“Rita is a fantastic person to trust with your dog. She clearly cares and loves all of the dogs she watches. She kept me updated throughout the entire stay with pictures and videos. I would recommend Rita to anyone looking for dog sitting needs!”
“The fact that Courtney is a vet was one of the reasons I reached out to see if she was able to watch Sunny for a weekend while I was out of town due to how anxious she can get. Let me tell you, she did not disappoint. During the meet and greet, she asked about emergency vet info and offered her office as an option for urgent but non-emergency situations since I don’t have a primary emergency vet. She was aware of Sunny’s needs while she was there. Courtney also kept great communication and sent lots of videos and pics during her stay. I would 10/10 recommend her and will definitely be booking services with her again when the time comes!”
“Chyann, was an amazing sitter for my baby. Beanie stayed with her for a week and throughout the entire stay she kept me updated with pictures and insight into how he was doing. She’s one of the more informed sitters on this platform and following our meet-and-greet I was completely sold on choosing her as a sitter. With the updates, smooth transition for drop-off, and Chyann’s warm personality I was completely at ease and confident throughout the boarding process. I’d definitely recommend choosing Chyann!”
“Amber was absolutely wonderful with Nala! She took such great care of her, and Nala had the best time playing and getting lots of love. You can tell Amber really knows how to make dogs feel at home. We would definitely book with her again without hesitation. Highly recommend!”
“I searched for several months and many places looking for the right home-away-from-home for our dog, who has separation anxiety issues and is used to being with his people 24/7. Kelly put me at ease and I immediately felt that my dog was in a good place and would be well cared for. So thankful to have found Kelly!”
“Candace is wonderful! It was obvious she has an affection for dogs as soon as we, and our Boston, met her. She has lots of room for running and playing. She sent pictures several times showing how comfortable Pru was at her home. She took great care of her "houseguest". I have no reservations about recommending her, and we will definitely use her again when we are in the area.”
“I am an overprotective fur mom who is very particular with who puppy sits Dallas. I only trust two of my friends to watch him when I am away. I was going away for a week, and did not have either friend to puppy sit for me at the time. I searched Rover and Olivia was the first name that popped up. I did not want to choose the first person I saw so I kept searching; however something brought me back to Olivia and I’m so happy I did! Olivia‘s knowledge of dogs and care for Dallas was amazing! Dallas did not want to leave Olivia’s home which made me so happy. It made me feel at ease to know Dallas enjoyed his stay and was comfortable with her. I will most definitely use Olivia’s services again!”
“Laura was a fantastic dog sitter! She was flexible with scheduling pick up/drop off, sent an update with a photo, and our pup seemed to have a great time with her. We will definitely use her services again!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Andres He is flexible and accommodating, which made coordinating drop-off and pick-up so easy. Most importantly, our dog Murphy felt completely at home—relaxed, happy, and well cared for. We appreciated the updates and personal touches. It made it so much easier for us to leave him, knowing he was in such good hands.”
“Latoya was really amazing in taking care of Madison. It was our first time with Latoya and I know we made the right decision the whole time was totally stress free. She took an excellent care of our pup and she sends us pictures and videos everyday. Madison was at home and comfortable with her care the whole time. We are definitely going back for her services the next time.”
“Claudia was absolutely fantastic! She sent frequent updates with pictures and was super caring. I could tell that she has a true passion for animals when I first met her. Everything worked out so easily that I had no cares leaving my dog behind. I will be using her again for sure. Thanks Claudia!!!!”
“Lindsey took care of Sydney for a night. When I was there to drop off, the kids and the family welcomed Sydney and made her comfortable. Lindsey provided frequent updates which I greatly appreciate. Sydney had a great stay at Lindsey's.”
“Alberta watched our 17.5 year old cockapoo for 2 weeks and took such great care of her. Our dog has some minor health issues and also requires diapers and Alberta had no problem taking care of that. She had great enthusiasm for watching senior dogs when we first met her and we felt like we were leaving our girl in excellent hands. We received updates throughout our trip and she was always timely when responding to our messages. We would definitely reach out to her first if we ever needed someone to watch our dog again. She was excellent and you should consider her when looking for a sitter.”
“Pooja was absolutely wonderful with Bentley! From the very beginning, I was impressed by how thorough she was during our meet and greet. She asked all the right questions about Bentley's routine, personality, feeding schedule, preferences, and any special needs, which immediately gave me confidence that she truly cares about the dogs she watches. Throughout his stay, she kept me updated, communicated well, and sent photos that helped me feel completely at ease while I was away. Bentley can be energetic and very attached to his people, but Pooja was patient, attentive, and loving with him. It was clear that she took the time to make him feel comfortable and treated him like one of her own. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for pup is the best feeling, and I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Pooja to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, knowledgeable, communicative, and genuinely wonderful with dogs!”
“I had a great experience with Shanisa as our pet sitter on Rover! She took care of my three dogs for seven days in her home, and I couldn’t have been more pleased. From the moment I dropped them off, it was clear Shanisa was a true animal lover. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured while I was away.”
“Our pup loved her week long stay with Adriene. She had so much fun and actually didn’t want to leave Adriene’s house when we came back from vacation lol. The communication was great, we got plenty of updates and pictures of our pup during her stay. Highly recommend”

“Kara is absolutely wonderful! She’s taken perfect care of our babies and goes above and beyond. She’s attentive, thorough and extremely communicative. We cannot recommend her enough! If we could give more than 5 stars, we would.”
“I booked Shawn a little last minute right before my vacation, she is amazing! This is my first time using the app and having a sitter for my babies! She went above what I expected and truly was so much help, such an attentive sitter. I definitely recommend booking her to take care of your fur babies! Truly the sweetest women!”
“Christa was phenomenal! The care she gave my Napoleon and Edie was perfect and they loved her! Although I missed them terribly they didn’t miss me…they were happy to snuggle & play with Christa! I will definitely ask Christa to cat sit for me whenever I am out of town! Thanks Christa, we love you!!!😻😻”
“Toni was amazing. This is the first time I've gone away and not worried at all about my 3 cats. She sent tons of pictures and videos after I told her I loved seeing them, and she gave me a great summary everyday about how they were doing. I would recommend her to anyone!!”
About: I have had dogs in my home my entire life who have ranged from sedentary to pulling you down the street! I take time to understand each pets unique needs and make sure that our time together is well spent from the owner's perspective and the pet's! I work full time from 7-4pm Monday to Friday. My availability is anytime after 4pm but before 9pm on weekdays and anytime after 8am but before 10pm on weekends. I live with my fiance who is a veterinary nurse, our 10 year old dog, and 8 year old cat in an apartment. We have easy access to a large park with walking trails and can easily find fun routes around New areas!
“Rebecca was amazing! We really appreciate all her attention to our kitties. She sent pictures and communicated periodically with status of both of our cats. She did a great job! We strongly recommend her services!”
“Stephanie was my first pet sitter with Rover, and I was really apprehensive about leaving my cat for 2 weeks. Stephanie not only went above and beyond to reassure me, but she was flexible with the booking and checking on my house while I was away. She provided detailed updates with plenty of pictures, followed all instructions, and exceeded expectations. My normally skittish cat took to Stephanie immediately, which I know had to do with Stephanie, because she didn’t come out for anyone else that stopped by the house. I had a wonderful experience, and would definitely request Stephanie for any future pet sitting needs.”
“She is amazing! super responsible and quick to respond. She treated my cats with so much care and kindness, and the regular photo updates after visiting gave me real peace of mind.”
“Jo was amazing with Little Bear! Communication was steady and on point! Little Bear opened up to him immediately and I see from all of the amazing videos and photos that Jo sent me on a daily basis with him and Little Bear that they hit it off really well! Down from play, to pampering, to feeding , to cleaning up after and entertaining Little Bear Jo did an amazing job and I will definitely be utilizing his services again real soon! You can tell that Jo really enjoys what he does and he is trustworthy which is a PLUS! Little Bear really enjoyed Jo, which is MOST important in my book! Jo thank you so much once again for your service for Little Bear! We found a 5-Star Sitter! You won't be disappointed with Jo!”
“She was so kind and thoughtful with our sweet babies She gave off such a good energy, and I had no hesitations about leaving them with her. The care and love she has for dogs absolutely comes through. Would definitely book her again!”
“Shanisa has both boarded my dogs and did a drop in when I was late for a dinner. She is reliable and makes sure to center the comfort of my pups. She understands that my dogs are my world and treats them well.”
“Linda watched my cats sometime last year, and I just realized I never left a review!! Linda was AMAZING. She did everything I asked and then some. Sent me adorable selfies with my cat so you know she's a real animal lover. Sent me updates of her playing with my cat and was super understanding of her being a little bitey. HIGHLY recommend.”
About: I’ve taken care of my own kitty for the past 4yrs, as well as been a resource for family members & friend’s cats in that time. The type of services I can provide are grooming (brushing, nail clipping -as long as they’re friendly!!-) eye/ear drop administration and of course, litter box cleanup. I also love playing w the lil ones until they get tired so if they have any toys they particularly enjoy, I’m happy to toss those around! My availability is typically Sun-Thurs, anytime throughout the day as long as I have prior notice, and can stay long enough to take plenty of pictures & make sure your kitty feels loved on ~
About: I’ve had animal training internships including one at UPenn. I worked with law enforcement and detection K9s ranging from puppies to professional dogs in their chosen field. I’ve volunteered at an animal rescue since I was 7 years old. I worked with animals from all different backgrounds and disciplines ranging all the way from dogs to horses. I am currently working part-time so I can work around scheduling to be able to provide the best care possible for your animals at the most convenient times. I have education in animal husbandry, nutrition, and management. I follow instructions very carefully so however the owner prefers their animal to be cared for is how it will be treated.

I am working a full time job- but have plenty of time in the afternoons! Pet care is a big part of my daily life. I’m used to following feeding, walking, and medication schedules from my experience as a kennel assistant, so caring for animals fits naturally into my routine. I make time each day to check in on pets, go for walks, and give them the attention they deserve. Whether it’s early-morning feedings, midday walks, or evening playtime, I always make sure animals stay on their normal schedule. Caring for pets doesn’t feel like extra work to me — it’s something I truly enjoy and look forward to every day When I care for pets, I focus on keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable. I always follow their normal routines — from walks and feedings to playtime and cuddles — so they feel right at home. In a client’s home, I treat your space and pets with the same care I give my own.

“Courtney was great with our dog! We needed to find a sitter last minute and she was happy to help out. She was quick to respond to everything, provided updates throughout the day, and kept our dog in great care. Would highly recommend!”
About: I’m a devout animal lover with two dogs of my own and one cat. Caring for animals is truly one of my favorite joys in life! My ultimate goal is to give your dog a home away from home when they’re in my care. My senior dog recently passed from a rare lung cancer so I’m experienced in delivering oral medication, round the clock care and attention, and moving at their pace. Your baby will be well taken care of. I work remote so I am able to give your dog lots of love and attention throughout the day. Your dog will be able to take potty breaks every two hours in the fenced-in yard and spend time outside. We typically go for walks in the early morning and late evening. My Rover calendar is updated daily so that I can support any urgent needs, when available. Boarding & Daycare: My ultimate goal is to give your dog a home away from home! I only board one dog at a time so that I can give them adequate, individualized attention all throughout the day. You will not find a sitter in Wilmington that is as attentive as I am. My pets are kept separate during boarding. Your dog will have access to the entire first floor and the fenced in-backyard. I have a dedicated bedroom for boarding where I can sleep with dogs who may have separation anxiety to ensure they are comfortable. Drop-in visits & Walks: I‘ll take my time getting to know your dog and make sure they’re comfortable with me being there. I like to sit with them for a few minutes before and after each walk to feel out their energy levels. On walks, I recognize that this is their social time so I go at their pace and let them get plenty of sniff time. I am very respectful of your home and will follow your instructions closely.
“Super thankful for Olivia! We’re so happy we found her! It’s been a challenging journey to find the doggy day care for our 11 week pup. When we finally found Olivia, she allowed us to have an informal interview with her which we were super thankful for because for some reason some sitters on here finds that offensive (?). She welcomed us into her gorgeous home and”

About: I grew up with two funny little dogs, Kiwi (a Peekapoo) and Tegan (a Bichon Frisé), whom my mom and I trained from puppies. I’m now the proud cat mom to an orange tabby named Ari! I’m calm, patient, loving, and consistent with animals. I also have experience caring for a senior dog who required daily medication by injection, and I’m happy to provide that same gentle, attentive care for your pets if needed. Whether your pet loves to play, explore, or simply curl up for cuddles, I’m happy to follow their lead and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. :) I have a flexible schedule, so your pet will receive plenty of attention and companionship! I have a flexible schedule and am often available for same-day bookings! Starting in August every Thursday, I will nanny for a wonderful five-month-old baby while also caring for her family’s two dogs and two cats. Outside of Thursdays, my schedule is very open. Because of my flexibility, your pets can receive the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. I keep my availability up to date, communicate promptly, and strive to make every booking reliable, stress-free, and personalized to your pet’s needs. Every pet is unique, so I always begin by following the owner’s instructions and learning their routine.

I also pay close attention to their behavior to make sure they seem happy, comfortable, and healthy. If medications are needed, I’m happy to administer them as directed. Before I leave, I’ll make sure your pet is settled and I’ll send you an update with photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Lashae was the best Rover experience we have had. She was amazing with our dogs and our neighbors (who had tons of positive comments). The best part of working with Lashae was the improvement in our dogs’ health! They have more energy and walk farther!! Lashae is the best! Can’t wait to work with her again!”
About: I have experience with every size, breed, and age of dog; I have done everything from watching and housesitting a twelve year old lab from hosting a 2 year old chihuahua. I also have extensive experience looking after feline friends as well, often looking after two or three at a time. Whether your furry friend is missing you and wanting to be clingy and cuddled or is feeling like they want solo alone time, I will accommodate your pets moods and personalities to the best of my ability. Outside of dogs and cats, I have been a small animal lover my whole life and have loved and owned everything from ferrets to rats! I am an MA student at University of Delaware, so while I have a heavy workload, that usually just results in more time at home since homework takes a lot more time than going to class itself. Generally I am only gone for no more than 4-5 hours at a time, but generally less. I can often board any time throughout the week with enough notice. In your home, I would attempt to respect your space to the best of my ability and only go places/do tasks that you explicitly ask me to do. I want you to feel rest-assured that both your pet and your space are in good hands!
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life in my personal and professional life. I worked for a small business in VA for about 5 years throughout high school and college and have started back up since I started my own Graphic Design business! I've cared for dogs (reptiles and other exotic pets as well) of many different breeds and personalities throughout the years and have always loved every minute! I run my own graphic design business and have a second job in the afternoon (2pm-7pm) but all other hours can be filled with playtime for your pet! I can drop by in the morning, midday, and night as early as 8am and as late as 10pm (unless specified as an overnight). If you are looking for an overnight service, please be aware that I will be away for your home for 3-4 hours at a time to fulfill other routine walks and my work. Visits will always have play time and enough walk time for sufficient exercise. I always make sure to give a lot of attention and make them comfortable even though you're away and will stick as close to your normal routine as I can! In the summer, I'm careful about temperatures especially if they walk in the street and take special care of cold climate breeds.
About: I’ve had dogs in my household since I was 5, meaning I’m skilled in taking care of dogs and am ready for anything they might need. I’ve dogs at for multiple neighbors of the years, and many of those dogs have been old dogs with specific instructions to keep them healthy. I’ve done multiple weeks of overnight care for dogs as well as simple daycare or dog walks for people that need help. I’m currently studying to become a vet and I would love to have the chance to get to know your furry companion! I am open to help out any day of the week as needed. I have a part-time job with schedule hours that change each week, but none of those hours include nighttime’s. I am willing to take your pet even last minute if I am capable. In my home, I make sure to let the dog out first thing in the morning and right before bed to allow them to use the bathroom as needed. In my household I take my dog for a walk around 9 every morning and 5 every night, then feeding him at 6pm. Other food given to him includes a treat in the morning and a couple in the afternoon that I put in his bowl. In between those times, I will spend time with my dog either sitting on the couch together watching tv or playing games.
“Nathan & Meredith are amazing! From arranging meet & greet, communications through app, and the thoughtful notes after every walk, they are really caring to your pets. My dog enjoys spending time with them so much!”
About: I have had my Siberian Husky American Foxhound since 2019! She is my entire world and is like my child. I love getting to take care of her when I am not teaching little ones at school! I love dogs and everyone in my life has dogs. This includes another American Foxhound mix, a Pitbull mix, and a Labordoodle which I spend extended time with each. I would love to get a chance to walk your fur baby and take great care of them! I am currently done the school year and have my days open for summer break! I am hoping to fill that time with walking some adorable dogs! I live in an apartment so I take my dog on at least 2 walks a day. We often take her in the car to different places such as the beach. I am understanding that everyone has a different routine for their dog and that it is important for the dog and family to stay on that routine! The more information I am given about your dog the better care I am able to give them.
About: I have been pet sitting since I was a child, but I also have a few years of professional pet sitting experience as well with both cats and dogs. Big or small, young or old, I have cared for them all. I work from home so as long as I have a wi-fi connection, I can care for your pet and your home for as long as you need. Overnight stays are available I will always keep your pet in my sights and be aware of their needs throughout the day. I will keep you posted with constant updates throughout the day as frequently as you wish.
About: 🛑 PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING🛑: I own 2 cats. Even though my Cats have their own room your dogs must be ok with or have been around cats and knows basic commands. If your dog is medium or large size you MUST bring a cage. I will only use the cage for when I'm at work and I need to let the cats out their room. But when i'm home the dogs have free range even on my bed 😂 Before 2021: I've been pet sitting/walking for friends/neighbors for 5 years & on certain occasions I've been a dog/cat boarder for them, but I've been a dog walker for 5.5 years. 2 of the recurring dogs that I pet sit has had health issues, so I'm able to follow strict instructions given by the owners to take care of their pets in the best way possible whether it's just for a walk or pet sitting. UPDATE JULY 2025: Sorry to any specific owners but unless you are one of the 4 clients I've had since age 20, I will NOT be pet sitting/dropping in on CERTAIN snakes and ALL spiders. My soul will leave my body. The only reason why that is, is because I have a good rapport with the 4 clients and known some of their snakes since they were either in an egg or as a baby so I know their temperament . I'm okay with other reptiles, certain snakes, & pet birds. Some examples are Bearded dragons, geckos, chameleons, Iguanas, African Egg-Eating Snake, Western Hognose, Children’s python, Kenyan sand and Rosy boa. DM for list since there's a caption limit. UPDATE JULY 2025: Depending on my boss I work from Mon-Wed 11pm-7/7:30am, Fri-Sun 6pm-2am, off days maybe Tuesday (after 7:30am), Thursday & sometimes Friday. I will communicate if I happen to work a double or if I'm late since I have to rely on other coworkers to relieve me from my shift. Due to work I will not be petting sitting pets that can't stay alone for more 4-6hrs anymore. But if you need drop-ins for your pets medicine time especially for some of my older clients on all the apps I've been on I remember I will gladly do that when I have time. This is mostly for the cats and small dogs I might be open for boarding. I do own two cats they are up to date with their shots. I know how they react to other cats since I had them for a year, but as for dogs I'm not too sure until I get my own dog. Also, for the most part my yard is fenced is just one side of the fence has not been fully fixed yet so when we are outside in the yard they will be on harnesses for the cats and dogs since I will be outside with them. I also have a an in ground pool that's covered. Also, there's a mix of stray and outdoor cats in my neighborhood and for some, they like to hang out in my front and backyard (they do get in from the broken side of the fence). Mainly for shelter underneath my porch since it's elevated and hides them from this ungodly heat. Plus it doesn't help that me, my dad and my neighbors, do occasionally feed them if we notice that they get too skinny and one of other neighbors bought one of those insulated and heated shelters for the cats to stay in during the winter last year. Fun fact that's how I ended up with my 2nd cat as pet.
“Jordana is one of the best! She went out of her way to make us feel comfortable as we left our Stella for the weekend. She sent photos and videos. Kept in contact with me throughout her walks. 100% recommend and I can’t wait to book her again in the future.”
About: I’ve had animal training internships including one at UPenn. I worked with law enforcement and detection K9s ranging from puppies to professional dogs in their chosen field. I’ve volunteered at an animal rescue since I was 7 years old. I worked with animals from all different backgrounds and disciplines ranging all the way from dogs to horses. I am currently working part-time so I can work around scheduling to be able to provide the best care possible for your animals at the most convenient times. I have education in animal husbandry, nutrition, and management. I follow instructions very carefully so however the owner prefers their animal to be cared for is how it will be treated.
About: I have never not had a dog in my home ! I have experience taking care of my own dog, as well as taking care of puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs, and everything in between. I have years of dogsitting experience, and they are just my absolute favorite thing in the world. I have recently graduated from college and am looking to petsit while adjusting back to being in Delaware! I have very open availability at this time. Because I live in a small living space with two of my own pets, I would prefer to care for your pets in your home! If this is not possible, that’s totally ok, I just want to make sure your pets have as much space to relax and play as possible.

“The fact that Courtney is a vet was one of the reasons I reached out to see if she was able to watch Sunny for a weekend while I was out of town due to how anxious she can get. Let me tell you, she did not disappoint. During the meet and greet, she asked about emergency vet info and offered her office as an option for urgent but non-emergency situations since I don’t have a primary emergency vet. She was aware of Sunny’s needs while she was there. Courtney also kept great communication and sent lots of videos and pics during her stay. I would 10/10 recommend her and will definitely be booking services with her again when the time comes!”
“Chyann, was an amazing sitter for my baby. Beanie stayed with her for a week and throughout the entire stay she kept me updated with pictures and insight into how he was doing. She’s one of the more informed sitters on this platform and following our meet-and-greet I was completely sold on choosing her as a sitter. With the updates, smooth transition for drop-off, and Chyann’s warm personality I was completely at ease and confident throughout the boarding process. I’d definitely recommend choosing Chyann!”
“I searched for several months and many places looking for the right home-away-from-home for our dog, who has separation anxiety issues and is used to being with his people 24/7. Kelly put me at ease and I immediately felt that my dog was in a good place and would be well cared for. So thankful to have found Kelly!”
“I am an overprotective fur mom who is very particular with who puppy sits Dallas. I only trust two of my friends to watch him when I am away. I was going away for a week, and did not have either friend to puppy sit for me at the time. I searched Rover and Olivia was the first name that popped up. I did not want to choose the first person I saw so I kept searching; however something brought me back to Olivia and I’m so happy I did! Olivia‘s knowledge of dogs and care for Dallas was amazing! Dallas did not want to leave Olivia’s home which made me so happy. It made me feel at ease to know Dallas enjoyed his stay and was comfortable with her. I will most definitely use Olivia’s services again!”
“Laura was a fantastic dog sitter! She was flexible with scheduling pick up/drop off, sent an update with a photo, and our pup seemed to have a great time with her. We will definitely use her services again!”
“We had a fantastic experience with Andres He is flexible and accommodating, which made coordinating drop-off and pick-up so easy. Most importantly, our dog Murphy felt completely at home—relaxed, happy, and well cared for. We appreciated the updates and personal touches. It made it so much easier for us to leave him, knowing he was in such good hands.”
“I had a great experience with Shanisa as our pet sitter on Rover! She took care of my three dogs for seven days in her home, and I couldn’t have been more pleased. From the moment I dropped them off, it was clear Shanisa was a true animal lover. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured while I was away.”
“This was Rho's very first boarding stay away from home, and Marissa made the entire experience so easy and reassuring. She sent lots of adorable photo updates throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. Marissa is incredibly caring, thoughtful, and trustworthy. She paid close attention to all of the care instructions and special details I shared about Rho, and it was clear she genuinely wanted Rho to feel comfortable and at home. She even gave Rho a bath after she had an accident in her crate, which I really appreciated, and surprised us with homemade treats and cute gifts! Rho came home happy and settled back in right away, which tells me she had a wonderful time. I truly appreciate all the love and care Marissa gave her, and I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Marissa to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and dependable sitter!”
“Charlie’s stay with Samantha and her family was wonderful. They took him in so we could visit my family for Christmas and let him be a part of their Christmas. He was warm and well cared for. They sent us many pictures and shared the fun they had. We will definitely seek her out in the future. Thanks for taking such good care of our boy.”
“Elizabeth was great! She sent plenty of updates during our dog’s stay, which was greatly appreciated and followed all instructions when it came to him. She was also super sweet and her family was just as sweet, we felt very comfortable leaving Meechie with her.”
“This is my first time using Rover and Cecilia has made my experience so enjoyable. I did book last minute, but Cecilia communicated quickly and it was easy to check in. Whenever I had questions, she was there to answer them and provided daily updates. Her home was warm and welcoming for my pet, with plenty of space for my dog to run around and interact with Cecilia's family. Cecilia puts her heart into what she does! I highly recommend you choose Cecilia when you are looking around!”

“Totiyana is so patient and caring! Our Blu is a big ball of energy, especially around other dogs but she could handle him. Will definitely be using her services again! Thank you!”
“Patti was amazing with my doggo for 3 days/ 2 nights. My dog definitely enjoyed herself and loved being there. Patti sent updates and pictures daily and keep us informed on anything we needed to know. Patti takes the trust you place in her to take care of your dog very seriously, and she has fun with your dogs. Highly recommend Patti for booking and I look forward to having my dog stay with Patti in the future!”
