“She was absolutely amazingly and her family was outstanding also. They took very good care of my Nala. I will definitely recommend her and will always use her if possible.”

“I am SO happy that we booked with Jackie!! When I arrived she showed me where my babies were staying and it was comfortable and they had plenty of room to run around. We got a bunch of photos and videos. Communication was phenomenal. She was amazing and our two mini Schnauzers had a blast. We would definitely book again.”

“Idalis and her husband are great. My dog seemed to get comfortable right away with them. They took great care of my dog while we were away. We have found our new dog sitter.”

“We had a fantastic experience with Alexus! This was our first time using Rover, and she made the entire process so easy. We probably overwhelmed her with a bunch of information about our dogs, but she handled everything perfectly. We loved receiving pictures of Webster and Charlotte and felt completely at ease knowing they were well-loved. We are very thankful and will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Denny and Robert always makes sure our pup is well taken care of! Last time we dropped him off, he was literally squeaking with excitement as we turned onto their street. Our dog LOVES staying with them.”

“We are immensely appreciative and pleased with the care Dennis and Adriana have given to our baby, Romeo. Romeo is 15+ years old and blind, therefore, needs special care and attention. Finding the right person to care for our baby when we travel can be stressful. Dennis and Adriana have proven to be an excellent choice. We highly recommend them and will opt for their services again to look after our fur baby in the future.”


“Krista is always amazing!! She truly treats our pups with the greatest care. We have two dogs, one is always a social butterfly, the other is a little more shy/reserved - but Krista does a great job tailoring to each's needs when she does have a full house of other puppos. We always get updates/pics showing how well our fur babies are being treated. Our dogs absolutely love Krista!”

“I couldn’t be more grateful for the care my dog Blue received! He stayed for a full week and had the best time, he got to play with other dogs, and it was clear he was having so much fun. I got daily updates (which I really appreciated!) and could tell he was in such good hands the whole time. She truly treated him like her own, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Super sweet, lots of communication. I felt super comfortable leaving my baby. I got picture mail throughout, and could tell she and her family genuinely love and care about animals. Will definitely be using again!”

“I am so glad that I found Carolina and her family. She is a true animal lover, and it shows in how much attention and patience she had put into caring for my cat, Mochi. Carolina went far and above beyond expectations. My Mochi had a big beautiful room with a brightly quilted bunk bed to climb on and plenty of cat trees, scratching posts, and windows in which to luxuriate in the sun. He could also enjoy piped-in music throughout the day and a big flat screen TV. He was warmly welcomed into the family home, roaming freely and playing with Carolina's many pets. He loved his vacation at Carolina's as much as I had enjoyed mine! I might also mention one aspect of this Rover experience that is critical for me and should be important to consider for other pet owners. Carolina keeps her boarding spaces immaculate. Bedding, cushions, and bowls are spotlessly sanitized, and all of her pets are on a rigid flea and worm prevention program, so there is no danger of cross contamination. I am very pleased and feel that my Mochi had a five star hotel experience for a fraction of the price.”

“Shayla did a great job watching our dog Cooke. We are so happy to have found a dog sitter that is so caring for my dog and provides daily updates / pictures. I would highly recommend Shayla to anyone that needs a great and caring dog sitter.”

“I'm so glad I found Maxine! This is my second time using her service.. and I will definitely rebook with her! Thanks for another fun doggy vacation time for Daisy. She loves the walks and the chance to play with other doggies! You're the best!”

“Mary and Mark were wonderful to work with. Molly is a senior dog and she was well taken care of for our long weekend away. I was comfortable with the environment right away. Mary was very loving with Molly and she worked with me to understand the needs she has. I received pictures, texts, and video updates throughout the weekend and knew that I had nothing to worry about. So happy to have found her. Highly recommend and have booked her again in November! Thank you for being so caring.”

“We couldn't be happier with the care our fur babies received during their stay with Andrea. This was the first time we left them with anyone other than family or friends. We will use Andrea again without hesitation”


“Jennifer did a great job with our pup, Lucca. I felt totally comfortable knowing Lucca was in a good place. There is lots of room to roam at Jennifer's, yet she keeps a close eye on the animals. Lucca had a nice big kennel crate to sleep in. We received daily updates and pictures of Lucca while we were gone. Lucca even wished me a Happy Mother's Day, lol. I especially liked that Jennifer was flexible with her schedule if we needed and extra few hours or a day. Her response time is excellent. There was no "waiting to hear back" so I was able to proceed with planning our trip in a timely manner. I would recommend Jennifer to anyone needing care for their pet(s). I will definitely return should the occasion arise. Thanks, Jennifer!”

“I just want to start off by saying Sheryl & James were the best pet sitters ever! This was my first time leaving mylo with any sitter and was very nervous but they reassured me with ease he would be in great hands! Sheryl kept me updated and sent me tons of photos and videos with updates. Tucker and Mylo became best friends and enjoyed his time there☺️ So glad I found a sitter I can trust and leave my Mylo without having to worry! Can’t wait for future visits”

“Berkley is awesome! Amazing communicator, went above and beyond with my kitties. I appreciated all the photos and updates with every visit. I felt very comfortable while I was out of town knowing my cats were absolutely safe and cared for. Thanks so much Berkley!!”


“I could tell once I came home my dogs (2 big 65 lbs boys) were super happy and relaxed after Ernest's visits. He is great with communication and I feel has proven to be very dependable. You can see he loves dogs and dogs love him. I look forward to working with him again in the future.”


“Brooke did such a great job! This was my first time using Rover and I’m so thankful I found someone who was trustworthy while I was away from home. It’s obvious how much she cares about animals and will treat yours like her own. She even brought in my packages and took photos to share on every trip to my home. She happily checked in on the fishy and took the dogs for walks which is so appreciated!”

About: My name is Omi, and caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My love for pets began in childhood while growing up in Puerto Rico, where I was surrounded by cats, dogs and many other animals. Living with so many different animals taught me from an early age how to understand their unique personalities, care for their needs, and appreciate the unconditional love they give. My very first pet was a Chihuahua with a wonderfully spicy personality who quickly became a cherished member of our family. As I got older, I naturally became the person family, friends, and neighbors trusted to care for their pets whenever they traveled. I regularly looked after my aunt's dog, Rosie, cared for my neighbor's cat, Chloe, spent time with my cousin's Husky, Brooklyn, and cared for my sister's three cats by feeding them and making sure they were happy and comfortable while she was away. I truly believe every pet deserves to feel loved, safe, and cared for just as they would at home. I have a naturally nurturing personality and genuinely enjoy spending quality time with animals, whether that means going on long walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, offering plenty of affection, or simply keeping them company. I understand that every pet has its own personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, secure, and loved. Today, I still enjoy caring for animals and currently have a betta fish of my own. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet cuddle, I will treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I know how much our pets mean to us because they truly are family, and I would be honored to care for yours while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and spend only a few hours each day on my computer. This gives me plenty of flexibility to provide your pet with the attention, companionship, and care they deserve throughout the day. I have a fully fenced yard where pets can safely play and explore, and there's also a nearby dog park for walks, exercise, and extra enrichment if desired. I make sure every pet receives plenty of love, playtime, affection, and one-on-one attention while respecting their individual personalities and routines. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm, relaxed environment, I'll make them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel as comfortable and loved as possible. I carefully follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure, so I strive to maintain the routine they're accustomed to. I provide plenty of affection, exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship while ensuring they always have access to fresh water and a clean, safe environment. Communication is also important to me. I'll send regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, healthy, and receiving the same love and attention they would get at home. Every pet is unique, and I treat each one like a member of my own family.
“My golden doodle, Brandy had her first sleep over with Charles and she loved it! While there, Brandy was treated like family. She was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I received pictures of Brandy and updates. The yard is incredibly big, fenced in, lots of shade. This is a perfect place for any dog to be!”

“Maggie is awesome! Murphey had a blast hanging out with her for the day. She treated him like he was her own, sent tons of pics and literally made me feel so at ease. I will definitely book her again!”

“***** that's 5 more to make 10. Charli and her family-the human and furry kind-far exceeded my expectations! Several videos and updates. She worked hard to help my somewhat new rescue come out of her shell...and was beyond successful! She speaks our language! By the time I got back after 8hrs, Athena was conflicted about whether she wanted to stay or go. She has a gift to be cherished! Thank you!”

“Shayla was AWESOME! She was very upfront on how she engages with the dogs through our the day and answered all my questions. This was my first time for my dog to be away from my partner and I for more than an hour so of course I was nervous. I was nervous for no reason! Our dog didn't even realize we were gone and had a blast being in Shaylas care all day and playing with the other dogs! He was absolutely in doggy paradise!”

About: I've had animals all my life. Dogs, cats, bunnies and guinea pigs! I have always been an animal lover! Currently my husband and I have 2 toy poodles-Teddy and Tucker-both turning 10 this year (2025). I was a stay at home mom to my two children, my son who almost 20-he's off at college and my daughter who is 28 and married. So now I'm officially a stay at home dog mom to Teddy and Tucker. We own our home, we have a fenced in yard and our two sweet pups would love to play with your little one. I'm a non smoker, almost never drink and taking care of the pups is what I love to do.

“Holly was on time and extremely responsive. I was in a bind and needed someone next day to let Nash out in the evening and in the morning. She responded within 5min of me reaching out and we scheduled a meet and greet 1st thing in the morning and she was on time and extremely professional. On both days she was on time and walked him as expected and communicated updates and pictures. Really put my mind at ease while I was out of town”

“Mike has been walking my 2 big dogs, 70 and 90 lb. Bouvier des Flandres, for approximately 2 months. He’s great with them; patient with my girl and can control my boy who can be a challenge. He’s even given me tips on how he gets my boy to behave (Leo at age 2 is impulsive and reactive, especially with golf carts). I even see a difference when I walk them. I’d highly recommend Mike, especially if you have big dogs!”

“We had a fantastic experience with Alexus! This was our first time using Rover, and she made the entire process so easy. We probably overwhelmed her with a bunch of information about our dogs, but she handled everything perfectly. We loved receiving pictures of Webster and Charlotte and felt completely at ease knowing they were well-loved. We are very thankful and will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend!”


“Krista is always amazing!! She truly treats our pups with the greatest care. We have two dogs, one is always a social butterfly, the other is a little more shy/reserved - but Krista does a great job tailoring to each's needs when she does have a full house of other puppos. We always get updates/pics showing how well our fur babies are being treated. Our dogs absolutely love Krista!”

“I couldn’t be more grateful for the care my dog Blue received! He stayed for a full week and had the best time, he got to play with other dogs, and it was clear he was having so much fun. I got daily updates (which I really appreciated!) and could tell he was in such good hands the whole time. She truly treated him like her own, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Super sweet, lots of communication. I felt super comfortable leaving my baby. I got picture mail throughout, and could tell she and her family genuinely love and care about animals. Will definitely be using again!”

“Shayla did a great job watching our dog Cooke. We are so happy to have found a dog sitter that is so caring for my dog and provides daily updates / pictures. I would highly recommend Shayla to anyone that needs a great and caring dog sitter.”

“We couldn't be happier with the care our fur babies received during their stay with Andrea. This was the first time we left them with anyone other than family or friends. We will use Andrea again without hesitation”


“Jennifer did a great job with our pup, Lucca. I felt totally comfortable knowing Lucca was in a good place. There is lots of room to roam at Jennifer's, yet she keeps a close eye on the animals. Lucca had a nice big kennel crate to sleep in. We received daily updates and pictures of Lucca while we were gone. Lucca even wished me a Happy Mother's Day, lol. I especially liked that Jennifer was flexible with her schedule if we needed and extra few hours or a day. Her response time is excellent. There was no "waiting to hear back" so I was able to proceed with planning our trip in a timely manner. I would recommend Jennifer to anyone needing care for their pet(s). I will definitely return should the occasion arise. Thanks, Jennifer!”


“Brittany is fantastic! She took great care of my anxious and clingy boy and he was in love with her by the time I took him home. She kept me updated and sent me lots of photos. I highly recommend her services, she will treat your puppy with love and care. She's also fun to talk to and very easy going! I feel blessed meeting her!”

“Kristin is so nice my dog loved being there and she’s on top of her messages always gets back to you with a quick turnaround time. I felt very comfortable having my dog with her two different times.”

“This was the first time we ever boarded our 2 dogs so I was definitely on edge. What a relief that we found such a wonderful caring sitter! Lynnette sent us pictures and a video which was greatly appreciated! Dogs loved their mini vacation where they had a fenced in yard to play, and we enjoyed our vacation without worrying about their care!”

I highly recommend Kayla for anyone looking for a caring & trustworthy petsitter and would definitely choose to book with her again.”

“Andrew and his family were amazing boarders for my 2 young, rambunctious dogs. Booking and communication were simple and easy. Drop and pick-up easy. Andrew was accommodation and always ready for the exchange. His home is safe and spacious. His yard is amazing, grassy and of course, fenced. Pictures of their antics we so reassuring. I could not be happier that we found Andrew for my fur babies. Highly recommend.”

“Heather was amazing and took the best care of my pups! I’d been worried about leaving them, as one has been a bit anxious lately, but she cared for them as if they were her own! I got pictures and updates daily, which helped put my mind at ease. Heather also answered many of my questions when meeting her before I even asked, which was the biggest selling point for me. My pups came home tired and happy- would definitely recommend!”

“She was great with communicating how my babies were and if there was any problems. Asked for advice when one of my pups was not settling in well and gave her tips. Pick up and drop off was a breeze”
