“Your dog is missing out on a great experience if you do not board him/ her at Larry’s place! Larry is a dog lover and has the perfect large fenced in shady area for your lovable pet. He knows all the ins and outs of feeding and playing and takes such a personal effort in taking care of your loved pet! My Jack Russell Terrier named Mobie had a blast! Updates with pictures showed how happy Mobie was… I was afraid he wanted to move in! I will definitely be back. Thank you for taking such good care of Mobie, Larry!!!!”
“Cooper couldn't get out of the car fast enough to run to Uriaha. He loves playing with a ball and thoroughly enjoyed running around and having fun in their lovely fenced-in yard. It made me happy to see that Cooper feels right at home there.”
“Tracy is the best! She took such good care of my dog, Will, he thinks he was at doggie camp! He had the run of the yard, got along well with other dogs, played his favorite games, took long walks. Excellent communication. Tracy sent frequent updates and photos, let me know how he was doing everyday. I had an extended unexpected travel delay, and Tracy was just great! I highly recommend her, and I definitely hope she’ll be able to take care of my Will the next time I travel.”
“Marisol is great with Max! She sends just the right amount of updates, is prompt and friendly. We will be happy to send Max to Marisol’s house again next time we go off island.”
“Erin did an amazing job! Lots of pictures and great communication. She even went to my specialty pet food store to refill Blake's food because I underestimated what he'd need and he ran out, oops! 😅 I could tell from the pictures that Blake was comfortable and happy. Erin's son was the perfect play companion and I will definitely be using their services again!”
“Renee is a lifesaver! We brought our dog to the beach for her first time and learned she didn’t want to be left alone in our condo. We had a tour and activities planned so we quickly started searching and messaged Renee on Rover and she responded within minutes. She agreed to dog sit Poppy at her home on very short notice allowing us to keep our plans for the weekend. She kept us updated frequently by sending pics and videos and taking such great care of our dog. I highly recommend Renee for any pet sitting needs and being so accommodating and thoughtful, we really appreciate her!”
“Sara was absolutely amazing with my Shih Tzu, Chloe. From the moment we met her, her personality was so warm and kind, and it immediately made me feel comfortable leaving Chloe in her care. She kept me updated and treated Chloe like she was her own. It meant so much to hear that everyone fell in love with Chloe while she was there—it reassured me that she was getting lots of love and attention. I’m so grateful for the care Sara gave her and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”
About: I have been a dog mom my whole life! I grew up on an animal rescue farm while also volunteering at an animal shelter. I then worked at a dog boarding facility (Pet Paradise) in college so I have endless experience caring for all kinds of pets and farm animals. I am a mom to a 17 year old American Bulldog, 11 year old Corgi, 3 year old tripawd pup and a 21 year old tarantula. I work from home full-time M-F 9-5 with minimal an flexible meetings (also my husband is home by 2pm each day). This means I have plenty of time to care for your fur babies and keep them happy while you enjoy your time away! I have more than a 1/4 acre of privacy fenced yard with trees and squirrels to chase. I also have 3 sweet dogs to make you pup(s) comfortable when they are staying with me.
“Excellent experience! Eboni is definitely a dog whisperer and my dog was very well cared for during her stay. Thank you Eboni for all you do to make it easy for dog owners to entrust their furbaby to you”
“Kelly took great care of our 3 1/2 year old whippet while we were on a 3+ week international trip. He was recovering from an injury that had required stitches and Kelly was wonderful in making sure he had the appropriate activity level and administering his medication until he was completely well. Kelly was always accessible & responsive to texts, etc., & she provided us with much appreciated photos & videos of our boy while we were gone. Her property has plenty of room for exercise & play which is wonderful for all dogs, including a very active whippet. Knowing that our dog was being well taken care of in a home environment allowed us to have a vacation where we didn't have to worry that he was safe and loved. It was a wonderful gift from Kelly!”
“Nothing but good things to say about this visit for our Dog. Josie sent updates every day and we could tell our dog had so much fun at their home! She even delivered our dog back to us at end of stay! Amazing experience and we’ll do again!”
About: I have been caring for a variety of animals for over 30 years. I have owned several breeds of dog, to include Doodles, Labs, and Dobermans. I owned/operated a small hobby farm where I had chickens, rabbits, and bees. I currently have a German Sheppard and a cat. I love animals of all sorts and would love to help you care for yours! I have a very flexible schedule and am able to be with your pet for most of the day. I tailor my schedule to your needs as a pet owner. I have a large yard for your pets to explore and we go on nightly walks to burn off that energy. I have a dedicated dog room and crates for those that are crate trained.
“We couldn't have found a better place for our pup to be! Austyn sent daily pictures and updates and our dog loved having such a big fenced in yard to play in! Great experience, will definitely be rebooking with Austyn !”
“I had such a great experience! My dogs clearly had an amazing time and looked like they were having the time of their lives. Brooke was very attentive and kept me updated throughout their stay, sending pictures every day and letting me know how they were eating and doing. I really appreciated the communication and knowing that they were being well cared for. When they came home, they were completely worn out, which tells me they had a wonderful time! I’m very happy with the care they received and will definitely be using Brooke again. Highly recommend!”
“They were so sweet and took great care of our little guy! Sent pictures and updates of walks -will definitely be our go to sitters if they are available! Thank you so much :)”
About: Hey pet parents! My name is Skyla. I am genuinely one of the biggest dog lovers you will EVER meet. I have had a strong passion and so much love for dogs since I was little. When your dog boards with me, you have the option to allow them to play with my dogs (I have had my dogs since they were puppies-they are very well behaved and friendly) or stay separate. Nothing wrong with solo play! Regardless of your decision-they will get SO much affection. I do require food to be supplied by owner so we can avoid any belly aches-but with owner permission, I will give them lots of dog treats. They will get lots of playtime in the yard & walks if you choose. This will be their home away from home! I can assure you-they will be safe, fed, and happy. All of the dogs I board get their own bedroom dedicated to them because I feel like dogs need a safe space when they’re in a new environment. Our yard is completely fenced in & the neighborhood is very safe. My personal dogs have their own bedroom. I have had dogs here before that the owner did not want them playing with my dogs so keeping dogs separate is not an issue if you wish. Feel free to ask any questions:) All dogs get daily exercise + play time & mental stimulation…this includes walks around the neighborhood. My job is very flexible so I am home most of the time. I do have crates available for your dog to stay in if you wish. My home is furnished with plenty of dog toys and treats, so your pup will always be occupied! Fresh water is always available. My pets are allowed on the furniture, so your dog will feel at home.

“Nicole was polite, friendly, and professional. She inquired about the services we were looking for since it was our first time using Rover. We told here what we needed and she confirmed that she would be able to those tasks and even ones we had not considered. She had an immediate rapport with our pets and it showed when she provided reports about her visits. We give Nicole our highest recommendation.”
“Erin was great with my high energy dog, Bodie. He enjoys her mid-day visits and the positive attention. She was flexible with a last minute booking when my other sitter had an emergency pop up and is awesome to work with.”
“Emma did a really great job looking after Florence and Reddington - this turned out to be a longer trip than planned at the last minute (almost 3 weeks) and she extended her visits with no hesitation, spending extra time with them to make sure they were well looked after and had the company needed while we were away so long. Her patience with Florence certainly paid off, I’m glad she finally warmed to her and got her head scrunches 🥰 Thank you Emma!”
“Uriaha did an exceptional job watching over our two boys. We would highly recommend them based on their timeliness and care for them. Both Max and Jake interacted with Uriaha and for Jake who is shy that was special.”
“Carrie helped me at the last minute! So grateful for her support and professionalism. She understood our kittens special needs and kept him safe. I recommend Carrie to any pet owner fortunate enough to book her. Thank You!”

“Larry was amazing. It’s easy to tell that he loves dogs and has a kind way of describing dogs who naught be a little “unique “. Our dogs really enjoyed time with him and came home exhausted, just like after a great vacation. Grateful to have found him.”
“Renee was an amazing sitter for our pup! She was kind, attentive, and truly treated him like one of her own. A great bonus was that her dog was nice playmate, which kept our pup happy and entertained. She sent photos and videos throughout the stay, which we really appreciated. We also ended up needing a little extra time for pickup, and Renee was incredibly accommodating and flexible. We’re so grateful for her care and would definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors over the years. Through those experiences I’ve learned that every dog has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, and I always try to make them feel safe and at home. I’ve also cared for senior dogs, including administering injectable medication to my own dog when she became diabetic, which taught me patience, attention to detail, and the importance of following care instructions carefully. Whether your dog is energetic or prefers a quiet environment, I’ll provide attentive care, regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. Our schedules allow us to provide pets with plenty of attention and companionship throughout their stay. While there may be times when pets are home alone, we typically plan our schedules so they are not left alone for more than about 4 hours at a time. We plan around each booking as much as possible to maintain your pet’s normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. We’re always happy to discuss your pet’s routine and supervision needs before. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and organized home where every pet receives individual attention. Before each stay, I take time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide the best possible care. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, every walk and potty break is supervised, and I never leave pets outside unattended. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay so you always know how they’re doing.

I have lots of time for long walks and play sessions with your pups. I will do every little thing you tell me, your sweet little fur-baby, your rules! I am good at following directions and I could never imagine putting an animal in any danger.
“Carrie was an amazing walker and companion for my dog Ruby! She went above and beyond, walked her, played with her, took multiple pictures so I felt like I was there, even brought in my mail. Carrie’s help made my week so much better. Thank you, Carrie!”
“Nicole responded quickly, was punctual, and a great communicator. My dog was calm and happy when I got home after his walk with her. She even sent me cute pics of their walk :)”

“Very communicative and helped clean up a really terrible accident our pup had while we were away 😳💩lots of cute pics and info about their walks. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, through raising and training two dogs growing up, I also was the local dog watcher. After this I have happily walked and boarded dogs to help supply pet parents the best care for their needs while away! I enjoy spending time with animals and give them the love they deserve! I am currently staying at home so I can easily care for your pets! I am available for morning, afternoon and evenings to provide care anytime of day or night. I give our cats the best care in the home, they have trees, scratch pads, I am always home to change the litter box, and toys to play with. They are the sweetest cats! When I take care of other pets I make sure food, water, litter box or taking the animal outside for 30 min+ walk 2x a day.
“Caring, gentle and accommodating-we were so lucky to find Dean. He came out to the Ritz to care for our pups twice a day for 3 straight days while we were vacationing. The dogs loved him and so did we. He is a lovely human, a genuine dog lover, super conscientious and very trustworthy! We would definitely recommend Dean and would certainly engage him on our next trip. Thanks for taking such good care of Wrigley and Champ!”

I’ve also fostered many kittens and puppies and I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats, the majority rescues. I’m a huge animal lover! I am mostly a stay at home mom with 4 pets. We take the dogs on daily walks and sometimes to the park. We are always spending time outdoors in our spacious back yard with our dogs running around and cats climbing trees and roofs and such! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats both very friendly if spending time together! I also have a fenced in yard with a garden. I have a separate indoor petroom stocked with a couple crates (if needed for my big dog), enclosed cat litter boxes, a large cat climbing tree, plenty of pet food and treats, many water bowls and toys for all! And a very family friendly neighborhood for walks and a spacious (not fenced) park as well.

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up I had two Lhasa Apso pups and two cats so caring for pets has been a big part of my life. As they got older, I helped give them their medications and make them feel comfortable. Over the years, my family has added three pups - two Toy Poodles and one Shih Tzu, who I have helped raised since they were puppies. I also have two of my own: an Australian Shepherd and a Bernese Mountain Dog, both whom I have raised since they were 8 weeks old. Through them, I have lots of experience in puppy training and recognizing that each pup is unique and has different needs. I also have experience caring for cats. My childhood cat developed health issues in her senior years, and I helped care for her through monthly vet visits and multiple medications, giving me first hand experience with the extra patience and attention senior cats need. My family also added a friendly tuxedo kitten to the bunch and my boyfriend has a shy cat as well. So I am comfortable caring for cats with outgoing or more reserved feline personalities. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they're in my care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or a senior needing extra patience, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I have plenty of time to look after your pup or feline! While I prefer to watch your pet between 8-5 so I can also spend time with my own pets, I understand there are times after work or on the weekends when you need to leave your furry friend to go and enjoy yourself without feeling guilty leaving them behind. In these cases, I can absolutely make exceptions. Every pet has their own routine, preferences, and unique needs so I will take the time to follow your care instructions closely. Whether that's sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medications, or going on walks, I will make sure your pet's routine stays as consistent as possible. My goal is to help your pet feel safe and give you peace of mind knowing your pet is cared for and loved while you're away. I'll care for them the way you ask while also treating them with the same affection and attention I give my own pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, so I will do everything to care for them!

“Cooper couldn't get out of the car fast enough to run to Uriaha. He loves playing with a ball and thoroughly enjoyed running around and having fun in their lovely fenced-in yard. It made me happy to see that Cooper feels right at home there.”
“Tracy is the best! She took such good care of my dog, Will, he thinks he was at doggie camp! He had the run of the yard, got along well with other dogs, played his favorite games, took long walks. Excellent communication. Tracy sent frequent updates and photos, let me know how he was doing everyday. I had an extended unexpected travel delay, and Tracy was just great! I highly recommend her, and I definitely hope she’ll be able to take care of my Will the next time I travel.”
“Renee is a lifesaver! We brought our dog to the beach for her first time and learned she didn’t want to be left alone in our condo. We had a tour and activities planned so we quickly started searching and messaged Renee on Rover and she responded within minutes. She agreed to dog sit Poppy at her home on very short notice allowing us to keep our plans for the weekend. She kept us updated frequently by sending pics and videos and taking such great care of our dog. I highly recommend Renee for any pet sitting needs and being so accommodating and thoughtful, we really appreciate her!”
“Sara was absolutely amazing with my Shih Tzu, Chloe. From the moment we met her, her personality was so warm and kind, and it immediately made me feel comfortable leaving Chloe in her care. She kept me updated and treated Chloe like she was her own. It meant so much to hear that everyone fell in love with Chloe while she was there—it reassured me that she was getting lots of love and attention. I’m so grateful for the care Sara gave her and would absolutely trust her again in the future. Highly recommend! 🐾💛”
“Excellent experience! Eboni is definitely a dog whisperer and my dog was very well cared for during her stay. Thank you Eboni for all you do to make it easy for dog owners to entrust their furbaby to you”
“Kelly took great care of our 3 1/2 year old whippet while we were on a 3+ week international trip. He was recovering from an injury that had required stitches and Kelly was wonderful in making sure he had the appropriate activity level and administering his medication until he was completely well. Kelly was always accessible & responsive to texts, etc., & she provided us with much appreciated photos & videos of our boy while we were gone. Her property has plenty of room for exercise & play which is wonderful for all dogs, including a very active whippet. Knowing that our dog was being well taken care of in a home environment allowed us to have a vacation where we didn't have to worry that he was safe and loved. It was a wonderful gift from Kelly!”

“We couldn't have found a better place for our pup to be! Austyn sent daily pictures and updates and our dog loved having such a big fenced in yard to play in! Great experience, will definitely be rebooking with Austyn !”
“I had such a great experience! My dogs clearly had an amazing time and looked like they were having the time of their lives. Brooke was very attentive and kept me updated throughout their stay, sending pictures every day and letting me know how they were eating and doing. I really appreciated the communication and knowing that they were being well cared for. When they came home, they were completely worn out, which tells me they had a wonderful time! I’m very happy with the care they received and will definitely be using Brooke again. Highly recommend!”
About: Hey pet parents! My name is Skyla. I am genuinely one of the biggest dog lovers you will EVER meet. I have had a strong passion and so much love for dogs since I was little. When your dog boards with me, you have the option to allow them to play with my dogs (I have had my dogs since they were puppies-they are very well behaved and friendly) or stay separate. Nothing wrong with solo play! Regardless of your decision-they will get SO much affection. I do require food to be supplied by owner so we can avoid any belly aches-but with owner permission, I will give them lots of dog treats. They will get lots of playtime in the yard & walks if you choose. This will be their home away from home! I can assure you-they will be safe, fed, and happy. All of the dogs I board get their own bedroom dedicated to them because I feel like dogs need a safe space when they’re in a new environment. Our yard is completely fenced in & the neighborhood is very safe. My personal dogs have their own bedroom. I have had dogs here before that the owner did not want them playing with my dogs so keeping dogs separate is not an issue if you wish. Feel free to ask any questions:) All dogs get daily exercise + play time & mental stimulation…this includes walks around the neighborhood. My job is very flexible so I am home most of the time. I do have crates available for your dog to stay in if you wish. My home is furnished with plenty of dog toys and treats, so your pup will always be occupied! Fresh water is always available. My pets are allowed on the furniture, so your dog will feel at home.
“Great overall experience. We would recommend Wendy for any long-term booking. Good updates with pictures for a 7-day stay of our two dogs. Large backyard for the dogs to play. She followed our requested instructions and we had zero issues.”
“My dog had fun during the stay, playing with the two other dogs. He was happy when I got him back. I got plenty of pictures during the stay, and a good communication with Shannon. I'd book him again :-)”
“Edward is a “Dog Whisperer”! He was GREAT with my dog Milli. Kept me informed of her well being and what a wonderful time she had with him. I would recommend him to anyone that wants their dog treated with loving care! Thank you, Edward! I would give you 10 stars but the scale only goes up to five.😊👏🏽👍🏽”
“Cara and her husband Thomas are heaven sent! I am extremely grateful for how much attention and love they showed my baby Kasper over the weekend he spent with them. Can’t forget about their precious dog Ruby. My Kasper and Ruby got along great! They sent several updates and pictures each day which helped me be at ease. I would highly recommend Cara to take care of your fur baby. She made me feel at peace leaving my fur baby while we vacationed for the weekend. Thank you!!!”
“Allie was great! Our family would recommend for anyone to have Allie watch you dog. She is very active and had Marshall a dog park everyday. She also sent pictures and updated us. 5+ stars for Allie and her dog Odin. Both made Marshall feel at home.”
“Kaitland and her family gave love and Wonderful care to my dog. Mila , my dog looked happy, calm, and well taking care of when I picked her up. This made me feel so great. Thank you Kaitland and your family!!”
