“Absolutely fantastic experience with boarding! Vignesh took wonderful care of Mylo while I was away, sending daily updates including texts, photos, and even videos. This was my first time using Rover to board Mylo, who is a large breed (Bernese Mountain Dog). I was pleased that Mylo seemed incredibly comfortable with Vignesh and his family, and I brought him back home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend Vignesh for anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Meli is a fantastic sitter! She took awesome care of my pup, Chunk. I really enjoyed the pictures that she sent me throughout the day. It was a comfort knowing that he was in good hands. You can tell that she is very passionate about animals!”
“Paola took care of our blind chihuahua and extremely energetic labradoodle for 5+ days. She did an amazing job and we fully trust her taking care of our dogs. Thank you Paola!”
“Gabriel was great!! He was able to accommodate our two dogs very last minute (since our return flights were cancelled and we needed a new sitter) and then again he was very flexible to continue looking after our dogs when our flights were rescheduled multiple days later by the airlines. We appreciated the great communication and our boys were tired when we picked them up which is not an easy feat for our Australian Cattle Dog puppy! he definitely gave them lots of exercise and attention. Would definitely recommend and will be keeping his contact handy!”
“Lingwen was AMAZING! She made Nico feel super comfortable at her home and welcomed. Lingwen sent updates and pictures of Nico thought out the stay which we loved. Thank you much again for caring for Nico! If you’re looking for a sitter, do not hesitate to book her. She’s the best :)”
“First time using Rover and Briana was great! She sent multiple photos and updates for the 2 days our dog Haley was boarding with her. Will absolutely book with her again in the future.”
About: I grew up in a home where we always had many animals. Because of that, caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I’ve spent many years helping take care of pets at home and for family and friends. I currently have a cat named Floyd, who I recently adopted. He is very affectionate, loving, gentle, and gets along very well with other animals. I currently work from home full-time during the weekdays, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability Monday through Friday. Being home throughout the day allows me to give pets consistent attention, care, companionship, and supervision. I enjoy incorporating pet care into my daily routine and making sure animals feel comfortable, active, and well cared for while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Although my home does not have a fenced yard, I always take pets outside on a leash and stay with them while they enjoy time outdoors. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks and giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day.
“We loved Andreana so much that we decided to send Titus to her for one overnight. His experience and our experience with her was over the top wonderful. We'll be sending Titus to her anytime we need a sitter.”
“For a recent family vacation we used DogVacay for the first time. Mariann was an excellent introduction to the service. We received daily messages with images, so we always knew our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend.”
“Tamara and her entire family were EXCELLENT with Cooper!!! Cooper received A+ care while we were away! We have found our sitter and Cooper has found his home away from home. We thank you so very much!”
“CC took care of old gal Penny in her home for 6 days. We got updates in the morning and evenings with the cutest pics of our girl. She even picked her up and dropped her off! CC was amazing and very easy to coordinate with. Is kind and patient. Penny absolutely loved her! Looking forward to having her watch Penny again in a few weeks.”
“Absolute gem of a sitter! Bella had a great time with Dawn and her family for two nights. They are incredibly nice caring people. They took great care of Bella and provided updates with photos throughout the stay. I recommend Dawn be everyone’s first choice!”
“Radhika was a great dog sitter for my dog Finn. Radhika could ease Finn's separation anxiety and I was very comfortable leaving Finn with her. She took Finn for walks and updated me regularly with photos. She is very responsible and reliable and will leave Finn with her in the future. Thank you Radhika!”
About: I've been a dog walker and pet sitter for 10+ years for family, friends, and clients. I have experience in veterinary medicine for 5+ years and have found a deep passion in caring for animals for my career. I'm a student so I have a variable schedule, but I am home often. I don't have a pet anymore, but it would bring me joy to treat your pet as if it were my own! I treat animals how they are used to being treated by their owners. If they need space, I give them space. If they need lots of attention, then I'm happy to provide that too!
“Melissa and her family were amazing hosts for our dog. Koe loves to be busy and this was the perfect house for him. We got lots of pictures and updates throughout the weekend and know he had a great time getting lots of activity, attention and love. We will definitely be rebooking!”
“Migle was absolutely wonderful with Zoë. She went above and beyond-carrying her up and down the stairs because Zoë couldn't manage them, sending regular photo updates, and treating her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing Zoë was so well cared for. Truly exceptional.”
“Luca, once again, had a wonderful stay with Jackie and her family. He is always so happy to see her, which provides us great comfort knowing he enjoys spending time with her. We are blessed to have found Jackie to care for Luca when we travel. Truly one in a million!”

“Genevieve provided outstanding care to our cat Kiki! She was very perceptive of his needs, learned his personality quickly and sent many photos and video (which gave us a worry free vacation). She has a true gift with animals, and we are grateful to have met her! We came home to a very happy and relaxed kitty. She also helped by taking in packages and vacuuming, it felt great to come home to a happy cat and clean home! We highly recommend her and hope she will care for Kiki again!”
“Lauren is the BEST! She did such an amazing job taking care of my three cats while I was out of town. Her pictures and updates were amazing! Lauren is kind, punctual, and such a light. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”
“Jackie has been so wonderful and helpful! Our new puppy needs a lot of face time, and having such a kind and attentive dog nanny keeps this nervous dog mommy from worrying on work days! She keeps our Dolly on schedule and reinforces good habits and training. I cannot recommend her enough!!”
“Nicole was great with my cat Hallie! Hallie is a very sweet and loving cat, but also very skittish around strangers. In a few short days, Nicole was able to gain her trust and Hallie would hang out with her. Nicole was very quick with responding to messages, particularly when I had questions or concerns, especially when Hallie was found to have some health issues less than a week before I was going out of town. Hallie seemed much happier and more energetic when I came back than when I left. I attribute that to Nicole taking such great care of her.”
“Eko and Sarah did an excellent job cat sitting for us! Before the booking they came and met the cats, and we were immediately impressed with the very thoughtful questions and the thorough note taking. They seemed to really understand cats, and asked some insightful questions I hadn’t even thought of. One of our cats has a medical condition that requires regular medicine, and they took it very seriously, and even offered to check in on her again for free during the day to confirm she was ok. They even found a way to get our more picky cat to eat when they were there (treats on the food!) The regular updates and cat photos were great, and really gave us peace of mind while we were on vacation.”
About: I've been around cats my entire life and currently share my home with two cats, Oscar Wilde and Dorian Gray. Growing up, cats were always part of the family. One of my most memorable experiences was helping care for a mother cat and her seven kittens after we rescued them from my grandmother's farm. Since then, I've cared for cats of all ages, personalities, and temperaments, and I truly consider them part of the family. I also have experience caring for cats who need a little extra attention. In the past, I've administered medication to cats, including one of my own who suffered from allergies and would lick his stomach raw. I worked closely with him by finding creative ways to prevent overgrooming and regularly administering liquid medication with a dropper. Through these experiences, I've learned the patience, consistency, and gentle handling that some cats require. In addition to daily care, I have experience grooming cats, including nail trimming, ear cleaning, and bathing when needed. I've even leash-trained and walked cats on a harness for safe outdoor enrichment. I understand that every cat is unique, and I enjoy taking the time to learn their individual personalities, routines, and comfort levels so they can feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you're away.
“Holly was great at watching over our two cats, we recently adopted a kitten who is shy but opened up to Holly so well! She was responsive, nice, and kept our kitties company while we were away!”
“Awesome as always!! Will continue to be a repeat customer as long as she’s providing the service. Always great with my cats, they love her. She sends updates and pictures, very happy to have found her on here”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for my own two dogs, and two cats, plus growing up surrounded by family dogs, I bring genuine, lifelong pet care knowledge! As an incoming freshmen in college, I play club softball over the weekends in the summer, making pet care fit perfectly into my daily routine. During the week, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate ample time to walking and caring for pets to make sure that they pets receive the attention and exercise they need! Safety and trust are my top priorities when walking pets. I will use whatever leash or harness provided by the owner that is well-fitted to ensure control and comfort. I stay vigilant, avoiding potentially hazardous areas and always checking for traffic before crossing streets. I prioritize a calm and friendly environment, allowing pets to explore safely while providing positive reinforcement and plenty of affection. Your pets well-being is my utmost concern, and I treat them with the same care and respect as I would my own!

“Maya was very communicative and punctual for both of our visits. Our cat really seemed like he enjoyed her company and we are glad he was in good hands while out of town.”
“Haley is great! She took care of my finicky cats and was really attentive . She made sure I was comfortable with their care and I loved the pics she sent. Will def hire her again,”

About: I've been a cat fanatic since I was a little kid, reading all sorts of books on cat behavior and breed behaviors. I am always thrilled to care for a cat, while always respecting their boundaries if they're not snugglers.
“This was my 2nd time booking with Alison, I was so happy to know she was available for the time I was away again. She’s great to communicate with and always sends tons of photos during her visits 😊”
“Laura took great care of our cat while we were on vacation for ten days. She kept in regular contact with us, and our cat was in good spirits when we got home. We would definitely hire Laura again!”
“Tessa checked in on my 16-year-old kitties for a week. She is kind, responsive, flexible, and a true animal-lover. It was evident in all of the visit photos that the cats were being well-loved and having a great time playing and getting pats! Tessa even went above and beyond by leaving our home spotless after some kitty pukey incidents! Lol. We could not be more pleased with the care she provided!!”
About: I’ve fostered and owned cats and dogs since I was little. I worked at a dog daycare where I manage dogs from every size and breed! I’ve worked there for two years and have lots of experience! I work as a dog daycare attendant and a kennel technician there. I go to school at the University of Delaware and am home for the summer! I currently work a job of about 25 hours a week and sometimes will be shadowing veterinarians. My work schedule is not the same every week, but I can adjust as needed. I am trained from my job in animal handling and how to handle health challenges. I cannot do medicine unless it is already packaged in the food provided. I am a massive animal lover and am ready to give so much love & attention to the your pets!
“Jen is a responsible and responsive cat sitter. She takes good care of the cats and always makes time to play with them. She provides me with feedback about their eating and play behaviors, reassuring me that she took time to interact with them. The photos she sents show relaxed and interactive kitties. This is the second time we used her services and we have already booked her for a next time. We highly recommend Jen as a cat sitter.”

“Vignesh has been amazing at watching our dog Wolfie. The walks, adventures, and activities he does with Wolfie are perfect ways to make him happy while we’re at work all day and a HUGE improvement from him staying home alone. We are so happy we found Vignesh and Peaches!”
“Meli took such great care of my fur baby! From the moment I was in touch with Meli, I felt safe and excited about the opportunity to have Ollie spend the day with her and her pup Nina. She was warm and assuring, and very quick to respond to messages! When I met Meli in person to drop Ollie off, I was happy to find such a friendly and kind person in real life, too! She sent me photos and updates throughout the 6 hours that Ollie was with her for “day care” (without me even needing to ask!) and I could tell he was having fun and being taken care of so well! I would absolutely recommend Meli and would love to have Ollie stay with her again if we need a sitter in Bloomington. Thanks Meli! ?”

“I think our puppy Lucy officially found her second home with Dawn and her family! Knowing we needed a sitter before even bringing our puppy home, I turned to Rover and found Dawn—and I’m so glad I did. She went above and beyond from the start, even coming over with her kids to meet Lucy beforehand. She’s truly salt of the earth, and I immediately felt at ease the moment I met her. As first-time dog parents, we had plenty of questions and requests, and Dawn was so accommodating, evening keeping us updated with the sweetest photos. I loved that on our first daycare service Lucy got to socialize with her kids and even play with another dog while she was there. On top of that, my husband has a difficult work schedule, and Dawn was incredibly flexible, which made everything so much easier. Watching a hyper puppy is no small task, but Dawn handled it with such care and patience. We are so grateful to have Dawn and her family in out circle!”

About: I have had a dog since I was in the first grade, so I know how to take care of dogs and walk them to heart :) if I love anything the most, it has to be animals. I’m a dental student right now, but I have a very flexible schedule currently and have a lot of time currently. This is the perfect opportunity for me to look after your dog/cat! I will make sure the pets get everything they need. I live in a clean and somewhat spacious studio, which will be perfect for a small-medium sized dog/cat!
“I would recommend Amy & Thomas to anyone with working/guardian breeds, they are with your dogs all day and on top of everything. Dogs get access to potty breaks instantly, and get the mental enrichment they need. They are extremely welcoming, kind, and informative on how they care for your dog. I have a Doberman and if you know Dobermans, they’re a sensitive and strong breed, and very intelligent. They earned my Dobermans trust fast, and she listened for them while under their supervision. They’re educated on dog training and can handle any dog you have, very loving family to have around your pets. 11/10 care! I would book them for every occasion! :)”
“Mipha's first time at daycare after her spay, she was so excited to finally get to play with other doggies. Melissa made sure to update with plenty of pictures and videos. She was also very quick in replying to any messages/questions/requests you may have.”
“Mipha was only there for daycare but she seemed to settle well during and after the stay :). I'll definitely consider Andreana again for daycare or overnight. She is very quick in communication which I really appreciate.”
About: I grew up taking care of dogs since high school! Friends have always called me the dog whisperer. Extremely patient with dogs and worked at a dog salon as a dog bather for 4 years. I do currently have a dog of my own, Bob. He is still working on his socialization skills (very high energy/playful), so we’d love that your pup is able to be patient with him as we are teaching him calm behaviors! I’m currently working hybrid and am home for 4/5 days and will closely monitor your dogs. My partner, Dylan, works at home for all days of the week. We both work together to make sure my puppy and yours are interacting well with each other and are having a good time! I have an unfenced yard, but will always take your dog out leashed. Your dog will be a part of our family during the stay and is allowed on all furniture. My dog sleeps in his crate at night, so to be fair - I will need to have your dog sleep on the floor by our bed at night!
About: My husband and I live with our 7 and 4 yr old girls in a sidewalk lined Westborough neighborhood. In your reservation, please mention any behavioral patterns or phobias. (Does your dog take a while to do business outside? Does he or she squat several times? How long can he or she go without potty breaks? Do we have a runner?) Bring your pup, I'll bring the love and care! P.S. Please bring a crate for your dog if in the past, your dog has gotten into things and chewed. Many dog owners find themselves surprised that their dogs may exhibit destructive behavior at a sitter's house that they do not exhibit at home, like chewing and tearing things up. Your dog, in this case, will only be crated while we are out of the house. My husband works full-time, while I am home intermittently. But your baby will get lots of attention. During the weekdays, the house sits empty anywhere 3-5hrs. Your pet must be OK with that. I grew up with dogs: Scottish Terrier, Jack Russell Terrier, Rottweiler, Dachshunds, Chinese Crested, and Silky Terriers are the dogs my family members have owned and loved in my lifetime. I have no dogs of my own (anymore), but two little girls who just love and crave a dog in the house. If your dog is a no-no on little kids, this will not be a good fit for you.
“Lee was really fantastic with August. He was very communicative and sent lots of pictures and even some videos of August which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Lee if you're in the Worcester area and I will definitely be rebooting with him next time I'm in tbr stra.”
“Elizabeth was amazing with our two dogs. They were well cared for and loved all day long. She sent photos of them playing and having fun throughout the day as well. We will definitely be using her again and are so glad to have found someone we trust with our babies!”
“Melissa and her family took very good care of my pups when I needed last minute help. I was very grateful for their kindness and quick communication throughout the day. Will definitely use again when needed. Thank you!!”
“Stephanie has been a wonderful sitter. She is very communicative and responsive, always going the extra mile. Poppy gets so excited every time she gets dropped off and always leaves happy and tired. I would happily recommend Stephanie to anyone and I know Poppy is looking forward to her next visit.”
“Jayla is a wonderful sitter! She communicated very well and sent updates during the stay - our dog has some special quirks but definitely had a great time and everything went well! Would definitely recommend Jayla to care for your pet”

About: I've been around cats my entire life and currently share my home with two cats, Oscar Wilde and Dorian Gray. Growing up, cats were always part of the family. One of my most memorable experiences was helping care for a mother cat and her seven kittens after we rescued them from my grandmother's farm. Since then, I've cared for many cats with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and needs. In addition to caring for cats, I've looked after dogs for friends and family, ranging from small Yorkiepoos to large German Shepherds. My experience includes walking dogs, providing daily care, staying in owners' homes for extended periods, and taking dogs on hikes and outdoor adventures to keep them active and engaged. I believe pets thrive with a balance of affection, play, consistency, and structure. Every pet has a unique personality, and I enjoy getting to know what makes each one special while ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am currently finishing my degree and preparing to start my professional career, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. Outside of school, I help care for my nephews once a week and play volleyball a few times each week. Because my schedule is flexible, I can often accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including multiple drop-in visits throughout the day. I understand how important consistency and attention are for pets, and I'm happy to work with each client's schedule to ensure their pets receive the care, companionship, and routine they're used to while their owners are away. While I am unable to host pets in my home due to HOA restrictions, I am happy to care for pets in their own home where they can remain comfortable in a familiar environment. When house sitting, I make it a priority to follow each pet's established routine, including feeding schedules, medication needs, exercise, playtime, and any household rules. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe and secure while their owners are away. I also provide updates so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are being well cared for. In addition to pet care, I am happy to help with basic house-sitting tasks such as bringing in mail, watering plants, taking out trash, and helping maintain the home while you're away.
About: Your dog will love me! I've been around animals my whole life, growing up on a horse farm and always having a dog by my side. My current furry friend is 6months old and my previous dog was nearly 17!! I have experience with dogs of all ages! I am also available take care of bunnies too! I am very experienced with them and know that sometimes a bunny break is needed <3 From the dog park, the fields, and to the city streets I am capable of bringing your dog to their favorite spots safely. I have a dog safe car seat readily in my vehicle if trips are requested! I'm super detail-oriented and always make sure the animals I care for are healthy and happy. Growing up on a horse farm taught me a lot about animal care, from brushing and feeding to the nitty-gritty like picking hooves. Plus, I've had dogs my whole life. Your pet will be in great hands! I care for pets in my home by ensuring they're as comfortable and healthy as possible! Cleanliness is super important for a pet's health. If requested, I'd be happy to bathe or brush your pet to keep them looking and feeling their best!
“Our dog Barfee had a great time with Natalie! She’s very caring, reliable and good with communication and sending us pictures of him on their walks. Would definitely book her again!”
“Tori has been walking our 2 dogs, Apollo & Mia, for a few weeks now. She communicates well & is very accommodating. She takes great care of our pups and I know they enjoy their weekly walks with her. Would definitely recommend Tori for any dog sitting/walking needs!”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and for the past 2.5 years, I have worked at a dog shelter, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. Through this experience, I have developed strong skills in handling, walking, feeding, cleaning, monitoring behavior, and providing enrichment for dogs with a variety of needs. I am more than comfortable working with energetic puppies, shy or nervous dogs, large dogs, and senior dogs who require special attention. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and stress-free experience while giving dog owners peace of mind. I am currently home from college for the summer and have high availability throughout the week and the weekend. I am accustomed to maintaining feeding schedules, exercise routines, and providing consistent care throughout the day. I understand the importance of reliability and communication, and I work hard to ensure that each dog’s routine is followed as prescribed by the owner. Safety is my top priority when caring for dogs. My own dog who recently passed away, as well as my shelter experience, have taught me how to recognize body language, manage introductions, handle dogs safely on walks, and respond calmly in any situation. I am consistently able to carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and household routines. When caring for a dog in a client’s home, I treat both the home and the dog with the utmost respect and professionalism. I believe trust is earned through consistency, communication, and dependable care, and I strive to make every dog feel comfortable, secure, and loved.

“I know I can always count on Laura to take amazing care of my pups! She’s always on time, communicative and I know my dogs are always well cared for - I can’t recommend her enough! :)”
About: Hi there! I’ve been around animals my whole life, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. From growing up with pets to helping out friends and family with their dogs and cats, I’ve gained years of hands-on experience giving pets the love, care, and attention they deserve. I’ve also volunteered at dog daycares and animal shelters, where I learned how to handle pets of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply making sure your pet feels safe and happy while you’re away, I treat every animal like my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’m dedicated to making sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for. I am currently working part time during the week but they are not long shifts so I will have a flexible schedule to be able to watch your pets. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. On walks, I make sure leashes are secure and choose safe routes that fit your dog’s pace and energy level. During drop in visits, I’ll refresh food and water, give plenty of love and attention, and ensure everything is safe and secure before I leave.
“Logan does a great job taking care of our pets, he is extremely reliable, responsive and his communication is clear. He is also very patient and shows a real connection with our dog and our cat. Fully recommended.”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. Now I have 2 cats of my own which I adore. I love getting outside for walks any time of day and can do as long as your dog wants to! We just moved and I will not be working until a spot in daycare opens for my son. I can do daily drop-in’s and walks any day of the week. I will treat your home the way I would want a guest to treat mine and I will care for your pet like they are my own!

About: I am a Licensed Veterinary Nurse. I have been in the veterinary field for 13 years and have been licensed for 10 years. I have also been pet sitting for just as long if not longer. I have 3 cats and 2 dogs of my own. At times foster cats for a local cat rescue. My passion is caring for animals. I currently work full time as a vet nurse and I pet sit for some of my current clients. Your pets care is my top priority while you’re away. My hope is that we can find something that fits for the both of us. I look forward to meeting you and your pet 😸 I have stayed at clients homes previously watching cats and dogs. I initially try to take the time for the pet to get to know me, once they are comfortable the I’ll take them for walks (unless otherwise told) and play with them. In the past I have slept on the main floor with older pets if they can’t do stairs. I try and make giving medications fun so hiding it in snacks or turning it into a game if I can. I try to make the pets time as stress free as possible while their parents are gone.
About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my hands-on experience caring for pets every day. I help my mom care for our two dogs and also have three cats of my own, so I'm very familiar with the daily needs, routines, and personalities of both dogs and cats. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and making pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or simply giving them attention and affection, I treat every pet like they're part of the family. While I don't have professional training experience, I'm comfortable caring for pets of different ages and energy levels, including puppies who need extra patience and supervision, as well as senior pets who may require a gentler approach and more attentive care. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and nothing makes me happier than spending time with dogs and cats. My goal is to make sure every pet feels loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already help care for my family's two dogs and three cats. I'm used to feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, giving them attention, and making sure they're comfortable and happy throughout the day. Since I'm home for the summer, my schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs, including walks, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. I have plenty of availability throughout the week and can adjust my routine to meet the specific needs of each pet and their owner. My flexible schedule also means I can provide consistent care and give pets the attention they deserve. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable. I enjoy playing fetch, giving them lots of attention, and spending quality time snuggling and bonding with them. I often join my mom on long walks with our dogs, so I am comfortable exercising and caring for pets of different energy levels. I am responsible, patient, and knowledgeable about basic pet care, including feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning up after pets, and following their daily routines. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make their well-being my top priority.
“Gabriela was excellent! She was very responsive and our pup was in great hands with her! Our 7 month old puppy had a blast on her walk and we will certainly reach out to Gabriela in the future”
“Paul currently cares for our giant schnauzer who is 9 months old, before her he cared for our beloved elderly French Bulldog with walks and overnight stays. After our frenchie passed away he made a video complication of pictures when he took care of him. Paul is always consistent, timely, and thoughtful. He always sends pictures and spoils our pets. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for someone to care for their animals.”
About: I've lived with dogs my entire life. I have dog sat for numerous families over 10 years from puppies to elder dogs, no matter the size. I am a High School teacher who will be off for the summer and I will be taking graduate courses in the late afternoon. My peak availability is mornings until 2:30 during the week and from Friday to Sunday all day. I will follow any instructions from the pet owner to meet each dogs unique needs. Including exercise, quiet company or to just play with your pet!

“Absolutely fantastic experience with boarding! Vignesh took wonderful care of Mylo while I was away, sending daily updates including texts, photos, and even videos. This was my first time using Rover to board Mylo, who is a large breed (Bernese Mountain Dog). I was pleased that Mylo seemed incredibly comfortable with Vignesh and his family, and I brought him back home happy and relaxed. Highly recommend Vignesh for anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Paola took care of our blind chihuahua and extremely energetic labradoodle for 5+ days. She did an amazing job and we fully trust her taking care of our dogs. Thank you Paola!”
“Gabriel was great!! He was able to accommodate our two dogs very last minute (since our return flights were cancelled and we needed a new sitter) and then again he was very flexible to continue looking after our dogs when our flights were rescheduled multiple days later by the airlines. We appreciated the great communication and our boys were tired when we picked them up which is not an easy feat for our Australian Cattle Dog puppy! he definitely gave them lots of exercise and attention. Would definitely recommend and will be keeping his contact handy!”
“First time using Rover and Briana was great! She sent multiple photos and updates for the 2 days our dog Haley was boarding with her. Will absolutely book with her again in the future.”
“We loved Andreana so much that we decided to send Titus to her for one overnight. His experience and our experience with her was over the top wonderful. We'll be sending Titus to her anytime we need a sitter.”
“For a recent family vacation we used DogVacay for the first time. Mariann was an excellent introduction to the service. We received daily messages with images, so we always knew our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend.”
“Tamara and her entire family were EXCELLENT with Cooper!!! Cooper received A+ care while we were away! We have found our sitter and Cooper has found his home away from home. We thank you so very much!”
“Absolute gem of a sitter! Bella had a great time with Dawn and her family for two nights. They are incredibly nice caring people. They took great care of Bella and provided updates with photos throughout the stay. I recommend Dawn be everyone’s first choice!”
“Radhika was a great dog sitter for my dog Finn. Radhika could ease Finn's separation anxiety and I was very comfortable leaving Finn with her. She took Finn for walks and updated me regularly with photos. She is very responsible and reliable and will leave Finn with her in the future. Thank you Radhika!”
About: I've been a dog walker and pet sitter for 10+ years for family, friends, and clients. I have experience in veterinary medicine for 5+ years and have found a deep passion in caring for animals for my career. I'm a student so I have a variable schedule, but I am home often. I don't have a pet anymore, but it would bring me joy to treat your pet as if it were my own! I treat animals how they are used to being treated by their owners. If they need space, I give them space. If they need lots of attention, then I'm happy to provide that too!
“Melissa and her family were amazing hosts for our dog. Koe loves to be busy and this was the perfect house for him. We got lots of pictures and updates throughout the weekend and know he had a great time getting lots of activity, attention and love. We will definitely be rebooking!”
“Migle was absolutely wonderful with Zoë. She went above and beyond-carrying her up and down the stairs because Zoë couldn't manage them, sending regular photo updates, and treating her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing Zoë was so well cared for. Truly exceptional.”
“Jen and Dan were great; they responded to my inquiries promptly, and their flexibility was so helpful to my emergency trip. Their family welcome my pet, making this impromptu trip less stressful. Thank you”
