“This was our second time boarding with Amanda and our little pup was excited to be back, wagging her tail the second she saw Amanda. Great to know she enjoys the stay and is well cared for when we are away!”

“Gavin did a great job with our dog Juneau. We got some nice pics every day to see how Juneau was doing there. It was a calm, home setting for dog stays with a safe fenced in area as well. Will be back in the future.”

“Stef was amazing!!! She cared so much for our dogs while they were with her. I am a nervous dog mom so I’m concerned any time my “kids” aren’t with me BUT Stef made it easy. She sent lots of updates to let me know what they were up to and how they were doing. She was also very flexible with us as our schedule changed. Stef was exceedingly patient and always willing to help our family. We would be grateful for the opportunity to leave our dogs with her again! 10 out of 5 stars! 😁”

“We needed a place for Finnley for a long holiday weekend. He absolutely enjoyed his college visit and came back with a higher education and some new tricks. Isabella was incredibly responsive and flexible with our schedule while taking amazing care of Finn and keeping us updated about his adventures. We think he is excited to go back and visit his new feline friend Prince.”

“Did a phenomenal job of caring for it cats while I moved into a new apartment post-divorce. Sent quite a few picture updates while respecting distance of the cat who likes her space. Would book again 😀”

“Our Dog had a blast staying with Katie, 10/10 would recommend. We’re not sure if our dog even wanted to come back with us after his amazing vacation with Katie and her Husband.”

“The best thing about going on vacation is to know that your dogs might have a vacation as well! Angel took care of my 2 dogs in a caring and safe place. My dogs were welcomed at her house as their own. I loved the constant updates. I would like to book with her in a near future knowing that my dogs are happy at her place.”

“Rachel did a superb job taking care of our 15 month old pup for two weeks! She went above and beyond making sure that Rio was comfortable, entertained and safe. She provided ample pics and updates. She even did puppy “artwork” with her, which we got to keep. I was amazed at this level of care, which allowed me to not worry a bit. Priceless.”

“Joy was fantastic with Ziggy who can sometimes be a little anxious in new settings and a finicky eater. Joy put me at ease with lots of updates and Ziggy really loved her. She went above and beyond to buy him some chicken when he ran out. Thanks Joy!!”


“Tami was great. She took my dogs over a holiday weekend with very little notice. She was very thorough in making sure everyone was up to date on vaccinations (even helped me find a goof by one of my vets). She had a lovely secure yard and was very skilled and dog centered in her care of my little guys. They were happy and rested when I picked them up. Overall, a great experience”

“Laurie was just great in every aspect of boarding our pooch Mikey. She was very accommodating to our schedule and was quick to respond to calls and text. But most importantly, Laurie was fantastic with Mikey. One could immediately tell she is at ease with dogs. I would certainly use Laurie on our next visit to Prescott and recommend her to our friends with dogs. John and Nancy F.”

“Brooke was phenomenal. I feel lucky to have found her and think she's an absolute gem on this app. I will definitely be using her again to take care of Luna, would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! It was a huge relief to know that Luna was being so well attended to. She seemed really happy and like she settled in with Brooke right away and Brooke's communication was amazing. I received lots of updates and photos.”

“Michelle was a terrific dog sitter, caring, attentive and I know my dog enjoyed his time at her house. She sent photos daily which I appreciated and her dog and mine got along great. Thanks so much!”

“We have continued to use Candace as she is great with our Chihuahua. Our pup wags her tail when we walk up Candace's steps to drop her off, that's when we know she's in great hands.”
“Whenever I travel, just knowing that Rossen is having fun or relaxing with Nancy and her sweet dog Benny makes me feel so at ease. It really lets me focus on what I need to do, without worrying about him at all”

“Kendell kept Camber, my yorkie, for a 24 hour stay. Kendell is a great communicator, and provided several updates and photos since this was Camber's first time away since she was a puppy. Kendall's sweet dog, Taz, got along great woth Camber, and they had a wonderful time playing and taking walks together. Kendall's deafness was not an issue whatsoever, and it obvious she is really good with dogs. Camber's next (much longer) stay is already booked.”

“Mark was very kind and took great care of Piper. He sent me pics and took her for walks and trips to the dog park. He was good at communicating. I felt Piper was in good hands and I would definitely book with him again in the future.”

“Stephanie was wonderfully caring of my 5-month old kitten. Extremely communicative and sent lots of pictures. Was kind enough to pick her up and drop her off during the busy holiday season. Our kitten stayed at Stephanie's for 3 weeks and by the looks of it enjoyed her stay there with her other feline friends. Would definitely trust her with my kitty again:) Highly recommend!!”

About: ***Please be sure to fill out your pet's entire profile and please do not ask me to contact you on an external phone number until you have been established as a client ; All initial communication must be through the Rover app or website*** Hi I'm Lana! I am trained in animal care and I have been pet sitting (mostly dogs) for more than 10 years. I think dogs are really special beings and beautiful companions. I enjoy being able to give pet parents peace of mind that their loved ones are being looked after with the utmost care and compassion. I have cared for dogs of various sizes, temperaments and ages. My naturally calm and patient disposition works well with most, especially dogs that may need more time and attention, such as shy dogs or older dogs. I am available for drop-in visits, overnights and walks. For walks and drop-in visits, I still have space open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Mondays and Fridays are packed. If you have any questions about specific dates and times please feel free to send me a message here on Rover. I prefer to care for pets in their own home because it offers them a sense of security during a difficult emotional time while their humans are away. **PLEASE NOTE** I am only offering overnights to existing clients of 4-6 weeks or more, I feel it is important for me and your animal companions to get to know each other before their family goes away.
“Brittany was everything we could have wished for and more! Our cat absolutely adored her and we loved how well she communicated with us and gave us daily updates. We would book Brittany again in a heartbeat and recommend her to everyone ❤️”

About: I love meeting new pups and helping them live their best life! Safety is first and I will communicate with you to make sure your dog enjoys their walk and has all their physical or medical needs accounted for. Having two of my own dogs I know how important it is to have peace of mind! My background in addition to pet care and sitting has also involved working with herding dogs on ranches as well as many years of horse, goat, and chicken care! Animals have always been a part of my life and I look forward to using my experience to help you and your animals. SAFETY, COMFORT, and FUN are my highest priorities! I work as a full time artist and walk dogs part time. Typically Sunday through Wednesday are my available days! I’m happy to accommodate your schedule as much as possible. Safety is the priority. Before any walks I will check with you about any safety concerns such as whether your dog has behavioral issues, escapes out the door or out of their collar, or any joint pain or physical limitations they may have. I will tend to stick to routes they are familiar with as this is usually the safest route.
“Literally the best. My dogs love her, and i appreciate her so much!!! She genuinely, GENUINELY cares about my dogs, and goes the extra mile to make them so happy. I couldn’t be more thankful!”

“It was very reassuring having Gavin checking in on our kitty for a week. I appreciate getting the updates and knowing she is getting attention. HIghly recommended!”


About: I’m a lifelong dog person who was selected by the cat distribution system three years ago, read I found an orange tabby under my mailbox. Two cats later (Snowball, a black cat, joined last year), I’ve fully converted. Through my own cats I’ve learned how much good communication matters when you’re away from your pets. I’m experienced with cats of different energy levels and needs, happy to accommodate medications, special diets, or any other requests. My goal is simple: make your cat not even notice you’re gone.
“Vicki did great with my fussy cat. Philly doesn’t take to strangers very easily but she became comfortable with Vicki quickly. Philly allowed Vicki to brush her and played some. Vicki also did some extras around the house as needed. Very good communication with pictures.”

About: Upon having taken care of pets for quite some time now. I have learned that all animals need love and compassion like us. I have cared for a variety of animals from mice to snakes and cats to goats. All of the time learning what to do and not to do with every animal. I've always had animals in my life ever since I was a little and I loved to care for them. I was a foster parent for cats a few years back but had to stop when we moved. I've own a few dogs and enjoy the company they have to give to us. I would be more than happy to take care of your babies and treat them as my own.

“I have a special needs cat that requires expression of the bladder twice a day. Marissa handled this without a problem. She even offered to come back by if my flight was delayed. Both my cats were happy when I got home and house was clean! Recommended and will be calling her back.”


About: Cats have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I currently have three of my own who mean the world to me. I’ve cared for cats from every walk of life and understand that each one has their own personality, boundaries, and needs. I approach every cat with patience, respect, and a calm energy that helps them feel safe and comfortable. I have hands-on experience caring for cats with medical needs, including closely monitoring a rescued kitten through kidney failure and administering IV treatments. I’m also comfortable giving eye drops and have cared for kittens with eye conditions requiring consistent medication. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I take the time to understand their routines, cues, and comfort levels so they feel secure and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I absolutely love pets!! I currently have 4 dogs of my own who are my babies! Everyone that knows me knows my passion for animals!! They are like babies to me! I've had animals all my life and have experience working with animals! I was once a vet tech and also a dog bather! I cherish animals and get excited everytime I see one! I believe there is no better person to trust with any animal than me. I know how to groom dogs as well as nail clipping. I have experience with all ages from puppies to senior dogs. I feel when it comes to animals there is nothing I can not do or handle! If you have any questions feel free to ask! I am very flexible with my schedule, I am basically open 24/7 and can work around your schedule. Time and days should not be an issue. I have fully fenced front and back yard, my fur babies are very friendly with other animals. Your animals would basically be with me the entire time I am watching them.

About: My brother has 2cats Dimple and Meu, and 1 rescue dog Silver. I often walk/sit for him as well as my coworker whenever they go out of town. His pets are 1 cat Gemma and 1 dog Bear. Bear is pretty handicapped needs some assistance and Gemma you have to call home haha, everyone has their routines and im just here to help!

“Dawn was so amazing with our dog Miles. He was new to doggy day care and she helped both of us feel comfortable throughout the whole process. She was careful, considerate, and kind and we can’t wait to work with her again.”

“What a wonderful caring person Michelle is! A last minute booking and I felt totally confidant and at ease leaving our two dogs (including a special needs pup) with her. Happy tired dogs- the best!”

“I am visiting Santa Fe from out of town, and Stephanie took care of my high-energy Labrador for the day. My dog came back to me clean and tired, and Stephanie sent me photos and updates throughout the day. I would definitely take Margot to her again!”

About: I am a reliable and compassionate pet sitter with experience in caring for dogs, cats, and other pets. I can provide in-home pet sitting services, overnight stays, including feeding and walking. My pets and I have a consistent daily routine. We enjoy morning and evening walks around our pet-friendly apartment community, plenty of playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day to keep everyone happy and active. Your pet will be treated like family in a clean, calm, and safe apartment environment. I provide constant supervision, regular potty breaks, fresh water, exercise, and plenty of love, ensuring they feel comfortable, relaxed, and secure during their stay.
About: I've had dogs and taken care of them since I was a young child. As an adult I’ve fostered dogs for over 5 years, taking care of all types of dogs. I have experience potty training, house breaking, bathing, and more. The dogs I have fostered came from all sorts of backgrounds; homeless, abusive households, neglected, seniors, disabled (blind, deaf, hard of hearing, missing limbs). I enjoy spending time with all animals and animals like to be around me. Currently working on my dog trainer certification I have a flexible schedule since I work from home most of the time. As a dog owner myself I spend a lot of time taking care of my dog. We go on walks 3 times a day, he gets treats, cuddles and play time all day long. On the weekends when the weather is nice we like to go for short hikes. Unfortunately I sustained a bad fall in 2024 and broke my back; so I am unable to care for any pet over 50lbs or any pet that is leash reactive or pulls on a leash. Since that would aggravate the injury and most definetely stop me from caring for pets all together; I hope you can understand! I have a small backyard where we go play fetch, we also love going to Frenchy’s or many of the other parks in the area for walks and off leash play when the weather is nice. Going for walks 2-3 times a day around the neighborhood as well
“Eva was amazing! I would highly recommend her to watch your furbaby. She watched our sweet Lohla and sent pictures throughout the day. I can’t say enough kind words to say how thankful we were to Eva to watch our girl!”

“My Chiweenie Bug practically jumps out of the window when we turn onto Melissa's street. Her 3 dogs are the cutest and took to my dog immediately. He comes home happy and tired, what more can you ask for? And she even gave me a recipe for the food she makes for her dogs, and Bug looooves it.”

“Kendell is excellent! We were worried about finding a sitter during a road trip, and we are lucky that Kendell was available to sit Bella for a couple of hours! She is very attentive and took good care of Bella, and even left us a summary of the walks she took her on and how Bella did with her dinner. We are extremely grateful!”

“Iosif was amazing! Great communication from start to finish sent me updates throughout the day with videos and pictures. Iosif was very careful and wanted to make sure that his dog and my dog got along and asked the appropriate questions I was traveling, but if I am in Santa Fe again, I need pet sitting he’ll be my first choice.”

About: Caring for animals comes naturally, and nothing makes me happier than making them feel safe, loved, and at ease. Animals have always been part of my life, as I grew up on a farm surrounded by dogs, cats and more! I've raised puppies from 3 days old, having to bottle feed and potty train...all the way up to seniors, managing meds and declining capabilities. I volunteered at a shelter in Mexico for a year. Through that experience, I was exposed to a lot of medical and behavioral situations, which taught me a lot. My partner and I both work from home, which means your pup will never be lonely. We know how to make dogs feel comfortable, and aim to have them feel like they've taken a little vacation, too! I know leaving your pets can be stressful. I send lots of updates and pictures, so you can feel relaxed and assured your pup is happy and healthy. My partner and I work from home, and have a lot of flexibility in our schedule. We currently have a 10lb Chihuahua, who was left on our doorstep with umbilical cord still attached! At 2 years old now, he's a pretty easy going guy, and likes to be part of a pack from time to time. He usually gets 2 walks a day around the neighborhood. Or, we will do a nice long walk or hike, if time allows. We feed twice a day and provide treats for being a good dog, of course. I love to take work breaks to play tug of war or fetch. Belly rubs are available every night for all four legged residents of the house who want them! Any furry guests would fit seemlessly into our routine. We have a fenced yard, and are always home when pets are in the yard. No dangerous chemicals or pet hazards in our house. Generally, we aren't away from for more than a few hours. We are also happy to take them with us, whenever possible.

“Tami was very professional. You can tell right away she loves dogs and speaks their language. She sent lots of reassuring texts the first time which helped ease our mind since we are over protective dog parents. I will definitely use Tami again!”

“We brought our older dog with us to Santa Fe and realized that in order to see all the lovely art museums we needed to find someone to care for Zippy. Zippy has separation anxiety and we were worried about leaving him for an extended time. We had nothing to worry about. He really enjoyed his time with Victoria! He got to play with other dogs, watch the chickens, take walks. He was living his best life, while we were able to enjoy Santa Fe dog free. It was a win-win for everyone. I highly recommend Victoria for daycare.”

“Our dog had great fun playing with the dogs at the sitter 😁. Laurie took them on a hike one day and our dog had a great time and was nice and tired out for a calm evening 😊. Lily was very excited to go back for her second day! You should be forewarned that her house is down a dirt road with ups and downs. Would definitely recommend this sitter for a social and energetic dog”

About: Professional animal caretaker in the Santa Fe area. I love what I do and can assure you your animals will love me too! Dogs and cats alike. I currently have full availability to meet all of your animals' needs! Message me any time or day. Happy to help! Look forward to hearing from you :) Willing and able to follow all rules and show the utmost respect to you, your space, and most importantly your animals. Your babies your rules!
“Nancy, thank you for taking care of Sadie for us. We are grateful our paths crossed while in NM. I was able to focus on my health emergency in the ER and not worry about our baby. What a great comfort you brought to me, then you went above and beyond meeting us in a snow storm!! Blessings to you!”

“Lana is great! Very communicative. Keeps me super up to date. Really goes above and beyond when trying to form a bond with a dog. My dog can be a stubborn and shy girl when it comes to new people, and Lana has really taken the time to let my dog get to know her with a great deal of patience.”

“Brittany is INCREDIBLE. She is made to be working with animals! I feel blessed to be able to leave my pup in her care when I’m at work. She’s professional, provides great updates (with photos), and is an all around wonderful human. I am so lucky to have found Brittany to care for my puppy.”

About: I love all animals and have extensive experience with cats and dogs, from personally owning them myself to volunteering with local shelters. I have done it all. I am pretty flexible. My daily routine already includes taking care of my 5 rescue cats, which includes feeding them and cleaning their litter areas. I like to make sure I make the pets feel at ease however I can. I know this experience can be anxiety-inducing, and I am patient with all kinds of personalities.

About: I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life so I understand the basics of training and taking care of them. I currently have an orange tabby named Prince who gets along super well with other dogs and cats! No worries if your pet doesn’t get along with others though, I can also have other people watch him while yours stays. I can care for pets whenever, I have classes throughout the week but since I stay on campus I’m never more than 5 minutes walking distance away from my dorm. On average I have about 3 hours of classes per week day so I’m home the rest of the time. I will be able to board always and do dog walks any day of the week. I have reliable transportation as well. My dorm is quite large so I have space to take care of pets, as well as toys and food and a litter box for cats if you can’t bring yours. I also live in a very outdoorsy campus so I can take dogs on long nature walks.
“Gavin was awesome. Very flexible even with my moving process to a new home. Kind man who always sent me 2-3 photos of my dog to reassure me he was with him each day and walked him a good distance for having only 30vminutes to do so. Thanks Gavin!”

“Angel takes such great care of our pup! She’s quick to respond and flexible with our schedule. Can tell from the pictures she sends that our dog is happy and enjoys walks with Angel.”

About: Your four legged BFF(s) will be treated like family when I'm caring for them. I'm here for the scritches, belly rubs, play time, exercise (and whatever else your dog or cat needs). You will get peace of mind knowing your pet will be loved on and attended to while you're away. It's important to me that your furry friend is 100% comfortable, has fun and is happy. I will enforce healthy rules and boundaries and of course lots of snacks and praise for good behavior. I live in an active household with a dog and two cats. We get outdoors as much as we can for hiking, adventures and exercise. I believe that patience, compassion, exercise and strong leadership are key to maintaining healthy, happy, well socialized companions. There is no such thing as a "bad dog" and there is always room for growth and learning opportunities. I have a fenced yard with one friendly dog. I am in between jobs with a flexible schedule. My days are open for adventures or watching your pup at home or dropping in to your place for a visit/play session. I have one friendly senior dog. I can easily accommodate crate training or can keep your dog separate from my dog if preferred. In your home, I will try to be consistent in following your routine as much as possible if preferred. I will tailor my visits/walks to you and your pet's specific needs and preferences.
About: animals are the best, i’ve grown up with cats & dogs my whole life - finally adopting my own in college and they are my bff’s. i always want to find someone reliable & caring to watch my pets when im out of town so i want to provide that service to others !! i’m pretty flexible at the moment! can fit in week days & weekends as well as overnight as necessary - reach out & will work with you! i make sure my pets get alllll the attention, are well cared for and loved as well as properly fed, hydrated and given any other necessary accommodations. i always prioritize a clean house as well! i’m very type A about cleanliness & schedule which my pets sure appreciate!!

About: My pets growing up were 3 dogs Lacy, Maya and Frodo as well as many kitties. Oso was my Cat, we had him from the time I was 4-14years old. We also had a chicken coop we were responsible for, horses that were our landlords but that we fed, and a fish tank with guppies and sucker fish. My 1st gig watching someone else’s pet, was for an elderly woman at my church when I was about 12. Milo was an older golden retriever. I walked him, cleaned his outside restroom area, fed, bathed, and blow-dryed him. Family and friends have always reached out to me for help over the years, I have cared for Rottweilers, pit bulls, small dogs, handicap animals, both cats and dogs. I am great with communicating and accustomed to following the routines their owners have set for them as I believe that is most respectful. My schedule is 8am-1pm. So I am free all afternoons typically Mon-Thursday. Weekend hours vary for me but I am usually available either morning or night. I have stone floors 1 roll out carpet, and live in a non-smoking apartment. I have a small backyard with dirt area and kennel. Willing to do house visits as well! Don’t mind taking dogs to parks in my car either as long as it’s okay with the owner.

About: Bachelors in animal science, with an emphasis in companion animal care and medicine. Two years veterinary experience. I have companion animal training experience and education. Pet care is an important part of my weekly routine. I dedicate time to exercise, feeding, and monitoring pets’ health, ensuring they get the attention and care they need every day. This routine helps me stay connected with animals and maintain my skills in handling different needs, from playful puppies to senior pets requiring extra support. I provide attentive care by staying in owners’ homes or doing daily check-ins, ensuring pets feel comfortable, safe, and well-cared for in their own environment.
About: I’ve loved furbabies (dogs & cats and basically any living being) my whole life and grew up helping care for them from a young age. My pup Taz, who I adopted at 10 weeks old, has taught me so much about canine behavior and care. He is currently almost five years old and thriving. I used to work fully remote and we've lived the best van life for a few years, so he's been through and seen it all from coast to coast. I also have over seven years of hands-on experience helping my mom, a dog breeder, care for 20+ litters of puppies. Through that, I’ve built strong skills in puppy care, socialization, and basic training. I’ve even helped certify therapy dogs and participated in visits to hospitals and community spaces, so I’m comfortable handling dogs in different environments. I work a hybrid schedule, (mainly home most of the time) which allows me to give your furbabies lots of attention throughout the day. I make sure they get regular walks, playtime, and personalized care so they feel safe, comfortable, and well-loved. As a deaf person, I’m highly observant and attentive, which naturally carries into how I care for your furbabies. I build pet care into my daily routine to ensure they receive consistent attention, structure, and love. Each day typically starts with a morning walk or playtime, followed by feeding and a quick check in to make sure your furbaby is comfortable and doing well. With a super flexible schedule, I can also include enrichment, play, and outdoor outings when appropriate, while balancing that with plenty of calm rest and supervised downtime. In the evening, we usually have another walk or play session, followed by dinner and a relaxed wind down. Overall, I maintain a steady routine of walks, meals, play, rest, and close observation so your furbabies feel secure, supported, and well cared for. I provide steady supervision, regular walks, and engaging activities like playtime and light training. With your approval, I can also take dogs out for walks and social time at a nearby park. I keep a calm, structured routine with a balance of activity and downtime, and I always follow your furbaby's usual schedule to help them feel comfortable and settled. My pup, Taz, is a social butterfly! He adores and gets along with every single pup he has ever encountered from all over the United States while on the road. If your furbaby wants company, he will be the perfect duo. If your furbaby wants to chill, he will gladly give them space to chill. I call Taz the "Rover Whisperer".
About: Look no further!! I’m the answer to all your dog’s needs… I respond very quickly, so please reach out. Let’s do a meet and greet ASAP!! Please read my profile and be sure to check out my photo gallery where you’ll see what kind of fun that we have on a daily basis. My reviews should give you an idea of what to expect when you book with me. I will send tons of pictures and videos every day. Headed out of town?? I’d love to stay with your dogs and create a seamless stress free opportunity for you to get away. Or we can all stay at my place with AC, a fenced in yard, and many neighborhood parks nearby. My house is in a safe and quiet neighborhood right across the street from Frenchy Field. Rest assured that they will be cared for as if they were my own while having the comfort and familiarity of your home, or the tons of fun that goes on at my place. I love all dogs unconditionally. I can provide a much smaller pack environment for your dog rather than a kennel where there could be 50 dogs at a time. Yikes!! I only accept dogs from one to two owners at a time so please plan ahead as I may get booked very quickly. This ensures that I can give your dogs the attention and care that they deserve. My daily routine revolves around my pack needs. Our routine is generally foods, walks, parks, poops, pees, plays, sleeps, repeat…. I am flexible and can accommodate pretty much any type of needs for your pets. I am ready to come care for your pets whenever I am available. Everything from simple walks and feeding to extended stays at my place or yours, it sounds like fun to me. I have a full time best friend and dog named Spreckles who is pretty close to perfect. His nickname is Sprex. He is Hawaiian, so naturally he is very friendly and mellow with tons of Aloha. My number one priority is pack safety. I follow a daily routine and consistent schedule with my pack. Our day always starts with a nice walk to a nearby park. I use my own custom made leash system that I can walk many dogs at the same time, safely and securely. When we’re not out walking or at the park we do a lot of chilling and hanging out around our house and fenced in yard. I promote the pack mentality among my dogs as I am always their pack leader who ensures their safety and protection all the time. I’m glad to use your dog’s crate at my house whenever I am not home if needed (not typical). Sometimes I take the pack out on planned field trips, usually afternoons and weekends, to various places throughout the area. Frenchy Park is right across the street from my house and super fun for the pups. I treat and protect each dog as if they were my own and love them all unconditionally. FYI, I don’t introduce my pack to other dogs that we don’t know, to avoid any unwanted drama and to keep everyone safe. New dogs really shouldn’t be introduced while on leashes anyway. I speak the language of dogs and am confident around them always. I am always their alpha who provides a fun and safe space for my pack.
About: I grew up in a household with cats, dogs, small mammals, exotic and domestic birds, reptiles, and fish. I have experience as both a short and long term pet/house sitter. A large portion of my life has been spent working at pet stores, aquariums, wildlife rehabilitation facilities and with animal trainers so I have good background knowledge surrounding a large variety of animal care. By trade I am a biologist with a focus in the marine sciences. As a full-time field biologist, the field part of my job doesn’t allow me time to have pets of my own. So between field jobs I greatly enjoy the opportunity to pet sit since I have lots of time to dedicate to your pet! I feel that pet sitting is a great way to get some animal time in while also helping out. I am very attentive, caring, trustworthy, and dedicated. Every home has a routine and flow all its own, one of the most important things a sitter can do is maintain that rythem while the pet parent is away, and give lots of extra love too. Thank you for taking the time to review my information, I would be thrilled to speak with you about how we can work together to meet you and your pets needs.

“This was our second time boarding with Amanda and our little pup was excited to be back, wagging her tail the second she saw Amanda. Great to know she enjoys the stay and is well cared for when we are away!”

“Gavin did a great job with our dog Juneau. We got some nice pics every day to see how Juneau was doing there. It was a calm, home setting for dog stays with a safe fenced in area as well. Will be back in the future.”

“Stef was amazing!!! She cared so much for our dogs while they were with her. I am a nervous dog mom so I’m concerned any time my “kids” aren’t with me BUT Stef made it easy. She sent lots of updates to let me know what they were up to and how they were doing. She was also very flexible with us as our schedule changed. Stef was exceedingly patient and always willing to help our family. We would be grateful for the opportunity to leave our dogs with her again! 10 out of 5 stars! 😁”

“We needed a place for Finnley for a long holiday weekend. He absolutely enjoyed his college visit and came back with a higher education and some new tricks. Isabella was incredibly responsive and flexible with our schedule while taking amazing care of Finn and keeping us updated about his adventures. We think he is excited to go back and visit his new feline friend Prince.”

“Our Dog had a blast staying with Katie, 10/10 would recommend. We’re not sure if our dog even wanted to come back with us after his amazing vacation with Katie and her Husband.”

“The best thing about going on vacation is to know that your dogs might have a vacation as well! Angel took care of my 2 dogs in a caring and safe place. My dogs were welcomed at her house as their own. I loved the constant updates. I would like to book with her in a near future knowing that my dogs are happy at her place.”


“Tami was great. She took my dogs over a holiday weekend with very little notice. She was very thorough in making sure everyone was up to date on vaccinations (even helped me find a goof by one of my vets). She had a lovely secure yard and was very skilled and dog centered in her care of my little guys. They were happy and rested when I picked them up. Overall, a great experience”

“Brooke was phenomenal. I feel lucky to have found her and think she's an absolute gem on this app. I will definitely be using her again to take care of Luna, would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter! It was a huge relief to know that Luna was being so well attended to. She seemed really happy and like she settled in with Brooke right away and Brooke's communication was amazing. I received lots of updates and photos.”

“Michelle was a terrific dog sitter, caring, attentive and I know my dog enjoyed his time at her house. She sent photos daily which I appreciated and her dog and mine got along great. Thanks so much!”

“Whenever I travel, just knowing that Rossen is having fun or relaxing with Nancy and her sweet dog Benny makes me feel so at ease. It really lets me focus on what I need to do, without worrying about him at all”

“Mark was very kind and took great care of Piper. He sent me pics and took her for walks and trips to the dog park. He was good at communicating. I felt Piper was in good hands and I would definitely book with him again in the future.”

“Patricia was very easy to work with and was great communicating. My dog loved being at her house and getting to play with Gila and Cedar. I loved that my dog was able to have a lot of outdoor time to soak up the sunshine.”

“Ari had a great stay with Tara and her pups. He came back vibrant, happy, full of energy. Tara is super flexible, easy to work with, highly communicative, sends great pictures and videos. Truly could not ask for more.”

“Lisette went above and beyond for us and our pups! They enjoyed the fenced yard and the opportunity to play with Luna! Lisette gave us amazing updates with photos and videos even when our phone service was spotty she still sent us pupdates regularly. This was our first time using Rover, as well as leaving our pups with someone who was not in our family, and we could not be happier! We feel they received the best treatment from Lisette (sorry to my family members— but it’s true) that we have ever received for our dogs while we were out of town. Lisette is also all around so incredibly kind and caring. We won’t hesitate to reach out next time! :) thank you Lisette!”

“Charity and Ray were fantastic. We are so happy we found two dog lovers so close to us. They are extremely communicative, thoughtful, and gave Charlee lots of walks and attention. Charlee isn't the easiest dog to care for but they didn't mind for a second. There's nothing better than having someone you know is taking great care of your fur-friend while you are away, and Charity and Ray gave that to us.”
