She was absolutely lovely. My baby seemed very happy and comfortable with her, even though it was my first time leaving him. She kept me updated with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would definitely book with her again if I ever need a pet sitter. I won’t look anywhere else. Thank you so much!

Baily did an outstanding job taking care of our little Greta (6 years old pug/boston terrier mix rescue). She kept us updated on Greta's stay with her and it was obvious from the updates and accompanying photos that Greta was feeling right at home and being showered with affection by Baily.

Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!

Lorraine was amazing with my pup-achinos. I have two dogs, one is a surrender and one is a rescue. After having some bad experiences with past sitters and boarding, I was starting to settle for having the Vet Kennel them while I was away. I love my dogs and sometimes I want people to love them the way I do, and she DEFINATLEY does! Lorraine is a natural care giver and has a great calm demeanor. They took to her right away, even my rescue who is very shy and is afraid of the washing machine. Lorraine is very attentive to both of them and their separate needs, sent pictures to me the whole time I was away and I never had to ask. They always look happy and comfortable, able to hang out on her back deck which they LOVE. Outside time is their favorite!! She did walks with them, too! I felt so comfortable to have them with her, she is very responsible, flexible, and responsive! So grateful to have met her.

Shirley is the BEST. She cared for our kitten with multiple congenital issues (cleft palate & twisted back legs) and accommodated her litterbox & play area to fit her mobility needs, along with tube feeding her by hand. I can tell she truly cares for animals and looks out for both pets and owners. She went above & beyond in consulting her veterinary knowledge from working in a specialty clinic to make it easier for us as owners to care for our Callie & plan for all her needs in the future. I got so many updates & pics/videos of Callie over the weekend, & we couldn't stop talking about how grateful we were she was spending the night with Shirley. We send love & thanks!!!

Tanqueray was phenomenal with my sweet but anxious older little guy. She took his unique needs into consideration as she thoughtfully planned his stay. He was comfortable and happy, which I knew because he doesn’t usually go up to sitters to say bye when I pick him up. But he did this with her. He made new doggy friends on his walks (which he’s also not always up to) and he and Sir, a sweet little guy, got along wonderfully. I’m grateful for Tanqueray and the loving care she took of my pup.

Obi seemed to really enjoy his stay with Brian! Obi is sensitive, so he will get sick from separation anxiety after I pick him up from a stay or he will be very clingy. He’s been completely normal since I’ve picked him up and he is doing perfectly fine! Brian provided me updates daily that eased my own separation anxiety. Thank you, Brian!

Doug and Debbie were incredible hosts for our dog, Stella, while our family was away for a week. Stella can be slow to warm up to new people, but thanks to their gentle care, she quickly felt at ease. We had a few unexpected flight cancellations, which required Stella to stay an extra day, and Doug and Debbie happily accommodated her without any issues. We're so grateful that Stella had a safe, loving place to stay, and she especially loved their beautiful backyard patio. Will definitely be re-booking for any other family vacation!

About: I have been caring for cats for about 2 years and have gained experience providing them with the love, attention, and care they need. My family has trusted me to look after their cats while they were away, including checking in on them, feeding them, cleaning their spaces, and making sure they had plenty of playtime and affection. I understand that every cat has their own personality and needs, whether they are playful, shy, or simply enjoy relaxing in their own space. I always take the time to make cats feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I treat every cat as if they were my own by giving them patience, attention, and lots of love !

Yat (Agnes) did a fantastic job looking after my senior cat while I was away. We met prior to the sitting visits. She made sure she had a clear understanding of everything she would need to do for my cat. Followed instructions perfectly, was consistently on time, and sent me plenty of pictures each time she visited. When we returned my cat was calm and relaxed. I will definitely book with her again.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life, including a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Pitbull mix, so I’m very comfortable with both large and high-energy breeds. I also have experiences with extended stay puppy sitting where I managed feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and creating a calm, structured environment. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attentiveness are, especially with puppies. I’m currently preparing to welcome a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very intentional about creating safe, positive experiences for dogs. I work Monday through Friday but my partner is currently home all day, so someone will always be there to care for your dog! We are open to boarding any night. Walks I am primarily available after work or sometimes the morning before. My partner is currently available most anytime! We are both reliable and detail oriented. We are prepping to bring in our very own golden retriever puppy, so will treat your dog as if they are our own! As mentioned above I work Mon-Friday roughy 8-4. My partner is currently home throughout the day so someone will always be there to care for your dog. We are open to boarding almost any day especially weekends where we are both home. Walks and drop ins work best for me before work hours or after but my partner has open availability so between us we can accommodate to you! Feel free to ask if you have any specific availability questions! :) Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and am very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and safety during walks and care. I always keep dogs securely leashed on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your dog, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to providing a safe and positive experience. I’m also happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always feel confident and connected while your dog is in my care.

About: Cats have always been a part of my life, and I’ve cared for them from kittenhood through their senior years. Living with cats has taught me how to understand their unique personalities, respect their boundaries, and earn their trust. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they need while maintaining their normal routine. I genuinely enjoy spending time with cats and will treat your furry family member with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every dog has a different personality, comfort level, and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved while their owners are away. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I adapt to their needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and companionship. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, communicative, and genuinely enjoy being around dogs. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, walks, routines, administering basic medications if needed, and providing updates/photos so you feel at ease while away. My goal is to create a warm, low-stress environment where your dog feels comfortable, cared for, and happy — not just watched. It would truly be an honor to care for your dog and give them the same love and attention every pet deserves. Daily and evening care including walks, feedings, playmate, bath time and bed time with any other activities including the dog park when availabe based on weathe. Pets are free to roam while I am home and crated when I need to run errands. They are treated like the rest of the family.

Dayana was a great dogsitter to our puppy Honey. She sent pictures and videos throughout the day of Honey having fun and being taken on walks, and she was very nice and communicative. I will definitely be reaching back out for more dog sitting with Dayana!

Also, she was willing and patient to work with my dog even though she is still a puppy. I truly felt relieved to know she was in Michelle's hands! I will definitely be using her services again.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. My love for animals comes from raising my own dogs, especially my sweet girl, Roxi, whom I was fortunate to have from the time she was a puppy until she crossed the Rainbow Bridge in February 2026 at 15 years old. Caring for her through every stage of life gave me firsthand experience with senior dog care, medication schedules, mobility assistance, and the extra patience, compassion, and love that aging pets deserve. I'm comfortable maintaining feeding routines, administering oral medications, providing potty breaks, and recognizing when a dog's behavior or health seems out of the ordinary. I understand that every dog has a different personality, energy level, and comfort needs, and I adapt my care to make them feel safe, relaxed, and loved. For puppies, I'm happy to reinforce the training and routines you're already working on, including crate training, potty schedules, basic commands, and positive reinforcement. I know consistency is important, and I'll follow your instructions to help keep your puppy on track. You'll also receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, comfortable, and in caring hands. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I work a hybrid full-time position, which allows me flexibility throughout the week. I carefully manage my calendar and only accept bookings that I know I can fully commit to, ensuring every pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it's morning walks, evening visits, overnight stays, or weekend care, I plan my schedule around each pet's needs. I believe reliability and consistency are just as important as love and affection, so I make it a priority to maintain your pet's normal routine as closely as possible.

Amie and her family were great! They were able to accommodate our last-minute request, which was so awesome, and we realize it wasn't a given. They were warm and inviting. Satchel clearly felt comfortable right away as he tried to get into their home. Their dog was super sweet and ADORABLE and got along well with our dog. We got cute photos throughout the day with updates. Satchel was pooped when we picked him up and looked like a happy dog. Oh, and their kiddo was super sweet and asked for Satchel to come back. That was super special!

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I have about 8 years of experience caring for them. Growing up with my own dogs has taught me how to understand their personalities, routines, and the importance of providing them with patience, love, and attention. Over the years, I have also helped care for my family’s dogs when they needed someone they could trust while they were away. I have experience with feeding, walks, playtime, baths, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I understand that every dog is different and has their own needs, whether they love being active, playing, or simply relaxing with someone they trust. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treat every dog with the same care, kindness, and affection I would give my own ! I currently work a part-time job, but I am still able to provide reliable and loving care for your pets. I am happy to work around my schedule to make sure your furry friend receives the attention, walks, playtime, and care they need. I will always communicate my availability clearly and do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my priority, and I want to make sure they feel happy and cared for ! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether caring for them in my home or visiting clients’ homes, I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets feel safe, happy, and cared for!

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life, including a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Pitbull mix, so I’m very comfortable with both large and high-energy breeds. I also have experiences with extended stay puppy sitting where I managed feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and creating a calm, structured environment. I understand how important consistency, patience, and attentiveness are, especially with puppies. I’m currently preparing to welcome a Golden Retriever puppy of my own, so I’m very intentional about creating safe, positive experiences for dogs. I work Monday through Friday but my partner is currently home all day, so someone will always be there to care for your dog! We are open to boarding any night. Walks I am primarily available after work or sometimes the morning before. My partner is currently available most anytime! We are both reliable and detail oriented. We are prepping to bring in our very own golden retriever puppy, so will treat your dog as if they are our own! As mentioned above I work Mon-Friday roughy 8-4. My partner is currently home throughout the day so someone will always be there to care for your dog. We are open to boarding almost any day especially weekends where we are both home. Walks and drop ins work best for me before work hours or after but my partner has open availability so between us we can accommodate to you! Feel free to ask if you have any specific availability questions! :) Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I live in a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and am very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and safety during walks and care. I always keep dogs securely leashed on walks, avoid unsafe situations, and closely monitor their behavior and well-being. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your dog, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, respectful of your home, and committed to providing a safe and positive experience. I’m also happy to send regular photo and video updates so you always feel confident and connected while your dog is in my care.

I’m so thankful for My’Anna! She is reliable, kind, and clearly loves caring for animals. She has helped me immensely with being able to walk my pup while I’m at work and has able to navigate challenges with her leash reactivity. She always makes sure to update me if there’s any issues or if everything went perfect. She goes above and beyond whether it be dealing with my neighbors or my building to ensuring my pup is getting a good walk and has water when they come back. It gives me such peace of mind knowing my pup is in such caring hands. I highly recommend My’Anna to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely passionate about dogs.

About: I have had pets from dogs, cats, fish, birds, and small rodents and loved them all. I am open minded about other caged animals besides dogs but would prefer no cats as my husky dog has a high prey drive. I am a big animal lover and would love to provide a loving temporary home for your pets. I am a stay at home mom who is available for all day care. I already take care of my own pets and it fits perfectly into my life. I have a fenced yard and a husky dog who will make great company. I am also willing to travel to your home if it makes you feel more comfortable.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, they’ve always held a special place in my heart. From dogs and cats to horses and more, I love getting to know each animal’s unique personality. Whether your pet loves to play, cuddle, explore, or simply enjoys calm company, I’ll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own fur babies! As a licensed esthetician, I create my own schedule & have the flexibility to work around your pet’s routine, making scheduling stress free for both of us. You can count on me to be dependable, respectful of your home, and to keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving, capable hands. Pet care has always been a natural part of my day to day routine because I’ve grown up around animals & have cared for pets for majority of my life. I work part time as an esthetician, meaning I can create my own schedule, which gives me flexibility throughout the week for walks, visits, & overnight stays! The pet’s safety, comfort, & routine would be my highest priorities. I like to take the time to learn each pet’s personality, feeding schedule, medications, favorite activities, etc so they feel secure and cared for. I have experience being around cats and dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand that every animal has different comfort zones and boundaries. Whether your pet is shy, playful, independent, or needs extra patience, I always respect their pace. I’ll l keep your home clean, follow your instructions carefully, & provide regular photo and video updates so you always know how your furry family members are doing.🐾

About: Hi! We’re a husband-and-wife team who are passionate about providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for every dog we care for. As lifelong dog lovers, we have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and we understand that every pup deserves personalized attention and plenty of affection. Our own furry daughter is a huge part of our family, and we love spending our days taking walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch in our yard, and making sure she lives her happiest life. We’d love to provide that same level of care and love to your dog while you’re away. One of the biggest advantages we offer is that we both work from home full-time. That means your pup will rarely be left alone and will receive constant supervision, companionship, regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles throughout the day. We know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, so we’ll treat them like one of our own. We’ll follow your pet’s routine, respect any special instructions, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing in the yard, or simply relaxing on the couch, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and right at home. We work from home permanently therefore have plenty of time to tend to your dogs needs. In addition, we have a fur baby of our own and are accustomed to taking on daily routine focused on pet care. Our home is designed to help dogs feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed during their stay. We have a spacious yard for supervised play and exercise, as well as extra bedrooms where dogs can enjoy a quiet space if they need to unwind. We also have crates in a variety of sizes available for dogs who are crate-trained or whose owners prefer they sleep or rest in one. We understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. That’s why we tailor our care to each individual pup—whether they love to play all day, enjoy long walks, prefer lots of cuddles, or need a calm, low-stress environment. Our goal is to make your dog feel as comfortable with us as they do at home. Between the two of us, we have extensive experience caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, ages, and energy levels. From playful puppies to gentle seniors, as well as shy or anxious dogs, we take the time to earn their trust and provide the patient, loving care they deserve.

About: UPDATE JULY 2024, PLEASE READ: If you see that my reply time is incredibly slow, it's because my account was inactive for a while due to my dad being hospitalized. I had to help care for him for a long period of time and I was unable to reply to any messages on Rover. My dad is okay now and I am available for walks and sitting again. I was a dog groomer for almost 2 years. I'm well-trained in animal safety. I care deeply about all animals, so I'll form a bond with your animals. I'm currently unemployed, so I'll have loads of time to provide love for your animals of any kind! Just let me know what you need/what you're looking for! I understand the basics of taking care of dogs, cats and other animals just like most pet sitters. But I also provide what some sitters don't: love! I'm very sweet and I can give your animals great love and care. Plus, I'll provide some pretty amazing photos of them. If anything out of the ordinary does happen, I will do my best to help and I will contact you immediately.

Gabriela and Richard were so kind and sweet with my toy poodle! They even took her on little adventures to get doggie ice cream and nice walks around the neighborhood, aside from plenty of outside time in their own fenced-in backyard! Gabriela was super great about texting updates and super cute pics of my girl! And they even got her to eat a good bit while I was away even though she usually tries to go on a hunger strike in my absence. Gabriela met us for like 15 mins at the local park before boarding and got to know my dog and garner some info from me, which I really appreciated and not a lot of boarders do that! My girl was very happy when I picked her up and I would absolutely rebook Gabriela and Richard! Highly recommend!

The number one destination for Aegon when we travel without him is Katherine and her crew. He’s practically part of the family and I hope we’ll have the pleasure of being repeat customers for many years to come.

Lorraine was amazing with my pup-achinos. I have two dogs, one is a surrender and one is a rescue. After having some bad experiences with past sitters and boarding, I was starting to settle for having the Vet Kennel them while I was away. I love my dogs and sometimes I want people to love them the way I do, and she DEFINATLEY does! Lorraine is a natural care giver and has a great calm demeanor. They took to her right away, even my rescue who is very shy and is afraid of the washing machine. Lorraine is very attentive to both of them and their separate needs, sent pictures to me the whole time I was away and I never had to ask. They always look happy and comfortable, able to hang out on her back deck which they LOVE. Outside time is their favorite!! She did walks with them, too! I felt so comfortable to have them with her, she is very responsible, flexible, and responsive! So grateful to have met her.

My pup Cannoli was immediately comfortable with Angel and didn't look back when I left (the little traitor...). Angel updated me throughout and made sure he had all the attention he needs (which is a lot) and plenty of walks. I would absolutely leave Cannoli in his care again.

Sky was super responsive and helpful! She was flexible too. She took great care of the pups, which isn’t the easiest with our 14yo yorkie 💙 she played with our energetic Honey and took sweet pictures for us of both. Appreciated her care and will book again when my parents are in town and need a sitter!

My dog loved Eniya and family!! She sent me pics while I was on vacation. She has a son so my Dog(Bears) had someone to play with. I felt like my dog was on vacation too. My vacation was worry free thanks to Eniya! Eniya and family are good people I could tell! I will gladly use her again😍 Big thank you Eniya!

First timer to book through Rover and it was a smashing success! Juliet seemed well cared for and entertained while her family left her for a long weekend. I would definitely book with John again. I think that Juliet got to hang with another dog put her at ease in a new home. And loved that we received periodic photos of her enjoying her vacation. Thank you!

Lauriann and Sven were wonderful sitters! They sent pictures and updates every day. They made sure my Shar-Pei mix felt comfortable through the rain and fireworks, which she can get anxiety about. I felt so safe leaving her in their care and I would definitely book them again.

Our usual boarding place was booked and we were in a bind for our long vacation to Hawaii. A friend referred us and it Couldn’t have worked out more perfectly. We have a very large pup who needs a lot of activity and affection. Lech and Briselda took care of everything and more. The daily videos on IG were a huge bonus! We will be back again and again!

Jenny absolutely blew away our expectations as a dog sitter. She took my dog, Ginger, on long walks everyday at the park near her place, and even took the cutest pictures of him sleeping and playing every day. When Ginger wasn’t eating much, she went out of her way to get his favorite dog food to mix with his kibble. Jenny provided consistent updates throughout my vacation, so I did not worry at all about him at all. I’m definitely saving Jenny as a point of contact for any future trips. I would highly recommend her to anyone based on her experience with dogs and how well she has taken care of mine.

Sophia and Andy are awesome. They sent regular updates and pictures of Max while we were away. Both are very experienced and are able to gauge and took really good care of Max. There are very few instances when Max was away from us in past, Sophie and Andy made him comfortable and gave him love, giving us the peace of mind. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again in the future.

Ruben did a really wonderful job taking care of our pup. He was very communicative, kind, and had some other dogs around to keep our guy company. I feel that our dog was very well cared for and enjoyed his time with Ruben and the crew. At the end of the stay we unexpectedly needed to have our dog dropped off at a nearby relatives house and Ruben handled it no problem. Would definitely book again!

This is the second time we have taken our dog to Matt and Michelle and family. They treat him as one of their own and our dog seems to fit right in. They send pictures and videos to keep you updated. We will continue to take our dog there.
