“Callie had a wonderful time. Brittany had other dogs and they played together so well. She kept us up to date on how things were going and sent cute photos.”
“Xue was wonderful with our little fur baby, Azuki. She was patient and informative with my questions leading up to Azuki staying with her and was reassuring and easy to work with all around. I really enjoyed the daily pictures and videos updating me about how Azuki was doing. Xue will definitely be the first person I reach out to the next time I’m out of town. 🐾”
“This family was marvelous with my two dogs. I felt they were well taken care of and got plenty of love. I received an update on both of them and pictures at the end of the day, which was perfect. They both got plenty of outside time and felt comfortable there. I never felt worried and they will go there again when my family goes out of town.”
About: We love animals! We are a mother/adult son team who will be working together to make your pets feel loved and happy. We recently lost our dog of 16 years and miss having pets around. We have had several dogs and cats of our own over the years and have fostered and placed many more for adoption. We have experience with dogs as small as 4lbs, up to 80lbs, from puppies/kittens to seniors. You will receive frequent updates and pictures throughout the booking, and we are very responsive to texts and calls. My teammate Alex and I are currently working part-time, with alternating schedules, so there is always someone available to care for your pet. We provide frequent updates and pictures, so you never have to wonder what your pet is up to. DROP-IN VISITS: We will listen to and follow your instructions and preferences to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible. HOUSE SITTING in your home: We know pets are most comfortable in their own home, so we will listen to and follow your instructions and preferences to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible. We are healthy and active and try our best to meet the activity level of your pet. If you would like, we can visit a few times before the booking to ensure your pet is comfortable with us beforehand. With two of us working together, we can provide more frequent check-ins, meaning we can accommodate animals who do not like to be kenneled or left alone. We are able to administer medications. BOARDING in our home: Since we have no pets our own, yours will get all the attention, and no children to bother the senior dogs who just want to relax. We also do not accept more than one family's pets at a time, so no need to worry if your pet will get along with others. We have experience with anxious and reactive dogs as well. We encourage you to visit our home beforehand a few times so your pet is not confused and scared when you leave them for a few days. We have a completely fenced in yard, but dogs are never left out by themselves. With two of us working together, there is hardly a time when your pet will be left alone in the home, meaning we can accommodate animals who do not like to be kenneled. We will listen to and follow your instructions and preferences to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible. Cats will have their own room to chill in or can roam the house freely. We are able to administer medications. DOG WALKING: We can discuss your preferences for walking locations and times. Looking forward to hearing from you and providing top quality care for your precious fur children!
“Erin is the BEST!! She keeps me updated with photos, and my 1 year old golden doodle is a part of her family while she's there. She often has other dogs there too for her to play with. 100% recommend Erin.”
“Cristina is a great dog caregiver! My dog is blind and she took extra care of him. She is flexible and very accommodating. Her house is a great place for dogs and her fenced backyard is huge! And she took Finn on walks since he does like doing that. I look forward to booking with Cristina again when I go out of town!”
“The very first thing my dog did when seeing Mo was to jump up and give her a long hug. That says so much! He loves his little mini-vacations with her family. Thank you, Mo!!!”
“Elizabeth and Chris were wonderful to work with. We immediately knew that Louie was going to feel right at home with them. We felt very confident leaving Louie in their safe care. We will not hesitate to leave him with them again.”
“Samantha was great!! I ran into many crises during my trip and luckily I didn’t have to worry about my boy at all. I could tell Samantha was very caring and knew I was having trouble, so she even went out her way to accommodate me and the pup without complaint as she knew I had a lot on my plate. We need more Rover sitter like her!!”
“Amazing Family and dog watchers! Very communicative and gave us timely updates. We already booked for them to watch our dog again. Can’t recommend this family enough!”
“Angie exceeded our high expectations. She's very detail oriented and took the care of our dog very seriously. We got daily updates which put our mind at ease. A truly loving home for your pup!”
“New to Rover, Steve was at the top of the search list and surely Tako and I experienced why. He was great, he has a way with dogs and absolutely loves them! Very chill, laid back, and accommodated very well to my requests or changes. He is very responsive, updates on how Tako is doing, and detailed Tako’s visit at the end. The added bonus is that all I had to provide for Tako for his stay was a bowl and food, Steve took care of the rest! Tako was in very good hands, allowing me to enjoy my trip with no worries about my furry son. I would definitely recommend him to anyone else and will be asking Steve to dogsit Tako in the future!”
“Patty did a fabulous job of watching our dog, Tucker. We appreciated that she was willing to meet us prior to our stay. She did a great job of providing lots of pictures throughout our trip. Patty made Tucker right at home and he looked so comfortable and well cared for. We would definitely recommend using her and plan to use her for future trips!”
“Since Griffin works from home he was able to provide our pup with the human company he is used to at home. This was important for me. Griffin’s little dog was happy to share space with ours. Easy access to play in the fenced in backyard was especially nice on sunny days. Willy was well-cared for during his stay in Griffin’s home.”
“Angela made our sweet Piper feel right at home. Communication was wonderful and she sent us pictures daily. Piper was happy when we picked her up. We will definitely ask Angela to sit for us again 🥰”

“I am so grateful for the wonderful care Chandler gave my two very shy and finicky cats while I was away for the week. It takes a special kind of patience and kindness to win over cats like mine. Knowing he came by twice a day to feed them, water them, and keep everything clean gave me such peace of mind. I was truly relaxed knowing they were in such caring hands. Thank you again for going above and beyond for my furry family members! I’ll definitely be asking for you again when I go out of town!”
“Briley was a very good listener which was important to me since I've got an elderly cat. She was friendly and easy to talk to, prompt with care and I appreciated her level of communication. Thank you Briley, we will rebook for sure!”
About: I have always had cats myself, and have worked in the pet care industry with dogs and cats since 2019. I am happy to care for cats of all ages, as well as cats with special needs. I look forward to meeting your kitty!
“Good care provided to pups and cats. They are also good communicators. They let us know when they were concerned about the animals. There was also the complication of our house being on the market to sell.”
“If I could leave Marianna a 500 star review, that still wouldn’t be enough. I needed last minute care due to a medical emergency, and she not only accommodated my need with less than 18 hours notice, but she did so with a level of care for my kitties that I have never experienced before. Within 15 minutes of her arrival, I had photos and videos of all of my babies (which is no small feat in itself), and she continued to provide multiple updates, photos, and videos. She was so so so loving and gentle with my kitties, stayed with them all day and overnight, and gave me the comfort and reassurance I was desperately needing. I will absolutely be hiring her every time I need a sitter moving forward (hopefully sans the hospital stay and ideally for a fun getaway instead). Thank you so much, Marianna. There are not enough ways to express my gratitude!”
About: I have taken care of a few kittens in the past for a few days. Have cat-sit for some friends in the past and realized each cat is different and operates at their own pace. The little purrs are my favorite!
“Michelle was amazing with our 3 cats! She was kind, communicative, and so attentive to our babies. You can absolutely tell how much she cares when she sends her check in summaries, and she got some great pics + videos. Even though there was a crazy storm while we were away, we never had to worry about anything since Michelle was proactive and kept us in the loop. She’s truly a gem!”
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong feline enthusiast who has happily cared for cats for over 20 years. I speak fluent "cat" and truly understand their unique personalities, boundaries, and routines. Currently, I am a proud pet parent to three wonderful cats of my own, so I am completely in tune with the daily dedication it takes to keep a multi-cat household happy, healthy, and clean. From energetic kitten play to gentle senior care, I treat every kitty with the same love and patience I give my own trio. I can't wait to meet your furry family members!

“Rae and Chris are wonderful with our girl, Pickles. She is a rescue and hadn't been exposed to other dogs in her former home. We really needed to socialize her because we often have guests with dogs at our home. We nervously decided to try day care. Rae and Chris shared their knowledge about dog behavior and reassured us that she would be fine. Within minutes of her first day we got a video of her playing with other dogs! It was amazing, and we feel so happy that we found Rae and Chris. Pickles has been there four times now ... and she LOVES going! We know she's in good hands!”
“Our dog took to Cristina, and it made me feel at ease the way Cristina interacted with our dog. She was personable, and my dog came home tired from her stay, which is a good thing for us. We would absolutely use Cristina again!”
“I was initially hesitant about booking a doggy daycare, especially after hearing various rumors and fearing the worst. However, I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with the daycare I chose. It truly exceeded my expectations. My dog, Coco, showed immense love and care for Miss Shantanice, who was very happy and content in her care. I . I was initially hesitant about booking a doggy daycare, especially after hearing various rumors and fearing the worst. However, I must say that I was thoroughly impressed with the daycare I chose. It truly exceeded my expectations. My dog, Coco, showed immense love and care for Miss Shantanice, who was very happy and content in her care. I am grateful that I found Miss Shantanice during my time of need and will definitely book her whenever I require doggy daycare services. If you want your dog to be loved and cared for, I highly recommend Miss Shantanice.”
“Anna and her team did such an amazing job taking care of our furbaby! They were super easy to communicate with and we’re always willing to provide updates with pictures included about our pups. They provided the best of care for our pup and had an array of places for him (fenced in) for him to run like crazy! They even have a designated dog area in their home! I was so happy that my dog (who normally is never relaxed when he’s away) was actually able to lay down and sleep! Truly amazing work and I’m so excited for our next booking!”
About: I have worked in veterinary Kennels and in shelters. I am also a certified Dog and Cat trainer through Animal Behavior College in 2013. I have been trained in animal first aide. I have a military I.D. so I can also care for military families as well! I come home on my lunch break to let the dogs run in the yard (we NEVER leave the dogs outside on their own for safety from hawks etc). The longest they are alone is 5 hours. Our live revolve around our own dogs so they will feel like one of the family in no time. We have a fenced .75 acre yard that we stay out with them for safety. Older pups will be carried on any stairs to prevent any falls. Kenneling is a part of our home for safety. But if we are home they are out. The dogs have their own room where they kennel that has safety film on the windows so they can benefit from the light but are not tormented by the squirrels in the trees. Cats are kept in their own area as well. I know how important your dog is and I will treat them the way I would want mine treated. With the exception of errands and taking kids to school I am home full time. We treat visitors as one of the pack. Often our visiting pups like to lounge on the couch when not supervised in the yard. I have a fenced yard and dogs are not left outside unattended (especially the little ones). We have a multi layered floor plan so if a dog needs to be alone for a bit we have the ability to do so.
“I appreciate Alex's incredibly fast response time and acceptance of my last minute request and time changes. Midas seemed to have a fun day and I got pictures and a video!”
“Always the greatest feeling to leave Kayla or Winston with Stephanie, who absolutely loves her. When both dogs are dragging you to the front door to get inside it’s always such a good feeling.”
About: Located just 10 minutes west of the Legends of Kansas City, your fur-baby will get the TLC that you’d provide in your own home. Plenty of attention and room to run! I currently work some evenings and weekends in order to homeschool during the day so we are home often. I will be clear about availability during bookings. My family is fur-baby friendly with 4 goats, a flock of chickens, two sweet puppies, and a cat currently. During bookings my two dogs (one is an outdoor farm dog) and cat will be kept separate to ensure the safety and comfort of all. Any medical, training, attention, and care needs will be accommodated as requested by the owner.
“Lori was incredible and compassionate, promptly responding to my text messages. Since it was my first time leaving my puppies with someone, I would strongly recommend Lori and Rover. Thank you for making this experience so delightful.”
“I booked with Taylor to watch my dog for a couple hours one morning. He has separation anxiety. She understands the needs for a dog with SA and was able to help manage his nerves while we were gone for some errands.”
About: Born and raised around cats and dogs of all ages and breeds, I’ve developed a lifelong passion for animal care. From energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra attention, I’ve provided love, patience, and reliable care. My experience includes feeding, walking, administering medications, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable. I treat every pet as if they’re my own! As a stay-at-home mom with school-aged kids, my schedule is flexible, giving me plenty of availability to dedicate to pet care. Whether it’s morning walks, midday playtime, or evening cuddles, I can easily work pet care into my daily routine. While my kids are at school, I focus on caring for your pets, ensuring they get the love and attention they need. Being home throughout the day allows me to accommodate special requests, provide updates, and keep your pets happy and well-cared for. Safety and trust are my top priorities. As a pet owner of two dogs and one cat, I understand the importance of creating a secure, comfortable environment. My home features a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and crates if needed. I can also separate animals into different parts of the house to ensure everyone feels at ease. Your pets will receive attentive care in a loving, stress-free space tailored to their needs.
“Ashlyn was amazing! She has a beautiful home in a beautiful neighborhood that’s close to downtown KC and amazing parks, it was very convenient to drop Snowy off every day while I played in a tennis tournament. She sent photo’s every day, I’ll absolutely book with her again if I’m in town.”
“Brittany was great and Ovi had a great time staying with she and her family! Very flexible and personable and made sure every detail about his care was attended to. And their dog Franklin was a great companion for Ovi!”
About: Hi! We’re Jordan and Austin, and we’re getting married this February after recently moving into our first home together in Parkville, Missouri. We’ve both had dogs our entire lives and absolutely love them, but since we’ll be traveling a lot this year before getting one of our own, we’d love the opportunity to care for other people’s pets and get our much-needed dose of puppy love along the way! One of us is almost always home! I work both from home and in the field, and my fiancé works from home full-time, so your pup will have plenty of company, attention, and love throughout the day. We’re available on weekdays and most weekends, and if our schedule ever changes, we’ll update our calendar accordingly. We can’t wait to meet your furry family member and give them all the playtime, cuddles, and care they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We have a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run and play, a spacious basement for indoor playtime when the weather isn’t ideal, and a beautiful neighborhood with great sidewalks for daily walks. Since we don’t have any pets of our own, your furry family member will receive our full attention, plenty of one-on-one care, and lots of love in a calm, safe, and comfortable home.

I’d love to meet your pup and become their new bestie! 🐾 I work remotely, which means I’m home with my dogs pretty much all day and am always attentive to their needs. Dogs are already a big part of my everyday routine, so caring for another pup fits right in! I love having a dog around to keep me company while I work, and I’m able to give them plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. We have a spacious, fully fenced-in yard where the pups can safely run around and get some energy out, plus my two friendly dogs, Wesley and Wally, who love having a friend around! I’m also happy to accommodate whatever makes your pup feel most comfortable. If they’re crate trained and prefer their crate, we can absolutely do that. We even have a spare bedroom that can be their own little space if they’d rather have some quiet time away from the other dogs. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and at home here.

About: Nice to meet you, I'm Kat! I have been working in the pet industry since early 2019 - beginning as a kennel attendant, evolving into a professional dog trainer in two prominent KC training facilities, and now running my own small business. I am thoroughly versed in canine care and communication, and use my expertise to help every dog I care for have a comfortable and positive experience. Not only that, but I am also very knowledgeable in canine enrichment and stimulation. Have a high-energy, high-needs breed? They'll end their days with me happy and tired. A senior dog that has special needs and benefits from therapeutic stretches? Say no more. Puppies are absolutely welcome as well, and I would love to provide them with opportunities to practice socialization, confidence building, and manners. My experience also means that I am able to care for dogs with behavioural issues and special health needs. I know it can be difficult to find care for dogs with "quirks," and I hope to make that search a little easier. Send me a message and we can chat about your dog and if I would be a good fit. I'm looking forward to meeting your pup! ** I do have a part-time job that takes up much of my time on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. This doesn't mean that I'm totally unavailable those days, but we'll need to chat to make sure that my schedule works for your pet. 🙂 The pets I work with are my priority! I want to make sure that my schedule allows me to look after your furry family members' needs. I do work long hours on weekends - but sometimes this can be flexible. We'll have a thorough chat before you book to make sure that your pets will get all of the attention they need and the love they deserve. 🐾IN MY HOME (boarding):🐾 (See "IN YOUR HOME" section below for housesitting. Boarding is dogs only. If you have other kinds of pets, please choose housesitting. Thank you!) My house is pretty well "dog-proofed" and oriented in a way that I am able to keep a close eye on pets from just about anywhere! So your pup gets to be the king of the castle, with lots of room inside & outside to run and play. Not to mention the mountain of toys.... When I cannot monitor them, they'll get to chill in a cozy crate or pen, with fresh water always available and a chew toy, puzzle, or snack to keep them entertained. For walks and other adventures, I will always keep your dog leashed and close to me. I love to take dogs out on excursions to parks, trails, and other such places! Of course, I will always check with you first to make sure that we don't go somewhere your dog doesn't enjoy. I have three adult dogs (all ~45lbs) and a cat in my home. The cat is dog-friendly, but also is able to be kept entirely separate from your dog if needed. My dogs are all 100% dog-friendly, have good play manners, and are also able to be neutral around/ignore other dogs when told. They are very patient with young puppies as well! And if your pup isn't one for new friends, don't worry - they can be kept totally separate on request, and your dog will still get plenty of one-on-one playtime & snuggles with me. It is 100% up to you if your pup has any interaction with other dogs (or the cat). Full separation is possible, but if you'd like your dog to make some furry friends, I am happy to safely facilitate that! All interactions between your dog and other pets will be of limited time and monitored - the dogs will never be alone together. For safety and management reasons, I cannot accept boarding bookings for dogs that are not able to be comfortable in a crate (or pen, for small dogs only). Have other questions or concerns? Send me a message and let's chat about it! Updates will be sent daily, as well as pictures and videos. I look forward to meeting your furry friends. 🐾IN YOUR HOME (housesitting):🐾 Dogs, cats, and exotic pets 👍 (See "IN MY HOME section above for boarding.) Your house, your rules! Before the booking, you & I will have a detailed conversation about your pets' schedule, rules, needs, and preferences. I am happy to follow all of that to a T! My job is to keep your pets happy and safe while you are away. With 7 years of pet care experience, I am confident in caring for all of their needs. This includes pets with behavioral concerns and special needs! For walks and other adventures, I will always keep your dog leashed and close to me. I love to take dogs out on excursions to parks, trails, and other such places, but I will always check with you first to make sure that we don't go somewhere your dog doesn't enjoy. Updates will be sent daily, as well as pictures and videos. I look forward to meeting your furry friends. (Scaled or feathered friends welcome, too!)

About: I raised my first dog to a healthy, ripe 17 years of age. My new pup is a rescue and I have helped her become an obedient (mostly), well-mannered good girl. We take walks everyday, even when it’s cold. I have patient and a calm demeanor which I believe most dogs need when interacting with a new person. I work during the day M-F most of the time. I am free in the evenings and on weekends. Currently working part time so my schedule is a bit more open. I have an energetic puppy that loves to run around at the dog park at my apartment complex. I typically crate my dog when I’m not home. Okay with having dogs free at client’s house if that what the pup is most comfortable with.

I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family.

I love having the opportunity to stay active, spend time with animals, and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their pets are getting the attention and care they deserve. I can access MILITARY BASE !!!! I take caring for animals seriously and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting them in their home, I focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. My home has a fenced-in yard, giving dogs a safe space to enjoy some outdoor time and play. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s individual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any special instructions. My goal is to give both pets and their owners peace of mind while they’re apart.
About: I have three years of experience in a doggy daycare where I was trained by dog trainers I am very good at picking up on dog behavior. I am trained in dog walking so I can deliver the safest walk for your pup available. I am able to administer any medication’s, help with potty training for puppies or any minor training in general if needed. At the dog facility, I was also trained to do baths so if you want a bath for your pup at the end of the day, I am more than happy to take care of them. I look forward to meeting all of your snuggle bugs. I am currently working from home so I will always be home in attentive to your pup. They will receive 3 to 4 walks a day one in the morning, one midday, one in the afternoon and one at night I have a dog friendly corgi who lives in my home. I will always be home at all times I will be home during your pups stay to supervise.
About: I was always around a dog as a child and grew up knowing what they wanted, when to go outside, when to feed them and make sure they were played with. They can be unbelievable friends and I think they keep our lives actively expanding. I like to work part time and do the dog sitting when ever it's needed. It can be a random cases and I'm more welcoming to act on immediate services needed. I male sure the pet doesn't get into anything. For example: The trash can, anything chemical on the floor and make sure before they come over...if dog is being watched from my home. I make sure to clean up vacuum and make sure it's an very clean environment. Only feed them what pet owners advise me to give their dogs.
About: I always insure that pets are comfortable! I’ve taken care of old cats and dogs, and I when they are old like that it’s important to meet their needs first, as most of the time they need a lot of guidance and help. I am currently going into online college, so most of my day is free! I often sit down and watch TV or play video games, but I mostly enjoy writing and drawing in my free time I personally like to ask owners how there pets are in the company of others, as well as if any weather bugs them! The comfort of my pets, and owners is always my number 1 priority! I want to make sure that they are comfortable around me, and I never approach any animal until I’ve let them sniff me, it’s important that they trust me to be around them.
About: I understand that your pets are family. My goal is to provide dependable, compassionate care so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I offer pet sitting, house sitting, dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, waste cleanup, playtime, companionship, medication administration (if needed), and lots of love and attention tailored to your pet’s routine. Whether you have energetic dogs, independent cats, or multiple pets, I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own home. I’m reliable, trustworthy, and treat every home with the same respect I would my own. I believe in clear communication and will gladly provide updates and photos so you can see how your pets are doing while you’re away. Because I am a full-time online student, my schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing me to make pet sitting my top priority. Unlike a traditional 9-to-5 job where I would be away from the house all day, my school structure allows me to work entirely from home on my own terms. This means I have ample open blocks of time throughout the day dedicated solely to pet care. I can easily accommodate structured feeding times, frequent potty breaks, and mid-day play sessions without interruption. Your pets will receive consistent companionship, and because I'm studying from my laptop, I am available to provide the constant supervision, love, and attention they deserve." When caring for pets in your home, my primary goal is to maintain their regular routine so they feel safe and secure while you are away. Seamless Routine Adherence: I strictly follow your established feeding schedules, medication timelines, and specific instructions to keep their environment predictable and stress-free. Meticulous Cat Care: As a multi-cat owner myself, I know the importance of a clean environment. I scoop litter boxes thoroughly during every visit and sweep up any tracked litter. Quality Companionship: Because my full-time student schedule is so flexible, I don't just rush in and out. I dedicate genuine time to interactive playtime with their favorite toys, gentle grooming, or just quiet companionship on the couch while I study. Home Respect & Communication: I respect your space, leave it exactly as I found it, and provide you with detailed daily updates and plenty of photos so you never have to wonder how they are doing.

“Callie had a wonderful time. Brittany had other dogs and they played together so well. She kept us up to date on how things were going and sent cute photos.”
“This family was marvelous with my two dogs. I felt they were well taken care of and got plenty of love. I received an update on both of them and pictures at the end of the day, which was perfect. They both got plenty of outside time and felt comfortable there. I never felt worried and they will go there again when my family goes out of town.”
About: We love animals! We are a mother/adult son team who will be working together to make your pets feel loved and happy. We recently lost our dog of 16 years and miss having pets around. We have had several dogs and cats of our own over the years and have fostered and placed many more for adoption. We have experience with dogs as small as 4lbs, up to 80lbs, from puppies/kittens to seniors. You will receive frequent updates and pictures throughout the booking, and we are very responsive to texts and calls. My teammate Alex and I are currently working part-time, with alternating schedules, so there is always someone available to care for your pet. We provide frequent updates and pictures, so you never have to wonder what your pet is up to. DROP-IN VISITS: We will listen to and follow your instructions and preferences to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible. HOUSE SITTING in your home: We know pets are most comfortable in their own home, so we will listen to and follow your instructions and preferences to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible. We are healthy and active and try our best to meet the activity level of your pet. If you would like, we can visit a few times before the booking to ensure your pet is comfortable with us beforehand. With two of us working together, we can provide more frequent check-ins, meaning we can accommodate animals who do not like to be kenneled or left alone. We are able to administer medications. BOARDING in our home: Since we have no pets our own, yours will get all the attention, and no children to bother the senior dogs who just want to relax. We also do not accept more than one family's pets at a time, so no need to worry if your pet will get along with others. We have experience with anxious and reactive dogs as well. We encourage you to visit our home beforehand a few times so your pet is not confused and scared when you leave them for a few days. We have a completely fenced in yard, but dogs are never left out by themselves. With two of us working together, there is hardly a time when your pet will be left alone in the home, meaning we can accommodate animals who do not like to be kenneled. We will listen to and follow your instructions and preferences to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible. Cats will have their own room to chill in or can roam the house freely. We are able to administer medications. DOG WALKING: We can discuss your preferences for walking locations and times. Looking forward to hearing from you and providing top quality care for your precious fur children!
“Erin is the BEST!! She keeps me updated with photos, and my 1 year old golden doodle is a part of her family while she's there. She often has other dogs there too for her to play with. 100% recommend Erin.”
“Cristina is a great dog caregiver! My dog is blind and she took extra care of him. She is flexible and very accommodating. Her house is a great place for dogs and her fenced backyard is huge! And she took Finn on walks since he does like doing that. I look forward to booking with Cristina again when I go out of town!”
“Elizabeth and Chris were wonderful to work with. We immediately knew that Louie was going to feel right at home with them. We felt very confident leaving Louie in their safe care. We will not hesitate to leave him with them again.”

“Samantha was great!! I ran into many crises during my trip and luckily I didn’t have to worry about my boy at all. I could tell Samantha was very caring and knew I was having trouble, so she even went out her way to accommodate me and the pup without complaint as she knew I had a lot on my plate. We need more Rover sitter like her!!”
“Amazing Family and dog watchers! Very communicative and gave us timely updates. We already booked for them to watch our dog again. Can’t recommend this family enough!”
“New to Rover, Steve was at the top of the search list and surely Tako and I experienced why. He was great, he has a way with dogs and absolutely loves them! Very chill, laid back, and accommodated very well to my requests or changes. He is very responsive, updates on how Tako is doing, and detailed Tako’s visit at the end. The added bonus is that all I had to provide for Tako for his stay was a bowl and food, Steve took care of the rest! Tako was in very good hands, allowing me to enjoy my trip with no worries about my furry son. I would definitely recommend him to anyone else and will be asking Steve to dogsit Tako in the future!”
“Lisa and Jon took care of my dog for a full week and they were excellent. Great communication, and regular updates with pictures, and our dogs seemed to get along great. We had no issues and I’ll definitely be coming back to Lisa and Jon the next time I have to leave town :)”
“Ms. Petra was caring and very considerate. She took great care of my pup, and even made last minute accommodations for me. She has earned a lifelong customer and canine companion”
“Bandit was so happy and calm when I picked him up. It was very clear he was comfortable and well taken care of! She took him on several walks and sent many pictures. He was a HAPPY BOY!!”
