“Long overdue review, but Cristy took absolutely amazing care of our dear pet dog, Cousteau! She was very responsible and is clearly very comfortable caring for a variety of dogs. I would highly recommend her!”
“I used Mj to board my almost 14 year old senior pug and she was so wonderful! She has a warm and welcoming energy that you immediately feel safe with. My dog was very comfortable with her and her dog Bobby. She sent me daily updates and photos, which were really helpful and appreciated while being away! Her space was beautiful, clean, and perfect for pups to be in. It appears Oliver has made some new friends :). Thanks a bunch!!”
“My puppy absolutely enjoyed her boarding, she cried on her way home when I picked her up. Susan and her kids took great care of my puppy. She sent pictures and updates multiple times daily. I will absolutely be using her again.”
“This was the first time we were with Brian and his boys. We met in March to "check each other out" and it went very well and Brian accepted Brooklyn as a guest in May. Brian was very attentive and sent me daily updates and photos. I fully expect Brooklyn will visit again in the future. If you are looking for a loving temporary home for your baby don't hesitate, glad I didn't.”
“Excellent! Sasha has truly been an angel in disguise. Had a last minute medical emergency and she was able to take care of my kitty cat Colby for me. I would highly recommend Sasha. Very nice people and extremely helpful. A+++ Thank you!!”
“Joanna is great. It was such a relief knowing our dog was in safe, loving, and attentive hands while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her service!”
“First time with Sarah and she was great with my dogs. I was able to enjoy my vacation and saw pics of my dogs playing with others. I won't hesitate to bring them to her again!”
“Andrea was a God send! My husband and I did and 8 day roadtrip through yellowstone and Grand Teton. She and her husband kept our maltipoo Joon. Joon made friends with their 2 dogs and had the best time playing the entire time. Andrea sent updates and pictures everyday and I felt so relieved to know she was in such good hands. We will be using her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“We found Juan and his family last minute, they were very accommodating especially with it being a holiday weekend. They have a beautiful home with everyone being so welcoming and loving. An amazing back yard with lots of room and designated areas to keep dogs active and entertained. Juan kept in touch daily with pictures, messages and videos. She came back happy and relaxed. It was one of the best dog sitting experiences I’ve had. You can tell by how personable that they care. It was like leaving my pup with family. Thank you again and would love to book again for get always and we have been talking about thinking of dog daycare so she can be more socialized.”
“Sam is friendly and professional. Sam emails and sends pictures of Sol, my 9 year old cockapoo. She lets me know if he is not eating and prepares special for him. Sol loves going to stay with Sam and her family. This is s perfect match!”
“My doggies stayed several days with Ashley, Jacob and E and were outstanding sitters. My dogs were well taken care of, having plenty of playtime, belly rubs & cuddles.”
“Luke was very professional and did a great job with my 2 golden doodles. I got regular updates and pictures reassuring that they were doing great in his care. I will definitely be using him again for future trips.”
“Rolanda and her family took such wonderful care of my two pets during their long stay. Roma enjoyed the fenced yard and all the loving attention, and they were incredibly patient with Ollie, who started out shy and needed extra time to feel safe. The updates Rolanda sent during the week gave me real peace of mind, and it was clear my pets were treated like part of the family. I’m truly grateful for their care and will definitely book again!”
“Omg Carmin proved to be one of Cali's finest sitters. She demonstrated exceptional attentiveness to Cali's needs, going the extra mile to ensure Cali had the best experience.She maintained open communication through texts, addressing questions and concerns, and thoughtfully shared pictures and videos. Grateful for your care, Carmin.”
“Caroline was excellent and took great care of Leo for the short time. She sent photos and updates throughout the weekend which gave peace of mind. She even took amazing photos that are print worthy! Thank you!”
“An amazing family to leave my furbabies with! They were attentive and welcoming to my boys, great pics and fun walks with them. Can’t thank them enough for the love and care.”
“We are repeat customers and there is no doubt I would rather leave my dogs with Lilliana than anyone else! We even travel about 30 minutes to leave our dogs with her - that’s how great she is! Our dogs come home tired and happy and we love it. We’ve referred a couple friends to her and they love her as well. Please don’t ever stop dog sitting, Lilliana!”

“Once again, Dan went above and beyond with caring for our cat Tucker and our tortoise Leo. He is great at communcating just the right amount so we can be worry free on our vacation. We will absolutely request him again!”
“Lori is a great sitter. She sits with my cat baby and spends the full time hanging out with my animals. She sends pics and is a good communicator. I highly recommend her and look to book her every time!”
“Caitlyn did an amazing job with my cats! One is over 20 years old and the other requires medication, and she handled both with great care. She was always on time, thorough with her Rover cards, and sent lots of wonderful photos. I felt completely at ease knowing my cats were in such good hands. I highly recommend her and will definitely be a repeat customer!”
“We loved having Zachary take care of our boy Tucker! Zachary went above and beyond to spend time with our cat and send us messages and pictures. He is highly communicative and so caring. We highly recommend him!”
“Jenna was very communicative while taking care of my 2 cats while I was away for vacation. I have one very friendly cat and one that is very shy. She catered to both of their personalities perfectly! You can tell she has a lot of experience taking care of cats and it really shows! This was my first time using rover and I’m glad we had a great experience!”
“Jackalyn is an excellent pet sitter. She took care of our cat while we spent time at the beach. Not only did she make sure our cat was fed, but she also played with her, opened and closed the window blinds for her, and even brushed her. On top of that, she fed our fish and managed the aquarium light schedule in the morning and evening. Jackalyn demonstrated a genuine love for animals and consistently went above and beyond in caring for our pets. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“Joy is an absolute JOY to work with. Her attention to detail is fantastic and you can tell she truly cares about animals. She took amazing care of my 2 kitty girls while my family was on vacation 🩷 I’m so grateful for her and the care she gave my babies while I was away. I look forward to working with Joy again in the near future!!”
“I am so thankful to have Kathleen watch my sweet senior kitty while I was on vacation. She is always communicating with me with updates and sending photos and videos to let me see how my cat is doing. I trust her completely with administering her medication as well. I can truly relax on vacation knowing that my cat is so well cared for. Thank you Kathleen!”
“We love Peter! This is the second time he’s helped watch our kitties and he was just as wonderful as the first time. He follows instructions well, asks questions which shows he cares, and always leaves everything clean and back in its place. We really appreciate that he’s able to accommodate us by taking our high energy cat outside once a day as well. Highly recommend!”
“Shirley is the best. Not only is she an amazing person overall, but she’s the best pet sitter I’ve ever had for my 4 kitty cats. I was shocked that my one cat, who is usually terrified of new people, let her pet him on the second day! She really has a way with animals. You can tell she loves and cares for them deeply. While I was gone I got daily updates and pictures most days. Shirley really went above and beyond to care for my cats. She went over twice a day and hung out with them, let them out on the patio (which is their favorite thing ever). She even helped take out our trash and brought our mail in, which she didn’t have to do. I’ll definitely be a returning customer!”
“My cats and I could not be happier. I was able to take a guilt free vacation and the cats avoided having to go to a kennel. I will definitely rebook Debbie next time I go away.”
“Great response time. Was able to book Michelle a week in advance (I’m a serious procrastinator), she sent me numerous photos of my pups and kept me informed. Will definitely use for our next vacation.”
About: I have cared for cats in a pet store setting (cats for adoption on site) as well as in a veterinary kennel. I have 3 cat babies and have always grown up around them! Both my kids have said “kitty” as one of their first few words if that says anything about how much we love cats over here 🐱💕
About: I grew up always having at least one pet. The first chore I was ever assigned was actually taking care of our cat and dog (at the time) and I did that for a while. Around middle school I started dog-sitting for my parents and I’ve been doing that for quite some time now. I’ve never met an animal (that isn’t super skittish) that doesn’t love or at the very least ‘tolerate’ me. My dogs will follow me around the house or sometimes paw/bark at my door just to see me. Even when it comes to skittish animals (especially cats) they usually warm up to me very quickly. My grandma’s stray rescue cat is petrified of everyone but my grandma. After a week of staying over at my grandma’s she would walk up to me on her own and even sit in my lap. I’m free almost 24/7 except when I’m asleep. I’m currently searching for a job hence the very flexible schedule. I don’t mind late night visits or early morning, my sleep schedule is just as flexible if not more. I respect animals the same way you would people, although we don’t have verbal communication it’s very easy to tell what an animal is feeling based on their body language. I can be stern and assertive without being overly aggressive or anything of that sort. Additionally, I am very respectful of others spaces and homes. I believe heavily in treat others how you want to be treated, so I behave as such and I think that reflects in my pet-care and work ethic
About: I've been caring for animals of all sizes for most of my adult life. I spent several years caring for animals professionally at a pet boarding facility in Sanford. I also learned a lot about animal care while working as a receptionist in a veterinary clinic. I'm currently only working free lance for a delivery company and am able to dedicate the majority of my time to caring for your pets. It is important to me that your pet sticks to their regular routine while you are away. I always schedule a meeting before booking to take detail notes on your pets daily routine.

About: I pet sit small to medium dogs in my home and yours if needed. I walk, exercise and play with them. Spend quality time with them. I do not cat sit in my home. I will go to your home and look after your cat. Litter change, feed and spend time with pet. As I mentioned, I do not sit cats in my house but I will visit your home and care for your cat in their environment.
“Sarah was absolutely amazing with Mia! She is highly communicative, kept me updated throughout the day, and sent lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. Mia had an incredible day and came home happy and tired—which, as every dog owner knows, means she had a great time! Sarah also went above and beyond by accepting not one, but TWO last-minute bookings for me, which I truly appreciated. It’s clear that Sarah genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and Mia was so comfortable and happy with her. We’re both very happy customers, and Mia is already excited to go back tomorrow! 🐾🐾🐾 Thank you, Sarah! We highly recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional Rover sitter.”
About: Caring for pets has always been a part of my life! I’ve grown up with dogs at home and have looked after them with love and responsibility. Friends and family have trusted me many times to care for their pets while they’re away, whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply spending quality time playing and keeping them company. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently not working a traditional job, which allows me to have the time and flexibility to care for pets with love and attention. I’m looking for a job that brings me joy and purpose, while still giving me the freedom to be there for my family. When I care for pets in their own home, I always aim to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or any special needs they may have. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and never alone. I also like to keep pet parents updated with photos and messages, so they can feel at ease knowing their furry friend is in good hands.

“Here's a revised version of your review with some enhancements for clarity and flow: --- Sasha was wonderful! I was initially nervous about leaving my dog with someone unfamiliar, but as soon as Sasha met him, she showered him with love, and he was very happy. He didn’t even notice when I left! I felt a huge relief knowing he was in good hands. Sasha was incredibly kind and even sent me pictures, which made me even happier. I would absolutely choose Sasha to care for my dog again.”
“Irene is a rescued dog who has been with us for over a year. She’s naturally skittish and gets stressed easily, so finding the right person to care for her was very important to us especially after the loss of our beloved Sophie, who was with us for 14 years. Before choosing a sitter, my husband and I carefully reviewed several Rover profiles, and Rita’s immediately stood out. We were drawn to her empathy and experience with rescue dogs and those with medical needs. After a meet-and-greet that went very well, we felt confident giving it a try. Over the past few months, Irene has been in Rita’s care several times, and each visit has only reassured us. We can see that Irene is becoming more comfortable, which speaks volumes about Rita’s patience and compassion. She keeps us updated with pictures throughout the day and always sends a detailed report card afterward, which we truly appreciate. Rita is kind, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to the well-being of the dogs she cares for. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for their beloved pet. 🐶”
“Rolando was great ! She sent me picture and videos through out the day. My 4 month old golden retriever has a great time . He had a lot of space to run and roam . My pup had a great time! Thank you so much for letting him spend the day with you . I will definitely have him stay with her again .”
About: Hi! I’m Victoria, a local Sanford dog sitter and proud dog mom to Leo, my toy schnauzer. I provide a safe, loving home environment where dogs are treated like family—not just pets. No cramped kennels or long hours alone. They’ll have the run of the house, plenty of outdoor time, belly rubs, treats, and all the love they could ask for. A brief Meet & Greet is required prior to sitting for all new clients to assure compatibility. I work remotely, which means your dog will have companionship and supervision throughout the day. Whether they’re here for a weekend getaway or an extended stay, they’ll enjoy plenty of outdoor breaks, playtime, cuddles, and individualized attention. I intentionally keep my boarding numbers low to create a calm, low-stress environment where every dog receives the care they deserve. We have policies in place to make sure dogs, who are escape artists, aren’t able to make a run for it, we space feeding time and walking time as research has shown eating prior to a walk and immediately after can cause bloating and other complications. It’s my mission your dog is safe at all times so you can worry less when your dog is not with you.
“Carmin was a superb Doggy Day Care host. I can see why she's booked all the time! Aside from the dogs enjoying themselves, she's a great communicator—always prompt in returning messages, and sending lots of photos, as well. We hope to see her again—if she has an open date!”

“Rachel did a great job taking care of Charlie. He was calm when I arrived to pick him up. Rachel reported that he ate his dinner with no problem and didn't bark once. Setting up the appointment was easy as was communication. Rachel provided a calm, safe, orderly environment for Charlie to relax and feel at home. And that helped me to relax, knowing he was well taken care of.”

About: I’ve taken care of family pets since I was a young teenager and have since taken care of my own fur babies for the past 8 years. I also have veterinary experience as I currently am a Veterinary Assistant with 3 years of experience. You can rest assured that your pets are safe with me and would be treated as my own. Allow me to alleviate a possible stressor in your travels by being a trusted pet sitter for your fur family. I understand from first hand experience with my own that each fur baby can be different and require additional needs, I am willing and capable of catering the service I provide to be as best as it can for your particular fur baby. Comfortable and experienced with Dogs, Cats, and some smaller exotics (Guinea Pigs, Gerbils, etc). I currently work full-time at a vet clinic, however, I am fully available Wednesdays and Sundays with 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month being available as well. Even with work, I am able to make early morning, afternoon, and evening trips during my work days as well, if needed, as I start at 8am, take lunch 12-1pm and then am off by 6pm. For boarding stays, your fur-baby will be in their own dedicated room that will contain their food, water, bedding, and any additional necessities you’d like them to have with them. Mondays and Saturdays are the only days they would be by themselves in their room, however, they would still be taken out in the morning (before 7:30am), during my lunch break (12-1pm), and after work (6pm). The rest of the week, my partner (who also has been in the veterinary field) works from home in the same room your fur-baby would stay in and will be assisting with monitoring them while I’m away for work. I have experience with strict and more relaxed feeding instructions and specifications. I also have experience giving medications as well as bathing. From fenced backyards to leashed potty-breaks, I have you covered. While I have my own fur-babies, you can rest assure that your own baby will be kept in their dedicated room while staying for boarding with us (unless specifically given approval to mingle with my fur-babies during potty-time/play-time)
About: I’ve had fur babies for as long as I’ve been alive ranging from tiny chihuahuas to large pitties. I love all animals, but have the most experience with dogs. I’m a sucker for a good cuddle or kisses, as I’m sure you can tell from my pictures! I’m available for drop in visits and dog walking visits and would love to have some fun with your pet :) I’m currently working full time Monday-Thursday, but am available on those nights if needed for drop-in visits and at anytime on Fridays and the weekend. I’ll treat your fur baby as if it were my own and provide the love and care they deserve and more! If your pet is anything like mine, they aren’t always comfortable with strangers so I understand the importance of working at their pace and making sure we build trust.
About: Throughout the past few years, I've sat for several of my neighbors and friend’s dogs, from yorkies to pit bulls. This includes both walks and visits to provide food, water, and fun. Caring for my own dog, Charlotte, in recent years has given me experience in caring for senior dogs. This includes accommodating for hearing loss, blindness, low energy, and stomach problems. I am a student at UF looking for a fun way to spend my free time. My current schedule somewhat flexible other than my classes. On Monday, Wednesday, Friday, I am free early mornings until 8:00 AM, around noon, and in the evenings. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am available all morning until 11:30 and in the evenings after 5:00 PM. Weekends that are marked as available are flexible. This works around my classes schedule, volunteering, and other obligations. Safety is my number one priority when caring for your best friend(s). When walking dogs in Florida, I have found it extremely important to monitor the weather and your pets breathing. I will always ensure they have access to enough water and food at meal time. And if they’re allowed, I love giving them the occasional treat.
About: Caring for pets has always been a part of my life! I’ve grown up with dogs at home and have looked after them with love and responsibility. Friends and family have trusted me many times to care for their pets while they’re away, whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply spending quality time playing and keeping them company. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently not working a traditional job, which allows me to have the time and flexibility to care for pets with love and attention. I’m looking for a job that brings me joy and purpose, while still giving me the freedom to be there for my family. When I care for pets in their own home, I always aim to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or any special needs they may have. I make sure they feel safe, loved, and never alone. I also like to keep pet parents updated with photos and messages, so they can feel at ease knowing their furry friend is in good hands.
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life and believe that they have real feelings that should not be ignored. I have a tiny yorkie, Rissa, and a Pom puppy, Rambo. Your pet would be in very safe and loving hands while under my care. I am patient and kind, most dogs and animals will immediately be happy to be around me even if they are skittish. The majority become attached quickly and become my little shadows. :) I have been on Rover since June of 2015. In that time I have had 100+ bookings from different people and 50+ of these have booked more than once. I have watched over 100 different dogs and am very experienced in all types of pup personalities. These numbers do not include bookings from friends and neighbors who are not on the Rover website. I am over 30 years old and work from home. Your pup will have 24/7 supervision and attention. (Many pups enjoy supervising me work in my office) For safety, if I am out of the house, your dog would be baby-gated in the bedroom unless crate training is necessary or requested. If they get along with my dog and don't need to be separated, they can have free run of the house while I'm home. At night, they would have their bed or be crated in my room to sleep so they aren't lonely. If they can keep up and like to run, I will take them with me around the block as well! I also volunteer at TEARS animal rescue and want to make sure all animals are taken care of. What to bring: - Dog crate with blanket or bed - Dog food - Chew treats to keep them busy - Leash Do not bring: - Toys you care about a lot, the Roomba vacuum likes to hide them - Bowls, I have tons of bowls and don't want to mix yours up when I’m washing them
About: I have 10 years of experience when it comes to caring for animals and it has always been something I'm truly passionate about. I treat every pet with the same love, care, and attention I would give my own. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I'm happy to adapt to their individual needs. I'm committed to providing dependable care, keeping your pet's routine consistent, and sending regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I'm comfortable caring for pets of different ages and energy levels, including puppies who need extra patience and older pets who may require a gentler approach. My goal is to create a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your pet, ensuring they feel loved, happy, and well cared for every step of the way. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule right now. I recently finished my summer job as a camp counselor, so I currently have a very open and flexible schedule. This gives me plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care and make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and I love being able to help pet owners feel at ease while they're away. Whether it's a quick check-in, longterm stay, or spending extra time keeping your pet company, I'm happy to work with your schedule and your pet's individual needs! I believe pets are happiest and most comfortable when they can stay in a familiar environment with their normal routines. When caring for pets in their own homes, I make sure to follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, playtime, walks, litter box care, and any other specific needs your pet may have. I treat every home with respect and care, keeping things clean, secure, and just as I found them. My priority is creating a calm and positive experience for your pet while you’re away. I also value communication and will provide updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for!

“Long overdue review, but Cristy took absolutely amazing care of our dear pet dog, Cousteau! She was very responsible and is clearly very comfortable caring for a variety of dogs. I would highly recommend her!”
“My puppy absolutely enjoyed her boarding, she cried on her way home when I picked her up. Susan and her kids took great care of my puppy. She sent pictures and updates multiple times daily. I will absolutely be using her again.”
“This was the first time we were with Brian and his boys. We met in March to "check each other out" and it went very well and Brian accepted Brooklyn as a guest in May. Brian was very attentive and sent me daily updates and photos. I fully expect Brooklyn will visit again in the future. If you are looking for a loving temporary home for your baby don't hesitate, glad I didn't.”
“Andrea was a God send! My husband and I did and 8 day roadtrip through yellowstone and Grand Teton. She and her husband kept our maltipoo Joon. Joon made friends with their 2 dogs and had the best time playing the entire time. Andrea sent updates and pictures everyday and I felt so relieved to know she was in such good hands. We will be using her in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Sam is friendly and professional. Sam emails and sends pictures of Sol, my 9 year old cockapoo. She lets me know if he is not eating and prepares special for him. Sol loves going to stay with Sam and her family. This is s perfect match!”
“My doggies stayed several days with Ashley, Jacob and E and were outstanding sitters. My dogs were well taken care of, having plenty of playtime, belly rubs & cuddles.”
“Luke was very professional and did a great job with my 2 golden doodles. I got regular updates and pictures reassuring that they were doing great in his care. I will definitely be using him again for future trips.”
“Rolanda and her family took such wonderful care of my two pets during their long stay. Roma enjoyed the fenced yard and all the loving attention, and they were incredibly patient with Ollie, who started out shy and needed extra time to feel safe. The updates Rolanda sent during the week gave me real peace of mind, and it was clear my pets were treated like part of the family. I’m truly grateful for their care and will definitely book again!”
“Omg Carmin proved to be one of Cali's finest sitters. She demonstrated exceptional attentiveness to Cali's needs, going the extra mile to ensure Cali had the best experience.She maintained open communication through texts, addressing questions and concerns, and thoughtfully shared pictures and videos. Grateful for your care, Carmin.”
“We are repeat customers and there is no doubt I would rather leave my dogs with Lilliana than anyone else! We even travel about 30 minutes to leave our dogs with her - that’s how great she is! Our dogs come home tired and happy and we love it. We’ve referred a couple friends to her and they love her as well. Please don’t ever stop dog sitting, Lilliana!”
About: A Home Away From Home for Your Dog 🐾 Dogs have always been a huge part of our lives. In May 2026, we said goodbye to our beloved Chihuahua-mix rescue, Shredderz. The hole he left in our hearts is enormous. We aren’t ready for another lifelong dog just yet, but we also know that our love for dogs isn’t going anywhere. So we found a way to keep dogs in our lives while giving them something wonderful in return: a true home away from home. We love to travel, and we’ve learned firsthand how difficult it can be to travel with a dog. And when your dog is family, traditional boarding just doesn’t feel like an option. That’s actually what inspired us to create The Doghouse Inn, a dog-themed vacation rental we owned from 2022–2025. We didn’t just allow dogs. We designed the experience around them. They had their own room, a literal dog castle made of beds, and a dog park in the backyard. 🐶🏰 We learned something during those years: dogs deserve to feel like welcome guests, too. Now we’d love to offer that same feeling to your dog in our home. When your pup stays with us, they’re not being tucked away in a kennel or treated like an afterthought. They’ll be part of our home, our routine, and our day. We’ll give them attention, affection, playtime, cozy places to nap, and all the little comforts that help them feel secure while you’re away. And because we’ve loved and lost a dog ourselves, we understand something else very deeply: Leaving your dog with someone is an act of trust. We don’t take that trust lightly. We’re not trying to replace Shredderz. We’re simply opening a door that he helped us discover: sometimes loving dogs means loving the ones who need a safe place to stay, too. If you’re looking for a home away from home where your dog will be genuinely loved and cared for while you’re traveling, we’d be honored to welcome them. ❤️🐾 We both work from home, so your dog will have plenty of company throughout the day. Our schedules also give us flexibility, and when one of us has a commitment outside the home, the other stays behind. We love having dogs as part of our daily routine and are happy to include them in our work-from-home day. 🐾 We have a spacious 2,000-square-foot home on its own property with a completely fenced-in backyard and a screened-in pool. There are no other pets in our home, and we only board one family’s dogs at a time, so your dog gets our full attention without having to share the space with other boarding dogs. Our quiet, safe neighborhood has sidewalks for easy walks, and there’s a park about a mile away. Our fenced yard also gives dogs plenty of room to stretch their legs and run some serious zoomies. 🐾 We have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and truly enjoy having them in our home. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, loving environment where your dog can settle in and feel at home while you’re away.
“Christina was so great with Clover! She sent me pictures and/or videos each day of the week. She looked so happy to be there. I highly recommend and will definitely have Clover return.”
“Kaity was an amazing pet sitter for Kahlo, one of the paralyzed dogs in our rescue. She handled Kahlo's unique needs with great care and attention, making sure he was comfortable and well looked after. I especially appreciated the numerous photos and updates she sent, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear Kaity is experienced and compassionate, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out to Kaity again in the future!”
“Michelle is nothing short of fantastic-- she provided my pup with a happy, fun, and cozy retreat! Her patience is especially noticeable; I needed her on short notice with a young and spunky dog, and she rolled with it all seamlessly. We were lucky to find her on Rover!”
“I want to share a special thank you to Lisa. This past Spring, Lisa was able to take care of our pup Milo on short notice, when we had to travel to New Jersey twice for a family issue. She has made us feel as if we are part of her family. I knew that Milo was taken care of, so I could focus on my family. Milo loves her and her pups. She is the best!!”
