“Thalia was amazing! She lives right around the corner from us so it was very convenient. Toby was happy to spend time with her dog too. She sent many pics and videos and made sure he ate and took his meds. She was a super sweet person and I am confident we will use her to watch Toby next time we need to go out of town. Thank sp much Thalia!!”

“Lis and her family were incredible and took such good care of our 2 year old hound, Chowder, while we were out of the country for a week. She provided daily updates and photos and it was clear Chowder was in the best hands. Her dog Charlie was wonderful as well and was so easygoing and chill. We will definitely use Lis again! Thank you so much for taking care of our sweet boy!”
About: I have had dogs since I was born. My current dog, Ollie, is 1 year old. One of my previous dogs, who has since passed, had diabetes and required insulin shots and went blind but I took care of her for years after her diagnosis before she passed from natural causes. I love dogs, they make the world a brighter place! I work 3 days a week (or nights) so I have four days off a week. It can change depending on my schedule or I can request certain days off to fit someone else’s schedule with enough notice. I live in a house with several parks in the immediate area to keep your dog occupied! I have a lot of patience when taking care of dogs/puppies.
“We're hapoy to share that Dexter had an amazing 4-night stay with Kavita! She went above and beyond, keeping us updated regularly. What truly impressed us was her attentiveness to Dexter's specific needs - she quickly picked up on his resource guarding issue and handled it with care. Unlike other sitters, Kavita's insight and expertise made all the difference. After 5 years of using various pet care services, we can confidently say this experience was one of the best. We highly recommend Kavita's home as a warm and welcoming haven for your furry friend - it's truly a home away from home!”
“My dog, Calvin, was well cared for and seemed happy when I picked him up. Yingying provided several updates and videos and was responsive when I reached out well taking care of my dog which I appreciated.”
“Jo Tom’s place is pristine clean and Jo is amazing😀This was the first time my 10-year-old Shih Tzu Lizzee had EVER been left with anyone other than those she knew. Jo was kind and loving from the moment we met and she and Lizzee became fast friends. Jo sent messages, photos and videos several times a day and responded to my inquiries within minutes. We will request Jo for any time we need dog boarding and have already sent in a request for this December😍 Thank you, thank you, and thank you again! I’m giving Jo Tom a hundred plus stars🌠”
“Peter and his family are just great. Bailey had a wonderful time and was well cared for. It was the first time I left him with someone other than family. I could just tell how excited he was to be with the kids and have so much attention. He slept well when I bought him home so I know he was well taken care of and exercised. I highly recommend Peter. Will definitely return! Cathy H”
About: Hi, I’m Jay! 🐾 If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets as much as you do, you’ve come to the right place. Animals have been my biggest passion for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, snakes, and everything in between, and I truly believe every pet deserves personalized care, lots of love, and plenty of attention. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a cuddle buddy, playtime, meals, medication, a bath, or just someone patient and dependable while you’re away, I’m here to help! Long-haired pups or kitties that hate being brushed? No problemo! I’m happy to tackle the fluff so you don’t have to. 😊 One thing that sets me apart is that I’m constantly learning. I love researching animal behavior, enrichment, nutrition, and the best ways to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours feel safe and comfortable. I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your best friend with someone else, so I’ll care for your baby like they’re my own. You can expect plenty of updates, adorable photos, and the peace of mind that your furry, feathered, or scaly family member is in loving hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your bestie! 🤍 I have a regular day job and I still have plenty of time to care and love your furry (or scaly) best friends! They’re in great hands! I know leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I do everything I can to make the experience easy for both you and your pet. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely, keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I’ll send lots of updates and pictures (because I know I’d want them too!) so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind. Whether your pet is super energetic, a little shy, or just wants someone to hang out with, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m very detail oriented and always pay attention to things like securely closing doors and gates, keeping dogs safely leashed on walks, and making sure your pet is happy and comfortable. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and feel confident that they were treated like family while you were away.
“We boarded our 2y old whippet, Willow, with Lucille for an overnight. As a nervous parent, I couldn't have felt more confident in the care I knew Lucille would provide for Willow. She and her husband David are such lovely people, and they have a warm, welcoming home. Willow immediately took to her home away from home. Lucille took her outside frequently and went on multiple long walks with her. I left instructions for Willow's diet, snack time and bedtime routine that she followed to the letter. I can't say enough good things about the care Lucille provided, and we will definitely be boarding with her again - likely within the month!”
About: Hi, my name is Avery! I have been working with dogs professionally for 4 years. I train dogs, walk dogs, and board dogs. I have a passion for dogs, and I love to spend time outside no matter the weather. I am dog and cat first aid certified by Red Cross, and I have taken 4 years of veterinary science. My specialty is energetic dogs, or super hyper dogs, but I can handle all breeds and all temperments. I take safety and rules seriously, I provide a space where dogs can enjoy themselves while in my care while also limiting injury risk. I am flexible, so I can give all boarding dogs as much time and attention that they may need, and fulfill any special needs required. My goal is to provide you with peace of mind when you choose me for your boarding needs. I have 4 dogs, all friendly with people and other animals. I have a fenced-in yard, too. I work from home and my job is very flexible. I can make time morning, afternoon, evening for any pets in my care. I don't really go out and most of my hobbies are done at home. If your pet is dog friendly, they will hangout with me and my dogs and fall into our routine (unless otherwise noted). We get up around 8 and they get potty breaks every few hours or so. I treat any animal like my own animals. I have one senior dog dog can't use the stairs so I installed a ramp for her so she can get into the yard. I will happily accommodate your pet the same way. My yard is fenced and there are no escape paths. I have a finished basement with an entry to the yard, if your pet isn't dog friendly or something goes wrong in the group, I can keep everyone separated and prioritize the guest pet.
“Kate and her family took wonderful care of our Poppy and treated her like one of their own. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone! Just make sure your dog is cat friendly.”
“Monica was great. We will be booking again! She is extremely communicative. We exchanged messages prior to dropping our dog off, she gave periodic updates during our dogs stay and she sent pictures.”
“Rebeca is a great dog sitter! She and her family took awesome care of our dog, Louie, and he came back happy and exercised. They went on lots of walks and we were updated with daily pictures! I would definitely trust her to take care of Louie again, and I highly recommend her and her family.”
“Ashley was awesome and we loved her. Her communication was fast as it was a last minute reservation. She understood our dogs need and behaviour instantly. She really took very good care of our fur baby. He was very happy and had a great time with Ashley and her dog. We and our fur baby is very happy with Ashley and how she cared for our dog. We would certainly go back to her.”
“We were looking a place where our Beagle girl can feel at home when we were away. We usually keep her in a pet hotel for short term stay, but the hotel was at full capacity. Within a very short notice, Danielle responded to our request on Rover and arranged a meet-n-greet with her pups! Once we arrived at her place, we knew that our girl will have a great time with her new friends! Danielle and Anthony are very welcoming and we were relieved to see that our girl will have a safe place to stay while we are away! Thank you both of you and we look forward to keep Vega with you the next time we are out of town!”
“Thor had a great stay with Michelle! He played well and enjoyed his walks. We weren’t worried about Thor at all while he was staying with Michelle. We would use her again.”

I am insured and put forward the utmost effort to ensure both safety and fun for the animals in my care. My goal is to turn every interaction into a positive experience.
“Violet managed to do the impossible and made our super shy kitty love her! The “cat whisperer” title is true. She also did a great job of keeping consistent and clear communication and updates for each drop-in. Definitely plan on booking her again for our next trip!”
“Thu is an amazing warm kind caring sitter, she has looked after my animals including 2 cats on several occasions now and I feel great knowing they are in her care. My cats usually hide from people but they both come out for Thu. I let them read people and they clearly love her! She communicates really well and is very reliable and was very calm and practical when I accidently gave her the wrong alarm code once.”

“Christy did a great job taking care of our 2 cats while we were away! The shy one even came out for her! She was very communicative and met all of our requests. I would strongly recommend her and hope to use her services again”
“Stephanie was amazing. I cannot speak highly enough of her. She is kind and considerate, trustworthy, punctual, and amazing with my cat. I recently lost my other cat a few weeks before I left for vacation, and Stephanie came twice a day, every day, and made sure my remaining cat, Marley, was kept company and alright through his grief and my absence. I’m pretty sure Marley likes Stephanie more than he likes me now!! During her check ins Stephanie sent tons of photos and videos of him and it was something I looked forward to everyday. I cannot recommend Stephanie enough and I look forward to having her over again the next time I am away. Thank you Stephanie!!!!”
“Kristen is amazing!!! She needed to shovel her way in to feed our cats one night, *and* she had to clean up one of my forgetful messes, but Kristen stops at nothing to make sure our home and pets are well cared for! She also managed to befriend my very suspicious cats— no easy feat! Will definitely use Kristen again when needed! 🙌🙌”
“I highly recommend Kay for watching your pet. Kay was prompt with the appointments I scheduled and sent me pictures during the day she watched our dog. I look forward to being a repeat customer of Kay’s, thank you Kay for taking care of Jenny for us.”
“Emily was able to watch both of my cats on short notice, and she was nothing short of perfect! From the meet and greet (where both of my cats took an immediate liking to her), to her updates (with pictures!) everyday, I truly felt comfortable with having her watch them. I would 100% recommend Emily to anyone needing a Rover sitter.”

“Julie and her family were great and provided excellent piece of mind. The interview process was very helpful to make sure that it would be a good fit and we got a lot of useful updates during our dog's stay.”
“Initially before my Scottie Dog’s daycare, we did a “Meet and Greet”, which gave Jack an opportunity to interact with Kavita’s dog, Toby. Toby was very welcoming to another dog to share his spacious fenced in backyard. The next day, I dropped off Jack, who was eager to meet his new dog friend, Toby. During the day, Kavita sent me a photo, and video of Jack’s outside activity. It was very reassuring to know that my pet was doing just fine interacting with the other dogs.”
About: As a proud dog owner myself, I bring genuine love and energy to every pet I care for. I understand how important your fur baby is to you, and I treat every dog like my own — with patience, attention, and lots of playtime. Your pup is in great hands! I work part-time, so I have plenty of time and flexibility throughout the day to give your pup the attention they deserve. I’m available midday and afternoons, making me a great fit for dogs who need midday check-ins or walks. I live in a cozy 1-bedroom apartment with my own friendly, socialized dog — so your pup will always have a playmate! I keep a safe, pet-proofed space and treat every dog like family.
“Jo is extremely communicative towards the pawrents and loving toward the pups. We definitely appreciate all the photos of our pup and the reports at the end of the day. I would 100% their services as their space is lovely and the care is exceptional!”
“This was my first time leaving my goldendoodle with Xiaofan. She was very welcoming and showed the backyard and indoors. Ozzy connected well with her retriever and had a good time. Xiaofan sent frequent updates and photos, which was great.”
“Great experience—very communicative and kept me updated with photos. It was clear my dog had an amazing time playing with her dogs, because he came home happily tired. I will book again!”
“Liz was fantastic! She accommodated a quick and easy meet and greet, as this was Malcolm’s first doggy daycare experience and he is a large breed dog. She was so knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors and put both of our minds at ease about Malcolm’s stay. She sent us pictures and videos throughout the day, and our big guy had a great time! We highly recommend Liz for your dog’s care.”
“Sergio conducts himself as knowledgeable, professional, and caring of dogs. Boo loves to get there I’m the morning and Sergio always offers some really good tips on how to work on some of her behaviors. Highly recommend!”

“Cheryl has a great setup and is a dog lover and incredible resource! We had a meet and greet prior to the day I dropped off my 4 month old puppy and I felt at ease leaving her there (her first daycare experience which could’ve been nerve wracking but I knew she’d be in great hands). My pup was tired from playing and learning from the other dogs there and slept so well after! I will be using Cheryl’s services again in the future!”

I have two cats, Bleu and Theodore who are my absolute world, and I treat every pet I care for with the same love, patience, and attention as I give my own. What sets me apart from other sitters is my natural connection with animals and my commitment to creating a safe, calm, and happy environment tailored to each pet’s personality and needs. I have experience with a wide range of animals, including high-energy puppies, shy or anxious pets, and senior dogs and cats who need extra TLC. I’m reliable, intuitive, and attentive to small details—whether it’s sticking to a feeding schedule, recognizing signs of stress, or making sure your pet gets their favorite toy before bedtime.

If your pet is staying at my home, I ask that you bring their crate, leash, food, and anything else that helps them feel secure and settled (like their favorite toy or blanket). I’ll make sure they have a cozy, clean space, regular walks, and lots of affection throughout their stay. Whether we’re out for a walk or having a quiet day inside, I treat every pet like my own—with patience, love, and care tailored to their personality and needs.

“This was Leo’s second stay , and we were very happy. Angelina was sending us pictures , Leo was in good hands while we were overseas. We will definitely consider her services for future again.”
“Lis and her family were incredible and took such good care of our 2 year old hound, Chowder, while we were out of the country for a week. She provided daily updates and photos and it was clear Chowder was in the best hands. Her dog Charlie was wonderful as well and was so easygoing and chill. We will definitely use Lis again! Thank you so much for taking care of our sweet boy!”
About: I have had dogs since I was born. My current dog, Ollie, is 1 year old. One of my previous dogs, who has since passed, had diabetes and required insulin shots and went blind but I took care of her for years after her diagnosis before she passed from natural causes. I love dogs, they make the world a brighter place! I work 3 days a week (or nights) so I have four days off a week. It can change depending on my schedule or I can request certain days off to fit someone else’s schedule with enough notice. I live in a house with several parks in the immediate area to keep your dog occupied! I have a lot of patience when taking care of dogs/puppies.
“We're hapoy to share that Dexter had an amazing 4-night stay with Kavita! She went above and beyond, keeping us updated regularly. What truly impressed us was her attentiveness to Dexter's specific needs - she quickly picked up on his resource guarding issue and handled it with care. Unlike other sitters, Kavita's insight and expertise made all the difference. After 5 years of using various pet care services, we can confidently say this experience was one of the best. We highly recommend Kavita's home as a warm and welcoming haven for your furry friend - it's truly a home away from home!”
“My dog, Calvin, was well cared for and seemed happy when I picked him up. Yingying provided several updates and videos and was responsive when I reached out well taking care of my dog which I appreciated.”
“Peter and his family are just great. Bailey had a wonderful time and was well cared for. It was the first time I left him with someone other than family. I could just tell how excited he was to be with the kids and have so much attention. He slept well when I bought him home so I know he was well taken care of and exercised. I highly recommend Peter. Will definitely return! Cathy H”
About: Hi, I’m Jay! 🐾 If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets as much as you do, you’ve come to the right place. Animals have been my biggest passion for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, snakes, and everything in between, and I truly believe every pet deserves personalized care, lots of love, and plenty of attention. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a cuddle buddy, playtime, meals, medication, a bath, or just someone patient and dependable while you’re away, I’m here to help! Long-haired pups or kitties that hate being brushed? No problemo! I’m happy to tackle the fluff so you don’t have to. 😊 One thing that sets me apart is that I’m constantly learning. I love researching animal behavior, enrichment, nutrition, and the best ways to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress-free. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours feel safe and comfortable. I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your best friend with someone else, so I’ll care for your baby like they’re my own. You can expect plenty of updates, adorable photos, and the peace of mind that your furry, feathered, or scaly family member is in loving hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your bestie! 🤍 I have a regular day job and I still have plenty of time to care and love your furry (or scaly) best friends! They’re in great hands! I know leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful, so I do everything I can to make the experience easy for both you and your pet. I’ll always follow your care instructions closely, keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible, and make sure they get plenty of love and attention while you’re away. I’ll send lots of updates and pictures (because I know I’d want them too!) so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind. Whether your pet is super energetic, a little shy, or just wants someone to hang out with, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m very detail oriented and always pay attention to things like securely closing doors and gates, keeping dogs safely leashed on walks, and making sure your pet is happy and comfortable. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and feel confident that they were treated like family while you were away.
“We boarded our 2y old whippet, Willow, with Lucille for an overnight. As a nervous parent, I couldn't have felt more confident in the care I knew Lucille would provide for Willow. She and her husband David are such lovely people, and they have a warm, welcoming home. Willow immediately took to her home away from home. Lucille took her outside frequently and went on multiple long walks with her. I left instructions for Willow's diet, snack time and bedtime routine that she followed to the letter. I can't say enough good things about the care Lucille provided, and we will definitely be boarding with her again - likely within the month!”
About: Hi, my name is Avery! I have been working with dogs professionally for 4 years. I train dogs, walk dogs, and board dogs. I have a passion for dogs, and I love to spend time outside no matter the weather. I am dog and cat first aid certified by Red Cross, and I have taken 4 years of veterinary science. My specialty is energetic dogs, or super hyper dogs, but I can handle all breeds and all temperments. I take safety and rules seriously, I provide a space where dogs can enjoy themselves while in my care while also limiting injury risk. I am flexible, so I can give all boarding dogs as much time and attention that they may need, and fulfill any special needs required. My goal is to provide you with peace of mind when you choose me for your boarding needs. I have 4 dogs, all friendly with people and other animals. I have a fenced-in yard, too. I work from home and my job is very flexible. I can make time morning, afternoon, evening for any pets in my care. I don't really go out and most of my hobbies are done at home. If your pet is dog friendly, they will hangout with me and my dogs and fall into our routine (unless otherwise noted). We get up around 8 and they get potty breaks every few hours or so. I treat any animal like my own animals. I have one senior dog dog can't use the stairs so I installed a ramp for her so she can get into the yard. I will happily accommodate your pet the same way. My yard is fenced and there are no escape paths. I have a finished basement with an entry to the yard, if your pet isn't dog friendly or something goes wrong in the group, I can keep everyone separated and prioritize the guest pet.
