“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”

“Ann was a pleasure. I would recommend Ann to watch your dog. Jj was great when we got him back. I was afraid to leave him as I have never left him before. Ann made it great for myself and Jj. Highly recommend Ann.”

“Aeli was very responsive and caring with our dog. We were really appreciative that she sent photos on a regular basis and asked questions to ensure he sticks to his usual routine.”


“Another great stay with Cathy! When my pup sees the house she gets excited walking up to the door! We get daily pics and daily reports of how she’s doing. We couldn’t be happier knowing our pup is doing so well. Cathy comes with my highest recommendation!!”

“Maureen was wonderful. She made Bailey feel welcome. Additionally, she helped us to have a high level of confidence in the environment that she was create for our dog. We will be going back to her in the future.”

“Thank you so much for keeping Michaela. The daily photos let me know she was in good hands. Thank you for working with me as I am new to this app. Thank you for providing great service.”

“WOW. This is my first time with Brittany. Brittany is amazing. Brittany devoted so much time to Drew. Although Brittany has a fenced in yard, she took our dog on two walks each day. They went to the park. They had movie night together. Brittany is a rare find. When I picked my dog up, you could see how much HE enjoyed staying with Brittany—his tail was wagging, he was smiling (yes, my dog smiles) and he was licking Brittany affectionately as we were saying goodbye. I’ve had a number of other dog sitters, but Brittany just goes the extra mile. Again, she’s incredible and puts all our other sitters to shame. We are definitely spoiled and will use Brittany again anytime we need a sitter.”

“I cannot recommend Melissa and her family enough. From the moment we had a meet and greet with her, I knew Watson would be in amazing hands! After dropping him off, I was updated multiple times a day with pictures, videos, and updates of him living his absolute best life. There was also so much care taken to accommodate him since he had a recent injury that he’s just out of recovery for. They took care of him as if he was their own, even going for walks in the rain! I’m so grateful to have found people so truly caring and who love animals to take care of my little guy! He is currently sound asleep after an adventure filled few nights! I’ll absolutely be booking again in the future! Thank you all again for being incredible ☺️”

“Maggie enjoyed her stay with Carolina! I felt very comfortable leaving Maggie there. I received updates and pictures during her stay. She also enjoyed playing with her dog Daisy! I will definitely be using Carolina again! Thank you so much Carolina for taking such good care of Maggie during her stay!”

“I cannot speak highly enough about the incredible care Christina and Nick provided for our Sammy. From the very first meet-and-greet to the final pickup, it was clear that our pup was in warm, capable, and loving hands. Daily updates with an abundance of adorable photos gave us peace of mind. If you're looking for dependable, experienced, and compassionate pet sitters who truly treat your pets like family, look no further. Christina and Nick are the gold standard.”
“I We had a great experience with Yesenia and Manny while Cody stayed with them for 4 days during our trip. It was Cody’s first time boarding at someone else's house, and everything went smoothly. Yesenia and Manny were very attentive and caring, which made us feel completely at ease. They also sent us regular pictures and videos of Cody, so we could see how well he was doing while we were away. We highly recommend them and would definitely trust them again!”

“Raymond took care of my little girl for a few days. I am very satisfied with her stay; Raymond was very patient with me (and her hehe) and answered all my questions in no time at all. Thank you so much, sir!”

“Monica & Kelvin are incredible! I’ve never felt more comfortable leaving my puppy somewhere (and I’m very picky). Instantly just conversing with Monica she put my mind at ease by giving so much reassurance that my Banjo would be okay with her. She provided so many cute pics/vids along with day to day updates about my boy 🥹. This family really loves what they do and it shows by how amazing they were to my puppy and treated him as their own. I 100% will be booking again with them!!! ❤️”

“We travel frequently for long trips and our usual sitter was not available this time and so we chose to use Rover and found Ankita and her beautiful family . From the time of meet and Greet I knew that I couldn’t have found a better dog loving home for my coco . The love care and affection they showered on coco was evident from the multiple daily updates we received in form of videos and messages . Coco was the happiest puppy ever and I bet she is going to miss them so much - especially their Dog Panther who is such a sweet heart and their little son who became coco’s best friend and companion to play all day :) Coco has found a new second home and we will surely be using them again at our next time away”

“Priscilla is amazing. Clearly a dog person. Very caring and attentive and responsive. She sent us great pictures and kept us updated on how our dog was doing. Highly recommended. We have booked multiple states with her already.”

“Laura and Kevin were a great fit for my dog. They spent lots of time outdoors which is her favorite place to be. She's an older dog and not use to staying with people she doesn't know. On top of that, she was having intestinal issues and they still happily took her. They kept us updated with lots of check ins and pictures. We will definitely choose them again!”

About: I have years of experience in the caretaking of animals and I’ve always done it with love, my family and friends always trusted me to care for their pets since I was younger and i’ve always enjoyed it. I love every part of taking care of animals whether its grooming, bathing oral medications administration etc… Animals will always hold a special place in my heart. My schedule is very flexible, I usually stay home and do online school work most of the time, so I’m available really anytime on weekdays and sometimes on weekends. I will care for the pets by making sure they are well fed, kept clean and healthy. I live in a very safe neighborhood with a nice park down the street. I have an animal friendly household with fences outside to ensure that the pets wont wander off.
“Carol is an amazing pet sitter! Her care was exceptional, and she made communication so easy with adorable photo updates. My dog clearly had a wonderful time with her. She's professional, reliable, and truly warm-hearted. Highly recommend!”

“Elizabeth was super responsive and always answered my sometimes ridiculous questions. She didn’t make me feel like I was being a paranoid Pet parent even though I know I was. She even got my old man grumpy cat to play a little bit. I would give her six stars if I could.”


“Katie is friendly, attentive, and responsive. She did a great job taking care of our cat during a long weekend, and we will definitely be looking to book with Katie again in the future!”


“Suzie is an excellent and reliable caretaker. She dropped in on our cat while we were away and she was on time, followed all instructions perfectly, sent pictures and videos, and our shy cat warmed up to her instantly. Highly recommended.”


“Chloe is the absolute BEST! She is easy to communicate with, professional and nice! Our super shy cat always comes out for her and feels safe with her. She is our go to cat sitter and would recommend her 10/10!!!”

“Nicole was awesome! She exceeded my expectation. She administered injections for my recently diagnosed diabetic cat who I was nervous about leaving. She sent pictures of him and sent me updates all along the way.He was comfortable with her and looked great while I was away. I would recommend her 100%!”


“Alexa was so communicative and great with my cat! He takes oral medication and she handled it so well. Thank you, Alexa!! I felt very comfortable leaving my cat home alone for a week knowing you were checking on him.”

“Tatiana was wonderful with my cats and would definitely get her to sit them again. She's very diligent, thorough, and reliable. She goes beyond what is expected of her. Always sent very good pictures, videos, and summary of her time spent with my kitties.”


“Taylor was so great caring for my cat Clifford while I was away! She sent cute updates and photos and gave him plenty of playtime and cuddles. I came home to a happy cat! I would definitely recommend her if you need someone responsible and kind to watch your pet.”

“Amazing as usual! Alyssa always makes sure I’m updated and sends pictures after each visit. I’m so grateful she was available on such short notice and took wonderful care of my cats. Highly highly recommend!”

“Leigh is amazing! She took excellent care of our two fur babies. Right off the bat on the first meet and greet, we got an excellent first impression. She was friendly and brought them homemade amazing treats! When our trip came, she was in constant contact with us and sent so many wonderful pictures. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip with the knowledge that our pups were safe and cared for. Leigh is a rockstar.”

“Christine has been such a blessing for us. We recently brought into our home a wonderful shelter dog who needed a lot of love and attention, and was initially suffering from severe separation anxiety whenever someone would leave the room. It has also been more than 15 years since we've had a dog and needless to say we were rusty. From day 1 of the meet and greet with Christine, our dog Dot immediately felt comfortable around her, our kids listened intently to her suggestions, explanations and stories of her own going through similar experiences. She's provided consistent advice and support (outside the formal drop-in/walking sessions we pay for). She has her own dogs and fosters dogs as well... and it's clear she does not do this for the money, but purely for her love of dogs. She posts updates during every visit, sends pics, cleans up if there's been an accident, and provides ideas/suggestions when she can. I highly recommend her!”


About: I was raised around both cats and dogs and still take care of many today. I am the first person friends & family call if they ever need a sitter for their cats or just advice on any issues they’re having as new cat owners. I’ve trained my own cats as they’ve grown old to stick to the litter box right when they started to act out. I’ve also helped raise cats that were abandoned and found them proper care.

“Kathryn was eager to meet my boys prior to our trip. This puts everyone at ease. It’s something I look for when choosing a new pet care provider. Kathryn followed all my instructions and was communicative all during our trip. My boys were happy and content when we got home.”

“We had a great experience with Melinda caring for our cat Ramen during our vacation. She communicated clearly and consistently, followed all instructions carefully, and kept our home clean and tidy. She provided wonderful company for our cat, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would definitely book her again.”

“Aeli is an amazing sitter. I try to choose sitters who have their own dogs so my own can socialize. I think (since I can’t read her mind) my pup had a great time. Aeli sent numerous pictures which were greatly appreciated. We will definitely book again!”

“Tyler has been such tremendous help with our 3 month old Jack Russell! His puppy day care has been amazing! Spending time with our little girl, playing, walking, napping and training, instead of her home alone all day while we work. We can't say enough great things about him!”

“Liz and her family were great! They took excellent care of my pup during the day. I felt at ease knowing that Louie was safe and having fun. I would definitely use Liz again for doggy daycare!”

“Fantastic sitter. Very responsive and shares many updates throughout the day. Their dog was also very well trained and got along so well with our puppy. Can definitely recommend”

About: Hi! I’m Lindsey, a lifelong animal lover and trained dog care professional based in Ramsey, NJ 🐾 I am willing to help all over North Jersey! I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently care for my 14-year-old Wheaten Terrier, Dexter, who I’ve had for his entire life! :) I’ve also worked in a professional dog daycare and provided dog walking and pet sitting for multiple families, and I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities! Whether it’s playtime, a walk, helping with meds, or just keeping your pet company, I bring calm, reliable, loving energy to every visit. I’m trained in safe animal handling and committed to keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I also make sure keep pet parents updated with lots of photos and messages for peace of mind. 😊 Can’t wait to meet your fur baby!! I’m a college student home for the summer! I have a very open and available schedule, and I’m available to help you and your furry friend/friends most any time and any day with anything you need :) I always make sure every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and loved. When caring for dogs in their home, I’m respectful of the space and always leave it even better than I found it!
“Andrea did a great job with Lola! She took her on walks and allowed lots of playtime. Fed Lola timely and stayed with her the whole day. Definitely recommend Andrea for Rover any day!”

“Allison did a great job caring for my puppy Nacho! She sent me videos and pictures of his day and let Nacho play outside in a fenced area with her friendly two dogs. He had a great time and was so sleepy when he came home 🤗”

“Lauren watched our dog twice. She was fantastic both times. Our dog, Rylee, likes all people but she really took to Lauren. And for good reason -- Lauren is a true dog lover. She walked Rylee each time and sent us pics during the day. Finally, Lauren went above and beyond. Our car broke down in Moss Landing and had to be towed back to Pacific Grove. Lauren kept Rylee into the evening and brought her to us. We recommend her highly.”

“Rocio is THE best!! She helped me out, last-minute, with my two pups. She’s extremely caring and attentive to my dogs and I receive multiple updates (w/photos) throughout the day. The best part is, not only do they come home super tired, but also they smell AMAZING! Thank you, Rocio - Cooper & Luna are SO excited to get into the car every morning 😁”

About: I grew up with both dogs and cats, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs belonging to friends, family members, and clients—including dogs with anxiety, especially while their owners are traveling. Many of these dogs had previously stayed in large commercial boarding facilities where multiple dogs share the same space, which often increased their stress and anxiety. I’ve seen firsthand how much of a difference a calm home environment and personalized one-on-one attention can make. I am also certified in American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid, so I’m prepared to respond in case of an emergency and provide attentive care for your pets. I focus on patience, consistency, and gentle, loving care to help each dog feel safe, comfortable, and secure. With dedicated attention and companionship, I’ve watched anxious dogs gradually become more relaxed and confident—sometimes they even seem reluctant to leave! :) I’m home full-time to care for your pup. This means your dog will receive plenty of attention, regular walks, and consistent, loving care throughout the day. I have the time and flexibility to focus on your dog’s individual needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for during their stay. I keep my schedule flexible, but I only care for one dog at a time to provide the best possible experience. Because of this, spots can fill quickly—especially during holidays—so please plan and book in advance. Located in a quiet, friendly neighborhood, my home is designed to provide comfort, security, and plenty of room for your dog to relax and play. Your pup will enjoy a park-like backyard—nearly half an acre—fully fenced for safe exploration and outdoor fun. Whether they love to run, sniff, or simply lounge in the sun, there’s plenty of space to feel at home. In the summer, I also set up a dog-friendly swimming pool so they can cool off and have some extra fun. I share my home with a very friendly 9-year-old Black Lab who is gentle, well-socialized, and enjoys calm companionship with other dogs. To ensure every dog gets the attention, care, and comfort they deserve, I typically host only one dog at a time (with a maximum of two during holidays). This allows me to focus on your dog’s individual needs and create a low-stress, personalized experience. Your dog will be treated like family here—safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way.
“Laura and Kevin are amazing sitters! Very clear communication and very accommodating. My dog Kai is always excited to see their family and always comes home tired from a full day of fun!! Will definitely use them again.”

I have fostered many dogs and puppies for a local rescue group. I have alsi provided dog care for my friends and neighbors for 40+ years. Our dog friendly pup will keep your fur baby company either running around in our fenced-in yard or chilling out inside. We have a pretty relaxed style in taking care of your pet. Hi! We are home full time. We will give your pup the TLC he/she is used to at home. Our dog friendly pup will keep your fur baby company while running around in the fenced-in yard or chilling out inside. We have a pretty relaxed style in taking care of your pet. I require a meet and greet with your dog before a scheduled stay to make sure your dog gets along with my pets and feels comfortable in our home. You can always book a daycare before a longer stay so your dog gets used to our home. Our cat keeps to himself most of the day. It is important that your dog is fairly well behaved and does not: *jump on furniture without permission *chew on inappropriate items such as shoes (unless it's a puppy which of course we will plan accordingly) *or drool excessively He/she should be easygoing, and most importantly, should not be aggressive. We live in a single family home with a fenced-in yard (6' high PVC) and 1 friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. We also have a crate that can be used if your dogs prefers. The cat litter is kept in a room blocked off by pet gates where only the cat will have access.
“This was our second time dropping off Tobie with Karla, and as before we are very happy with her services. She provides regular updates eoth pictures (❣️) and our little guy seems very comfortable with her. Definitely recommend!”

About: I have owned dogs most of my life, always showering them with the love and care they deserve. Now, I want to do the same for your pups! I am available most days during the day, weekends included. My schedule is extremely flexible, so I should almost always be able to accommodate your requests. I have a fenced-in yard and a friendly dog, so your dog will be housed safely, and will have a four-legged friend to play with. I take my dog on frequent walks and would be excited to take yours along with us.

“Lisbeth has been a wonderful addition to our family of pet caretakers! She is always on time and polite, and Ravioli always has a good walk- looking forward to having Lisbeth help us for a long time!”

“Tyler is amazing! I would highly recommend Tyler to friends, family and anyone who is looking for a dog walker/sitter. It's hard for me to trust each and anyone with my Zeus and Tyler gained my trust. Tyler cares and is very patient.”

“Alexa is very reliable and has been very patient with our nervous larger dog. He’s always happier after he goes for a walk with her. We would definitely recommend Alexa for any of your pet care needs.”

“Melissa was great with my dog, Blaze! She not only provided Blaze with much needed exercise on her daily walks, but she almost always stuck around to give a little tender love and care to our pooch. She also brought in our mail, which was an unexpected perk. I highly recommend Melissa. She is a reliable and loving caretaker of dogs.”

“Eilleen was great with our cockapoo Wesley - he seemed very excited to see her for his check-ins! She was also super helpful and understanding when it came to scheduling around my new job, which we’ve really appreciated.”


About: The highlight of my dog's day is going on his walks, I want to make sure every pup gets to have theirs! Over 5 years of experience walking my own and my friends' dogs of different breeds and sizes. Experience with shy, timid rescues as well, my own dog is a pit/lab mix rescue from Texas and I was able to build up his confidence through regular routine walking! I have plenty of free time during the week to give your pup a quality walk, currently in between jobs so I am available most days. My dog, Bowie gets at least two 20-30 min walks a day with the occasional hike and dog park visit, I love to make sure he is active and having fun with water on hand for hot days or extra long walks to make sure he is hydrated throughout.

About: Prior to moving towns I used to pet sit for all of my neighbors. Pets large and small, it didn’t matter but it was always fun. I’m starting my MBA next fall so anything earned on here will go towards that goal of mine! I’ve owned pets for over 12 years and have been taking care of others for 6 so almost all throughout high school and undergrad. I can walk multiple dogs at once, great with elderly animals, experienced with puppies, able to administer pet medication, etc. If you have questions reach out! Currently I am taking two online summer courses for my MBA with Sacred Heart University. I go to the gym 4 times a week and work drop in bartending shifts sometimes on weekends. Since I make my own schedule pet care fits very well into it because I can tailor mine to fit the animals needs! I don’t offer in home care at the moment because my sister recently got hip surgery so I’m waiting until she’s more comfortable to have other peoples pets at home. Otherwise I have two sweet dogs who have coexisted well with pets that I’ve taken care of in the past as well as cats they stay in their own room.

About: I’ve spent years volunteering in different countries socializing, walking, and caring for all different breeds and sizes of dogs. I have genuine love and affection for every dog and their personalities and want them to get plenty of exercise and care to keep them happy and healthy. I”m currently working part time on weekends, so I will have plenty of time most weekdays for regular scheduling. I can commit to a regular routine as needed. I will happily create a positive space and relationship with any dog and make them feel genuine compassion and trust. I have plenty of space in my UV for safe transport if needed.
“Leigh was so attentive with Goose and he had a great time with her! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and videos, and kept us updated on her arrivals and departures. We felt very comfortable with Goose in her hands and will be using her again in the future!”

About: Hi! I love dogs since I was 6 years old. I specialize in taking care of small dogs up to 25 pounds. I currently have 2 pups - 3 year old Yorkie named Cosita & 3 year old pug named Madrid. Before them, I've taken care of my pugs, Miami & Aliza (both 16 years old when they passed away in December 2020 & February 2021), along with pets of my neighbors, friends, and family friends. I know almost every dog breed by heart. My favorite dog breeds are Pugs and Yorkshire Terriers. I am available during the work week to take care of your fur baby, as I work from home part-time. This means that I am able to provide your pet with plenty of attention and exercise, even on weekdays. I am also able to adjust my schedule to accommodate your pet's needs, such as if they need to be fed or let outside at specific times. I am committed to providing your pet with the best possible care, and I will do everything I can to make sure they feel comfortable and loved while you are away. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs - my Yorkshire Terrier and my Pug - to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed (only if you instruct so)... I am also experienced in dog walking and drop-in visits. I make sure that your fur baby has water, food, and is able to do their business outside. ****I only accept dogs that weigh no more than 25 pounds**** Please feel free to reach out to book me and ask me any questions and/or comments! :)
“We can always count on Joannie! We have been working with her a few months now and so thankful. She always provides us with detailed updates of our dogs. Recommend her to anyone in need of a dog walker / boarder. Thank you as always Joannie!”

About: Hello, my name is Tatiana! I’m a 28-year-old living in Woodcliff Lake, NJ, and a proud Rutgers University alumna with a degree in Pre-Veterinary Medicine! I’ve been in love with animals of all kind for as long as I can remember, driving me to pursue this degree! While at Rutgers, I gained hands-on experience working with horses, cows, goats, sheep, and pigs on the university farm. Additionally, I’ve spent over five years as a veterinary assistant and surgical nurse at a pet hospital, specializing in the care of cats and dogs. I’m proficient in administering oral medications and subcutaneous or intramuscular injections. I also have experience with chemotherapy medications, having cared for my dog, who has had a bladder tumor for nearly three years. I share my home with a grumpy 14-year-old Bichon Frise/Shih-Tzu and a 4-year-old Scottish Fold cat with Cerebellar Hypoplasia, whom I rescued during my time at the veterinary clinic. My love for animals knows no bounds, and I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own! With a passion for animals and years of experience, I offer a range of services including dog walking, overnight care, and pet sitting! So whether you're going on a weekend getaway or need someone to take care of your fur baby during the day, I've got you covered! I will gladly send you pictures and video updates of your sweet kitty or pupper! I also am happy to play with them using their favorite toys and don't mind spending extra time for a snuggle session while I’m there! If you're interested in my services, please feel free to message me to discuss your pet care needs! I can't wait to meet you and your fur babies! I’m currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Speech Language Pathology at Kean University with the goal of working with children. In addition, I wanted to continue my passion for working with cats and dogs, so I decided what better way than pet-sitting! I’m available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from the morning until 3:30 p.m. I’m also available all day on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays! Please note that my house sitting fee covers 10-12 hours overnight (depending on my availability) and one midday drop-in! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I adhere strictly to their established routines to ensure the pets feel comfortable and secure. I follow the feeding schedules, provide fresh water, and engage in stimulating playtime and exercise tailored to each pet’s needs. I also ensure the home remains secure and well-maintained during my visits. This includes tidying up areas like vacuuming around the litter box and cleaning up any pet-related messes. Additionally, I provide regular updates with photos and messages to keep the pet parent informed about their pets’ well-being!

“Janette was so sweet! I felt bad because my husband left on a trip and it was such a last minute request. She still was able to fit Finn in and provided pictures and a great report card. Finn was so happy! :) thank you again Janette!!”

I understand that every pet is unique, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet loves lots of playtime or prefers a calm and gentle approach, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I’m currently available for drop-in visits and dog walks, and I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! :) I work full time so I have the most flexibility on Friday-Monday. For weekdays I am available 6am-8am and 5pm-8pm. On Mondays and Fridays I am also available between 12-2.

“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”

“Maureen was wonderful. She made Bailey feel welcome. Additionally, she helped us to have a high level of confidence in the environment that she was create for our dog. We will be going back to her in the future.”

“WOW. This is my first time with Brittany. Brittany is amazing. Brittany devoted so much time to Drew. Although Brittany has a fenced in yard, she took our dog on two walks each day. They went to the park. They had movie night together. Brittany is a rare find. When I picked my dog up, you could see how much HE enjoyed staying with Brittany—his tail was wagging, he was smiling (yes, my dog smiles) and he was licking Brittany affectionately as we were saying goodbye. I’ve had a number of other dog sitters, but Brittany just goes the extra mile. Again, she’s incredible and puts all our other sitters to shame. We are definitely spoiled and will use Brittany again anytime we need a sitter.”

“Maggie enjoyed her stay with Carolina! I felt very comfortable leaving Maggie there. I received updates and pictures during her stay. She also enjoyed playing with her dog Daisy! I will definitely be using Carolina again! Thank you so much Carolina for taking such good care of Maggie during her stay!”

“I cannot speak highly enough about the incredible care Christina and Nick provided for our Sammy. From the very first meet-and-greet to the final pickup, it was clear that our pup was in warm, capable, and loving hands. Daily updates with an abundance of adorable photos gave us peace of mind. If you're looking for dependable, experienced, and compassionate pet sitters who truly treat your pets like family, look no further. Christina and Nick are the gold standard.”
“Monica & Kelvin are incredible! I’ve never felt more comfortable leaving my puppy somewhere (and I’m very picky). Instantly just conversing with Monica she put my mind at ease by giving so much reassurance that my Banjo would be okay with her. She provided so many cute pics/vids along with day to day updates about my boy 🥹. This family really loves what they do and it shows by how amazing they were to my puppy and treated him as their own. I 100% will be booking again with them!!! ❤️”

“We travel frequently for long trips and our usual sitter was not available this time and so we chose to use Rover and found Ankita and her beautiful family . From the time of meet and Greet I knew that I couldn’t have found a better dog loving home for my coco . The love care and affection they showered on coco was evident from the multiple daily updates we received in form of videos and messages . Coco was the happiest puppy ever and I bet she is going to miss them so much - especially their Dog Panther who is such a sweet heart and their little son who became coco’s best friend and companion to play all day :) Coco has found a new second home and we will surely be using them again at our next time away”

“Priscilla is amazing. Clearly a dog person. Very caring and attentive and responsive. She sent us great pictures and kept us updated on how our dog was doing. Highly recommended. We have booked multiple states with her already.”

“Evelien was a phenomenal dog sitter. She was very attentive to my dog’s needs, sent updates, and gave our pup a beautiful home away from home. Her 3 dogs are just as friendly and welcoming as she is.”

“Camila was absolutely wonderful! She kept me updated with photos and videos and took such great care of Winnie. Her dog Milo was also amazing—he and Winnie got along so well and played together perfectly. I felt completely at ease knowing Winnie was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be booking her again—couldn’t be happier with the experience!”


About: Hi! We are home full time. We will give your pup the TLC he/she is used to at home. I have loved dogs my whole life and owned my own pups for 26+ years. I have fostered many dogs and puppies for a local rescue group. I have alsi provided dog care for my friends and neighbors for 40+ years. Our dog friendly pup will keep your fur baby company either running around in our fenced-in yard or chilling out inside. We have a pretty relaxed style in taking care of your pet. Hi! We are home full time. We will give your pup the TLC he/she is used to at home. Our dog friendly pup will keep your fur baby company while running around in the fenced-in yard or chilling out inside. We have a pretty relaxed style in taking care of your pet. I require a meet and greet with your dog before a scheduled stay to make sure your dog gets along with my pets and feels comfortable in our home. You can always book a daycare before a longer stay so your dog gets used to our home. Our cat keeps to himself most of the day. It is important that your dog is fairly well behaved and does not: *jump on furniture without permission *chew on inappropriate items such as shoes (unless it's a puppy which of course we will plan accordingly) *or drool excessively He/she should be easygoing, and most importantly, should not be aggressive. We live in a single family home with a fenced-in yard (6' high PVC) and 1 friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. We also have a crate that can be used if your dogs prefers. The cat litter is kept in a room blocked off by pet gates where only the cat will have access.
“It was a pleasure working with Matthew! He is an excellent communicator and was very flexible with our schedule. He took wonderful care of Summer, providing regular photo updates and real-time feedback that gave me complete peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”

“I had the pleasure of booking Kevin for a life-saving last minute booking and not only did he make it work with zero complaints but he was absolutely phenomenal with my little bud. Amazing with his communication as well as updates and pictures/videos ! I was so glad to hear that he was able to manage with such little time how to maneuver with my sometimes odd and overly energetic pup. Highly recommend to others and will be booking again 🥰”

“Joannie was amazing with Charly! She shared updates and photo’s everyday! Charly was such a happy pup when she came back home. Thank you so much! Will absolutely use her services again!”

“Lauryn took excellent care of our Gemma. She was very communicative and gave our puppy girl plenty of exercise and plenty of love. We look forward to boarding Gemma was Lauryn again.”

“It was Louie’s first time with Barbara. He was there one week and everything went well. I felt comfortable leaving him with Barbara and her family. They sent me pictures and updated me. I would definitely use her again in the future.”

“Karla was great with Cooper and Lulu. Lulu is uneasy around strangers because she is deaf, but Karla was patient and gained Lulu’s trust. Karla sent us lots of pictures so we could see what they were up to while in her care. We will definitely reach out to Karla when we need a sitter again.”
