“We had such a great experience with MJ! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about our dog. We received regular updates with pictures, and she even sent our dog home with a sweet note. We would absolutely trust MJ again to watch our dog, and highly recommend her to anyone looking for one!”
“Corrine took great care of Sadie. She sent us pictures every day, which we appreciated. It looked like Sadie made a lot of new friends. We would not hesitate to leave Sadie with Corrine and her family in the future.”
“Jenn provided the best care for our recently adopted french bulldog, Dr. Pepper. She kept intouch with me all weekend and sent lots of pictures. He seemed to really enjoy his stay with Jenn and her family. I would highly recommend her and we will definitely be using her again in the future.”
“Brie absolutely loved her time at Meghan’s place! I got daily updates and great communication and could see how happy and comfortable she was in the photos and videos. We felt relaxed and assured that our dog was in excellent care and being treated as if she was part of the family. Meghan even included a little goodie bag and was sad to see Brie go, they’re really bonded. I absolutely recommend Meghan (and Rob) to care for your baby!”
“Last night was my first night away from my 4 month old puppy. Even though my pup did great on our meet and great I was very anxious about leaving her. Bob knew my husband and I were celebrating our 25 year wedding anniversary and made sure we relaxed and enjoyed ourselves but sending periodic updates with pics. When we picked up our puppy today she just woke up from a nap on Bob's lap. She was happy to see us but in no rush to leave. Bob will now be watching her for 10 nights in the summer and I couldn't be happier. I am 100% confident that I found the perfect sitter for my little girl. Thank you again Bob!!!”

“Unbelievable!!! This was the first time that we gave Zeke to another person. As soon as Zeke saw Hendra he was running to him, and when I came (hesitantly...) to pick him up, he was so calm and content, an indication that he had a great 2 days! Will know where to send next time we need a sitter, and very warmly recommend Hendra! He was extremely courteous and kind, professional and warm at the same time!”
“Christine was a great dog sitter for our two dogs Timon and Rafika. They got along well with her dog Piper and I could tell by the pictures they were comfortable and enjoyed their time playing, snuggling and sleeping in their normal comfortable spots. Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies. Leslie and Rich”
“We were nervous about leaving Sammie with someone we didn’t know, but when we did the meet and greet with Tina we knew she was the right person to watch Sammie. She answered all our questions, asked good questions, and she genuinely wanted to make sure Sammie would have the best stay while in her care. We received updates on Sammie’s walks, cuddle time, and if she was eating her food. We also received pictures of Sammie which put a smile on our faces. We were reassured that we had made the right choice. We would absolutely work with Tina again. 😊”
“This is a review for the entire family because all of them were such a big part of Lila's great weekend! My dog is high energy and also snuggly like velcro and Anmol and Trupti AND their boys gave her an affectionate, energetic weekend with lots of hugs and lots of play time. Will definitely use them again!”

“Cara is very caring and an excellent communicator. She has a neat, clean home & a very friendly small dog who readily accepted our 24lb cockapoo. When we returned to her home after the Meet & Greet, our pooch was happily whining & immediately laid on the floor & stretched wagging his tail. He was thoroughly happy when we retrieved him several days later, Cara even cleaned his ears when she saw he had ear discomfort, Highly recommend her.”
“Second time leaving our 1 year old golden with them. Definitely trust Paul, very accommodating and alleviated our anxiety of leaving our dog for a few nights. Will definitely use again.”
“Cheryl had our Leo for several days while we attended a family funeral. Everything was wonderful and Cheryl kept us up to date daily on how he was doing. I highly recommend Cheryl and her family if you need help with you pet. She was highly responsive and the entire experience was just perfect??”

About: Living with my roommate’s two cats was a surprisingly positive experience. At first, I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about sharing the space, but their different personalities quickly grew on me. One was playful and curious, while the other was calm and affectionate. Over time, they made the apartment feel warmer and more like home.
“Catherine is great! I knew from our meet and greet that she is a genuine animal lover! She immediately got down onto the floor to calmly and gently introduce herself to my cat. Dani went right up to her with confidence. Catherine took such good care of my Dani while I was on vacation. She made sure that she had plenty of food and water each day and tended to the litter box. Catherine took time to pet, brush, and play with Dani too. She also took a lot of great photos. I could see from the photos that Dani was thoroughly enjoying Catherine’s company and attention. I will definitely use Catherine in the future and confidently recommend her pet sitting services to others.”
“Rachel is absolutely amazing! Followed all instructions and took care of my Buddher as if she was one of her own. And I know my baby girl warmed up to her, she gained a new friend and my mind was so at ease with all the updates and pictures Rachel sent. The best was she came through on Thanksgiving! Which I truly am grateful for. Rachel will be my go-to in the future for sure, hands down. Thank you Rachel!!”
“Shoshana was excellent taking care of my cat for a month. When I arrived my cat was healthy and happy. She provided me constant updates and pictures and was always easy to connect.”

As a recently retired police officer, I currently work part-time so my hours are flexible and will have plenty of time for your fur babies. I will treat your home as if it were my own.

“Mary was awesome. She accommodated a pretty short notice request for our first time for a drop-in. And while our dogs can be anxious around new people, she had no concerns and took them out and played with them and they had a blast. We will definitely be using her services again.”
About: I have worked in the animal care field for the past 14 years. I have worked with exotic, domestic, and laboratory animals through my career as a zookeeper and animal care technician. I love dogs and even work part time at a doggy daycare and boarding facility - making sure your furry best friend is well taken care and feels safe and loved is something I’m very passionate about. I've had multiple dogs, cats, and small mammals as pets since I was born. I am an experienced animal trainer and have experience giving animals oral and subcutaneous medications. Currently I have two Siberian Huskies who are very well trained and socialized. I love to take them hiking and to doggy daycare where I work so they can play. They are part of my family and I promise to care for your dog like it's my own! We just moved to the area so I am looking to add in some part time work while my kids are at school or other times throughout the week. I have a large fenced in yard with 2 sweet senior huskies and 2 boys that love dogs! If I need to care for your pet at your home, I promise to leave it as I found it and clean up after your fur baby. They will be safe and loved with me.

“Liia and Lucky are the best! Liia took great care and loved my dog just as much as she was her own. Lucky is a great doggie friend as well. Would highly recommend their home for your fur baby to spend time there.”
“Rachel was an amazing host for our Cleo. She made sure to know any special needs of our dog and also has a house that is very pet friendly. Lots of beds and toys for the pups to play with. Our dog loves the company of other dogs so her and Rachel’s dog got along like sisters. Rachel was kind enough to plan a day of activities for Cleo, taking her to a few dog parks and a nature walk (Rachel sends photos often so you can be aware of what they are up to). Cleo was happy and exhausted from the good time she had at Rachel’s and we all know a tired dog is a happy dog and care taker. Will be looking forward to having Cleo stay with Rachel again when we’re in the area.”

“I can’t express in words the amazing job Shoshana did. I never heard of Rover before and wanted to try it out. Shoshana came out early just to meet my dog so they could know each other. Shoshana came to walk her for the booking and treated my dog like she was her own. Her love and affection for an animal that is not hers is unbelievable. I only wish I knew about Shoshana sooner. I look forward to the next time I can use her service because I know my dog is in good hands with her.”

She even came to the house during the day and met with me and Bowie for a meet and greet before she came back that evening on her own. She went above and beyond with sending me updates as well as photos and videos, and even did other things like refill his food and water and remove his collar once he was in for the night (as I requested). My dog instantly was comfortable around her and you can see that she is very professional and passionate about her job. 10/10 recommend, she was so kind and a true life saver!”

Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I make up for it with frequent leashed walks, outdoor play, and lots of one-on-one attention. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Wonderful experience from the meet until pick up. Meg able to accommodate us for a last minute boarding. She sent photos & video daily which was amazing. She also gave us detailed daily updates on how our pupper ate and played. 10 out of 10 experience!”
“We were extremely satisfied with Tom. He watched our Senior dog and was very understanding of her issues and limitations. He provided photos snd updates about her while we were away. 5 Stars!”
“Mark was incredible! We will definitely be booking with him and his sweet family again in the future. Mark was communicative and sent check-in texts with photos throughout Benny's stay there. When we picked Benny up at the end of the weekend, he was SO tired in all the best ways. Thanks so much again, Mark!”
About: I love all animals, even reptiles! When I was a teenager I worked at a kennel for a summer job and fell in love with every breed of dog. I’ve had dogs, cats, rabbits and small critters my entire life and even backyard chickens! My current pup is a senior boxer/Shepard mix. I am comfortable giving medication and caring for senior and special needs pets. I have a full time job so am available for pet care in the evenings and on weekends. I work local so if pet sitting at my house, I can check in at lunch time. I have a fenced in backyard and crates if needed. My senior dog is chill and is great with dogs and cats if caring for you pet in my home. For short stays, pets usually do best in their own home with visits from me up to three times a day depending on their needs.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was a teenager and I am obsessed with mine now. My dogs are so friendly and they love to play with new friends so I would love to host your dog in my home which is a fenced in yard. Plenty of space to run and a very clean environment. I am a work from home mom with two boys who are 10 and 12 who also love dogs. because of my schedule, I am able to be home to take care of the pups. I would treat them like my own! They are welcome to Rome in a comfortable large space and run around in the backyard with lots of walks every couple of hours.
