“Yiye and her family were so kind to our dog and made her feel welcome and comfortable. Yiye sent daily pictures and updates as well. I would highly recommend her !”
“Angela was a life saver, she agreed to take in my dog Tank for a couple of weeks on short notice. We did a meet and greet and Tank was cool and comfortable at her place. She sent pictures and let me know how he was doing. Taking him on walks and just keeping him busy. So, if you need a sitter, give her a call. (Probably best to get in touch with her sooner than later.) lol Thanks again, Angela.”
“Miho walked our pup every morning and evening. She sent pictures and updates daily. I know that our fur baby was in good hands while we were away! I would highly recommend Miho!”
“Simeon was great and knowledgeable about dogs. We are appreciative that he accepted our booking request last minute as our previous one failed through a day before. We had “meet and greet” with him and his pup a day before, which went well. We will definitely board our dog with him again. Thank you!”
“It’s never easy leaving your fur baby with someone new but, Maddy made Bella feel like family which made this transition so much easier. Maddy is a wonderful dog whisperer and a great fur babysitter. HIGHLY RECOMMEND thank you so much for a wonderful experience.”
“Shane was wonderful! Spoofy had such a good time and was well cared for. He was thorough with Spoofy’s care instructions and did everything to make him feel at home. I knew Spoofy was in good hands with him and will definitely recommend him in the future!”
“This is my first experience with using Rover, and I guess I started with the one at the top of the list. Stacy was more than what I was looking for. She continually kept sending me pictures of my dog and letting me know how he's doing. My dog Happy hesitated to leave because he had so much fun with Stacy's dogs and family. I would highly recommend her to anybody who has a dog that wants to have that tender, loving care. Congressman Bill Sarpalius.”
“Robin and Nick were absolutely amazing hosts! Robin sent us daily updates and adorable photos of our fur baby, Sage, which gave us so much peace of mind. This was our first extended trip—much longer than our usual one- or two-day getaways—so we were naturally a bit nervous about leaving Sage. But she looked relaxed and content throughout her weeklong stay, and when she returned home, she settled in immediately. That told us everything: she was clearly well cared for and comfortable. We’re so grateful to Robin and Nick for their kindness and attentiveness, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to them again in the future. Thank you both for treating Sage like family!”
“Tracey was amazing with watching our Timmer. She sent pictures everyday of him enjoying himself. He looked like he had a great time. Thank you again Tracey”
“Tanya and her family took great care of our dogs! They are super friendly and welcoming and have made their home into a safe, comfortable, and fun place for pets to stay. They were very communicative, sending pictures and updates throughout the day, and are very thoughtful about giving your pets all the love and care that they deserve while you are away.”
“Eliana is super nice and my little girl, Lulu loved being at her house. Eliana provided updates throughout Lulu’s stay. Definitely recommend Eliana as she took really good care of Lulu. Can’t wait for Lulu to go back in the future.”
About: I’ve had the privilege of caring for both dogs and cats throughout my entire life! This has given me experience with pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. My passion for animals extends beyond ownership, as I have also rescued and cared for both puppies and adult dogs, helping them adjust to new environments with patience, consistency, and love. I understand that every pet has unique routines, preferences, and emotional needs. Whether your companion is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or requires extra patience while adjusting to new surroundings, I take the time to build trust and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! Accidents and unexpected messes are simply part of caring for animals and I approach these situations with understanding rather than frustration. I am completely comfortable handling cleanup, administering care, and adapting to each pet’s individual needs with kindness and attention. My goal is to provide a calm, dependable, and enriching environment where your pet receives the same level of love, respect, and care that I give my own! I believe every animal deserves to feel secure, happy, and valued, and I strive to make each stay a positive experience for both pets and their owners. Weekdays: * Morning: Available * Midday: Available (flexible) * Evening: Available Weekends: * Fully available with notice! Overnights / Boarding: * Available depending on schedule (message for details) Response Time: * Usually within a few hours Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities at all times! I maintain a calm, structured environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed while you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, and any special instructions provided by owners to ensure consistency and reduce stress for your pet. I’m attentive during walks, feedings, and playtime, and I prioritize safe handling in all situations! I keep environments clean and organized, including prompt cleanup of accidents and maintaining sanitary food and water areas. Pets are always supervised during care and I avoid unsafe situations such as off leash exposure or unfamiliar animal interactions unless specifically approved by the owner. Clear communication is important to me! I provide updates and daily pictures so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and doing well 🐾
“Cassandra was a great sitter - reliable, communicative and clearly cared about my pet. I got regular updates and came home to a happy, well cared for dog. Would definitely book her again.”
“All I can say is I have found my PERFECT dog sitter. There was a sudden, heartbreaking death in my family. I was in a state of shock, needing to find care for our dogs while my husband and I travel to Oregon with our two kids within 48 hours. Luz was the third sitter I contacted and the first to write back. She responded quickly and was sympathetic to the situation. Her communication was thorough, letting me know she had another clients dog for a few more days and was willing to help. We messaged back and forth and I could tell her understanding of dogs was stronger than average. She spoke of prioritizing safety, boundaries, and was reassuring when I explained one of my dogs is pretty anxious and might need some space to feel safe if overwhelmed. I get nervous about my younger dog being in new spaces because she is so anxious. Luz updated me about how my dogs were settling in from the moment we dropped them off. I received multiple updates a day and a ton of adorable photos/videos. You cannot put a price tag on peace of mind. Overall, I want to include that Luz just made the entire process super easy. From the start she took control of the process and was answering questions before I could ask them. I find this important to add because of how sensitive of a circumstance this was. It was also very last minute. I didn't have time to do any meet and greet or what have you. I needed this to be taken care of and the security that I felt from Luz was priceless.”
“Such a huge blessing! Very caring, thoughtful and they went above and beyond to make sure our needy senior pet had excellent care. We are so grateful for the help offered.”
“The Holidays are tough, especially when you leave the island and have to find a sitter for your 4 legged companion. Our tradgey struck when our original Rover sitter told us she could no longer watch our dog. Being 5000+ miles away...right before Christmas...I panicked...cried... enraged...all the above emotions one shouldn't feel during the holidays. Abbi messaged me, I told her our situation and she took the reigns over to insure our family member is well taken cared of. I received pictures and videos of my babe almost daily. My family is completely indebted by her kindness and love. And Sarai is just as happy as I am that we're together again!! Thank you again! -Von”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life, and I can’t imagine a home without them. I’ve personally owned and cared for several dogs over the years (including both puppies and rescues) as well as a cat, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. In addition to my personal experience, I worked at a family-owned dog grooming salon as a dog bather. There, I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. My responsibilities included bathing, brushing, deshedding, dematting, and nail trimming/grinding. That experience helped me become confident handling dogs safely, reading body language, and making sure each pet felt as comfortable as possible. While I’m not a certified groomer or trainer, I’ve had a lot of hands-on experience and truly enjoy working with animals. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, overnight care, or boarding, I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to give them a safe, calm, and loving environment while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give each pet the attention they deserve. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their usual routine, providing plenty of love, playtime, exercise, fresh water, and meals. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Nicole was great for our drop in visits with Mowgli!

Thank you for taking good care of my kitty!”
“5/5 stars for Stacey! I had her drop in and watch my cat while I was off island. She sent me lots of pictures and updates about my cat. I was worried about leaving my cat at home because he is afraid of other people, but Stacey was able to befriend him and make him feel comfortable. Would recommend!”

“Steven was wonderful at taking care of our kitty while we were gone! We could tell from the photos he’d send that she was getting lots of attention and skritches and she just looked super happy. He was prompt and reliable and trustworthy and I would 1000% rebook :)”
“Tracy watched our cat Beans for a week while we were away. She was amazing at providing pictures and updates about our girl the whole week. She made it easy to communicate with her and was easily available if I had any concerns. She followed all of my instructions as to how to take care of her. I was so worried about going away and leaving my Beans, but she took such good care of her and eased my mind. We will book with Tracy again if we go away.”
“Lawrence is absolutely amazing! We’ve trusted him with our pets twice now, and he’ll continue to be our first choice whenever we need a sitter. Our babies adore him, and we always feel completely at ease knowing they’re in such caring, capable hands. He keeps us updated with plenty of photos and messages, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. We highly recommend Lawrence to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely wonderful pet sitter!”
“Tamah went above and beyond for our cats. One of our pets was put on emergency antibiotics days before our trip was scheduled. Tamah did an amazing job making sure she was given her medicine daily and sent us lots of updates. I would absolutely have her back! 10/10!”
“Jessica was fantastic with our two feline boys! They were so calm and content when we got home, and she left the house in perfect condition. Highly recommend her!”

“Arianna went above and beyond while taking care of our cat, Fifi. She was attentive, communicative, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We had accidentally left trash in the can before leaving, and that was completely our fault, yet she handled it without hesitation. That level of care and thoughtfulness is hard to find. Arianna genuinely cares about both the pets and the families she works with. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter.”
“Hannah was amazing! We reached out to her with incredibly short notice as our other sitter had to cancel due to an emergency. We were in a pinch and Hannah responded immediately and was willing to jump in and help! She was awesome with our puppy, Cooper and treated him like her own. I would highly recommend her!”
“McKenzie was able to help us out on very short notice due to our cat needing to be on antibiotics just two days before our trip out of state. She went above and beyond in making sure our cat was given her daily meds and had excellent communication with us the entire week. We are so appreciative of McKenzie!”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! From the moment we met, I knew my dog was in caring and capable hands. Angela provided updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind while I was taking care of errands for the day. It was clear my pup was not only well cared for but genuinely loved and treated like family. After picking Queen up from Angela’s place and heading home, my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. The attention to detail, reliability, and genuine compassion exceeded every expectation. It’s not easy to trust someone with a beloved pet, but I would absolutely book with Angela again without hesitation. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, communicative, and truly passionate about animals, I highly recommend her. She deserved every one of these five stars! Mahalo Angela and our Queen will be so looking forward to her August vacay with you! God Bless, ~Angie TM 🌺🤗”

“Jocelyn is wonderful. Our dogs are shy around new people, and can be difficult to manage. But they liked her right away and didn’t give her any trouble. She is also very reliable and punctual.”
“We’ve been so fortunate to find Iyanna on Rover! I booked routine walks for my two puppies, Moose and Olivia, who are a bit shy but Iyanna has been a lifesaver. She is incredibly accommodating, always ensuring that their walks fit perfectly into our schedule. It's clear she genuinely cares for the dogs and treats them like her own. What I appreciate the most is her attention to detail – she keeps me updated with messages and photos, which gives me peace of mind knowing my puppies are in good hands. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker. Thank you for being such a wonderful companion for my pups! 🐶🐶🐾🐾🌈 - Sam and Anna”

About: I’ve had the privilege of caring for both dogs and cats throughout my entire life! This has given me experience with pets of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. My passion for animals extends beyond ownership, as I have also rescued and cared for both puppies and adult dogs, helping them adjust to new environments with patience, consistency, and love. I understand that every pet has unique routines, preferences, and emotional needs. Whether your companion is energetic and playful, shy and reserved, or requires extra patience while adjusting to new surroundings, I take the time to build trust and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care! Accidents and unexpected messes are simply part of caring for animals and I approach these situations with understanding rather than frustration. I am completely comfortable handling cleanup, administering care, and adapting to each pet’s individual needs with kindness and attention. My goal is to provide a calm, dependable, and enriching environment where your pet receives the same level of love, respect, and care that I give my own! I believe every animal deserves to feel secure, happy, and valued, and I strive to make each stay a positive experience for both pets and their owners. Weekdays: * Morning: Available * Midday: Available (flexible) * Evening: Available Weekends: * Fully available with notice! Overnights / Boarding: * Available depending on schedule (message for details) Response Time: * Usually within a few hours Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities at all times! I maintain a calm, structured environment where pets can feel secure and relaxed while you’re away. I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, and any special instructions provided by owners to ensure consistency and reduce stress for your pet. I’m attentive during walks, feedings, and playtime, and I prioritize safe handling in all situations! I keep environments clean and organized, including prompt cleanup of accidents and maintaining sanitary food and water areas. Pets are always supervised during care and I avoid unsafe situations such as off leash exposure or unfamiliar animal interactions unless specifically approved by the owner. Clear communication is important to me! I provide updates and daily pictures so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and doing well 🐾
“All I can say is I have found my PERFECT dog sitter. There was a sudden, heartbreaking death in my family. I was in a state of shock, needing to find care for our dogs while my husband and I travel to Oregon with our two kids within 48 hours. Luz was the third sitter I contacted and the first to write back. She responded quickly and was sympathetic to the situation. Her communication was thorough, letting me know she had another clients dog for a few more days and was willing to help. We messaged back and forth and I could tell her understanding of dogs was stronger than average. She spoke of prioritizing safety, boundaries, and was reassuring when I explained one of my dogs is pretty anxious and might need some space to feel safe if overwhelmed. I get nervous about my younger dog being in new spaces because she is so anxious. Luz updated me about how my dogs were settling in from the moment we dropped them off. I received multiple updates a day and a ton of adorable photos/videos. You cannot put a price tag on peace of mind. Overall, I want to include that Luz just made the entire process super easy. From the start she took control of the process and was answering questions before I could ask them. I find this important to add because of how sensitive of a circumstance this was. It was also very last minute. I didn't have time to do any meet and greet or what have you. I needed this to be taken care of and the security that I felt from Luz was priceless.”
“Such a huge blessing! Very caring, thoughtful and they went above and beyond to make sure our needy senior pet had excellent care. We are so grateful for the help offered.”
“The Holidays are tough, especially when you leave the island and have to find a sitter for your 4 legged companion. Our tradgey struck when our original Rover sitter told us she could no longer watch our dog. Being 5000+ miles away...right before Christmas...I panicked...cried... enraged...all the above emotions one shouldn't feel during the holidays. Abbi messaged me, I told her our situation and she took the reigns over to insure our family member is well taken cared of. I received pictures and videos of my babe almost daily. My family is completely indebted by her kindness and love. And Sarai is just as happy as I am that we're together again!! Thank you again! -Von”
About: Animals have always been a part of my life, and I can’t imagine a home without them. I’ve personally owned and cared for several dogs over the years (including both puppies and rescues) as well as a cat, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. In addition to my personal experience, I worked at a family-owned dog grooming salon as a dog bather. There, I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. My responsibilities included bathing, brushing, deshedding, dematting, and nail trimming/grinding. That experience helped me become confident handling dogs safely, reading body language, and making sure each pet felt as comfortable as possible. While I’m not a certified groomer or trainer, I’ve had a lot of hands-on experience and truly enjoy working with animals. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, overnight care, or boarding, I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to give them a safe, calm, and loving environment while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give each pet the attention they deserve. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following their usual routine, providing plenty of love, playtime, exercise, fresh water, and meals. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.
“I had such an easy experience with Kayla! She’s responsive and very friendly :) both her dogs are lovely. I had no worry at all leaving my Miso with her. My pup had such a fun time and was cared for completely. I highly recommend Kayla!!”
“Tanya was so great! I really appreciated that Tanya wasn't to afraid to ask questions or tell us if something went wrong with our dogs stay. Plus she sent videos and photos of our dog every day. Highly recommend! We will have our dog stay with Tanya again.”
“Kaitlyn was great. She took in Bree with just a few days notice and Bree enjoyed herself. Kaitlyn is energetic and took Bree on daily walks (long) and that was important to me. As a pit-mix they need to be walked so they can sniff everything. Kaitlyn followed my lead on using the snacks in the puzzle toys to break up the boredom that Pit's can get if not stimulated. She was a great dog-sitter.”
“Makayla was absolutely awesome. Took our two cats last minute and took great care of them, gave them treats and the care they needed. Went above and beyond to make sure our family and our cats got what they needed, would do it again!”
“Kaia stay with Ciara and her dog, Chanel was great! The dogs played really well and Ciara was always providing updates and pictures. Kaia came home very tired and happy.”
“Jocelyn was fantastic! She was able to accommodate our Penny for a last second outing. She sent several pics and communicated perfectly. I could tell when we picked Penny up that she had a blast with Jocelyn and her two pups. Next time we are visiting the area we would absolutely use Jocelyn.”
“A great sitter! Very willing to accommodate and I had zero worries about my dog while we were away. She gave consistent updates as well, which I really appreciated. For a timid dog, he adjusted to boarding with her better than I expected. I’d certainly look for her name again for my next booking. :)”
“Scott was awesome with my dog Duke. He responded promptly, and sent pictures almost every day. Duke was a rescue and still has a few behavior quirks, but Scott was great with him, very calm and patient. We were out of town for 2 weeks and it was such a relief to know Duke was in good hands. His dog Izzy is super cute too! I definitely recommend him! Thank you for taking such great care of Duke!”
