“Shuling was very attentive and kept in contact with us during Gizmo’s stay. We received several photos throughout the weekend. With Gizmo being blind, we are always concerned for her safety but Shuling set our minds at ease. Will definitely use her again when we come to Annapolis. 🥰”
“Carlie took such wonderful care of our 11 year old Golden. She and her children spoiled him with all kinds of love and attention. I felt very comfortable leaving him while we were on a week long vacation.”
“If I could give 10 stars, I would. Katelyn is very kind and helpful, in addition to being understanding of HoneyBee's blindness and separation Anxiety. I appreciate all the pictures and videos of my pup while I was away, and especially all the attention given to my pup as well as flexibility of scheduling. Would highly recommend to anyone in the area.”
“Communication with Michelle was easy. She met us at our car when we arrived and had Leia ready and out the door when we arrived to pick her up. She sent pictures each evening as well. We will use her again in the future.”
“Hester was absolutely wonderful! Sent us updates on our boy while we were out of the country and shared about all the fun he was having. Would definitely rebook and recommend!!”
“Kimberly and her family were fantastic. My dog seemed super happy during her stay. I received a photo and note every night. I will definitely be booking with them in the future.”
“Candice was great with our Bo. She sent loads of pictures (which we loved) and kept us up to date on feeding/sleeping schedules. We especially appreciated her flexibility on the pick up time. Thank you!!”
“Janice and Stalio were great hosts to our dog Diego. When Diego needed daily medicine after we made the booking they were happy to assist. They were communicative and helpful. They treated our dog like he was their own.”
“Dana took my pup Dillon for a few overnights when I went out of town recently, and he had the best time! She sent frequent photo updates of his adventures, and it was clear that she cared for him like he was her own. The fenced-in back yard was perfect for this city boy to stretch his legs! 🐾”
“Katie was great. She really put my mind at ease by sending several updates and pictures each day of Zen and because Zen gets very anxious around a lot of dogs; Katie agreed to just book Zen for the week along with her dog who Zen became friends with immediately. I will definitely be booking Katie again.”
About: I’ve always had a house full of animals growing up, from dogs and cats to reptiles and even bunnies! 🐶🐱🐰🦎 Not having pets around after moving out was definitely something to get used to. I’m so excited to be on this app because caring for animals genuinely makes me happy, and I can’t wait to meet and spoil your furry family members like they’re my own! 💖 I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend plenty of time caring for animals. I’m open to different schedules and stay lengths!! Animals have always been a big part of my life, so I care for every pet like they’re my own! 🐾 I make sure they receive lots of love, attention, playtime, and care while keeping up with their normal routines. Whether they’re staying with me or I’m visiting them at home, I want every pet to feel safe, happy, and loved.
“Yukia did a great job with Blaze!!! I could tell my pupper loved being with her and her wonderful family!!! Highly recommend!!! She constantly updated me with how Blaze was doing with pics!!”
“As a first time user of Rover and first time search for a cat sitter, Elena definitely set the standard. From the first contact, Elena was incredibly responsive, very kind, and extremely welcoming of my babies. Elena and her children took such good care of my babies, as they allowed them space to adjust while being open to their affection as they warmed up. I had peace of mind that my babies were in good hands as she invited them into her home with open arms. When I picked Pocket and Rocket up, they were so soft from freshly brushed hair and calmer to get back into the car. I would absolutely recommend Elena to take care of your cats, as they will get plenty of cuddles, play time, and freedom to explore their new space. Thank you, Elena and kids!!”
“Our Bernadoodle had a great visit with Luba and James. He was there ten days and I received frequent updates including lots of pictures and reassurances that he was doing well! We will see these folks again. I am comfortable leaving our dog with them.”
“Mady is amazing. I think our golden had more fun on his “vacation” with Mady’s family than we did on ours. This was our first time leaving our boy with anyone ?. Mady communicates flawlessly- many pictures and videos daily showing all the fun they are having. We give her our highest possible recommendation.”
“Ahhhmazing!!! Michelle will absolutely be our go to dog sitter! Oliver is still a puppy so he is high energy and still working on his potty training. This was our first time using rover and his first time away from us. Michelle took care of him above and beyond our expectations! She sent us model pictures of him daily (much better than he lets us take of him, so we have new profile pics of him, lol!) She provided daily updates with the pics too, all of which gave us complete peace of mind! We couldn’t have had a better experience and that made our vacation that much more relaxing. We are extremely thankful to Michelle for treating Oliver like her own! 😊”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our pup in Carla's home! Our dog was so well cared for, and Carla sent daily updates with pictures and videos. Her dog was incredibly sweet and got along great with ours. She did a great job balancing exercise with being mindful of our older dog's past surgeries and individual needs. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“Debra and her family were AMAZING! Super patient and understanding with all of my doggies quirks and needs! Holly loved playing with her kids! We will be staying with them again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my girl!”

About: As a pet lover and owner, I understand the level of care and security pet owners desire. I am patient with pets, understand their needs, and will give them plenty of exercise (as desired) and attention. Whether you need me to visit your pet's home or drop them off at mine, I am glad to help. If you would like me to house your pet, I have plenty of room as well as a fenced in backyard with plenty of room to run. There is also a bike trail nearby I would love to take your pet on if they enjoys walks. I currently have a small dog, but have owned other dogs before as well including a large dog, rabbits, a scorpion, and birds. I'm a quick at responding, so feel free to reach out whenever you may have a pet need. As a student, I have flexible hours and more availability than perhaps the average employee. I make it a point to take my own dog, Snickers on a walk at least once a day as well as playing fetch with her. I'd be happy to help keep your pet entertained as well. I have a comfortable home with plenty of indoor and outdoor space, and can make accomodations according to your pet's needs. I have a large basement in addition to a fenced in backyard, with plenty of room for them to run around. Have toys to provide as well to keep them entertained. I can provide a regular schedule for your pet to make sure they receive the care that works best for them. As a student, I can provide flexibility in regards to making home visits as well at providing care at my home if desired. I am just looking to help others with their pets. Please let me know any specifics or concerns you may have with what your pet may need.
“Heather took care of my two kitties and did an amazing job! She followed all the instructions for their feeding schedules and kept the litter boxes clean. I look forward to working with her in the future!”
“Mackenzie was great! She connected with our cats so well and captured their personalities in daily update photos. Mackenzie is very responsive and reliable and we will be reaching out to her again. Thanks Mackenzie!!”
“First time user and have already recommended! We loved Michelle. She was very responsive and made sure to make myself and family comfortable being away from our baby Tiger. She will definitely be Tigers home away from home whenever I’m away.”
“Alexia is a Great Pet Sitter, she helped Rako out for 9 days, with our return He was Given Food and Water, and there was no mess. I love how she took care of his pads. Great Young Lady to hire.”
“Owen was so kind, patient and helpful while we were away. He took care of everything that we asked and went above and beyond. Thank you so much! Definitely recommend working with him.”
“I’m so glad Allison was available to house sit for us and care for our two senior cats again over the holiday!!! Like last time, she is kind, communicative, and attentive to detail. We’ll definitely reach out to Allison again the next time we need care for our animals!”
“Marley was awesome. She did what she said she would do and took pictures and communicated with me during the day. Callie lover her too. Everyone should have a Marley. Will definitely call her again. TYVM Marley!”
“Leigh was very attentive with Karen! She played with her, spent time with her, wrote thorough reports on their time together, and was overall very communicative. She even left Karen a toy (which she loves, thank you!!!) Leigh went above and beyond and I would absolutely book her again.”
“Courtney did an amazing job of taking care of my cat while I was on vacation. Food, water, and litter were good to go the whole time. She even got him to come out of hiding and play around, sending multiple pictures for peace of mind. Overall 5/5, completely hassle free, if I need a pet sitter again she’ll be the first I ask.”
“Tiffany was a real trouper to come visit our 3 month old puppy. She is knowledgeable, organized and loves dogs. Communicates promptly, and is open to changing circumstances. I highly recommend her.”
“10/10, I would absolutely book with her again! She made the entire experience seamless from start to finish. Communication was excellent, everything went smoothly, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pets were in great hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Leticia did a great job taking care of my cat Madison. Madison is a loner and doesn't warm up to people but he trusted Leticia from the start. I loved the photos and videos that she forwarded to me. It gave me peace of mind to know that he was well cared for. I hope that Leticia will be available the next time I need to be away from home for an extended period of time.”
About: I’ve grown up with huskies and they are very high energy and active! I have experience with puppies as my sister adopted a chocolate lab puppy and I was over almost every week, including several different times where I watched him for a week on my own over the last year. I have also taken care of other small and large dogs and used to volunteer at Lucky Dog in D.C. where I walk ownerless dogs for free. My neighbor has relied on me to take care of her two cats for several different week-long occasions. I love playing with animals and will provide the best care because I know that our pets are our family. I work from home so I am able to watch pets during the day. I work from home Monday through Friday, so I am very flexible. I am able to let your pets out at any time of the day! I used to have a husky of my own so I know how important our “fur-babies” are to us. You can trust that I will give them the best belly rubs, treats, and take them on nice long walks. If you choose me as your pet caretaker you can guarantee your pet will get all the love and care they deserve!

“Kacie was awesome! She took great care of Queen while I was away at work. Kacie is very easy to communicate with and was extremely accommodating when my schedule was switched up at work last minute. Multiple videos were sent of their daily adventures. Kacie took Queen to the park or on a hike multiple times throughout the day. I 100% recommend Kacie if you need a dog sitter!”
“Absolutely wonderful ! Walked my dog twice .it was my first time using rover in a new state and Benjamin was a delight. I will be rebooking when I’m in the area again ! Thanks so much for taking such good care of my pup”
“Dana is our guardian angel. I am a self proclaimed helicopter mama but I felt completely at easy leaving my little girl. Maddie got to go on a field trip to the garden store and then play in the yard. She couldn’t have been happier which made me happy. We can’t wait to spend another day with Dana and her amazing husband.”
“Alex took care of Pepe like he was her own. I very much appreciate the videos, photos, and updates. She was very good at trying to bring Pepe out of his shell. I will book with Alex again!”
About: I have two cats of my own who I adore. I frequently help take care of relatives' and neighbors dogs. My own black lab recently passed and taking care of other dogs is enjoyable and therapeutic. I am a teacher and home by early afternoon . My husband is home all day and helps take care of fur babies in our home while I’m at work. I am free in the evenings and weekends to help care of your fur babies! I have a two-story home with a back yard. Typically, dogs hang out with us during the day in our family room and sleep on dog beds in my bedroom. We live in a very dog-friendly neighborhood and walk dogs during the day on leashes. We have two cats in our home who are used to having dogs in the home.
“If I could give Lindsay 10 STARS I would!!! If you're traveling to the Annapolis area and don't know who to trust with your most precious asset - your pup (this was me!) - choose Lindsay! As you can see from all of Lindsays reviews, she is amazing with animals - its in her heart - but what makes Lindsay stands apart is her responsiveness, her communication, her ability to work with your schedule. She is so kind, and loving towards your dog, that you can enjoy your time away with peace in your heart. Thank you for everything Lindsay! <3”
“Whitney is an excellent care provider for my fur baby! My girl suffers from separation anxiety and I needed someone she could hang out with when I was at work and my family was out of town. All I can say is this was the first time my baby was actually excited to leave me and stay with someone! She wagged her tail and easily went to Whittney when I dropped her off. Always came back to me happy and relaxed. Whittney was great sending me lots of pictures and she regularly took her for a walk. Plus, Whittney is so sweet herself, I want to be her friend!”
“Brittany is the seriously best! She took care of my 2 year old labradoodle, and it was clear from the photos that my dog was having the time of her life in her big backyard and welcoming environment. Thank you, Brittany!”
“Danielle was the perfect sitter for my pups! She was incredibly easy to work with, responsive, and kind. My dogs absolutely loved their time with her. When I went to pick them up they didn’t want to leave! Would highly recommend. Thank you!!!”
“Our pupper enjoyed his day stay and really got to stretch his legs in such a large yard. We received regular updates and felt at ease leaving him in such capable hands.”
“Lucy and Daniel are a great team for the best doggy daycare you could ever want/need for your dog! My dog is extremely needy and they gave him nothing but love. We look forward to next time!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life and love playing with and training them. I unfortunately lost Axel, my shepherd/husky mix, last year. But I still have Harley (technically my boyfriend's, but we've lived together 3 years now). Harley is a sweet, 4-year-old, 40 lb spayed female mystery mix who loves to play, especially with other dogs. We go for lots of walks each day and we like playing, learning and practicing tricks. She knows the basics and can also spin, place, go around you, and now we're practicing crawl. I think people could learn a lot from dogs if they paid more attention. I've started dog sitting for neighbors the past few years and always enjoy getting to know new dogs. One of my favorite dogs I've cared for is Goose, a 5-year-old male Chesapeake Bay retriever. I also work managing a restaurant in town and do graphic design part-time from home as well. I work managing a restaurant downtown in Annapolis, and also do freelance graphic design work from home. Except for Mondays, my shifts at the restaurant are all p.m. shifts so I'm home and available most days anytime before 3:00. I'm off from the restaurant on Tuesdays and Fridays. I currently have and have always had dogs so I'm very used to going for multiple walks a day. I live in an apartment downtown in Annapolis. We currently do not have a yard; however, we go for a lot of walks and still spend a lot of time outside at parks and just hanging out in front of the apartment to people (and dog) watch. I have a crate, and my dog is crate-trained, so if/when your pup is over, I'm prepared to separate them if needed.
“After just recently moving to the area, we found Alexis on Rover. She was very responsive to our messages, and took great care of our pups! Thank You Alexis!!!”
“Naya is AMAZING! My husband and I have a long commute and needed someone to take care of our pup during the way while we're at work. Before we found Naya, we were really concerned about leaving him somewhere else for so long during the day. But we really lucked out in finding Naya! Naya has her own 2 dogs and a huge backyard that our pup loves to play in! She takes him for walks, teaches him tricks, and helps us so much by training with him as well! Our pup comes home every day happy and tired, and is excited to go back in the morning. Naya is so attentive, caring, and loving to our pup and we feel so lucky that we found her!”

About: Hi! I have grown up around dogs all my life and love taking care of them. I have a dog of my own now, Loki, who is my pride and joy. Genuinely my best friend. I know it is hard finding the perfect sitter for your dog(s), but I am experienced and love to be around dogs. I have had some experience walking dogs in my old neighborhood. I really enjoyed that job and wanted to find something similar. I also love to visit my local animal shelter to just look around and potentially help if they need me to. I don’t just want to walk the dogs, but interact with them and make sure they feel comfortable. Thank you for considering me and please contact me if you have any questions! I currently have a full time job, but work from home 3 days out of the week. I am very flexible when it comes to working. I have pet sat for many of my family friends. I am always attentive to any dog/cat that I have in my home. I am putting them first and making sure they are happy throughout the day.
“Owen is reliable, kind and trustworthy. He shows up, gives my dog a good walk regardless of the weather, and responds quickly. I highly recommend him to anyone that needs a walker.”
About: I have taken care of different types of dogs and including in home stay, walks, puppies etc and had my own dog since I was 12. I have lots of experience in caring for animals from reptiles to mammals. I am very physically active and love to spend time outside so long walks and exercise is both fun for me and your pet. I am currently looking for a part time job my schedule is open for the relative future and any changes to my schedule will be minimal, I am fully available for a consistent walking or care schedule for your pet. I care for my dog with long walks, exercise/play time with his favorite toys or enrichment games. I also have a back and front yard at my house that my dog loves to play in with a park and beach access that allows dogs. When I care for bigger dogs I love to take them to the park in my neighborhood or one nearby to play fetch.
“Allison is an excellent dog walker. She is very attentive to our dog’s needs. She spends an hour to walk and play with Duke while we are at work. Allison leaves very thorough reports after each walk and communicates if any scheduling updates are needed for the week ahead. We really appreciate having Allison spend time with our dog and we would absolutely recommend her to others. Thank you.”
“We absolutely love, Alexia! She is consistently punctual and genuinely engages with our dog during his walks. What really stands out as how well she manages him, especially when he gets reactive around cars and certain dogs. Alexia took the time to do a meet and greet before our first walk, which made all the difference in ensuring everything went smoothly. We've already booked her for multiple walks and will definitely continue using her services. We feel so fortunate to have found her!”
“Heather was fantastic, responsible, punctual, and clearly great with dogs. Chance warmed up to her right away, and I appreciated the updates and photos. I will definitely book her again.”
About: I’ve had experience with small and medium size dogs for several years and also have two of my own at home so I understand how important it is to know they are well cared for. I promise to love and take care of them while their parents are away. I work hybrid so I have plenty of time to make sure your pets are cared for and walked every 2-4 hours and kept on their normal schedule. I will take good care of them and also protect your home and keep it clean. Pets will feel comfortable and safe in their home environment.
“Marley was absolutely wonderful with Fiora! The photos she sent during each walk were beautiful, and Fiora always came home happy and pleasantly worn out — which is everything you could ask for. We couldn't recommend her more highly, and she'll be our first call whenever Fiora needs her daily walk covered.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds & sizes over the years. I am comfortable with puppies through senior age. Friends, family and clients have relied on me to feed, walk, play with, clean up after, and love their pups as if they were my own. I can administer medications, including injections, and sq fluids. I can practice obedience skills during my visits as well. I’m available for pet care visits on Wednesday & Thursday mornings as well as evenings, Friday afternoon-evening, and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. I am also available on major holidays. Mondays and Tuesdays are on a case-by-case basis. I am very safety conscious and will care for your pets as carefully as I would my own. I will follow whatever your normal household routine is so that your pets feel safe and comfortable. They thrive with routines! If they use a crate, need treats after potty breaks, want belly rubs after a meal, etc., I am there for it all!
“Jacob was very responsive and he was great with my pups. He was flexible with the schedule to accommodate the needs of my pups. He was very friendly and the pups seems to look forward to seeing him. We will definitely use him again.”
About: I can’t provide you references in history of taking care of animals. What I can tell you is that I have two beautiful grown children. We have rescued animals over the last 24 years, and love them dearly as though they are part of the family. We truly love animals with our full heart, and go that extra distance to attend to their needs, and provide the love they deserve. I will provide the same love, care, and joy to your babies as I have done to ours for so many years. I am an empty nester and want to provide my love to where it’s needed and wanted. I work from home and can set own schedule. I am available seven days a week. I will stand behind my commitment to you. Responsibility is my priority. I will love and care for your pets as if they’re my own, and I will follow the rules we’ve established. I have a Pet Sitter Notes page that we can complete together, or I can send to you before my visit that will address some of these questions/ideas. Please give me a chance. I won't let you or your pet down!
About: I am a true animal lover. I think animals become our family and I want you to feel comfortable that I will treat your pet like my own went in my care. I have experience with many kinds of animals, dogs, cats, hamsters, and reptiles. I am patient and kind and love to get to know your pet. This is currently my only job, so my schedule is very flexible. I am available morning, afternoons and evenings for visits. I can help on weekdays or weekends. I first get to know your pets basic needs, ensuring their safety, and offering enrichment. This includes feeding, providing fresh water, ensuring proper elimination, creating a safe and comfortable environment, offering exercise and playtime, and attending to any medical or behavioral needs. I am comfortable with small and large dogs as well as small pets and reptiles.
About: I love animals so much(perhaps more than people...). I have experience in taking care of dogs of various sizes and temperaments. Growing up I've had a puggle, boxer, and now two german shepherd mixes who were adopted from shelters. I've volunteered at animal shelters where I walked, cleaned, brushed, and fed dogs. Furthermore, I've pet sat for neighbors and family members. My dogs live with my parents in Cascade, so I don't live with dogs nor other humans at my house in Annapolis. I would love to take care of your pets! I will be starting a program that runs from M-F 9-3:30 soon, but am available after 3:30 M-F and all day on Saturdays/Sundays. I could walk, feed, or let out your pets before 9 as well. The M-F schedule will change come the end of July which would give me more availability on those days. When I'm at my parent's house, I let my dogs out in the mornings, feed them breakfast and dinner, give them medicine, go on walks/hikes, practice tricks and obedience tasks with them, and play with them. I'm more than happy to provide these services in my client's home too!
About: I’ve always grown up in a pet loving household with multiple pets. I’ve been not only babysitting but pet/house/farm sitting since I was 12 years old. I am very comfortable in all different environments and love to walk, run, & snuggle! I’m currently a part time pediatric nurse and have fallen in love with the Annapolis area. On my off days I am very willing to accommodate all your pet needs as early/late and as many times as needed! I have cared for pets in multiple different environments. I’ve cared for pets who have a fenced in yard and others who needed to be walked on a leash. I am comfortable with whatever your preferences are.
About: Hi, I’m Stephanie and walking dogs is my favorite part of the day! I bring energy, love, and a calm presence to every walk. Whether your pup needs exercise, company, or a quick potty break, I’ve got you covered—rain or shine 🐾 I’m available from 8:00 AM–7:00 PM to let your pups out for a walk around the neighborhood or stop in for a quick drop-in visit. Happy to give your furry friends some extra love, exercise, and attention while you’re away! 🐶❤️ I provide loving, attentive care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, exercised, and given plenty of attention. I’m happy to follow feeding instructions, provide walks and playtime, and give pets the care and companionship they need while their owners are away.
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and being a proud dog owner myself, I’m dedicated to providing loving, reliable, and attentive care for every pet. From daily walks and playtime to personalized attention and specialized care, my goal is to make sure every dog feels safe, happy, and comfortable. Pet sitting fits naturally into my routine, allowing me to provide dependable care while giving pets the attention they deserve. Whether it’s walks, feeding, play sessions, or companionship, I enjoy creating a positive and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. When caring for dogs in my home or a client’s home, I focus on safety, comfort, and maintaining each pet’s normal routine. I begin by learning about their schedule, preferences, and specific needs to ensure personalized care. I provide regular exercise, enrichment, affection, and follow all feeding and medication instructions carefully. Throughout each stay, I keep owners updated with messages and photos so they always feel connected and reassured. Now that it is summer I am free mostly all of the time! I have a few vacations, and possibly other things that may come up but I will always make sure my schedule is clear! At home I let my dogs out every 2-3 hours, I feed them at the same time everyday, and make sure they have plenty of exercise! I really enjoy playing with my dogs at home as well, weather thats running around out back, playing tug-of-war, or even just going on a walk! Overall my favorite time of day with my dogs at home is bed time, my puppies sleep with me every night!
About: Besides my own dogs that I have taken care of since I was very young, I also have been relied on to take care of family and neighbor dogs. Most dogs that I have cared for have been geriatric, and I am extremely patient with them, and strong enough to even lift the larger dogs when they can’t lift themselves. Before coming to MD, I worked on a farm and interacted with dozens of dogs every day. I have never met a dog that hasn’t liked me, or one I haven’t liked. I work from home and so can easily step out for a drop-in or house sit and work from your home. I can do early morning or late evening according to need. I am unable to board your dogs. However, I am more than able to watch your dogs in your home. When in a client’s home, my philosophy is to only touch what is needed. The client’s direction and privacy is key to a good relationship, as well as my discretion.
About: With over 15 years of hands on experience caring for animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, and farm animals, I provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies who need patience and consistency to senior pets who require extra attention and gentle care. I prioritize safety, clear communication, and making sure every pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s a fun walk, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll treat them like they’re my own.
About: I’ve grown up with huskies and they are very high energy and active! I have experience with puppies as my sister adopted a chocolate lab puppy and I was over almost every week, including several different times where I watched him for a week on my own over the last year. I have also taken care of other small and large dogs and used to volunteer at Lucky Dog in D.C. where I walk ownerless dogs for free. My neighbor has relied on me to take care of her two cats for several different week-long occasions. I love playing with animals and will provide the best care because I know that our pets are our family. I work from home so I am able to watch pets during the day. I work from home Monday through Friday, so I am very flexible. I am able to let your pets out at any time of the day! I used to have a husky of my own so I know how important our “fur-babies” are to us. You can trust that I will give them the best belly rubs, treats, and take them on nice long walks. If you choose me as your pet caretaker you can guarantee your pet will get all the love and care they deserve!

Animals have always been a big part of my life, so I care for every pet like they’re my own! 🐾 I make sure they receive lots of love, attention, playtime, and care while keeping up with their normal routines. Whether they’re staying with me or I’m visiting them at home, I want every pet to feel safe, happy, and loved.
“Yukia did a great job with Blaze!!! I could tell my pupper loved being with her and her wonderful family!!! Highly recommend!!! She constantly updated me with how Blaze was doing with pics!!”
“As a first time user of Rover and first time search for a cat sitter, Elena definitely set the standard. From the first contact, Elena was incredibly responsive, very kind, and extremely welcoming of my babies. Elena and her children took such good care of my babies, as they allowed them space to adjust while being open to their affection as they warmed up. I had peace of mind that my babies were in good hands as she invited them into her home with open arms. When I picked Pocket and Rocket up, they were so soft from freshly brushed hair and calmer to get back into the car. I would absolutely recommend Elena to take care of your cats, as they will get plenty of cuddles, play time, and freedom to explore their new space. Thank you, Elena and kids!!”
“Our Bernadoodle had a great visit with Luba and James. He was there ten days and I received frequent updates including lots of pictures and reassurances that he was doing well! We will see these folks again. I am comfortable leaving our dog with them.”
“Mady is amazing. I think our golden had more fun on his “vacation” with Mady’s family than we did on ours. This was our first time leaving our boy with anyone ?. Mady communicates flawlessly- many pictures and videos daily showing all the fun they are having. We give her our highest possible recommendation.”
“Ahhhmazing!!! Michelle will absolutely be our go to dog sitter! Oliver is still a puppy so he is high energy and still working on his potty training. This was our first time using rover and his first time away from us. Michelle took care of him above and beyond our expectations! She sent us model pictures of him daily (much better than he lets us take of him, so we have new profile pics of him, lol!) She provided daily updates with the pics too, all of which gave us complete peace of mind! We couldn’t have had a better experience and that made our vacation that much more relaxing. We are extremely thankful to Michelle for treating Oliver like her own! 😊”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our pup in Carla's home! Our dog was so well cared for, and Carla sent daily updates with pictures and videos. Her dog was incredibly sweet and got along great with ours. She did a great job balancing exercise with being mindful of our older dog's past surgeries and individual needs. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her!”
“Debra and her family were AMAZING! Super patient and understanding with all of my doggies quirks and needs! Holly loved playing with her kids! We will be staying with them again. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my girl!”
“Tanya was excellent with my girl Xena. Xena takes some time to warm up to people, and Tanya was excellent making sure she was comfortable in her home while she adjusted. Tanya gave me regular photo and video updates while I was away, I had no worries, and knew she was in excellent hands. 110% would use Tanya again for boarding.”
“Jasmine was great she took amazing care of our puppy Bella! Would definitely recommend her. She sent photos and kept us up to date on how Bella was doing constantly. Bella usually shy but she warmed right up to Jasmine when we dropped her off.”
“We have had Sari watch Rusty twice now and she has done an amazing job! It was a weight off of my shoulders going into the second time because I knew he'd be well taken care of and have a great time with her. She does incredible long walks and even took him to a park on the water, which was a new experience for him! I cannot recommend Sari enough.”
“My Australian labradoodle did well at Brittany's. She usually watches other dogs and she has 3 little children so my dog got lots of exercise and love. She came exhausted. Brittany is very responsive to questions and gets back right away which was important to me. She sent pics too so I could see what my dog was up to.”
“I recently had my first booking with Peggy and the entire process from meeting her to updates throughout Starbuck's stay was exceptional. It was very easy to schedule drop off and pick up times and she was easy to reach. Starbuck was completely comfortable in her home and in her care. I am so happy I chose Peggy for Starbuck's sitter needs and will be using her services in the future!”
