet owner and caregiver, I prioritize giving each pet the attention, exercise, and care they need throughout the day. Whether I’m caring for my own dogs or a client’s pet, I make sure to schedule regular walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddle sessions to keep them happy and healthy. I prioritize safety and trust above all when caring for pets, whether at my home or in my client’s home. In my home, pets have a secure, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of space to roam, both indoors and outdoors on our 17-acre farm. I closely monitor pets at all times to ensure their safety and well-being, offering regular playtime, walks, and attention to their specific needs. For in-home visits, I take care to follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, maintaining consistency with feeding, exercise routines, and any medications. I always ensure that the home is secure during my visits and that pets feel comfortable and relaxed in their own familiar surroundings. Communication with the owner is key, and I provide regular updates to ensure peace of mind.
“I contacted Loretta last minute asking if she could watch my dog Basil. She responded quickly and was able to accommodate an all day dog sit. Loretta sent me lots of pictures and updates of Basil and her sweet dog Paprika hanging out. I would highly recommend Loretta for your next dog sit!”
About: Ever since I was young, I have had a strong love for animals, especially dogs. I grew up surrounded by dogs and currently have two of my own. Over the years, I have pet-sat for neighbors and friends, and I always enjoy caring for and spending time with their pets. At college I am part of a club where we work with and volunteer at the local animal shelters. There are photos on my profile that highlight some of the events on campus I have volunteered at to raise money for the puppies at the local animal shelter. I do also have experience with horses. My experience has strengthened my passion for working with animals and reinforced my commitment to providing them with attentive, compassionate care. I currently have a lot of availability to be able to take care of your pets. I can board and attend to your pets any day of the week. I have a fenced-in backyard and two dogs of my own as well. I have a 10-month-old male English Bulldog and a 3-year-old female French Bulldog. They are both very friendly and love playing with other dogs. At your residence, I will respect any boundaries you may have and provide the best service I can.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs on and off for years and I’ve had a couple of my own. Would be happy to host your pet for a day or a few days, whatever your need is. I am fully retired at this time and will have plenty of time to play with and care for your pet. I am available weekdays and nights as well as some weekends. I am also available to watch them at your house as well if you’d prefer. I am happy to follow your feeding schedule and to take your pet for a daily walk. There are no young children or anyone else living in the house except me.

“Ashley is a delight. She was very communicative and caring about our elderly dog with special needs. We only needed her to come and take him for a walk, but he is blind and deaf and also wears a diaper. She let us know when she got to our house and sent pictures afterwards. We felt very comfortable with her and will definitely be using her again.”
“Chrissie has been walking Summer for nearly 3 weeks now and has been a tremendous help in making sure Summer gets some exercise & TLC while I am at work. If you need someone to care for your pup while you're otherwise occupied, Chrissie is the best choice and will treat your dog like she's her own. I can't recommend her highly enough!”
About: Please note: Pricing can be flexible depending on the situation, length of stay, and number of pets. I’m always happy to talk through the details! I’ve been pet sitting for over 15 years and animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’m one of those people who naturally gravitates toward dogs wherever I go. I also have six dogs of my own (including large breeds), so managing different personalities, routines, and energy levels is something I’m very comfortable with. These days I focus on in-home pet sitting, because most pets are happiest staying in their own space and keeping their normal routine. I know how hard it can be to leave your animals when you travel, so my goal is always to make it feel like they’re just hanging out with a friend who loves dogs as much as you do. I have experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages — from energetic young pups to seniors who need a little extra patience and care. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following detailed instructions to make sure everything stays consistent while you’re away. I’m very attentive and tend to get pretty attached to the animals I care for. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy, safe, and getting lots of attention while you’re gone. If you’re looking for someone experienced, reliable, and genuinely excited to spend time with your pets, I’d love to connect. Pet care is part of our everyday life! My wife and I both work remotely about 90% of the week, which gives us plenty of time and flexibility to care for our own six dogs — and any visiting pets, too. Our days naturally revolve around feeding, walks, playtime, and snuggles, so incorporating other pets into that rhythm fits right in. In our home, pets are treated like family. We have a spacious, safe property with fenced areas for play and exercise, and we keep routines consistent with what each pet is used to, including feeding schedules, walks, and downtime. Since my wife and I both work from home most of the week, someone is almost always here to give attention and care. For client homes, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible - from meals and walks to playtime and cuddles - to keep them comfortable and stress-free in their own environment.

About: As a retired Registered Nurse and a caretaker for my senior dog, I am comfortable with senior dogs, meds, general assessments and caring for special needs dogs and cats. As a country mom of four children, we had two horses, chickens, four rabbits, three cats and at times snakes and salamanders under my kids’ bed...without knowing…at any time, any of these critters if not already in our house, could be in our house! My longest sit was three months as a ranch sitter in Colorado, I cared for two horses, two donkeys, chickens, three sheep, two lambs, a cat and dog. Currently, I sit locally for friends and family…walks, day care and overnights. I’m available most days to walk, play, sit or just hang out with your pets! I do travel to see family, best for all to reach out ahead of your desired dates and services. I am available on a case by case basis for overnight sits in my home. Currently, I don’t have a dog or a cat which gives me flexibility. My yard is not fenced, I walk all dogs on the leash. I take the lead/instructions from the owners. I suggest we all meet before any service and if needed we meet a few times in order for the pet and parents to feel safe and comfortable.

I can accommodate early risers (starting from 6am) to late bloomers (your pup can sleep in until 10am!). Every weekend, I take Sunny and any visiting pups to the Salisbury Community Dog Park in CT. I live in a spacious, clean three-story home in Amenia. Your pup or cat is welcome to the couch. I rarely watch TV, so the space is nice and quiet. We have a spacious (unfenced) backyard, so I’m happy to walk dogs out there, but never without a leash. For any first-time cat visitors who might be a bit timid, I have a quiet guest bedroom with a comfy bed — he or she can call it their private room as they acclimate to their new surroundings. 👑😊
“We met Katie for a meet and greet and scheduled a dog walk together. I have 2 rescues who are both anxious and get nervous with new people. She has been very patient with them and asked lots of questions to better understand their behaviors. Katie has been great with our dogs and they are warming up to her. I will definitely be booking with Katie again.”
About: Hi There! My name is Jaimee and any dog I’ve met I have loved like my own! Growing up, my family always had Golden Retrievers, and I now have two Labrador Retrievers of my own who love meeting new friends to play with! From pet sitting, long or short walks, boarding and of course taking care of our own pets, I have experience with it all! I currently work Full-Time, but have the ability to work from home if needed. I am willing to be available to care for your pups anytime! Safety is one of our top priorities for our animals, so you can expect us to treat your animals with the same mentality. If you have specific safety concerns, we will make sure we document these before hand.
About: I have had dogs my whole life but 2 of my dogs gave birth to 11 puppies in October of 2022 and I helped take care of them all until they were ready to go to their new homes. I kept one of the puppies and have taken care of her since she was a newborn so I am very familiar around all types of dogs. I am currently working part time but am working towards having my own pet business one day. My hope is to meet new people and create lasting relationships that could lead to business opportunities I will make sure your pets are getting enough attention and exercise when you are away and will treat them like they are my own.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for years. Sometimes our four legged friends are the therapy we need in life. Family and friends rely on me to walk,feed and play with their pups and cats. I currently working only part time as I am a mom of 1 son. My schedule is 10-2 so i have flexibility to stay with your pet and give him/and or her love! I will spoil them for sure! Anything that is important or necessary to make you feel safe having me watch your animal; can be accommodated.
About: I’ve always had a passion for animals which brought me into the veterinary field 12 years ago as a kennel attendant, I loved the job however I didn’t feel all the animals boarding were always getting one on one attention. Over the last 12 years I’ve gone to school and graduated as a Veterinary Assistant/Veterinary Technician, currently in school for my B.A in Veterinary Technology. Taking care of animals is truly my passion whether it be in my hospital, at home or for family and friends, all pets truly get treated as if they were my own. It truly gives me joy knowing I’ve made a small difference. With all that has been stated above I do have a full time job as a ER/ICU Veterinary Nurse. Thank you for taking the time to view my profile and the best of luck in your search for the perfect pet sitter My current ER work schedule is Mon-Wed 8am to 6pm and every other Sunday 8am to 4pm. I do have hour lunches if needed. Also I will add since making my profile active again, I am a single mother to a adorable 14 month old little boy. So with that being said I would only be able to book house sittings when he is with his dad. ALL pets in my care are treated like my own. ALL animals in my care are always treated with respect, love and most importantly compassion

“We feel in great hands whenever we leave our dog with John. While we're away he stays in touch with photos and texts and when we return it's always clear that she's had a wonderful time. Thank you, thank you, John!”
“Sadie had a great stay with Christine! Sadie is a little anxious and Christine did a great job making her feel safe and comfortable. Christine was warm and quick to respond and answer questions. She seemed to really appreciate our girl. Would definitely go back!”
“Peter was such a wonderful sitter. His updates were timely and detailed and I felt confident that Nutmeg was cared for, happy, and healthy during her stay. I will definitely ask Peter to sit again if I’m ever in the area again.”
“Janice took care of our three dogs and two cats for a little less than a week and we can't say enough about how perfect and stress free our experience was! Her house is full of love and care for animals and I am so lucky to have found her for our own. We highly recommend her services!”
“Kristina and Jordan took such amazing care of my pup while I was away. Kristina and Jordan treated her with so much love, and sent many pictures and videos during the stay. I’m definitely an anxious pet parent, but their care actually allowed me to relax knowing that she was in the best hands possible and having a great little vacation of her own. I couldn’t recommend them more. Thank you guys so much!”

“Best sitter ever. Magnolia has the perfect house set-up for watching dogs. A huge fenced in yard. Plus she and her partner have dog whisperer vibes cos Roo tends to be quite nervous when he first meets people but we were shocked to see him behave like he's know them for ages when we dropped him off. It's so reassuring to finally have an experienced and reliable dog sitter near by!”
About: I’ve had dogs all my life and have cared for family and friends pets numerous times. Have experience with training puppies, administering medication, bathing and walking dogs. I am currently working part time during the week but am available on weekdays before 10am and after 3pm. I am also fully available on weekends, leaving plenty of time for enriching play and cuddle time for your furry friends! I bring the pets I care for outside for long walks despite the weather and play with them for as long as they like so they can use all their pent up energy. Every pet I care for receives lots of pets and belly rubs to keep them happy and entertained.
“Volha, Christian and their 2 daughters have been the best second family for my little guy, Doug. He is an anxious pup and I never have had to worry about his care for the 2 years I’ve been bringing him to them. I very often have to leave for work last minute and Volha has never said no to me. Doug lights up everytime I drop him off and I get the best photos of him snuggling her daughters. Although I just moved out of Bushwick and my new neighborhood isn’t as close, I know I can still bring Doug back to Volha and her family whenever we need!!! Thank you both again!!”
“Karina was wonderful with my Piper. She is an anxious dog and took to her right away on our trial stay. She sent pictures and updates twice a day. We have never been able to leave her with an anyone away from our home. I am very happy we found someone who took amazing care of her. Thank you!”
“Jeff and Bruce were great about staying in touch with me about my dog and sent pictures as well. They have ample indoor and outdoor space. This was my first time using Rover.com and I am very happy to have found such caring and responsible people to watch my dog.”
“Mary & Todd are a dream come true! We were very nervous leaving our baby with someone we didn’t know, for the first time, and Mary made us feel so beyond comfortable. The photos, updates and check ins made us think Tilly may never want to come back home! Our pup went for rides, walks, runs, errands, ball chases and partook in endless fun for two straight days. I’m not sure how Mary & Todd could possibly have more energy than our dear Tilly but she’s officially exhausted and had the adventure of a lifetime. My husband joked that we should do this as a doggy camp once a month, we just may ask if they’d be down!”
“My two pups had an overnight with James and his family. We have been looking for a new sitter for more than 6 months since ours moved to another state. The girls came back happy and tired. I got updates and photos while they were with him. We will be using James again.”

“Cipriana took excellent care of Dickie. I could feel that he connected with her right away. We had a health concern emerge during his stay, and Cipriana handled everything, including communication, very well. I would like to book with her again.”
