“Carine and Eric took excellent care of my older Boston terrier. They kept me up to date on his activities and provided photos while we were away. I felt comfortable knowing he was in caring and capable hands. Will gladly book with them again for future care!”

“We left our dog with Brittney for a full week while we were on vacation. It was our first experience with Rover and we were beyond pleased with our experience and the care Pippa received! We will absolutely be choosing Brittney again for future dog sitting needs we have.”

“Kristen and family were fantastic with our (almost) 7 year old Goldendoodle. She shared a few pictures while we were away and it's instantly clear they treated our dog as if she had been with the family her entire life. Can't recommend enough!”

“Frank and Clarissa were amazing. They sent us pictures, let us know how our dog was doing and kept us at ease. Our dog can be a little shy when he first meets people and they made him feel like part of their family. Highly recommend!”

“Beth was great to work with. I have a high anxiety dog and it went much better than I hoped. Beth was calm and reassured me it would be fine and it was! It was nice to be able to enjoy my vacation and not spend it worrying about our dog.”

“Brandi and family is amazing ? We were invited away for the weekend last minute and Brandi was so accommodating with only one day notice. She was very communicative, sent pictures, and took great care of our 14 year old fur baby. Thanks so much, Brandi!”

“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”

“I have nothing but great things to say about our experience with Ana and her family! She was great at giving me updates and photos of how things were going for my baby Arlo! I definitely recommend them and I will be using Ana and her family whenever I need someone to take care of Arlo again!”

“Brenna was super confident about taking care of my slow to warm up dog and I felt very reassured that he would be in good hands. She was patient with him and helped him eat which he can be hesitant to do, and send lots of pictures of him lounging at her house. He was very relaxed when I picked him up! Would definitely book again and I recommend Brenna for anxious dogs.”

About: I’ve had dogs of my own over the years and have raised them from puppies, so I’m very familiar with all stages of a dog’s life from training and high-energy puppy behavior to the needs of adult and senior dogs. I’ve also personally fostered two daschund dogs for several years while a friend went through a difficult transition, caring for them full-time until she was able to find pet-friendly housing. That experience really deepened my understanding of long-term, committed pet care. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds from larger dogs like Boxers to small breeds like Boston Terriers, Dachshunds, and Yorkies. I truly love them all and adjust my care based on each dog’s personality, energy level, and needs. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just companionship, I focus on making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine since I work from home Monday–Friday, which gives me flexibility for walks, feedings, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. My availability is open, and I’m also available most weekends. At my home, I provide a safe, family-friendly environment where pets are cared for like part of the family. I have a 10-year-old girl and a 13-year-old boy, so I always ensure interactions are supervised and safe for both the pets and children. I follow each pet’s normal routine and make sure they feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while staying in my home.
“We were so happy with our choice to have Ozzy stay with Andrew and his girls. He was well taken care of and came home a happy dog. I was nervous about leaving Ozzy for so long with someone we didn't know, but Andrew talked to us on the phone a few nights before and eased our minds. He sent us photos and updates almost every day and always responded quickly to any messages I sent. We hope to use Andrew again in the future! Bonus was his dog Gunner. Ozzy loves other dogs and he and Gunner seemed to hit it off.”

“I've found my home away from home for my little buddy Bailey! He absolutely loved his time with Jana and the family. Jana is outstanding and very contentious. I'm always a little nervous leaving my little dude but now that I found Jana I have no worries. I would recommend her highly to anyone that has a little fur buddy.”

“Shelby & her family were amazing! Our pup had so much fun while we were gone, we were both on vacation! Great communication, multiple updates each day with photos/videos- this definitely helped us relax while we were gone knowing that our pup was happy and well cared for! We’d definitely recommend Shelby!”


“Our dogs always come back so calm and relaxed after being at Bethany's. This rovers communication, care taking, availability are superb! We vacation with no worries about our dogs when they are with Bethany.”

“Regina is a consummate dog lover and pro at keeping dogs happy and content! Darby loved his visit and is coming back for another! Highly recommend - great communication, care, and doggy love!”

“Thank you, Sylvia for taking care of my rescue dog, Sylvie! Sylvia was very open to work with my dog who can be reactive at times. She sent me a short daily update with photo for every day my dog was with her; she did well at Sylvia's house in the calm environment!”

“Adelaide was wonderful to work with! She cared so well for our cats and provided great feedback and pictures from her drop-in visits. She paid attention to detail, communicated well and was a top notch pet sitter! We’ll definitely book her pet sitting services again!”

“Jennifer is fantastic! She took extra good care of our 4 elderly cats with special dietary requirements and medication schedules. She brought us peace of mind while on our vacation which is very much appreciated! We have worked with her before and will surely do so again.”

About: I have experience caring for pets, especially dogs and cats, since I have had animals at home since I was a child. To me, they are not just pets, but part of the family. I have learned to take care of their daily needs such as feeding, walks, basic hygiene, and most importantly, giving them love and attention. I also understand the importance of patience, responsibility, and commitment when it comes to their well-being. Caring for pets is not just a task for me it’s something I do with love and dedication. 🐾 I currently work during the day, but I am available to care for your pets in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends. I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and responsible when you can’t be there, and I am happy to provide loving, attentive care during those times. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I will make sure your pets feel safe and cared for. 🐾 I provide personalized care depending on each pet’s needs and the service requested. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and calm environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, routines, and any special needs. Pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, walks (if needed), and affection so they feel at home and loved. In my client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I make sure they are fed on time, have fresh water, go on regular walks, get exercise, and receive companionship and care. I also keep the area clean and provide updates to owners for peace of mind. My goal is always to ensure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for, whether they are in my home or theirs.
“Desiree completed multiple drop-in visits (2x daily) during a week-long vacation for my two senior cats. Mr. Twix is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day. Desiree was happy to stop over ahead of the trip to go over insulin and daily routines. I asked for photo updates and Desiree was happy to share! She graciously cleaned one poo mess and even helped reset the fuse box when the cat fountain stopped working. Twix and Butters were calm and happy when I arrived home. I felt comfortable on my trip knowing the kids were getting love in my absence!”


“Emily took very good care of my kitty Ross! It was comforting knowing that he was in good hands while I was out of town. The communication was great and l loved the updates! I highly recommend her to other pet owners. Thank you Emily!”

“Thanks for the great service again, Regina! It's very comforting to know Dewey was in good hands while I was gone. I will absolutely use Regina again in the future!”


“Lindsey and her daughters did a fantastic job with our cat, Nova! Nova really enjoyed the extra company. Lindsey was reliable, trustworthy, and it’s the first time she hasn’t been anxious when we’ve been gone!”


About: I’ve taken care of cats ever since I could remember. I have always owned cats with my family. I currently own two cats that I take very care of. I have also helped take care of friends cats when they are away. I like to follow the rules, so if there are certain things you would like me to do, I will follow through with that.
“Rose was so kind. I’d forgotten to set up the door code for her and after failed attempts to reach me she went back later in the day once we connected. Thanks for going the extra mile.”


“Sarah was exceptional! I have a 14-year old cat with heart disease that requires medication twice a day. Leaving him is always stressful for both of us! Sarah kept in excellent communication and sent pictures and videos, and I knew my fur baby was being so well cared for, which allowed me to enjoy my vacation!! I will definitely be asking Sarah to care for Clark the next time I travel, she’s the best!”

“Bagel loved her time at Carine’s home. She had so much fun with the kids and other pups staying with them and slept good at home afterward. We got lots of pics which is so fun! Thanks for taking such great care of bagel!!!”

“Kristen and her family welcomed Oreo as if he was their own dog. I felt confident that he was getting all the attention he needed. He got some love and exercise and a much welcomed break from his new little fur brother for the day. He is a fast eater, so still eats a lunch and that wasn't an issue at all for them. I know he would be happy to go back for a visit and some playtime with the kids anytime. Thanks for taking such great care of our big boy!”

“Our dog always leaves happy from her stays with Jeremiah and his family which gives us great peace of mind. He has been so flexible and has had great communication with us on the many days we’ve had our Husky stay for doggy day-care. I highly recommend Jeremiah!”

“Joey is great! I never worry about my dog when he stays there. He was so excited to go when he did day care and would run to the door when we arrived. Definitely recommend.”

“Elizabeth cared for our Corgi and Cockapoo for two days while we were visiting the area. Our girls had so much fun with Elizabeth and her two daughters. We will absolutely book with her again.”

“Timber had a blast playing with Haley today! Sonja and Adam sent lots of great pictures and really helped to tucker my energetic pup out. We'd love to come back again :)”

“When our normal sitter for our 18 year old dog was unavailable we selected Dayjah to fill in. As our dog is old, we are very protective with him. We spike with Dayjah on the phone first. It was clear that she not only was very knowledgeable about about pet care, but even more important, she loved animals. Our dog did fantastic with Dayjah. Infact, he did not seem to want to leave when we picked him up. Dayjah has my highest recommendation in providing safe and loving care for your pet!”

“Ana and her family were absolutely amazing! It’s clear that they truly understand how important our dogs are to us. Ana’s communication was unparalleled. She sent frequent updates with photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while Oreo was with them. Oreo loved playing with their sweet pup Bailey in their securely fenced yard and soaking up all the loving pets from the whole family. It was obvious that they genuinely love dogs and treat their visitors like part of the family. I also really appreciated the chance to do a meet and greet ahead of time so Oreo and Bailey could meet and make sure they were a good play match. I would feel completely comfortable having Oreo stay with them again anytime, and I know he would be thrilled to go back. I won’t hesitate to reach out next time he needs some playtime and extra snuggles!”

“Our dogs had a wonderful time with Emily and her family. Emily was a great communicator all the way through and our boys were very well cared for and loved. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Our dog is an energetic dog that also needs some supervising and Tracy’s place was a great doggy daycare spot for his needs! She has a big fenced in yard that he can run around in, and dogs that he can play with! Would recommend”

I live in a smaller, quieter development with lots of dog-loving neighbors! I am willing to administer needed medications (oral and topical) per pet's daily protocol.
“I can't say enough about the fantastic care and love my pup received while at Kate and John's! I have a very active spaniel and playing outdoors, in a fenced in, safe environment is all I could ask for. The bonus is their kind and gentle dog that is ready to play with my pup when he arrives. I will definately book again!”

“Regina is a wonderful dog walker! We had a last-minute issue while I was recovering from foot surgery and needed someone to walk our little Coco for a few days. Thankfully, Regina was available to step in, and she has been fabulous! She is terrific with Coco, and I'm sure she is Coco's new best friend.”

“We left our dog with Brittney for a full week while we were on vacation. It was our first experience with Rover and we were beyond pleased with our experience and the care Pippa received! We will absolutely be choosing Brittney again for future dog sitting needs we have.”

“Kristen and family were fantastic with our (almost) 7 year old Goldendoodle. She shared a few pictures while we were away and it's instantly clear they treated our dog as if she had been with the family her entire life. Can't recommend enough!”

“Frank and Clarissa were amazing. They sent us pictures, let us know how our dog was doing and kept us at ease. Our dog can be a little shy when he first meets people and they made him feel like part of their family. Highly recommend!”

“Beth was great to work with. I have a high anxiety dog and it went much better than I hoped. Beth was calm and reassured me it would be fine and it was! It was nice to be able to enjoy my vacation and not spend it worrying about our dog.”

“Brandi and family is amazing ? We were invited away for the weekend last minute and Brandi was so accommodating with only one day notice. She was very communicative, sent pictures, and took great care of our 14 year old fur baby. Thanks so much, Brandi!”

“Amazing Care for Our High-Energy Doodle Puppy! We couldn't have been happier with the care Jeremiah provided for our energetic doodle puppy during his three-day stay. Finding someone who can handle a young, high-energy dog is crucial, and Jeremiah exceeded all our expectations. Their home is incredibly clean and nice, and the fenced backyard was perfect for our puppy to burn off steam safely. It was a huge bonus that they have their own sweet doodle—our guy had an absolute blast making a new friend and getting constant companionship! Communication was prompt and reassuring. We received updates and very cute pictures via text throughout the stay, which made us feel completely at ease. They took him on multiple walks and ensured he received excellent care and attention the entire time. Overall, our puppy truly enjoyed his stay, and we are totally satisfied. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and fun home for their dog!”

“I have nothing but great things to say about our experience with Ana and her family! She was great at giving me updates and photos of how things were going for my baby Arlo! I definitely recommend them and I will be using Ana and her family whenever I need someone to take care of Arlo again!”

“We were so happy with our choice to have Ozzy stay with Andrew and his girls. He was well taken care of and came home a happy dog. I was nervous about leaving Ozzy for so long with someone we didn't know, but Andrew talked to us on the phone a few nights before and eased our minds. He sent us photos and updates almost every day and always responded quickly to any messages I sent. We hope to use Andrew again in the future! Bonus was his dog Gunner. Ozzy loves other dogs and he and Gunner seemed to hit it off.”

“Shelby & her family were amazing! Our pup had so much fun while we were gone, we were both on vacation! Great communication, multiple updates each day with photos/videos- this definitely helped us relax while we were gone knowing that our pup was happy and well cared for! We’d definitely recommend Shelby!”


“Our dogs always come back so calm and relaxed after being at Bethany's. This rovers communication, care taking, availability are superb! We vacation with no worries about our dogs when they are with Bethany.”

“Regina is a consummate dog lover and pro at keeping dogs happy and content! Darby loved his visit and is coming back for another! Highly recommend - great communication, care, and doggy love!”

“Second time my Juno has stayed with Dayjah for travel and she comes home happy and well taken care of. I love that Dayjah has dogs of her own. They are so sweet with my girl and keep her busy while she's away!”

“Our dog Rio had a BLAST with Rachelle and Dan. They were very detailed oriented when it came to Rio’s special needs. They also sent the perfect amount of updates and pictures throughout the stay. Definitely will book again!”

“Kahli is part of Melissa's family! She looks happy in every picture she sends to us. We are totally comfortable leaving on vacation knowing how well-cared for Kahli will be.”

“Ann was amazing. She took care of our senior dog with some medical needs and aging and gave Louise exactly what she needed with such positive kindness. We got pictures and videos and felt like our sweet little old lady dog was truly in the best care during our trip. I will definitely use Ann again because she was incredible.”

“This is our third time booking with Steve and Diane. We will return again and again. Our puppies are so happy and calm when they return home after a visit with Steve and Diane.”
