“Alina took great care of our dog while we were away for a few days. She sent lots of photos and updates. We would recommend her to others, and we happily use her for sitting again if we are back in the area.”
“Janelle and Bob took very good care of Maggie. She looked happy and well cared for when we picked her up. She loved running around in their fenced in yard. We will definitely trust them with Maggie again. Highly recommend.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for Riggs than Ric! He was so kind and loving towards our old dog. He had him outside a ton, gave him great walks, followed our specific food instructions perfectly, and just genuinely obviously cared about Riggs being safe and comfortable. He was also super communicative during Riggs’ whole stay, and flexible with drop off and pick up times. I highly recommend Ric!”
“We are so grateful to have found Kim to care for our dog Mochi while we were on a trip! She is accommodating, communicative and kind. We did not have to worry about leaving our dog with her and knew that Mochi would enjoy being around her dog as well. We got lots of pictures and Mochi got lots of exercise and rest too! I would not hesitate to ask Kim for her help in the future.”
“Our dog had a great time playing with their two dogs. Kate sent regular updates that made us totally comfortable that our dog Beatrice was having the time of her life. They were very responsive and flexible with drop off and pick up. Would definitely use again if I am in the area.”
“Hailey was fantastic with our pups. She sent us pictures and updates for them to help set our minds at ease. There was plenty of room outside for our dogs to run and play. When we picked up our dogs, they were happy and playful. They were very clearly well taken care of. We will definitely use Hailey again.”
“I would give Lynda 50 stars if I could. When I went to pick up my pup Maggie from Lynda at days end, I could tell she had a nice day. She was not stressed out, she was even relaxed after the day's thunderstorm and I know she always enjoys spending time with other friendly dogs. Lynda emailed and texted me throughout the day with updates on how Maggie was doing so I knew she was safe and comfortable. Lynda took time to talk to me on the morning I brought Maggie to stay with her and she made sure she had all information on her so that she could care for her well. I was extremely pleased.”
“This was the first time we've left Macey with someone other than family. Jane put us at ease when we came to meet her a few days before she assumed responsibility for our little girl. In addition, she provided updates and some photos so we could see that Macey adjusted to this environment. We couldn't have picked a better person to entrust with a dog that we love with all our heart. I highly recommend Jane to anyone needing to place a dog for boarding!”
“Hannah did such a great job with our German shepherd, I’m so glad we found her and we will definitely use her going forward! Great communication and very pleasant to deal with! Thanks so much for taking great care of our girl!”
“Grace was amazing! She was able to accommodate our dog's personality quirks and we were able to rest easy while Basil stayed with her. She was kind and attentive and gave updates on how our pup was doing. Thanks to Grace we were able to fully relax and enjoy the family wedding we were in town for! I only wish we lived closer so she could be our regular pet sitter!”
“This is the first time I have used Rover, and as well the first time my golden retriever Bella stayed overnight with someone she had never met, and in a new home other than her own. Christy is AMAZING. She was extremely responsive and helpful when I was booking her services. We were gone for several days and daily she sent me alot of wonderful pictures of Bella which reassured me she was being well taken care of. Christy took Bella on long walks in a very scenic area, gave Bella lots of love and sent me lots of pictures. Knowing Bella was with Christy make me feel so comfortable. I HIGHLY recommend Christy and will use her for all my future rover needs. She is WONDERFUL and Bella loves her!”
About: Hello! I have taken care of a large amount of different animals from reptiles, fish, cats, dogs, and more. I use to be an ACO and a zookeeper but now I'm a sahm. I worked as a veterinary technician for a few years as well. I can help with puppies and minor training activities. I can feed and water them. Give minor medications. I'm free most weekends Also free in the mornings after 830 -2and after 4pm. I have 3 kids and pick them up from school during the week. I care for my pets at home daily and treat them like they are a family member. I love animals and always have and want to be around more animals while I'm not able to work full time.
“Christina was really great with Cosmo and is experienced in dog behaviour and handling. I was nervous as Cosmo hasn't stayed in a kennel before but she handled it great and Cosmo had a great time! She was detailed in asking questions to ensure she had all the information to provide the best care for him.”
“Katie took amazing care of my puppy Asher while I was gone for the holidays. He absolutely loved her GSD and she sent regular updates/photos so I knew he was happy and well cared for. I am so relieved to have found someone like Katie to take care of my dog while I’m traveling and she’s already going to watch him on two trips I have coming up this year and hopefully many more in the future. Highly recommend!!”
“Our energetic Maddie had a great stay with Tony. We always try to board her with people that have other dogs so she can play and make friends. Tony had her alone, but still managed to get her walking and running off leash in a fenced in yard and kept her happy. He was very good about reaching out and sending pictures during her stay which is very reassuring. Not enough Rover people do that! Tony is highly recommended!”
“This is the first time we used Rover and I was a nervous dog mom for sure! One of the things that I appreciated the most was every time I emailed Leilani, she would get back to me right away. She provided pictures and updates and took great care of our senior golden and our puppy, who had just had surgery a week before his stay with her. Thank you Leilani!”
“Desirae was amazing. She fit my dog in at the last minute when another sitter flaked, then she took such good care of my boy! He was so happy there, hanging with her, and the kids, wading in the lake off their back yard. I was happy too, knowing he was safe and well cared for. Thank you, Desirae! You're a gem!”

“Liz is fantastic! she has been incredibly patient with my shy kitty. it’s obvious by her care and attention that she knows and loves animals. she is trustworthy, considerate, and communicative. She is my go to person for drop in visits.”
About: I have cared for all types of dogs big and small, and have lived, trained, and babysat dogs since i was little! I love animals, and currently have a flexible schedule to be able to care for yours. I treat them as if they are my own, and will love them with every ounce i have! I will show up in any weather, and have no problems giving medication. I have no fears of any size dog, and am usually the one found with the dog rather than people at any gathering ha! I am super careful, super thorough, and very reliable. I currently do work, but with my schedule I have a lot of time available during the day and afternoons, some nights. I am lucky in that my schedule is flexible, and can do daily visits, walks, short/long term, and potentially overnights. I am able to do overnights with your dog at my house, or happy to come to you as well. I have a big fenced in yard, and live across the street from a giant beautiful park with trails and fields to play in. I have friends who live on my street who, if ever needed, are beyond trust worthy if your pup ever needs anything. My boss also lives next door! I also live right near two other parks, and beaches. I am in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for walks as well. I grew up with dogs my whole life, so my parents are also near by. Im also close to two animal hospitals
“Jane took great care of our furr-babies. She sent some pictures, were sure they were exercised/played with and cleaned up an “accident”. Your pets are in good hands with Jane!”
“Great, consistent communication, sent photos of my Kitty daily, along with updates. My cat is very skittish around people but Sue was eventually able to pet her, which is a big win.”
“Martha did a great job of looking after my cat Osiris while I was away for the holidays. She sent daily pictures as requested for my peace of mind, reached out promptly when there were any issues, and was very understanding and accommodating when my planned pickup time got a bit wobbly due to travel issues. Will definitely be booking again the next time I need a sitter.”
“I have a very shy dog and after trying 2 other sitters he finally warmed up to Sarah! I was surprised how quickly he did take to Sarah, she has away with animals! She even spent some of her own time coming to my house to get rico comfortable wirh her b4 there 1st over nighter which I was very impressed with! I can honestly say i feel very confident leaving rico in Sarah's hands!”
“Second time we have used Jen. Could not be more pleased. Great communication, pets are happy and healthy, and she does exactly what she says she will. Thank you Jen. You release the stress of having to leave our pets.”
“Jessica was a fantastic sitter for Woody during my week long vacation. I felt very comfortable with her in charge and Woody really liked her as well. She did everything that was asked of her and she often went above and beyond. She sent pictures and kept up with my trip and even left the lights on for me when I was on my way home. I would certainly book Jessica again and highly recommend her.”
About: Cats have always been a big part of my life, and I’m very comfortable caring for all personalities—from playful to shy. I’ve raised two abandoned newborn kittens, which taught me patience and attentive, detail-oriented care. I’m experienced with feeding routines, basic medications, and keeping litter boxes clean and fresh. I focus on making sure each cat feels safe, respected, and comfortable in their own space while you’re away.
“Cassandra was wonderful with our rambunctious dog and easygoing cat. She was flexible and reliable, communicated clearly, and sent great pictures. We came home to happy animals. Would definitely book Cassandra again!”
About: I’ve owned pets my entire life and began volunteering with rescues 8 years ago. I have fostered several puppies in preparation for their new homes, and I’ve done pet care for friends, family, and neighbors for many years. If I’m not caring for other pets, I can usually be found spending time with my own dogs who are 7 and 8 years old. I work 4 days a week and would love to provide care during my 3 off days. I’m also available for some walks and drop-in visits before work in the mornings. I plan to provide the same kind of care to your animals that I do to my own. I know that pets are family and I want to make your absence a little easier for them.
“Cleo appreciated all the love and attention and I appreciated how dedicated Beth was (making sure Cleo had her meds on time as well as lots of love while I was away). She was super flexible when my plans changed and went above and beyond to look out for Cleo.”

“This was the first time Jaxon stayed with Alina and family for daycare. We usually leave him for a day or too. We had a great time skiing and Jaxon had a great time with Alina! So glad we have a go to place for Jaxon in the Whites!”
“Kim is the absolute best. We've tired a few sitters for our Abbi (Golden Retriever) before finding Kim. No need to look any further. Leaving Abbi with Kim was like having an experienced, dog loving family member watch her. Kim sent pictures and updates throughout Abbi's stay. I highly recommend Kim and will definitely book her again.”

“I am very happy to have left kiko with Suzanne and family. They took him to park as well to play and he got along well with their dog. Would definitely leave kiko with Suzanne and family again !”
“Jane is an outstanding dog sitter and person. We had schedule issues trying to accommodate a big family making us late. She was understanding and kind. This was the first time Rio was ever left with someone outside our family so were nervous. She gently greeted Rio, let him in her home with no hesitation like it was his own. We are so thankful for the exceptional care and attention she gave Rio. We are looking forward to more bookings with Jane.”
“Jen was amazing in every way! She sent us regular updates and took great care of our pup while we were hiking for the day. We are excited to have our dog stay with her again!”
“My little Maggie had a good time and made 2 new 4 footed friends!! When I dropped her off, she followed Katy as if she already knew her. She certainly likes dogs, we feel it and the dogs too!!”
About: I have had a dog at least 20 years. We occasionally have a Labrador a week at a time, he has full run of the house. I do not work, so I am home most of the time. I do local Arts Markets, but those aren't long days. A dog would get lots of attention. I have a fenced in back yard that has plenty of room for playing. The house is one floor, which would be easier on older dogs.
About: Hi! My name is Steve I’ve owned dogs my whole life and absolutely adore them. My current best friend is a adopted lab-mix named Dory. She gets along great with all dogs. I’ve also owned Westies and a Sheltie for a combined experience of about 25 years of caring for dogs. I have a fenced in yard and provide potty breaks every two hours. I can administer any medication your dog needs. I’m sure your dog would love to join us. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! I work from home five days a week so I can care for you pet during work days from 6am to 7pm. I walk the dogs during lunch time for 30min. I care for pets by making sure they can go out as often as needed and take them for a daily 30min walk. I can administer non-injectable medicine as needed too.
“Soleil had a nice time at Hailey’s home! She offered doggy day care services and was very caring and communicative as a host. She had a very sweet dog named Misty who was also welcoming and got along well with my pup. Lovely property with plenty of space for dogs to roam.”
About: I am very attentive and enjoy playing with them. I will treat every animal if it were my own. I also continue my education on dog care so to provide the best experience for your dog. To add..I am also experienced with cats as well. I feel I am a responsible person that would make sure all my clients and their pets needs are met. I also respond to phone messages and emails promply to make sure you concerns are addressed as soon as possible. I also make sure Pictures and videos are sent throughout the stay to Mom and or Dad. I can give potty breaks as much as needed as well as walk or just play with to fit the needs of your furr baby. I am very attentive to your pet. Love playing with and walking them as well as just chilling on the couch with them. I am also very attentive to their feeding needs and will follow strict instructions of owner.
“Christy was so great and caring with Louie! It was truly a worry-free time for us when we had an event that didn’t accommodate dogs. Next time we’re in the area, we would have no hesitation to call on Christy again!”
“Briana accepted our Daisy on short notice and on a holiday weekend. Daisy had such a good day that I don't think she wanted to leave when we came to pick her up! I would highly recommend her services.”
“She had the flexible schedule we needed, since we weren’t sure on what time frame we needed her for! Our dog loved her on first sight and seemed comfortable there. We were puzzled that she used a photo of our dog from a previous card of another sitter. But did get one current photo. Thank you!”
“Hannah was excellent. She responded to me quickly—very important when you have left your search til the last day. She was clear, always very nice, calming, and she checked to be sure that my dog, Frances, had a temperament which did not object to the presence of her, evidently mellow, two dogs and one cat—she was just very good at customer service. I felt very secure with my dog staying in her (and her husband’s) care. She (and they) obviously knows and cares for dogs. I had useful feedback from the visit (my dog was fine with her cat—(and dogs)—though she has had very little exposure to cats—so it appears vibes are what count with Frances. ) Hannah was friendly even when I changed my time plans on the actual day, oh-so-gently informing me she would definitely modify whenever she could, but she was dealing as well with other customers’ sometimes conflicting schedules. She was very good!”
About: I have always had dogs but am currently without one after my 16-year-old golden retriever passed away. I am comfortable working with dogs of all ages, and understand how their needs, routines and personalities change throughout their lives. I live in a quiet community with beach access a short walk away. If you have a pup that loves to swim, go on adventures or walks, or simply spend time outside, I would be a great fit. While your away, you can be sure they too are enjoying a mini vacation. I can work from home so your dog will not be lonely during the day. There are some days I may not be home all day, but I will be sure to give them plenty of exercise with time to run, play or swim in the mornings, afternoons and evenings. I also have a life jacket for those dogs who are not strong swimmers or who may want a little extra support in the water. I've not crated any of my dogs, but if you are more comfortable with crating, I can accommodate that if you bring yours. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I do have a small side yard, access to trails and a beach so they will get plenty of time outside.
About: I’ve owned and worked with dogs my whole life. I am the owner of a grooming salon and have worked in dog daycares as well as an animal hospital. We will treat your pups like our own! 🥰 We like to stick with what they are used to at home. Sleep on the bed? No prob! Snuggle on the couch? You got it! But if you have rules you are working on we are happy to help with those too. We have a large fenced in yard but the snow is high right now. So to be safe we are only taking dogs under 30 lbs. I have always specialized in senior dog care so if you have e an older buddy they are in good hands! ♥️Can’t wait to meet your pups! Also, we have 2 small dogs so yours must be ok with other pups. My husband and I both work from home so it’s easy for us to give the pups attention and care all day. Together we have plenty of time for walks, play, and snuggles! I have a large fenced in yard, but if you prefer walks that’s totally doable. I also have a Chinese crested mix and a Schnoodle who are very used to new dogs in the home. We also have baby chicks in the house until spring but they are in enclosures. In case your pup has a high prey drive, they can be moved to a safer area. 😆

About: I've been a special needs dog owner, am honored to be loved by my partner's parrot, as well as taken care of other dogs, cats, rabbits, geese, goats, and am a horse person. I can throw hay, if given proper instructions can put together the morning grain. I love taking care of bonded pairs of house rabbits, as well as curling up with a doggo or a kitty. If I'm doing in home, I tend to first feed the pet(s) in the morning, before I get myself breakfast, and the same for dinner. If drop in is needed, I'll be there morning, & evening, potentially mid day as well. I tend to sit for new clients in their home, depending upon established client I may sit in my house for well behaved dogs. If at my house, your dog will never be outside without some sort of leash, whether it's a 6' or a 50' long line, as I have a not fenced in yard, with a well traveled road at the end of my driveway.
“Michele was absolutely wonderful! She was able to come walk our dog on very short notice. She took a lot of care to make sure our puppy had what she needed and was on time. She was a great communicator and we would gladly hire her again :)”
About: With 20 years of experience caring for dogs, including senior dogs, I provide a warm and loving environment right from my home. I can expertly administer any needed medication, so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in great hands. Let’s keep your pup, no matter their age, happy and healthy together! I live on 5 acres of land, and pet care is an important part of my daily routine. I start each day by feeding and walking my pets, allowing them space to explore. Since I work from home, I can spend quality time with them, playing and training throughout the day. I check on their health regularly, which includes grooming and giving any needed medication. On weekends, I take them on adventures around our land. Pet care brings joy and structure to my life! I care for pets in both my home and my clients' homes by providing a safe and loving environment. In my home, I have a friendly 18-year-old Australian Shepherd who helps create a welcoming atmosphere for other pets. I ensure they have plenty of space to play and explore, while also maintaining a clean and comfortable area for resting. I follow their routines closely, including feeding times, walks, and play sessions. At a client's home, I respect their space and follow any specific instructions or routines the pet is used to. I make sure the environment is safe by removing any hazards. I also give them regular check-ins to ensure they are happy and healthy, and I am always available for cuddles and attention!
About: I like dogs and cats. Doesn’t matter what I watch but cats are easier for sure! I live in Weirs Beach where many peopke walk their dogs. My house is a perfect location for me to watch your pet if you go to a concert at Bank of NH Pavillion or go on the Mt Washington cruise ship or Train ride! Open for anything since I’m retired and have the time now. Prefer to watch pets in my own home but will watch in yours if your more comfortable I don’t have fenced in yard. I would need to walk dogs on leash or keep cats inside. I do have yard for dogs to wander around as long as they are tethered and I’m watching them
About: Your dog will stay in a calm, family home — not a kennel. I have gentle, respectful children who are very comfortable around dogs, creating a warm, home-style environment with plenty of natural companionship. For safety reasons, all dogs must be friendly with children. I want every dog to stay happy and healthy! Please make sure your pup is up-to-date on RABIES VACCINATION and PROTECTED AGAINST FLEAS. You’ll receive daily updates with at least 4 photos (and often videos as well), so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and well cared for. I have extensive experience with dogs of various breeds and temperaments and focus on individualized, high-quality care — from medications and senior support to extra playtime and affection. In good weather, dogs enjoy several hours outside for fresh air, play, and enrichment. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I have plenty of time to provide attentive, hands-on care throughout the day. Our day usually starts around 7:00 am. The last potty break is typically around 9:00 pm, unless a dog needs or asks to go out later. Dogs are fed according to their usual routine. After meals, they always go outside, followed by backyard playtime. I try to keep each dog’s normal schedule as consistent as possible to help them feel comfortable and settled. I’m home most of the day, so dogs are never left alone for too long (no longer than 2 hours) Potty breaks are provided every 2–3 hours (or more often if needed). All dogs must be fully potty trained! Accidents happen and it's ok. BUT if a dog marks excessively, has repeated accidents, there's a $100 fee. We live in a quiet neighborhood with a non-fenced yard. When weather allows, we spend a lot of time outdoors. The yard is set up for dogs to enjoy safely — we have plenty of toys, a wading pool in warm weather, and a long tie-out cable for dogs. Dogs are never left alone outside. If your dog is crate trained and if you want to, you dog can sleep in a crate- you may bring your own. If your dog is not crate trained or if you don't want your dog to sleep in a crate and instead sleep in its own bed/couch/floor- they are more than welcome to do so! But you will be responsible for damages if any occur!(dogs may act differently in a new environment). A minimum damage fee is $100 Again, because this is not a kennel,this is a family home!
About: Your furry friend deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve a new best friend! 🐾 I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a calm, cozy routine, I tailor my care to match their personality and needs. I provide loving, reliable care that keeps tails wagging and owners worry-free. From playtime to cuddles, your furry friend will feel right at home while you’re away. I’m attentive to details like feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions you provide. You can expect regular updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is in good hands. I work part time at dunks which makes my schedule flexible so that allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. I am typically available mornings, evenings, and weekends, with additional availability on select weekdays depending on prior bookings. I plan my schedule to ensure each pet receives consistent attention, timely feedings, walks, and companionship. For pets requiring multiple visits per day, I can accommodate early morning, midday, and evening check-ins when arranged in advance. Because I work part-time, I am able to dedicate focused, unrushed time to each visit, making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and well looked after. I always communicate availability clearly and provide updates to ensure smooth scheduling and peace of mind for pet owners. My grandfather, Sid Lovett, was instrumental in my decision to make a career out of caring for animals. Safety and well-being are my top priorities. I monitor pets for any changes in behavior or health and communicate updates regularly, including photos and messages for peace of mind. I also ensure the home remains secure and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner. My goal is to make each pet feel comfortable and cared for, just as they would with their family.
“Ashley is so caring and thoughtful! She wants me and my dog to be comfortable, and really understands animals and thier needs. I feel very safe having my dog be taken care of by her! Thank you Ashley!”
About: I have over 10 years experience with sitting cats, dogs and other small animals. Most of my pet-sitting clients are repeat families I’ve connected with through the local community. I have experience with extended in-home pet sitting, including overseeing household upkeep while clients are away. I am comfortable administering any oral medications needed, with provided instructions and tips. I love keeping you updated with photos and videos while you’re away and making sure your pet is happy, relaxed, and thriving! I have a flexible work schedule to be able to stay with your pets, or visit a number of times through out the day, to help accommodate your needs. I have experience in others homes where the pets feel most comfortable, and usually have a routine I can help maintain while your away! I also will attend to any other home chores like house plants, small pets like fish, or any problems that arise I will be sure you are aware right away.
“Jennifer was amazing! She did a great job communicating with us. Our last night away, a tree fell across our street knocking down power lines and blocking her way. She went above and beyond making it through to care for our animals!”
About: I have dropped in for large dog care. I have stayed in a house watching 3 small dogs. I personally had a lab growing up. I have taken care of a large dog and small dog and stayed at their home. I personally have a cat and I love all animals. I would be great as someone who can walk dogs early in the morning or in the evening and I have some availability throughout the day as well. I have a flexible schedule and work remote so I can work around my schedule. I want to make sure all the pets I care for are comfortable. Access to clean fresh water for all pets is a must. I love to play with dogs and cats whether that be toys or lasers. I love going on walks and making sure dogs have proper exercise. I would follow all instructions left for me diligently.
About: I have been caring for animals basically my entire life. It's not unusual for me to spend two weeks at a clients home to watch their dogs while they are on the road, vacation etc. I have experience with my own animals as well. I've raised many types of animals including but not limited to dogs,cats, reptiles, farm animals, etc. I was the person that fed them, walked them, provided comfort and performed any other necessary tasks needed in order to make sure the animals needs are met. Currently I have a very open schedule. My schedule is open to play, watch, feed, walk or whatever you need me to do. Occasionally I have a meeting or appointment other than that I am free. I will make sure your pet is safe while in my care whether it be on a walk or playing outside and I will supervise your pet around any other animals.

“Alina took great care of our dog while we were away for a few days. She sent lots of photos and updates. We would recommend her to others, and we happily use her for sitting again if we are back in the area.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for Riggs than Ric! He was so kind and loving towards our old dog. He had him outside a ton, gave him great walks, followed our specific food instructions perfectly, and just genuinely obviously cared about Riggs being safe and comfortable. He was also super communicative during Riggs’ whole stay, and flexible with drop off and pick up times. I highly recommend Ric!”
“We are so grateful to have found Kim to care for our dog Mochi while we were on a trip! She is accommodating, communicative and kind. We did not have to worry about leaving our dog with her and knew that Mochi would enjoy being around her dog as well. We got lots of pictures and Mochi got lots of exercise and rest too! I would not hesitate to ask Kim for her help in the future.”

“Hailey was fantastic with our pups. She sent us pictures and updates for them to help set our minds at ease. There was plenty of room outside for our dogs to run and play.

“Hannah did such a great job with our German shepherd, I’m so glad we found her and we will definitely use her going forward! Great communication and very pleasant to deal with! Thanks so much for taking great care of our girl!”
“Grace was amazing! She was able to accommodate our dog's personality quirks and we were able to rest easy while Basil stayed with her. She was kind and attentive and gave updates on how our pup was doing. Thanks to Grace we were able to fully relax and enjoy the family wedding we were in town for! I only wish we lived closer so she could be our regular pet sitter!”
“This is the first time I have used Rover, and as well the first time my golden retriever Bella stayed overnight with someone she had never met, and in a new home other than her own. Christy is AMAZING. She was extremely responsive and helpful when I was booking her services. We were gone for several days and daily she sent me alot of wonderful pictures of Bella which reassured me she was being well taken care of. Christy took Bella on long walks in a very scenic area, gave Bella lots of love and sent me lots of pictures. Knowing Bella was with Christy make me feel so comfortable. I HIGHLY recommend Christy and will use her for all my future rover needs. She is WONDERFUL and Bella loves her!”
“Christina was really great with Cosmo and is experienced in dog behaviour and handling. I was nervous as Cosmo hasn't stayed in a kennel before but she handled it great and Cosmo had a great time! She was detailed in asking questions to ensure she had all the information to provide the best care for him.”
“Katie took amazing care of my puppy Asher while I was gone for the holidays. He absolutely loved her GSD and she sent regular updates/photos so I knew he was happy and well cared for. I am so relieved to have found someone like Katie to take care of my dog while I’m traveling and she’s already going to watch him on two trips I have coming up this year and hopefully many more in the future. Highly recommend!!”
“Our energetic Maddie had a great stay with Tony. We always try to board her with people that have other dogs so she can play and make friends. Tony had her alone, but still managed to get her walking and running off leash in a fenced in yard and kept her happy. He was very good about reaching out and sending pictures during her stay which is very reassuring. Not enough Rover people do that! Tony is highly recommended!”
“This is the first time we used Rover and I was a nervous dog mom for sure! One of the things that I appreciated the most was every time I emailed Leilani, she would get back to me right away. She provided pictures and updates and took great care of our senior golden and our puppy, who had just had surgery a week before his stay with her. Thank you Leilani!”
“Desirae was amazing. She fit my dog in at the last minute when another sitter flaked, then she took such good care of my boy! He was so happy there, hanging with her, and the kids, wading in the lake off their back yard. I was happy too, knowing he was safe and well cared for. Thank you, Desirae! You're a gem!”
About: I am a very detail oriented individual who has loved raised animals since I was a child. I have experience with different types of dogs and personalities including rescues and spicy personalities. I myself own 3 dogs. 2 rescues and a French Bulldog. I consider myself someone who can easily gain trust with nervous or territorial dogs. I also have a lot of experience cats as well. I really like to listen to what the animal requires to give the best care for your fur babies. Currently, I work a full-time job 7-3:30pm. I am looking to do nights and weekends with the goal of going full-time. Currently weekends and last minute walks during the weekdays after 4:00 will work best. First and foremost my animals are my babies and I feel the same way about yours! I like to make sure that anyone whose animal I care for feels comfortable and all questions have been asked prior to care. If possible, I like to meet the dogs and owners ahead of time which allows the owners to see our interactions together to make sure it is a great fit. I will send photos and updates while giving reassurance to those who worry when not at home. My animals are my babies and yours will be too during care.
“Niccolo took great care of Tilly and kept us updated throughout. We felt extremely secure and comfortable leaving Tilly with Niccolo’s family and were able to truly enjoy our time away knowing she would be so well taken care of. Would not hesitate rebook.”
“Maile is so sweet, and she took my dogs in like they were her own ❤️ I could not have picked a better person to take care of my two German Shepherds. She kept me updated and even sent me some videos! She will be my go to for furbaby sitters from now on ??”

I can take your dog/s for walks , feed them ,do drop in visits or play with them. I have a small farm so have experience tending to rabbits, cats ,chickens,pigs, goats and chinchillas I work part time and am available weekdays / nights and weekends, i am available for overnights or early morning pick up / drop off I can come to you and take your dog/s for walks or playtime in your yard or neighborhood as well as taking them to hiking trails, parks or just out for a little socializing (depending on the dog) I have dogs that I can bring if your fur baby needs a playmate as well. I also offer daycare and boarding in my home, I don’t currently have a fence up but we are adding one in the spring. I have plenty of room for inside play for the dogs and go on multiple walks a day with them. I do have personal dogs but I can have it so they are separated if your dog doesn’t do well with others.
