“First time leaving our puppy overnight. Sandra was super patient and knowledgeable. Puppy bonded quickly with her kind, positive energy. She was very experienced handling our little puppy’s shyness with other dogs. Puppy came home with more confidence. Loved the photo and video updates that she sent over her stay. Highly recommend Sandra.”
“Ashley and Ryan were amazing! They are truly dog people and your dogs will have the best experience at their home. Our dogs loved running around their huge backyard with their sweet pups. If they weren’t running around outside they were lounging on the couch or one of the many dog beds available. They sent many pictures throughout our dogs stay. We felt very at ease knowing our dogs were in such good hands. Thank you Ashley and Ryan! I know our dogs can’t wait to come back!”
“Floki seemed to have had a good time with Jesse. I like that she sent so many pictures and updates. I think that my dog was in a safe environment and cared for while I was away.”
“Leo loved his time with Emily! He loved exploring her property and obviously felt comfortable with her based on his behavior when dropping him off and picking him up 🙂”
“Belle had a great time at Charlie’s! Charlie sent pictures and videos throughout Belles stay, which we loved! He has a fantastic fenced yard for running and playing. ❤️”
“John and Jess were absolutely wonderful with Jack. They sent frequent updates and adorable pictures, which really put my mind at ease. Jack seemed to have so much fun, and I could tell they were in great hands. I will definitely be using their services again!”
“We can’t say enough amazing things about Renee, she was truly our angel during a very stressful moment while we were on vacation in Florida. The place where our dog was staying unexpectedly call us and rudely demanded that we pick up our dog immediately. Being out there of state with no one nearby to help, we were completely panicked and heartbroken. My husband remember about Rover and he find Renee, she responded very quickly asking the situation and accept our booking. Without hesitation, she stepped in and went out of her way to pick up our dog for us. She was incredibly sweet, caring, and compassionate, exactly what we needed in that moment. She treated our puppy with so much love and care, like he was her own, and kept us updated and send us pictures of him smiling and acting like he is at home. We are beyond grateful for her kindness and will never forget what she did for us. Thank you, dear Renee, you are truly one of a kind!❤️🐾”
“Mandie was wonderful and helped us with a six day stay with very short notice. Communication was perfect with quick responses and frequent updates with pictures. We definitely recommend Mandie and will surely be back!”
“They really showed a lot of love to my 10lb cockapoo, I could tell when we left she really liked them. This was my first time ever using Rover and was extremely satisfied and will definitely be contacting Dorian again if I need someone to watch.”
“Awesome and lovely dog loving family. Knight had a great time. I appreciate their flexibility and accommodations when I had a delayed travel flight departure, that affected my pick-up time.”
“Melissa and her family were such a great place for Harper. She was able to spend time outside and off leash, as well as cozy up to the boys on the sofa - all of her favorite things.”
“Janelle & Joel are absolutely fantastic! This was my first time using Rover, and I am so glad I chose them. They sent pics of my pup having the time of his life! Nothing better than having the peace of mind when leaving your fur baby for a weekend! Thanks you two! Will gladly be a returning client!”
“Payten was amazing. I will definitely be using her again. It was my baby's first time being with a sitter. He is very reserved and stubborn, but he really warmed up and trusted her. That right there shows me that she is a person to be trusted. She kept me updated regularly, even sending pictures. Thank you Payten!”
“Terri was absolutely wonderful. She let us do a meet & greet before leaving my pups which really gave me peace of mind. She had a nice & clean environment. Daily reassurance of how they have been doing along with a ton of pictures and to top it of she was so kind to gift them some new toys to keep!”
“Adrienne took great care of our dog Rosie! She was very responsive and sent us daily updates, pictures and a video. Adrienne's dog Cooper and Rosie had fun playing together. We will definitely book Adrienne again. Simon and Roberta”
“Ellen is a PHENOMENAL sitter. My dog was so well taken care of on her beautiful property and had friends to play with every day! Ellen provides ample updates in the form of cute little videos so you see just how happy your pup is while you're away. Highly recommend. I've already rebooked her to watch Athena the next time we're out of town.”
“Nat and Ally and their kids were such a wonderful family and took perfect care of our husky. They understand how to take care of dogs and how to help integrate dogs that are more shy (like our husky). Nat and Ally were also very communicative and always sent updates. I could not recommend a better family for dog sitting!”
“Kacy and Justin were amazing with our fur baby! We were a bit anxious about leaving our puppy for the first time (especially for a full week), but Kacy and Justin helped ease our anxiety. They are very kind and provided daily updates with videos and photos. And they were very flexible when our flight was delayed and we were a bit late for pick-up. We would definitely recommend them and will be using them for any future dog boarding services!”
“Chris and Gerry are so nice, loving, and kind. My girls felt at ease while staying with them. It helps that they only take one client at a time. If you are looking for someone to love your babies like their own, look no further. Definitely book with Chris and Gerry!”
“Chanel was a guest with Min & Matt for a week! I got daily updates on her progress! She got lots of attention and great care! They treated her like family! She was spoiled rotten! I am so thankful I found these wonderful, kind, and caring couple! They are true animal lovers PLUS Min is a great photographer! She captured so many fantastic pictures of Chanel, I will be making reprints for my home! I am truly blessed to have found these folks I did not worry about Chanel the entire week I was gone!!’ I will use them again and again!💕💕💕”

“It was such a relief having someone as reliable as Shannon to watch our 4 cats! She sent plenty of pictures and even got in some play time during her 30 min drop-ins. Everything seemed in order when we returned home from our trip. Will be booking Shannon again!”
“Cari was great. Very punctual with all her drop ins and sent pictures. She also took the time to reach out and try to find one of our shy cats to make sure she was okay while we were gone.”
“Charlotte took wonderful care of my two cats during my vacation. It was such a a relief to come home to happy kitties! I had also asked her to take in the mail and water if there was time and she willingly assisted with that... Great experience!!”
“I've been with Rover for over a decade and have been on both sides--needing pet care and giving pet care. Deann sets a new standard for care, communication, dependability, knowledge, and being a joy to work with. She was exceptional in every definition. I will be a regular with her!”
“Leah was a great cat-sitter! Very easy to work with, she made fast-friends with our cat, sent us reassuring updates each day, even a picture of his litter box (as only a pet owner would appreciate!) We felt very good being away while knowing that she was taking care of our little bundle of furry fun. I will definitely be using Leah again in the future! Thank you Leah!!!”
“Amber did a wonderful job with our pets. The cats especially seemed to warm up to her within a day when they normally take several days to warm up to someone. Her communication was great throughout and she left our house spotless. We would definitely have Amber stay with our pets again.”
“Sarah was great with my two cats. She provided updates and pictures everyday. I appreciate her reasonable cost to do the drop in visits everyday. Sarah is also super nice and trustworthy to have in your home. Thanks Sarah.”
“Arnie is incredible! He came over a few days before my first booking to meet my 2 dogs. My senior dog warmed right up to him, and my 3 year old rescue even allowed some scratches and to be held. I was able to tell they both felt safe and secure with Arnie around. My senior needs a little extra help up and down the stairs, and I’m still working on leash confidence with the 3 year old. These things didn’t faze Arnie or stand out as a problem. He was ready to tackle them head on. This made me feel safe and secure knowing my babies would be in goods hands with him. I’m so thrilled that Arnie will be a buddy for my pups, and give me some peace of mind when I have a long work day!”
“Kylee has been so attentive with our boys (cats). She truly took the stress out of spending some time away from home while our cats enjoyed the comforts of home. We would absolutely ask her to care for our boys again!”
“Christina sent daily updates to let us know how Zoey was doing. Everything seemed to go great while we were gone and when we came home everything was in place and Zoey was a happy girl. Thanks Christina!”
“We were very pleased with Brittany. Our 5yo Kitty Amber, is a rescue, and we've had her since January. We didn't want to leave her for a week, but our plans/reservations were made over a year ago. It was obvious that Brittany loved Amber, and from the photos she sent, Amber was very. comfortable with her. Turns out Brittany and my partner knew each other when they sang in a chorus. Everything was good all-round. We would have Brittany take of Amber again.”
“Matthew came last minute for me and did a phenomenal job. I have a Cane Corso and German Shepherd and he handled both without any issues. Def will be using him again and highly recommend him.”

About: Hi, I’m Ashley! I provide attentive, reliable care for your four-legged family members. Whether your pet needs an afternoon stroll, engaging yard playtime, a gentle drop-in visit, or quiet companionship while you’re away, I ensure they feel safe, engaged, and well cared for. My Background & Experience I’ve shared my home with cats my entire life and currently care for two beloved felines of my own. Two of my family's cats were diabetic, giving me hands-on experience administering feline insulin. I understand subtle body language, strict feeding schedules, and how to help reserved pets feel at ease. When it comes to dogs, meeting neighborhood pups while out on my daily delivery routes is always the highlight of my day—I always keep treats on hand to make fast friends! My hands-on dog experience includes: Playful walks & companionship: Great with friendly, moderately active dogs who enjoy neighborhood strolls, interactive playtime (fetch or gentle tug), and backyard sniff sessions. Senior dog fostering: Fostered an older pup through the Humane Society, providing patient, medication-aware care suited to a relaxed pace. Sitting for friends & neighbors: Experienced handling reliable feeding routines, potty breaks, and check-ins. Midday flexibility: Operating as an independent courier allows me to easily accommodate midday walk breaks and playtime drop-ins during prime work hours.

Clear Communication: Photo and status updates with every visit so you know your pet is happy and secure. Grounded, Caring Energy: Attentive company for friendly dogs and a gentle, quiet presence for cats. I’d love to schedule a meet-and-greet to see if we’re a great match! I am an independent contractor and online student, which means I don't work a rigid 9-to-5 desk job. My schedule allows me to quickly adjust to your pet’s routine—whether you need regular mid-day potty breaks while you're at work, evening visits, or flexible weekend care. I focus solely on drop-in visits and walks at your home, keeping stress low for your pets. I respect your home's security, follow your exact feeding and care instructions, and practice careful door awareness so indoor cats and pups never slip out. Your pet receives my undivided care and attention.
About: I never had a dog of my own growing up, but I always had a blast watching animals for my family and friends! Taking dogs on walks and simply playing with them is so much fun. I love to be able to bond with pets and really get to know them. I’m not a professional dog trainer, however I’ve attempted to crate train and teach other simple tricks to dogs and was successful. I have experience with senior dogs as well as high energy puppies. I am able to adapt to any dogs personality to ensure they have a great time while their owner is away! Pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I am currently available full time, Monday-Sunday. I make sure to set aside time for walks, feeding, and playtime with the pets I care for. I also ensure they have regular check-ins and any necessary medication or grooming is done on time. I prioritize their needs around my other commitments, and I’m always flexible to adjust my schedule to accommodate their care. I am not currently able to have pets in my home, however I can travel to your home if dog sitting or an overnight stay is needed!
“Dominika and her daughter are very loving and kind to our shy male cat Goldie! He responds back to them with the same energy and knows them as part of his family! Thank you for all you do for us!! LK”

“Absolutely wonderful! Sandra quickly responded and was able to welcome Handsome in her home in with only a day notice. When we got home, Handsome came in and slept the evening away, thanks to Sandra and her little guy playing and running with him. ❤️”
“Tux has always been anxious when left behind, but did very well with Emily all day. She was very attentive to his needs and he got along well with her other daycare pup. She sent numerous pictures and answered my texts right away when I checked in on him. She asked permission to take him on a short ride in her car, which I granted since he loves car rides and hates being left behind. I will definitely book with her again. Thanks, Emily, for taking such great care of our boy.”
“This is the 2nd dog we entrusted Charlie with and she had a great time. She loves running and playing in the big yard with the other dogs. We will definitely be using Charlie again.”
“Nova had a great time with Renee today. Renee was responsive, shared updates throughout the day, and made scheduling very easy. She was flexible and it truly felt like she treated Nova as her own. I will definitely use Renee and her husband again.”
About: I currently have two dogs of my own, a beagle and a chihuahua. The beagle is 13 years old and starting to show her age so I’m experienced with senior dog care. I’m extremely active and my dogs usually come with me whether I’m camping, hiking, or just walking around Myersville. I work weekdays and have the weekends off for the summer. I’m part-time so my schedule is very flexible and can be adjusted to fit your needs. I’m very attentive to dogs needs as I have two of my own. I understand the importance of keeping your pet on a routine to maintain their health and sanity.
“If I could give 10 stars, I would. Heidi made Louie part of her family while he was there. She sent me pictures and videos all day of him being loved and spoiled. Fantastic communication and care.”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with more than 50 years of experience caring for pets of all kinds. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, chickens, hamsters, gerbils, and fish, giving me a deep understanding that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m reliable, patient, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I have experience administering medications and providing attentive, individualized care. My goal is to give your dog a safe, comfortable, and loving home away from home while you’re away. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and care each day. I maintain a consistent routine to make sure pets in my care are comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I enjoy spending time with animals and will provide regular interaction, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of affection. I also provide daily photo and video updates so you can stay connected and know your pet is happy and doing well. Pets staying in my home become part of the family. We have a friendly Boston Terrier and a secure fenced-in yard where dogs can enjoy safe outdoor time, play, and fresh air. I provide a calm, loving environment with attention to each dog’s individual needs, including their feeding schedule, exercise routine, medications, and comfort preferences. I keep my home safe and welcoming so your dog can relax and feel at ease while you’re away. For additional peace of mind, we live just two miles from a highly respected veterinary clinic should an emergency ever arise.
“Lejune and Michael were beyond awesome! This was my first leaving my doggie with someone other than family, and it was the best experience. I loved getting pictures of my fur baby. I would def recommend booking with them!”
“Ellen is great! She has a big heart and is an animal person through and through. We started out with a few boarding visits and now go to Ellen for day care every week. She’s very easy to work with and has a great location for dogs to run around/play/hike. Thanks Ellen!”
About: My Experience My experience caring for dogs goes back well before I started doing this full time. In high school, I walked dogs for people in my community to earn extra money, so getting paid to grab a leash and spend time with dogs is actually something I’ve come back to years later. Since then, I’ve continued gaining hands-on experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels through years of owning and caring for dogs myself. I’m comfortable with everything from a dog that wants to stop and investigate every mailbox to a large, energetic dog that genuinely needs to put some miles in. What started as a way to make money in high school has developed into something I take much more seriously today. Pet care is now my full-time focus, and I approach it professionally—learning each dog’s routine, keeping individual notes, communicating with owners, and working to build a relationship with every dog I regularly walk. I don’t just want experience walking dogs. I want experience knowing your dog—what they enjoy, what they avoid, how they communicate, and what makes them excited when I show up at the door. My Schedule & Availability: Open 24/7/365 | ASAP | rain☔️, snow❄️, or shine☀️ | hot🥵 or cold🥶 Pet care is my full-time job, so my schedule is built around the dogs I care for—not around another work schedule. I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Early mornings, afternoons, evenings, overnight, weekends, and holidays—rain, snow, or shine, hot or cold. I especially welcome recurring clients who want to make exercise a consistent part of their dog’s routine. Because this is my full-time focus, I can accommodate regular weekday walks, multiple walks per week, longer walks, high-energy dogs, and owners who work overnight or unusual schedules. I also understand that life doesn’t always happen on a schedule, which is why I accept ASAP requests whenever possible. If I receive an alert at 2:00 AM, for example, my goal is to be at your pet’s door by 4:00 AM. ASAP requests are always subject to my current schedule, location, and travel time, so immediate arrival can’t be guaranteed, but I aim to respond to ASAP requests within two hours of receiving the alert. Weather doesn’t automatically mean a canceled walk either. Rain, snow, or shine—hot or cold—I’m prepared to get outside. Dogs still need exercise, bathroom breaks, mental stimulation, and attention when the weather isn’t perfect. Safety always comes first, so extreme heat, dangerous cold, thunderstorms, ice, or other hazardous conditions may mean adjusting our distance, route, pace, or time outdoors rather than putting your dog at unnecessary risk. I also leave enough time between scheduled clients so your dog’s visit doesn’t feel rushed. Consistency is important to me, and regular walks give me the opportunity to learn your dog’s personality, routine, favorite places, preferred pace, and individual needs. Whether it’s 2 PM or 2 AM, a beautiful sunny afternoon or a snowy morning, my goal is to be someone you can depend on—and someone your dog gets excited to see because they know it’s time to go explore. Safety, Trust & Environment: Your dog’s safety will always come first, but I also believe dogs deserve to experience the world outside. Rain, snow, or shine—hot or cold—I’m prepared to get them outside and moving. I’ll always adjust our pace, distance, and route to your dog and the conditions rather than automatically canceling a walk because the weather isn’t perfect. Throughout every walk, I pay close attention to your dog’s body language, breathing, energy level, paws, traffic, other animals, and our surroundings. On hot days, that means watching pavement temperatures, prioritizing shade and water, and recognizing signs of overheating. In cold or snowy conditions, I’ll monitor their paws and comfort and follow any instructions you have for coats, boots, or other gear. Weather won’t scare me away, but unsafe conditions will change the plan. Extreme heat, severe storms, dangerous ice, or conditions that could put your dog at risk may mean a shorter outdoor walk with the remaining time devoted to safe indoor attention and stimulation. Trust matters just as much. You’re trusting me with a member of your family and, in many cases, access to your home. I’ll respect your property, follow your instructions, communicate with you, and make sure your dog is safe and secure before I leave. I also want dogs to have the opportunity to be dogs. I’ll give them time to sniff, explore, investigate their surroundings, and experience what’s happening around them instead of treating every walk like a race. Every dog is different, and I’ll learn yours. Rain, snow, or shine. Hot or cold. My goal is to become someone you trust—and someone your dog gets excited to see walking through the door.

“This was Jax's first time with Nat and Ally and it was fantastic. They kept me updated most of the day with very fun-loving photos of the other dogs playing...Jax was smiling in every photo or just chillin'. The icing on the cake was the family's son handing me a drawing of Jax's name in big beautiful letters. I will definitely be sending Jax here again! :)”
“First off, Nadia is the sweetest! She is very knowledgeable about dogs and by speaking with her you learn she has our dog’s best interest at heart. We wanted daycare on days we both worked overnight and Nadia is very flexible. This was Daisy first ever day/time away from us and we woke up to so many updates and pictures….not sure how we got so lucky.”
“Jennifer is so wonderful with our puppy Gary! Gary is so excited to rush inside to see her in the morning when we drop him off. Jennifer is great about sending pictures all day of Gary playing and walking and meeting other dogs. She is flexible about drop off and pick up times, and is super easy to work with. All in all, we couldn't ask for more in a Rover sitter!”
“Darshini & Joseph are amazing!!!! They took care of our dog as if he was their own. My dog recently lost two of his brothers and has been sad. After spending 3 days with them and their dogs & cats, our dog is much happier and playful. They kept us up to date on a daily with messages and pictures. Their home is beautiful and incredibly neighborhood. We highly recommend them for your pets’ daily care. Thank you for taking great care of Rocko. We will definitely leave our dog with them again.”

About: I LOVE DOGS!! What more can I say? I have had dogs in my family, of my own and taken care of family dogs practically since I was born. I've been around dogs of all shapes and sizes and love all of them, no matter what! I have had experience with special diets, dog walking and even diabetic dogs (using diabetic test strips and glucometer). Sometimes I like to think of myself as a dog whisperer: I can get along with all dogs and read what they need or want. I'm also great at helping dogs to heal or get over their fears! I especially love giving and receiving loves (hugs, kisses and lots of cuddles and petting)! Give me your doggie babies! :D I would love to take care of them!

“Buddy, absolutely loves walking with Corrinna. He’s always so excited to see her and go on walks. She goes above and beyond to make sure he’s happy and enjoying his walk. I don’t know what I would do without her.”
About: I'm certified in CPR emergency vet services and have watched dogs in my home for years. If you are working long hours and or regular hours and need someone to take care of your dog while you're at work, I'm the one. Sometimes when we leave our dogs alone at home while we work they can get into a lot of things. They can get bored. They can be destructive and they get very lonely. Most of the clients that I work with have a job work long hours and their dogs at times have torn their house, their furniture or whatever they can find completely up and then they have such a mess when they get home. We love our dogs. We love them more than anything and it's hard to come home like that. So if you're tired of it and need someone to help, I'm the one for you. I'm retired. I have two dogs that are so used to other dogs. They don't get out of my sight. Believe me. I have leashes harnesses beds. Anything they need? Lots of toys and lots of activity. I don't have a fenced-in yard but that's why I take small dogs and I can walk them two to three times a day. Whatever you would like to have done. They are allowed on my furniture and in bed with me if they happen to spend the night. They have full run of the household just like mine does. My two dogs are small and they love other dogs after their first initial visit. My dogs are used to other dogs in my house that are not mine and we all get along. Meet and greets are essential. I love animals of all kinds, but I find that dogs are my ones that I can handle the best. It gives the owner peace of mind knowing that their dog is with someone that will take good care of them. So if you need somebody like me just me know. We'll see what we can work out. Randomly I will be able to watch them overnight. If something happens you have to work late or the weather gets bad and you can't make it to my home. That's not a problem. I've got a big bed and lots of blankets and lots of pillows and lots of dog beds if that's where they like to sleep. 🐾 All dogs must be up to date on shots and flea and tick medicine. All dogs will be checked when they come to my house to make sure that there's no fleas. If they do have fleas then I will bathe them And let you know that they need flea and tick medicine before they return. I have plenty of references if you request. I’m retired and am home all day. I’m prepared ahead of time for hosting dogs. The reason I have a one-day notice is so I can prepare my house with anything I may need so that there is no leaving the dogs by theirself. All pets free roam my home. They get to sleep wherever they are used to. They are fed according to the pet parents instructions. All pets get two to three walks a day .Lots of potty breaks, water provided outside and of course inside. They get lots of hugs and treats if aloud by pet parents.
About: I have been around animals my whole life and want to spoil yours! I have owned cats and dogs both and take care of many of my neighbors pets all the time! I am the person who is always getting distracted and running late because I ran into a dog that needed to be pet! I am not currently working so I am free to walk and take care of your pets full time! I can easily adjust my schedule to stay overnight if needed and just visit if not! I have lots of experience walking dogs safely (my last dog was a beagle, so I know how the nose can lead a dog!) I am happy to crate your dog and keep them safe at your home and in your yard and neighborhood!
About: My Experience My experience caring for dogs goes back well before I started doing this full time. In high school, I walked dogs for people in my community to earn extra money, so getting paid to grab a leash and spend time with dogs is actually something I’ve come back to years later. Since then, I’ve continued gaining hands-on experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels through years of owning and caring for dogs myself. I’m comfortable with everything from a dog that wants to stop and investigate every mailbox to a large, energetic dog that genuinely needs to put some miles in. What started as a way to make money in high school has developed into something I take much more seriously today. Pet care is now my full-time focus, and I approach it professionally—learning each dog’s routine, keeping individual notes, communicating with owners, and working to build a relationship with every dog I regularly walk. I don’t just want experience walking dogs. I want experience knowing your dog—what they enjoy, what they avoid, how they communicate, and what makes them excited when I show up at the door. My Schedule & Availability: Open 24/7/365 | ASAP | rain☔️, snow❄️, or shine☀️ | hot🥵 or cold🥶 Pet care is my full-time job, so my schedule is built around the dogs I care for—not around another work schedule. I am available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Early mornings, afternoons, evenings, overnight, weekends, and holidays—rain, snow, or shine, hot or cold. I especially welcome recurring clients who want to make exercise a consistent part of their dog’s routine. Because this is my full-time focus, I can accommodate regular weekday walks, multiple walks per week, longer walks, high-energy dogs, and owners who work overnight or unusual schedules. I also understand that life doesn’t always happen on a schedule, which is why I accept ASAP requests whenever possible. If I receive an alert at 2:00 AM, for example, my goal is to be at your pet’s door by 4:00 AM. ASAP requests are always subject to my current schedule, location, and travel time, so immediate arrival can’t be guaranteed, but I aim to respond to ASAP requests within two hours of receiving the alert. Weather doesn’t automatically mean a canceled walk either. Rain, snow, or shine—hot or cold—I’m prepared to get outside. Dogs still need exercise, bathroom breaks, mental stimulation, and attention when the weather isn’t perfect. Safety always comes first, so extreme heat, dangerous cold, thunderstorms, ice, or other hazardous conditions may mean adjusting our distance, route, pace, or time outdoors rather than putting your dog at unnecessary risk. I also leave enough time between scheduled clients so your dog’s visit doesn’t feel rushed. Consistency is important to me, and regular walks give me the opportunity to learn your dog’s personality, routine, favorite places, preferred pace, and individual needs. Whether it’s 2 PM or 2 AM, a beautiful sunny afternoon or a snowy morning, my goal is to be someone you can depend on—and someone your dog gets excited to see because they know it’s time to go explore. Safety, Trust & Environment: Your dog’s safety will always come first, but I also believe dogs deserve to experience the world outside. Rain, snow, or shine—hot or cold—I’m prepared to get them outside and moving. I’ll always adjust our pace, distance, and route to your dog and the conditions rather than automatically canceling a walk because the weather isn’t perfect. Throughout every walk, I pay close attention to your dog’s body language, breathing, energy level, paws, traffic, other animals, and our surroundings. On hot days, that means watching pavement temperatures, prioritizing shade and water, and recognizing signs of overheating. In cold or snowy conditions, I’ll monitor their paws and comfort and follow any instructions you have for coats, boots, or other gear. Weather won’t scare me away, but unsafe conditions will change the plan. Extreme heat, severe storms, dangerous ice, or conditions that could put your dog at risk may mean a shorter outdoor walk with the remaining time devoted to safe indoor attention and stimulation. Trust matters just as much. You’re trusting me with a member of your family and, in many cases, access to your home. I’ll respect your property, follow your instructions, communicate with you, and make sure your dog is safe and secure before I leave. I also want dogs to have the opportunity to be dogs. I’ll give them time to sniff, explore, investigate their surroundings, and experience what’s happening around them instead of treating every walk like a race. Every dog is different, and I’ll learn yours. Rain, snow, or shine. Hot or cold. My goal is to become someone you trust—and someone your dog gets excited to see walking through the door.

“First time leaving our puppy overnight. Sandra was super patient and knowledgeable. Puppy bonded quickly with her kind, positive energy. She was very experienced handling our little puppy’s shyness with other dogs. Puppy came home with more confidence. Loved the photo and video updates that she sent over her stay. Highly recommend Sandra.”
“Ashley and Ryan were amazing! They are truly dog people and your dogs will have the best experience at their home. Our dogs loved running around their huge backyard with their sweet pups. If they weren’t running around outside they were lounging on the couch or one of the many dog beds available. They sent many pictures throughout our dogs stay. We felt very at ease knowing our dogs were in such good hands. Thank you Ashley and Ryan! I know our dogs can’t wait to come back!”

“We can’t say enough amazing things about Renee, she was truly our angel during a very stressful moment while we were on vacation in Florida. The place where our dog was staying unexpectedly call us and rudely demanded that we pick up our dog immediately. Being out there of state with no one nearby to help, we were completely panicked and heartbroken. My husband remember about Rover and he find Renee, she responded very quickly asking the situation and accept our booking. Without hesitation, she stepped in and went out of her way to pick up our dog for us. She was incredibly sweet, caring, and compassionate, exactly what we needed in that moment. She treated our puppy with so much love and care, like he was her own, and kept us updated and send us pictures of him smiling and acting like he is at home. We are beyond grateful for her kindness and will never forget what she did for us. Thank you, dear Renee, you are truly one of a kind!❤️🐾”

“Simply put, Jennifer is the BEST ! She went above and beyond. I knew my little dog was in the most professional, caring, safe environment. I never had to worry or have second thoughts about leaving Tilly at her place. You know when someone is genuinely a good person and Jennifer is that person. I will be contacting her for future pet sitting and recommending her to all.”

“Janelle & Joel are absolutely fantastic! This was my first time using Rover, and I am so glad I chose them. They sent pics of my pup having the time of his life! Nothing better than having the peace of mind when leaving your fur baby for a weekend! Thanks you two! Will gladly be a returning client!”

Daily reassurance of how they have been doing along with a ton of pictures and to top it of she was so kind to gift them some new toys to keep!”
“Ellen is a PHENOMENAL sitter. My dog was so well taken care of on her beautiful property and had friends to play with every day! Ellen provides ample updates in the form of cute little videos so you see just how happy your pup is while you're away. Highly recommend. I've already rebooked her to watch Athena the next time we're out of town.”
“Nat and Ally and their kids were such a wonderful family and took perfect care of our husky. They understand how to take care of dogs and how to help integrate dogs that are more shy (like our husky). Nat and Ally were also very communicative and always sent updates. I could not recommend a better family for dog sitting!”
“Kacy and Justin were amazing with our fur baby! We were a bit anxious about leaving our puppy for the first time (especially for a full week), but Kacy and Justin helped ease our anxiety. They are very kind and provided daily updates with videos and photos. And they were very flexible when our flight was delayed and we were a bit late for pick-up. We would definitely recommend them and will be using them for any future dog boarding services!”

I cannot recommend enough and we will book with her again 1000%”
“Samantha was great! I went on a 8 day trip and she made sure to give me daily updates about my dog and how he was doing and even gave him a toy he was always playing with.
