“We had a great experience with Kate! Our dog, Sampson, stayed in her home and was very well cared for. Communication was easy and consistent, and we felt completely comfortable knowing our pup was in good hands. Sampson is pretty easygoing, but it was clear he was treated with attention and kindness. We will definitely book with them again.”
“James took care of Oreo for 2 weeks during the holidays, he was always responsive to messages and send pictures every couple of days! Definitely would recommend! Thanks for all the help”
“Saori was such a great sitter for our pups (1 year old great pyrenees). She took them to the dog park in the morning for a couple of hours, helped continue our invisibile fence training, and sent us so many pics and updates throughout the weekend. I could tell how happy and comfortable our dogs were in her home and under her care. They came home so tired because they had so much fun with her and the other dogs!”
“I can't say enough great things about our experiences with Jennifer. I've left my dog Peachy with her 3 times now, this last time being over a week. I got so many picture and video updates throughout and I could see how comfortable and happy my Peachy was. Jennifer and her daughter are so wonderful with her and I am very grateful to have found them. The peace of mind I have now while I'm away that my dog is well cared for is worth so much. Also, Jennifer was highly communicative and very flexible when my schedule needed to change last minute. I won't leave Peachy with anyone else now!!”
“I was so glad to have found Mary Ann on Rover to watch our dog Piper for 2 weeks while we were on vacation. On our initial visit with Mary Ann, I knew this was a great fit for Piper. She is such a sweet, caring, knowledgeable woman that I knew would take wonderful care of my dog. This was the first time using Rover as I was not comfortable leaving her in a kennel again for this long as my dog gets very anxious and sad when we are away and my usual in house dog sitter was with us on vacation. Mary Ann lives just 10 minutes from my house with a lovely fenced in side yard for her to go to the bathroom outside and just run around not being on a leash, which is just like home. Also being able to jump on the furniture and the beds was a plus too, again just like home. And she did not have any issues getting too anxious which is what I was hoping for. It was a perfect fit and a great find. I would not hesitate to book with Mary Ann again.”
“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!”
“Robin is always so wonderful with our dog, Adelaide. She does regular drop in visits with her so when we need boarding services, Robin is always our first choice! She shows our dog so much care, attention and love.”
“Chestnut had a wonderful experience. I appreciated Lilliana sending me daily pictures of Chestnut so my daughters could see him enjoying his stay. Thank you again Lilliana for taking such great care of chestnut.”
“Alan & Luis take such good care of Cody while we are away. We get up dated pics and videos every day and feed back on how he is doing. It makes us feel secure that Cody is in good hands while we are away. Plenty of activity and interacting with the other dogs . Clean environment and worry free. From my fur baby to you both... thank you for taking such good care of me. Miss you!!”
“Estelle took excellent care of Frannie for the weekend. She was part of the family and I felt reassured and comfortable she was well taken care of and they enjoyed having her there. It is so nice to be able to leave town and not have to worry about your pet. Thank you, Estelle and family!”
“Khanh and Tommy welcomed us into their home for a very last minute boarding request. We received several updates, with pictures and video while we were away. Their love and care was evident and we know Astro had such a fun time! We are so grateful to have found them and we are looking forward to working with them again very soon! Look no further!! This is the right family to take care of your pup(s)!”
“Jess and Ian were wonderful with my two boys. They communicated with me while on vacation and it eased my mind to know they were ok. Wonderful and honest couple”
“Yajaira was excellent. It was my first time boarding my dog. She answered all my questions and I was able to go on my trip knowing my dog was in great hands. She sent daily pictures and updates. My dog was well cared for. I will definitely leave my dog with her again.”
“Nell was friendly, flexible about drop off/pick up, and so kind to our pup for her first stay away from us. Nell made our girl feel right at home and kept her happy in our absence.”
“Kathryn and Jeremy were great, can't recommend them enough. They were extremely communicative both before Bella's stay and during, updating us with pictures etc throughout the day. The couple are very well versed in dog behavior/needs and asked all the right questions to make us feel confident Bella was going to be well cared for and safe. When we picked Bella up she was very comfortable in their home and was resting with Kathryn and Jeremy. If you are looking for trustworthy couple to watch your pup with love and attention, this is it!”

Whether it's playtime, walks, feeding, or cuddles, I'll care for your pet as if they were my own. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I have a pup of my own, and we stay active with daily walks, outdoor time, and enrichment activities. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in or regular walks, I can adjust my schedule to meet their needs and keep them comfortable, happy, and well cared for. How I care for your pet depends entirely on how you'd like me to support them and what makes them most comfortable. In my home, pets are treated like family and receive lots of attention, exercise, and affection. While I do not have a fenced-in yard, all outdoor time is supervised, and dogs will be leash-walked unless they have a proven, reliable recall. I am also happy to follow your pet's existing routines, feeding schedules, training preferences, and any special care instructions in either my home or yours.

About: As a former breeder of Labradors, I have a great deal of experience raising and training dogs. My daughter has her own Rover page and we often work together.

I currently have one 3 year old Labrador and take pride in ensuring she gets lots of exercise and attention. If I'm caring for your pet in my home I always encourage a meet and greet first to be certain my client and his / her pet are comfortable with my home environment.

“Priscilla is kind and bonded with my dog instantly. This is my first time using a service like this and I can't tell you what a relief it is to know my dog is loved by her as much as I do. Highly recommend.”
About: I live on a farm with lots of animals and have been caring for them for as long as I can remember. I love both cats and dogs of every age — from tiny puppies to gentle seniors — and I make sure each pet gets the care and attention they need. Your pet will enjoy plenty of room to run, play, and explore, but they will always be under my watchful eye. Safety and comfort come first here. The farm is a calm, natural environment where animals feel relaxed, loved, and at home. I can’t wait to meet your furry family member and make sure they have a happy, safe, and fun stay! 🐾 I’m a part-time student and I live at home, which means I have a very flexible schedule. My classes are spaced out, so I’m home throughout the day. Because of that, I’m able to give pets consistent attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. Taking care of animals is already part of my everyday life on the farm, so your pet naturally fits into my routine. They’ll never be left alone for long periods — I’m either outside with the animals, studying at home, or right nearby where I can keep a close, watchful eye on them. I care for pets in a calm farm environment with plenty of safe outdoor space to explore and play. Pets stay inside our home with me and are treated like part of the family — no kennels unless requested. I keep a close, watchful eye on them at all times, whether we’re inside relaxing or outside getting exercise. We follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible: meal times, walks, play style, treats, and any special needs. I’m used to caring for both high-energy pets and slower senior animals, and I adjust activities to what makes your pet feel happy and secure.
About: I have been a dog enthusiast. I have experience with large breeds. Turtles. Rabbits. I love to walk dogs and work one on one with them. Available to help anytime especially in the VALLEY AREA ;) Have experience with large breed dogs. Especially love mastiffs. Bulldogs. And french bulldogs. Pitbulls and fast moving dogs I have 2 french bulldogs currently with a fenced yard. And access to seperate dogs. I love animals and can relate to them to ease their anxiety.
About: When I was 10 I joined a dog training program through my school, that’s where my training experience began. I provide a premium, low-volume dog care experience for owners who want their dog to have more one-on-one attention in a calm home environment. Your dog won’t be just one of many in a crowded space. I keep my care more personal so each dog gets plenty of attention, supervision, and outdoor time. I have a big yard for dogs to enjoy, but my indoor space is smaller, so I am very intentional about keeping the number of dogs low. That means I can focus on your dog’s comfort, safety, and overall experience much more closely. This is a great fit for dogs who do better with a quieter setting and for owners who value quality of care over high-volume boarding or daycare. I generally only take one to a few dogs at a time unless they are from the same household. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs. I took care of my childhood dog for 17 years of her long, beautiful life. I have experience working with small senior dogs specifically and I know all the little things that they appreciate. I also have experience with large dogs and can handle very big strong dogs. I also love hiking with dogs so if you have an energetic dog you need to burn off energy I am your guy. I have an acre yard with a fenced in front yard in a nice area. Any dog that boards with me would be treated like my own dog and let out very frequently to go to the bathroom and play outside. I would always remain home with your dog. Thank you for considering me and I hope to meet your pet soon! I’m currently a fully remote student so I am fully available. If I board a pet I will be with them full time to make sure they receive the care they deserve. I have a fenced in front yard, and a good amount of unfenced land in the back. My dog is very friendly and would keep your pet great company. He loves dogs and cats. I can easily crate your dog if needed, but would love to give your dog the pet experience and treat them like my own. I live in a nice are and have great access to the woods nearby as well.
“Melody provided quality care to my Labrador while i was away. She followed directions, provided great updates, and demonstrated exceptional flexibility and was willing to adapt to my schedule. I highly recommend and am excited to rebook with her!”

“Saori was such a great sitter for our pups (1 year old great pyrenees). She took them to the dog park in the morning for a couple of hours, helped continue our invisibile fence training, and sent us so many pics and updates throughout the weekend. I could tell how happy and comfortable our dogs were in her home and under her care. They came home so tired because they had so much fun with her and the other dogs!”
“I can't say enough great things about our experiences with Jennifer. I've left my dog Peachy with her 3 times now, this last time being over a week. I got so many picture and video updates throughout and I could see how comfortable and happy my Peachy was. Jennifer and her daughter are so wonderful with her and I am very grateful to have found them. The peace of mind I have now while I'm away that my dog is well cared for is worth so much. Also, Jennifer was highly communicative and very flexible when my schedule needed to change last minute. I won't leave Peachy with anyone else now!!”
“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!”
“Robin is always so wonderful with our dog, Adelaide. She does regular drop in visits with her so when we need boarding services, Robin is always our first choice! She shows our dog so much care, attention and love.”
“Alan & Luis take such good care of Cody while we are away. We get up dated pics and videos every day and feed back on how he is doing. It makes us feel secure that Cody is in good hands while we are away. Plenty of activity and interacting with the other dogs . Clean environment and worry free. From my fur baby to you both... thank you for taking such good care of me. Miss you!!”
“Yajaira was excellent. It was my first time boarding my dog. She answered all my questions and I was able to go on my trip knowing my dog was in great hands. She sent daily pictures and updates. My dog was well cared for. I will definitely leave my dog with her again.”
“Nell was friendly, flexible about drop off/pick up, and so kind to our pup for her first stay away from us. Nell made our girl feel right at home and kept her happy in our absence.”
“Kathryn and Jeremy were great, can't recommend them enough. They were extremely communicative both before Bella's stay and during, updating us with pictures etc throughout the day. The couple are very well versed in dog behavior/needs and asked all the right questions to make us feel confident Bella was going to be well cared for and safe. When we picked Bella up she was very comfortable in their home and was resting with Kathryn and Jeremy. If you are looking for trustworthy couple to watch your pup with love and attention, this is it!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for people my whole life. From shitzu’s, to lab mixes. I also have two rescues of my own who I’ve worked very hard with to make comfortable and feel loved after there trauma. I am currently a full time teacher so I’m available mostly weekends. Come summer time, other than a part time job I’ll be available often. I have two high energy dogs who love to play. We do not have a fenced in yard, but it is large with woods all around. We also have a lead set up for dogs who are a flight risk.
“Katie took excellent care of Sadie while we were away on vacation - after meeting her during the meet and greet I felt super comfortable leaving Sadie at her house. Will absolutely use her again for any future vacations, she is quick to respond and very accommodating!”
“Lynsey was incredibly accommodating and made sure that Zora was coming into a friendly environment. Her pup Stan got along great with mine, and she had an ample, secure space that the pups could run around in.”
“Erika took care of our Baby “Rydah” She sent regular updates along with photos, meal times, and Rydah’s walking schedule. We WILL be using Erika again. Strongly recommend her to any other family. Thanks Erika Rydah will see you soon!”
“I’ve used Karine twice now with my golden retriever Thor, and am finally comfortable leaving him with someone else. It’s clear she cares about Thor and takes excellent care of him. He has a blast with her, which is evident in all the pictures she shares and his mood upon pickup. This is truly a home away from home for Thor, and he’ll be back for sure.”
“Bruce was fantastic with our doodle. Our 11 year old was anxious leaving her dog with someone we didn’t know, but said after our initial meet and greet she said that she trusted Bruce. We received multiple updates and pictures a day which made us happy she was having as good of a vacation as we were. Would definitely recommend to others!”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Elizabeth! The pups were happy to see us, but obviously very well cared for! We received daily updates and photos which gave us such peace of mind. I would definitely recommend Elizabeth to everyone, and will be using her again!”
About: I grew up with dogs. I had a Great Dane that lived to be 12. I currently have a mini bernedoodle that is almost 5 years old. I also have a bunny. I currently work full-time and am available on Saturday and Sunday for boarding and dog walking. From late June through August, my schedule is more flexible. I will be available daily. I live in a quiet neighborhood in a cul-de-sac with a fenced-in yard. I have a very friendly mini Bernedoodle. I love dogs that play and lazy dogs that just like to chill.
“Fiona was fantastic! Meet and greet first and got comfortable with the setup. She sent pics and updates as requested and I will be booking with her again soon. I could tell my dog Cal was very comfortable there both during and after.”
