“Shakiyla was soo wonderful and helpful throughout this whole process. This was a last minute effort to find where my dog could board for a couple days and she was so flexible with me and really helpful. I’m so grateful and glad it worked out.”
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and cats my entire life and cannot remember a time I didn't love them all. My cat is no longer with me but I still have dogs and would love to care for your pets as I currently do my own. I can handle big dogs and little dogs as well as am willing to clean out your cats litterboxes. I'm happy to tussle with big dogs and take naps with lap dogs anytime! I'm a college student looking for work over the breaks and any pet time over the semester as I'll be away from my own. I'm happy to work around my class schedule to be with your pets as much as possible. I have a mostly fenced yard with the only opening being the driveway but intend to do walks and keep pets leashed just for safety. My own home has two dogs that are great with other dogs, both of them being on the smaller side and great with people as well. When I'm up at school there will be no other pets up there and the space will be fully for your pets. I'm also able to do house sitting, walks, and drop-ins for your pets to make sure your pets are getting love and attention when you're away.
“Once again, thank you so much, Felice. You and your family were so sweet with Maple while I was overseas. It was a piece of mind for us knowing that she was also having fun and was well taken cared.”
“Aida was a great sitter for my pup. She was very communicative with me and very attentive towards him. I was able to have peace of mind while on vacation as I was updated with pics and activities throughout each day I was gone. I highly recommend Aida for any of your dog sitting needs.”
“Loved loved LOVED Nicole. King’s transition was so smooth. She stayed in communication. Made us feel comfortable from the beginning to the end. King will definitely be back.”
“Our 2 year old pup seemed to have a great time at Ginnie and Steven’s! They were communicative, sent pics and updates, and the dogs all seemed happy and well cared for. They do board multiple dogs at once but we appreciated that they took care to pair dogs together with similar temperaments. Our pup loves to play and run, which not all dogs love! But it sounds like they were able to pair him with a few playmates that were up to his energy level. We hope to use them again in the future!”
“This woman was AMAZING!!! She gave updates, and pictures daily. You can tell he enjoyed her just as much as she enjoyed him. She spent actual time with him. I’m sure that I have found my person. I will only be booking with her.”
“As always, Kelly and her family were amazing. They took care of our Leo as their own and updated us several times a day with photos and notes. We were so thankful that Leo was in good hands during our out of country trip.”
“Kassandra and her little guy took amazing care of my fur baby, Jax. From the photos, I could tell he was super comfortable and happy with them. She kept me updated every day with pictures and little check-ins about how he was doing, which I really appreciated. I truly can’t thank her enough! If you’re thinking about booking or even just browsing, DO IT. You won’t regret it!”
“Robin accepted my Khloe and Kai with last min notice. She sent pics of my fur babies having a good ole time. She has great space and a lot of love.”
“Casey and Marwa were so great! After a thorough and thoughtful meet and greet, they watched my Lulu for the night while we moved. It was a great first experience leaving my pup with someone not family. They always make sure someone is home with the pups and sent lots of updates. Kevin was a total gentleman and Lulu was thrilled that he shared his favorite spots with her. Lulu can’t wait to go back in a few weeks and I can travel easy knowing she’s being taken such good care of!”
“Brittanie and Ryan were absolutely amazing! It’s hard to find people you can trust with your fur baby, but these two are serious dog people. They took Millie in as one of their own and provided her with love and me with multiple updates to put my mind at ease. I will definitely be using them in the future!”
“Jessica was great with my baby. She sent me pics. My baby looked happy from the meet and greet even when he went back 2weeks later like they never missed a bit. Jessica was attentive n lovable. Big thanks Jessica, he will be back. ❤️”
“Shannon did such a great job with our dogs this past weekend. We have been hesitant to travel because of our spoiled dogs, so we are glad to have found someone whom we absolutely trust. Will definitely rebook.”
“So kind, responded promptly, and gave great updates with pictures while Nika was staying with them. My return flight got canceled and when I asked if Nika could stay with them another night, they were so kind and accommodating. I felt a lot less stress knowing my girl was in good hands.”
“Nathalie provided a perfect home for our dog, Zola, while we were gone for 10 days. He had a built-in playmate and we got picture and video updates throughout the week to let us know he was doing well. Thanks again, Nathalie!”
“Ashley was wonderful caring for Jojo. She saw not only to feed, water and walk her, but to cater to her love of toys and running outside through her backyard. Her son was so sweet, he gave Jojo one of her favorite toys that he had introduced her to. I love the photos Ashley sent. I was comfortable leaving for a week, knowing that she was in charge. Jojo came home calm and happy.”

“Elizabeth saved my life. I had to last minute book care for my cat and she came to my rescue! She was super communicative and my cat normally hides but to my delight my cat came right out to her! I’d highly recommend Elizabeth and I will definitely want her to watch my cat in the future”
“We had a great experience with Reniko as our cat sitter! He took excellent care of our three cats while we were away and gave us peace of mind throughout the visit. Communication was timely and appropriate, with regular updates and photos that let us know everyone was doing well. Our cats seemed happy, comfortable, and well cared for when we returned home. He even got our shy one to say hello (an impressive feat)! We would happily book with him again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter.”
“Ester is amazing as always! She takes time to give each of our pets the love and attention they need. She is very respectful and helpful in caring for our kitties. Thank you!”
“Sophie was great with my cat. This was my first time using rover and she was very communicative and accommodating. She definitely went above and beyond what I expected”
“Kaitlin dropped in on our cat daily while we were away. She communicated frequently to let us know when she would be coming and sent photos. She even went back to see our cat a second time on the first day because she didn’t realize there was a check in feature. We will definitely be using Kaitlin next time!”
“I really appreciated Emily taking on Benji at the last minute. She was incredibly responsive from the start and worked to ensure she and Benji could get a long for a long weekend before accepting the job. Emily checked in with me constantly and was very flexible when we decided Benji required more of her time than we'd initially planned for. When I arrived home, I could see that Benji had been given all the love and attention i would have provided him. I am very thankful to have found Emily and plan to use her on a regular basis.?”
About: I grew up with my grandmother’s cat pepper and had the pleasure of learning how fickle our cats can be. Over the years with more cats I learned the importance to of patience and mutual trust when meeting a cat! I’ll make sure to give your cat the space it wants, whether that is a lot of it or none at all!
About: I’ve cared for cats belonging to friends, family members, and clients throughout my life, and I’ve always enjoyed spending time with felines. While I haven’t personally owned a cat, I’ve gained experience interacting with cats of different ages, personalities, and comfort levels. I understand that every cat is unique—some love attention and playtime, while others prefer a calm, respectful approach. My goal is to make sure each cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“Bito was an absolute saint with our two boys. Nothing felt rushed and Bito truly spend quality time with them while we were away. Thank you for everything.”
“I booked Janine to take care of my cat this past weekend but had some unexpected logistical issues on my end that required me to make several last-minute updates to my booking (changing check-in times, etc). Janine was patient with my modification requests and always responded quickly to my questions. I highly recommend Janine. Thank you, Janine!”
About: I've taken care of a dog in various formats since I was 14 years old. Currently I have three dogs that I have rescued and raised from various experiences where without me, they would have ended up worse off. I have extensive knowledge in pet care, wellbeing and injuries to keep a dog safe, happy and in a loving home. I've made it a point to understand dog nonverbal communication so that I can identify issues as they arise and keep my and your pets safe. My wife and I work opposite schedules most of the week meaning someone is home most of the day. I am an early riser often starting my day at 5am where I handle pet care until I leave for work around 7:30am. My wife takes over care until I return from work at 5pm and this is how our schedule runs Tuesday through Thursday. Monday and Friday we work the same shift so our pups will be unsupervised from 10am-5pm but are left in safe environments with plenty of mental stimulation and given potty breaks at 10am and extended breaks at 5pm when I arrive home. I am home all day on the weekends to take care of pet needs. I have a fenced in backyard that the dogs are free to play in all day with my other pups who are very friendly to other dogs. We have dog crates already set up in the home that are used on as needed basis and lots of mental stimulation toys like kongs, puzzles and treat dispensing toys. For my dogs they eat twice a day in the morning and night and are allowed unlimited (supervised through security cameras and frequent checks) backyard time, where there is water and a dog house to cool off. The dogs get walked on a rotating schedule throughout the week. In others homes I am sure to follow the schedule of the owner and ensure the wellbeing of your pet.
“Susan is our go to. She’s basically our pets’ god mother 🤣. Not only is she a phenomenal pet sitter with cute pics and updates.. But her knowledge of animal behavior is impeccable. 100/10 recommend her to pet sit as well as training sessions. She’s been with us since we first brought our puppy home and has made such a positive impact on her behavior. I always tell my friends/family about her!❤️”
“Zoey has been perfect for watching our cat Smudge while we were away. He is old and timid and she went out of her way to make him comfortable and take care of him. She went above and beyond with her communication and he loved her! Completely recommend!”
“Joscelyn did an excellent job looking after our 3 cats for the whole week we were away. We reached out to her last minute the day before our trip. Issues came up with the cat sitter we had already hired forcing us to look for a new cat sitter within 24 hours. Joscelyn put us at ease with her immediate response and effective and timely communication. She swung by the night before just a few hours later after reaching out to her for the first time. She understood the tasks at hand, no drama no fuzz. She communicated daily with us, sending us pictures of our 3 cats and letting us know when she came by. We really could not have asked for a better sitter. She went beyond what was expected of her. We came home to find a clean home. She swept the floors around the cat litter area which is something no other prior sitter had done before. She did all the menial extra things we asked for. We are definitely tipping her well. We highly recommend her.”
“Anna is literally the best! This is our third time booking her and we have never had anything go wrong. She’s always friendly and loving with our pets! She makes sure they have the attention they need/could ever want when we are away. 10/10 would recommend 🤟💕”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Gwynn Oak
“Kassie was absolutely wonderful! She accommodated us on super short notice after a last-minute cancellation and took amazing care of our pup who was in heat. She followed all recommendations & requests we left, and sent frequent updates and photos throughout our time away, which gave us total peace of mind. Her home is perfectly set up for pets, featuring plenty of toys, dishes, and a great fenced-in backyard for exercise. Thank you, Kassie, for making sure Shyloh was so well loved and cared for. We appreciate you so much! 🙏🏽”
“Cashadena loves Victoria and is always eager to see her! Great yard space for the pups and very helpful, non judgmental support during a really difficult time for us.”
“WOW! We emailed Shannon at the last moment because we were passing through Baltimore (on our way up to Canada) and needed a place for our dog to go for a few hours while we checked out the Aquarium. Shannon was incredibly kind and helpful, and even took our dog on a long walk through the woods to make sure he was good and tired for our long car ride that afternoon. When we pass back through, she is our first call!”
“I was happy to have someone that loves dogs and treated my baby like it was her own. I appreciated the pics and the great care Davida provided. I would highly recommend her to anyone that needs their dog taken care of in a nice and safe home. Thank you so much.”
“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous. Aaron defiantly dismissed that feeling! He took exceptional care of Rita, sent updates, and cute pictures of her! Aaron is defiantly my top sitter for future needs!!!”
“My pup, Yumi, had a great time with Melanie and her pup. It was our first time doing a daycare service with Yumi but Melanie was very attentive and sweet to my Yumi. She was also very accommodating when my schedule had to change a bit as well and i greatly appreciate that. I felt comfortable and safe leaving Mr fur baby in her hands and would definitely book again in the future.”
“Robyn was great! She was dependable, reliable, and easy to work with. We did have a slight scheduling conflict on one occasion, but sometimes life can get in the way and that is understandable. Best wishes and many successes to you, Robyn!”

About: With 15 years of pet ownership, I pride myself on being patient, reliable, and communicative. I'm a pet owner too, so I know how important it is to stick to your pet's routine and send plenty of updates so you can relax. As a graduate student, I have a very flexible schedule. My campus is only a 10-minute drive away, which means I can easily come home to check on your pet every 2-4 hours, or as often as needed. My neighborhood has plenty of green spaces and safe areas, perfect for long walks and playtime. My home features a secure, fenced-in backyard with plenty of grass, giving your pet a safe space to play and take comfortable potty breaks. I have a friendly, 5-year-old Siberian Husky who loves making new friends. For everyone's safety, he is neutered and kept completely up-to-date on all vaccinations and routine care. I also have an XL dog crate available for your dog's use if that is part of their normal routine.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 12 years, and I treat every pup like they’re part of my own family. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, sticking to a routine, or simply relaxing with company, I adapt to their personality and needs. My goal is simple: give you peace of mind while making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and genuinely excited to come back. You’ll receive regular photo updates, clear communication, and dependable care from someone who understands that pets aren’t just animals—they’re family. Clean home. Reliable care. Happy dogs. Happy humans. I work from home so my schedule is flexible, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. I also provide photo and video updates so you always know how your best friend is doing. My home features a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play in a smoke-free environment. I care for every dog based on their individual routine, personality, and needs, whether they’re an energetic puppy or a laid-back senior. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following crate-training routines, and maintaining the structure your dog is used to at home. I host only one family of pets at a time, allowing me to provide personalized attention without the stress of overcrowding. Dogs are left alone for no more than 1-2 hours a day.
“Margaret did a wonderful job watching my girl, Macy, for daycare. She sends photos, and my dog is very happy to go with her. She comes home very tired. I'm just really happy to have someone give her more attention throughout the day versus a doggy daycare company.”
About: We have watched pets for many years and take your furry friend into the family and treat them like royalty! They will be getting tons of attention & TLC. My spouse is home during the day and once our kids get home from school, your pet will enjoy even more love, playtime, and social interaction from our whole family. We offer supervision throughout the day, follow your pet’s feeding schedule, provide daily walks through our quiet neighborhood, and offer a cozy, clean indoor environment with plenty of love, play, and rest. Your pet becomes part of the family while they’re here.
“Keith did great taking care of my needy rescue dog. I could tell right away he would make sure she was comfortable and happy. He was super flexible with the hours which was awesome!”

“Bob and his son Bobby were the best! Completely reliable and capable. My dog, that I have trouble managing, was easily handled them. I am very impressed with the quality of this service and they are first on my list for the next time.”
“Wonderful dog walker and pet sitter and a true animal lover! She walked my high-energy beagle/hound twice a week for about six months and even took her running, which she loves! She sends pictures every time, which I really appreciate. And she would give my cat some snuggles and attention, too. I called on her last month to pet sit in my home for several days while I was traveling, and she was awesome. I felt great knowing the pets were getting a lot of attention while I was away, and again, the pictures! Sad to see her leave our area-- she is fantastic!”
“My Zeus is so happy with Dimitri that when he arrives he grabs his leash and refuses to let us say hi! We are extremely happy with Dimitri he is on time and communicates very well with any changes or updates. I would highly recommend him just not on my day and time.”
“Kaitlin arrived on time, took our dog out in this frosty weather and managed to get Bentley moving despite the snow and ice. She is very friendly, responsible and conscientious- I felt comfortable when I first met her and I’m very happy with the quality of her work.”
“Sophie did an amazing job with my dogs per usual and I know they gave her more trouble than they would give me. I'm forever grateful for her and trust her to care for my dogs 🐕”
About: I have over six years of experience providing dependable and compassionate care for dogs of all breeds and sizes. I visit clients homes to ensure their pets are comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. My responsibilities include: Walking dogs and providing regular exercise. Feeding dogs according to their schedules and dietary needs. Bathing dogs when requested. Brushing their teeth and assisting with basic grooming. Providing companionship, playtime, and attention to help pets feel comfortable. Monitoring each dog's well-being and notifying owners of any concerns. For drop-in visits, making sure dogs have fresh water, food, potty breaks, and everything they need before I leave. Keeping clients' homes clean and secure during every visit. I take pride in being reliable, patient, and attentive to each dog's individual needs, ensuring both pets and their owners have peace of mind. For 10 months of the year, I work full-time for BCPS assisting special needs students. During the school year, I schedule pet care visits after my workday, typically beginning around 4:00 p.m. This allows me to provide reliable evening care for pets while maintaining my full-time position. During the summer months, when school is not in session, I provide pet care full-time. This gives me the flexibility to offer morning, afternoon, evening, and overnight services as needed. Providing a safe and comfortable environment is my top priority when caring for dogs. I make sure all potential hazards, such as small objects or anything that could be harmful, are picked up and out of reach. I ensure every dog has access to fresh water at all times, stays hydrated, and receives attentive, compassionate care. I also closely monitor each pet's behavior and well-being to make sure they are happy, comfortable, and safe throughout my time with them.

I have no problem hanging out as long as needed to always have an eye on your pets when they are in my care.
“Corey sent several photos and a video for the drop in visit & walk. The dogs looked like they were having a great time. One of my dogs is high energy and reactive and Corey was comfortable handling her. Thank you Corey !”
“Susan was a BLESSING for me and my dog when we needed a last minute check-in. She was so incredibly thorough and took great care to make sure she fit our routine and connected with Birdy. I recommend Susan to absolutely anyone who’s looking for competent care, a bubbly personality, and patience with an energetic and home-defending fuzz butt!!! We loved her!”
About: I’ve been caring for my dogs for about 9 years now, and they truly are my babies!! I currently have a Siberian Husky and a German Shepherd, and we recently added a Golden Retriever to the family. I’m very used to high energy dogs, lots of playtime, long walks, mental enrichment, and cuddles :) Whether your dog is super playful, shy, or just wants extra TLC, I’ll always treat them like one of my own. I recently graduated with my bachelor's degree and am currently in the process of applying for jobs! That means I have a very flexible schedule and typically available whenever you need care. I’m happy to work around your schedule and make things as easy as possible. Your pup's safety and comfort are always my number one priority.

I’m very mindful during walks and outdoor time, always keeping dogs securely leashed and being 100% aware of our surroundings. When I’m in your home, I respect it like it’s my own space. I keep everything clean, double check doors and gates, and make sure your pup is safe before I ever step out.
About: Hi, I’m Olivia! With a background in behavioral work and trauma-informed care, I bring a uniquely calming, intuitive presence to the animals I support. I’ve spent years caring for pets in my personal life and community—everything from energetic puppies to gentle seniors—always with patience, respect, and a deep understanding of their emotional world. As a Registered Behavior Technician and Somatic Trauma-Informed Practitioner for both people and animals, I’m attuned to body language, stress signals, and what helps animals feel safe. I specialize in: -Structure, positive reinforcement, routine-building -Senior support (slow walks, mobility assistance, medication reminders, extra gentleness) -Anxious or shy pets who benefit from a calm, regulated, grounded human -Consistent routines that help pets feel secure when their humans are away My care style is warm, grounded, and attentive. I take the time to understand each animal’s personality, needs, and comfort level. Your pet will get affection, enrichment, mindful walks, and a nurturing presence, not just supervision. I’d love to care for your furry family member as if they were my own. I’m currently working part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to accommodate drop-ins, feeding schedules, and quality time with your pets. I’m available on weekends as well, and I genuinely enjoy building my days around caring for animals. Whether it’s morning check-ins, afternoon playtime, or evening wind-down visits, I can easily adjust my schedule to meet your cat’s needs and keep their routine consistent and comforting. When caring for pets, my top priority is creating a safe, comfortable, and predictable environment where they feel secure and loved. Whether in their home or mine, I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routines, and preferences so that care is tailored to their individual needs. My home is a two-level row home with a park nearby and lots of greenery, where they are free to roam. I ensure food and water are fresh, spaces are clean, and doors or gates are secure at all times. I’m attentive to subtle changes in behavior—energy levels, eating habits, or signs of stress—and will communicate promptly with the owner if anything seems off. Above all, I treat every pet like a beloved family member, and I keep owners updated with notes and photos so they feel confident and at ease while away.

Pet care is part of my everyday life. I work from home so I have a lot of flexibility! My own Rottweilers are on a consistent schedule, so it’s natural for me to fold guest pets right into that routine. Each day includes morning walks, feeding, supervised play, and crate rotations for safety, along with plenty of affection and downtime. I make safety, trust, and comfort the focus of every stay. In my home, pets enjoy a secure, spacious environment with constant supervision, plenty of enrichment, and clean, cozy areas for rest and play. Whether calm and quiet or high energy and active, your pet will be safe and secure with me!
About: I have grown up with pets in my home since I was atleast 6 years old. My career is people-centered, but I've always wanted to work with animals. My love for them is so endless! I have taken care of dogs including dachshunds, cats,fish, turtles, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, and once had a pet donkey. I grew up with friends who had farms so I have done feeding and cleaning for goats, cows, sheep, and chickens. I work full-time so during the week I am very busy; however, potential drop-ins after 5:30 pm could work for me. Depending on my schedule, I may have flexibility and this can be discussed. Weekends are more likely the best time for me to care for your fur/scale/feather baby needs. For drop-in services I will ensure your fur/scale/feather baby and residence are well cared for. This includes making sure your fur baby is fed, has water, and toileting needs are accounted for. Additionally, I will play with your fur/scale/feather baby and ensure all of your provided instructions are serviced in my time or times there.

They all get all the accommodations and love they need, whether it's cuddles or more food.

I will be available at all times. Give me a chance to make your dog's tail dance! I'll be willing to take care of the pet in your home, let me know where your pups favorite play spots are and where they should stay away from!
“After I knew the Rover from another dog owner, I haven’t used. Our very senior Lab (16 years old) recently became very weak, in walking etc, unable to leave a pet hotel as we did just half years ago. During my family away, I needed to find somebody to come to my house, taking care of her, very gentle, using towel to leave to lawn etc. While working, she sent me how her walk with Jasmine attaching photos and message. I really appreciate Victoria in very nicely taking of our family dog with affection (I could feel this from her gentle messages, even though I haven’t met her at all. My wife met her for the first time then went to travel, but I didn’t cause I’m working when she comes.). This is the first time to use Rover, and not sure about other dog walker at all. Anyway, I’m satisfied the system of Rover very efficient to find a dog walke and could fine Victoria, and was very happy to have Victoria for the first time experience.”

“Loved loved LOVED Nicole. King’s transition was so smooth. She stayed in communication. Made us feel comfortable from the beginning to the end. King will definitely be back.”
“Our 2 year old pup seemed to have a great time at Ginnie and Steven’s! They were communicative, sent pics and updates, and the dogs all seemed happy and well cared for. They do board multiple dogs at once but we appreciated that they took care to pair dogs together with similar temperaments. Our pup loves to play and run, which not all dogs love! But it sounds like they were able to pair him with a few playmates that were up to his energy level. We hope to use them again in the future!”
“Casey and Marwa were so great! After a thorough and thoughtful meet and greet, they watched my Lulu for the night while we moved. It was a great first experience leaving my pup with someone not family. They always make sure someone is home with the pups and sent lots of updates. Kevin was a total gentleman and Lulu was thrilled that he shared his favorite spots with her. Lulu can’t wait to go back in a few weeks and I can travel easy knowing she’s being taken such good care of!”
“Shannon did such a great job with our dogs this past weekend. We have been hesitant to travel because of our spoiled dogs, so we are glad to have found someone whom we absolutely trust. Will definitely rebook.”
“So kind, responded promptly, and gave great updates with pictures while Nika was staying with them. My return flight got canceled and when I asked if Nika could stay with them another night, they were so kind and accommodating. I felt a lot less stress knowing my girl was in good hands.”
“Nathalie provided a perfect home for our dog, Zola, while we were gone for 10 days. He had a built-in playmate and we got picture and video updates throughout the week to let us know he was doing well. Thanks again, Nathalie!”
“Ashley was wonderful caring for Jojo. She saw not only to feed, water and walk her, but to cater to her love of toys and running outside through her backyard. Her son was so sweet, he gave Jojo one of her favorite toys that he had introduced her to. I love the photos Ashley sent. I was comfortable leaving for a week, knowing that she was in charge. Jojo came home calm and happy.”
“Steven did an excellent job taking care of our senior pup! I didn't worry about her for a minute. I got updates with pictures and she was very happy. He was also very flexible with our pick up time when we got stuck on the highway for hours after an accident.”
“Alexis was phenomenal. My dog has a great time, I got adorable updates and wheni was unexpectedly delayed, Alexis adapted and made a stressful situation just a good amount easier”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 12 years, and I treat every pup like they’re part of my own family. Whether your dog loves long walks, playing fetch, sticking to a routine, or simply relaxing with company, I adapt to their personality and needs. My goal is simple: give you peace of mind while making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and genuinely excited to come back. You’ll receive regular photo updates, clear communication, and dependable care from someone who understands that pets aren’t just animals—they’re family. Clean home. Reliable care. Happy dogs. Happy humans. I work from home so my schedule is flexible, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. I also provide photo and video updates so you always know how your best friend is doing. My home features a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play in a smoke-free environment. I care for every dog based on their individual routine, personality, and needs, whether they’re an energetic puppy or a laid-back senior. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following crate-training routines, and maintaining the structure your dog is used to at home. I host only one family of pets at a time, allowing me to provide personalized attention without the stress of overcrowding. Dogs are left alone for no more than 1-2 hours a day.
“OMG!! What an absolutely fantastic dog sitter! I forgot everything, including dog food. So glad she was able to provide meals for my boy Max! Everything went perfectly, and my furry boy looked so happy and well cared for upon my return. I would absolutely book their services again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in search of a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter! Tae Said It!”
“Karla is an amazing dog sitter! She communicates effectively through text message and the Rover chat. Karla also takes the most amazing photos of your pet to give you that extra sense of comfort. My dog had a wonderful time in her care and will definitely be back to see her soon.”
“They were very accommodating to a last minute request! The communication was fantastic and thorough. We got a lot of great pics. Overall it was a great experience and would definitely use them again in the future.”
“Kyra is amazing, Bo was well taken care of and very happy when I picked him up. Kyra kept me up to date with pictures of Bo. I highly recommend Kyra and I will definitely be using her services again. Thanks Kyra.”
“Ruth and family made us worry that our two dogs wouldn't want to leave their vacation. Walks, children, room to play indoors and out, late nights, and lots and lots of affection. We will definitely leave them here again!”
