“Marley was amazing with our little sweet Rosie. She was very gentle with the needs of her separation anxiety. Marley took care of all her needs and was very patient and gentle with Rosie’s nervousness. Would definitely use Marley again and highly recommend her!”

“Linda was a terrific nanny for Oscar! She responded very quickly to my request, had a prompt and positive meet and greet… and was kind and caring during Oscar’s stay. We received numerous pictures of his “making himself at home” and a happy reunion after 12 days. Highly recommended!”

“Excellent stay and care for Sweetie 💕 Beth was amazing and very friendly, responsive and took great care of my pup. Additional perk, Sweetie found a new BFF. 100 % recommend”

“Frances took such great care of my fur babies! I felt 100% confident leaving them with her. They were free to have full reign of the home as if they lived there. They also had a nice big back yard to explore if they wanted. She gave them extra perks like watermelon on a hot day (we talked in advance about treats) and a cooling mat to lie on. Don’t look any further! You’ve found a gem 💎”


“Kathy and Roy are amazing. They took great care of Satchel while I was away. They sent several pictures every day along with a write up on what he did during the day. I highly recommend them for your pet care.”

“If I could give Morgan 10 stars, I would. We had holiday travel that had us away for 10 days. We found Morgan as an alternative to your standard pet resort. We knew we wanted the one on one experience for our yellow lab. Morgan provided that and then some. She goes above and beyond to make sure all the animals in her care feel like they’re at home. With daily photos and updates, we felt like we were right there in the action! This was our first visit with Morgan but most certainly won’t be our last!”

“Jewel was so kind and detailed taking all the info I had for Luna since she is Diabetic and on special diet. Has a fenced in yard and walks the dogs. She brought out her two precious little princesses to meet Luna and they were so adorable. Her detailed text with pics of Luna’s daily events made my day. Thank you so much Jewel. I can see Luna was super relaxed since picking her up and her usual cry whining just didn't happen. It usually takes her three days to get chill again when I leave her. Thank you and your pups for her great stay away from home. 💖 You were the perfect pick for Luna.”


“Ray and his son took great care of our pups. This was their first time away from home. I got pictures of my boys everyday along with a little message letting me know they were doing well. I can’t thank him enough for his caring nature and love he has for dogs.”

“Cherolyn is wonderful with Simba- she is so happy to spend time with him and I know he gets so much love and attention from the updates she provides. He also comes home tired which is a great sign that he has lots of playtime when he is there. He also squeals with delight and excitement during the car ride when he realizes he is going there. I couldn’t ask for more in a sitter!”


“Jennifer was absolutely amazing with our 3 dogs while we were on vacation. It was the first time we had ever left them behind, so naturally we were nervous. I didn’t want to overwhelm her by constantly checking in, but she reached out every day with updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we picked them up, the dogs were happy, clean, and clearly well cared for. We are so grateful and would absolutely trust Jennifer with our dogs again!”

“Merve was absolutely wonderful with our dog — hands down the best experience we’ve had with a sitter. She was always prompt with her communications, took the time to understand all the unique things our dog needs for care, and was super warm and caring for our dog. Plus, she consistently proactively provided picture and video updates so we knew all was good. Would highly recommend Merve!”


“Cindy and Steve were the best hosts we could have asked for our pup. The yard is perfect with lots of room to run around, and we got timely updates on Ruger's status including photos and videos. I would definitely go back to them in future.”

“So thankful for Morgan taking great care of my furbaby. Doug has high anxiety and takes awhile to get used to strangers so I was relieved to know he had a good time at Morgan’s place!”

“We loved having Marcela keep our fur baby! She was very responsive and kept us updated frequently with cute pics and videos of him the whole time. We felt comfortable and safe having him in her care and are so thankful for how accommodating she was with our schedule. We will definitely be booking with her again for all our future visits home! We can tell our fur baby misses her and the new friends he made while in her care!”

“Alyssa was a great and quick communicator. She helped with my dog's medications, which were a few of them. It sounded like Klyo had a great time and had a chance to interact with other dogs for a change. Will definitely use again when needed.”

“The dogs had a great weekend with Alisha. They were happy and well taken care of. She sent lots of pictures and kept in touch. I know that Holly and Chip would enjoy staying with her again.”

“Viktoryia was flexible and accommodating with our tight travel schedule and kept us updated with plenty of photos while we were away. Finn looked happy and well cared for. Thank you!”

“Corinne was so kind and loving with my dogs! She treated them with such care . I am so thankful for her. She sent updates with pictures which made me feel so at ease, knowing they were in excellent care with her. My dogs were happy there and so well taken care of! Would 1000% ask her to watch my dogs again. Thank you!!!”

“Nathalie was so great! Our pup had a wonderful time and Nathalie was giving us updates and pictures that really made us feel comfortable knowing our little one was happy and having such a great time! Will call Nathalie anytime we need a sitter and would highly recommend!”

About: Cats have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently own four cats and have experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and temperaments. Friends, family, and clients often call me a "cat whisperer" because I have a special ability to connect with shy, fearful, and independent cats, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every cat is unique and respect their individual needs, routines, and boundaries. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers a quieter approach, I provide patient, compassionate care tailored to their personality. I have experience with feeding, litter box maintenance, administering basic medications, playtime, companionship, and monitoring for signs of stress or illness. I genuinely love animals and treat every cat as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your feline family member feels secure, happy, and well cared for while you're away. 🐾❤️
“Tracy did a fantastic job with our cat, Echo. She was prompt and caring. The photos and videos she sent showed us how happy he was when she was there. We highly recommend her and we will definitely use her again.”

“Angela W. Is wonderful! I’ve used her services 3 times now and she has taken excellent care of my cats and gave me peace of mind while traveling. I will continue to ask her to help when needed. Great job!”

“Very pleased with the care my cat received. Brandon did everything we agreed to in terms of care and was responsive to all my text messages. He sat on the floor to be on my cats level and stayed for a full 30 minutes each time. He took cute pics of my chonky boy and left my home exactly as he found it. Would use again and recommend to others.”

“Rebecca is amazing there isn't enough gold stars here for her. Excellent at communicating daily, understands pet needs, she followed our instructions and even did extra things we didn't even ask her to do. We can not thank you enough we were able to enjoy our time away without worrying!!!!”

“This was our first time leaving our 3 cats with a pet sitter. Christina was absolutely amazing!! She came to meet our kitties before we left to ensure that they were familiar with her, and we could show her around. While we were gone, she loved on our cats and sent daily reports with details on how each was doing. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled while we were away. I would highly recommend Christina as your next pet sitter, and we will definitely use her again!”

“Tricia you are amazing and P and Rizzy appreciated all you did to make them feel happy and safe while we were away. They are telling us to take another vacation soon so you can come visit them each day because they miss you!😹🐈😹🐈⬛. THANK YOU!”

“Christine was awesome and we can't say enough good things about her. We received daily pictures and updates during our time away and she was extremely helpful with our older, 17-year-old, cat, as well as with our two 9-month-old kittens. Christine was very responsive to our texts, and we will continue to book her as our caretaker when we are away.”

Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around visits, ensuring, consistent, reliable care, timely walks, feedings, and regular updates. I follow each pets routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and playtime. I maintain a clean, safe environment and provide regular updates for peace of mind.
“I had to go down to Carson City last minute and couldn’t find a sitter. Kari was incredibly sweet and I’m thankful she could take my pup at last minute request. She took him to the nearby grass area and sent pictures and videos of him playing. He seemed to be having a great time and was tired when we picked him up to take him home. She had plenty of toys for him to rummage through, as well. I highly reccomend Kari to anyone.”

“Corrina does a wonderful job with Teddy! He is high energy and has separation anxiety but she is able to settle him down and has him sitting on her lap and calm upon return. She is a very nice person and has a comfortable way. Her pet Romey is a very calm loving dog who takes Teddy in stride. We highly recommend Corinna as a sitter in her home.”
“I cannot say enough about my experience with Beth and her husband and their home, little dog and cats. I felt so at ease around their kindness. The best part is that my dog was more vibrant and playful after two days with them. They were keen to follow instructions and just be a loving presence for Zushi. That’s what we needed most! I will be booking with them again. And highly recommend them.”

About: Hi! I’m Marianna, a lifelong animal lover offering drop-in visits, boarding, and overnight stays for both dogs and cats. Animals are truly part of my family. I share my home with my amazing Golden Lab, Phoebe, who is incredibly well-behaved, gentle, and adventurous — she goes paddle boarding, loves the water, and is even a diver! Phoebe is a Theraphy dog . She is a calm, confident, and friendly role model for other dogs. We also have two wonderful cats: Pharaoh (Abyssinian) and Phoenix (Scottish Fold). They are very social, affectionate, and used to being around dogs, so our home is a peaceful, happy, and interactive environment for all pets. I’m certified in Pet First Aid & CPR for both cats and dogs, so your pet’s safety is always a top priority. In addition to loving care, I also offer support with behavioral training and confidence building. I’ve personally trained my own 2.5-year-old pup to a very high level of obedience, and I enjoy helping other dogs feel calm, safe, and well-mannered. Our home features a fenced yard, a swimming pool (with supervision), and plenty of space to play, rest, and relax in a loving, low-stress environment. Whether your pet loves to cuddle, play, swim, or simply nap in the sun, they will feel right at home here. I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, kindness, and respect. I would be honored to care for your furry family while you’re away 🐶🐱💛 Ps . For safety, any signs of prey drive toward cats (staring, lunging, chasing) will result in immediate separation or early pick-up. That’s why Meet and Greet is a MUST for me. I keep a flexible schedule so your pet receives calm, unhurried attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and drop-ins on both weekdays and weekends, and I intentionally limit how many pets I take (1-2 great pets at a time ONLY) to ensure each one feels safe, relaxed, and truly cared for. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment in my home with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor play. Dogs are always monitored, kept on routine, and can be crated if needed. I follow owner instructions closely, prioritize cleanliness, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and cared for like family.
“This was my first time booking with Stephanie. I am visiting from out of town. She kept my 2 Cavaliers for the day and all went very well. She sent me pics of my babies throughout the day. They got outside time in the big fenced back yard and they were happy and healthy when I picked them up. I was very satisfied and will book again.”


“Carrie and her husband Mike did a great job taking care of Peaches for an afternoon while we were on vacation in the area. She got plenty of attention and exercise too. They have no pets of their own at present so are a great choice if you want your fur-baby to have 1:1 attention.”

I felt so good knowing he had met Xander and I knew immediately our pup was in good hands. Brandon is kind and Xander loved him immediately. We will absolutely ask Brandon to come again.”

“Haley was absolutely wonderful! She was punctual, friendly, trustworthy, and kind to my dog. She always took him for the full amount of walk time and was great about letting me know if he went to the bathroom. I would highly recommend her!”

“Thank you so much for walking Sammi! Sharon was responsible, timely and nice to my dog! She even came by the night before so that she would be able to find our camping site. Thank you again!”

“We were visiting family in Sarasota and last minute needed a dog walker for the day. Christine was available the night before and walked our dog twice for us while we were gone all day. She sent us photos of both walks which was great. Highly recommend and will use her again if we are back in Sarasota with our dog!”

“Kathy and Roy are amazing. They took great care of Satchel while I was away. They sent several pictures every day along with a write up on what he did during the day. I highly recommend them for your pet care.”

“If I could give Morgan 10 stars, I would. We had holiday travel that had us away for 10 days. We found Morgan as an alternative to your standard pet resort. We knew we wanted the one on one experience for our yellow lab. Morgan provided that and then some. She goes above and beyond to make sure all the animals in her care feel like they’re at home. With daily photos and updates, we felt like we were right there in the action! This was our first visit with Morgan but most certainly won’t be our last!”


“Ray and his son took great care of our pups. This was their first time away from home. I got pictures of my boys everyday along with a little message letting me know they were doing well. I can’t thank him enough for his caring nature and love he has for dogs.”


“Jennifer was absolutely amazing with our 3 dogs while we were on vacation. It was the first time we had ever left them behind, so naturally we were nervous. I didn’t want to overwhelm her by constantly checking in, but she reached out every day with updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. When we picked them up, the dogs were happy, clean, and clearly well cared for. We are so grateful and would absolutely trust Jennifer with our dogs again!”


“Cindy and Steve were the best hosts we could have asked for our pup. The yard is perfect with lots of room to run around, and we got timely updates on Ruger's status including photos and videos. I would definitely go back to them in future.”

“So thankful for Morgan taking great care of my furbaby. Doug has high anxiety and takes awhile to get used to strangers so I was relieved to know he had a good time at Morgan’s place!”

“We loved having Marcela keep our fur baby! She was very responsive and kept us updated frequently with cute pics and videos of him the whole time. We felt comfortable and safe having him in her care and are so thankful for how accommodating she was with our schedule. We will definitely be booking with her again for all our future visits home! We can tell our fur baby misses her and the new friends he made while in her care!”

“Alyssa was a great and quick communicator. She helped with my dog's medications, which were a few of them. It sounded like Klyo had a great time and had a chance to interact with other dogs for a change. Will definitely use again when needed.”

“The dogs had a great weekend with Alisha. They were happy and well taken care of. She sent lots of pictures and kept in touch. I know that Holly and Chip would enjoy staying with her again.”


“Carol was wonderful! Our 6 month old GSD is full of energy and can be a lot for some people, but they handled her just fine. When we picked her up she was so content and happy, and was wore out from all of the exciting walks she was able to go on while staying with Ms. Carol.”


“Suzanne is wonderful. She sends pictures and updates. She asks questions and gets to know your pet and his/her habits in advance. We will definitely use her to watch Dobby again!”
“Stephany did a phenomenal job keeping our French Bulldog. She communicated throughout the day with pictures! She genuinely loves what she does. Highly recommend her. She has heart of gold.”


“Such nice people and a beautiful home and neighborhood! Marybeth even texted me during our dinner to assure me our pup was happy, which I so appreciated. Very convenient to our hotel. ”
“Brittany and her family were great! Luna loved being there as she got to play with the boys and Mia. She had lots of walks and plenty of time playing fetch, her favorite game. We know this because Brittany kept us up to date with lots of photos and videos as well as messages on how it was going. We have found our dog sitter for life! Thanks you Brittany!”

“Our dog Sammy loved his stay with Linda and her family. They sent us photos and videos updates daily, making us feel so relieved and happy. Their dog Jachik is also so friendly and loving. We would love to work with Linda again in the future! ❤️”


“I am a first time Rover user and booked Kelly for our 11 year old hound mix, Bruno. She was a great communicator and kept me updated on how he was doing with texts and pictures. He did great and I am happy to use Kelly for our future trips.”

“I don’t trust many people with my girl but Monica did AMAZING with her! She kept me consistently updated on Tinkies day and how she was doing, eating, potty breaks, etc. We will definitely rebook in the future :)”

“Lori always takes such great care of our pups. She is great at communicating and sending pictures. She definitely treats them like her own. We highly recommend her and will continue using her for dog sitting!”
