“I recently had Cherissa watch over my mini Goldendoodle, Sofia, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very first interaction, she was professional, kind, and clearly passionate about animals. Cherissa and her family took the time to get to know Sofia’s routine, preferences, and any special needs, which made me feel totally at ease. While I was away, she provided regular updates—including photos and messages—which really reassured me that my pet was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Cherissa and her family to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care. I’ll definitely be booking with them again in the future!”
“Jeff was great!! His setup he has for the dogs is top notch, super impressive. Jeff sent pics and updates throughout the day the whole time my pups were with him. My pups had a blast playing with his pup as well. Will definitely book again. Thanks Jeff!!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. Mildred and her family treated my dog as one of their own for the few days that he was there and when I picked him up, I felt like I was part of the family as well. I got photos regularly and I knew that everything went perfect. I will 100% book again. I can tell that my dog made new friends so even if I don't need to board him overnight again, I know that I can drop him off to hang out with his new friends. I prefer this option over boarding/daycare at a facility where your pets may not get the same level of attention and care. 10/10 Recommend!”
“Kenniqua was amazing! She took such special care of my Dolly. She went above and beyond, giving her such wonderful care. Dolly will love going back there anytime! 🐾❤️”
“Donna is absolutely great, very nice, accommodating and very punctual. She sent many pictures with our dog, who seemed very happy and well taken care of. We are very pleased to have met her and shall definitely contact her again for future bookings. Thank you, Donna!”
“Maria (and family) were lifesavers and saved our trip by having availability last minute when another sitter canceled on us. Our dogs looked so happy and loved while we were gone. Definetly recommend and look forward to using her again!”
“Brittany was reliable and timely in communicating. Our fur babies had a good time with her and they came home feeling good. She was polite to interact with. We will be using her again if we need a sitter!”
“Lyanne is such a wonderful host! Our dogs LOVE staying with her and her husband! We have gone to Lyanne many times and sh is our first call when we need boarding for our pups.”
“EXCELLENT IN ALL WAYS - TOP NOTCH !!!!!!! SHE HAS DOGS, FERRETS AND A BIRD - SHE SIMPLY LOVES ANIMALS AND IT SHOWS !!!!!!!!! We traveled over an hour to drop our 13 month old puppy off - sure there were closer providers BUT NONE LIKE HER !!!!!!!!! WILL USE HER EVERY TIME - NOONE ELSE !!!!!!! Had daily communication along with a lot of pictures !!!!!!!”
“Boarding Charlie at David's place went great. David was communicative throughout, and he was undaunted by Charlie's complicated medicine schedule. He even figured out a new way to get Charlie to take his pills. He also supervised his little kids around Charlie to be sure Charlie didn't get overwhelmed. I'd definitely use him again.”
“I cannot recommend Stephen enough. He took amazing care of our Buddy while we were away. He communicated and sent us videos and updates every day. He was cautious when introducing Buddy to the other dogs in his care and we had a meet and greet prior to the stay which I appreciate, he goes above and beyond to make sure the dogs in his care are compatible to keep all dogs safe. I look forward to using him in the future and I know Buddy will too. You can see that dogs in Stephens care are treated as his own and that is so comforting when leaving your dog in his care.”
“Gretchen took excellent care of my dog while I was away. He seemed very happy during his stay. I also received daily photos and updates about how he was doing. I'll definitely use Gretchen's services again.”
“Erika was amazing. She kept me posted all the time with pictures and she helped my boy with his anxiety of staying away from us. The peace of mind of finding someone we can trust our dog with its really the best.”
“Dew dog sat my dog for 3 days and 2 nights. I am very happy with his stay. He was individually cared for, even though there were other dogs there. Dew sent emails and pictures daily. I would definitely use her again to watch my dog. Thank you Dew 🦋”
“I was caught in a bind as I was moving and my current place had to cancel due to the weather. This is my first time using Rover and I needed to find someone to watch my pup. River is a bit reserved and can be very nervous. Pam is a life saver. She sent pictures throughout her visit and I was completely at ease during a very stressful move. I will definitely recommend Pam and will reach out to her again whenever I need a sitter for my girl. Thanks a million. You are the best!!!”
“I had a last minute request and Jomini responded almost immediately and saved the day. She asked questions to make sure my dog had the proper precautions to be outdoors at her place and checked with me about any specific schedule before drop off. She was super responsive and flexible with timing for drop off / pick up. She sent so many pictures of my dog and I could see he was having a great time!”
“Our little guy, Wrigley, had an absolutely wonderful stay with Judy and Steven! I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a warm, welcoming environment for their pup. As a beagle, Wrigley usually hates being left behind—but I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. He got the royal treatment with pup cups, plenty of love and attention, and he even made a new friend in their sweet dog, Ginger. Thank you, Judy and Steven, for making Wrigley feel so at home and for giving me such peace of mind!”

About: Hi, I’m Amanda! I’m a certified animal lover who wants to help keep your fur babies happy when life keeps you busy. I’ve owned dogs my whole life, from tiny chihuahuas to large mastiffs, I’m well versed with all sizes and breeds. I currently have a 2yo Pomeranian who loves playing, learning tricks, and meeting new friends. I also have a 1yo tuxedo cat who loves cuddles and catnip. You can depend on me to take great care of your pets. I can take them on walks, engage in play, keep them company and/or fill their bellies for mealtime. Please just let me know your pets specific needs and preferences and I’ll make sure they are comfy and happy! I just relocated and have a lot of free time to care and play with your fur babies! From the work week to the weekend, I’m available to walk, watch, feed, play, or entertain I have a friendly, playful Pomeranian who loves dogs over people. He would be happy to keep your pup company and play the day away! But if your fur baby prefers their own space, I can easily separate using my baby gates.
About: Hi, I’m Cory! I’ve been around dogs for most of my life and have many years of hands on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I grew up with multiple dogs of my own and have also cared for many dogs and cats through Rover over the years. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I do have a kitten named Callie who is very friendly and accustomed to the dogs that stay with us. Your dog does not need to be cat friendly to stay with me. If your dog doesn’t do well with cats, just let me know ahead of time so I can make arrangements to keep Callie safely separated and give your dog their own space. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pet while you’re away. My goal is to make every dog in my care feel safe, comfortable, loved, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs and am happy to follow specific feeding schedules, walking routines, sleeping arrangements, and other instructions you provide. I’m also experienced with administering medications, including oral medications and insulin injections, and I’m comfortable caring for dogs who require a little extra attention as part of their daily routine. I currently work at a middle school on weekdays until 1:45 PM. While I’m at work, my husband is home with our three children, so dogs staying with us are never left home alone during that time. Once I’m home, I’m available to provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, and companionship. We also have a fully fenced in yard, giving dogs plenty of space to safely get outside, stretch their legs, play, and enjoy some fresh air throughout the day. IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING: Because this is a family home with children and I may care for dogs from more than one household, all dogs staying with me must be friendly and safe around children. Dogs must also be friendly with other dogs unless we have discussed and arranged a private stay in advance. If your dog is not dog friendly or you are unsure how they behave around other dogs, I may still be able to accommodate them ONLY when arranged with me ahead of time and I have no other dogs scheduled to board during their stay. Please contact me before booking so I can confirm whether I’m able to provide a private stay for your requested dates. Otherwise, dogs staying with me must be comfortable and safe around other dogs. For the safety of my family and every animal in my care, I ask that you be completely open with me about your dog’s personality, habits, medical needs, anxieties, triggers, and typical behavior. The more I know about your dog beforehand, the better I can make their stay comfortable, safe, and enjoyable. I know leaving your pet with someone else can be stressful, and I want you to feel confident knowing they’re being treated like part of the family while they’re here. You can depend on me to provide attentive, reliable, and loving care and to treat your pet as I would my own. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or tell me a little about your pet before booking. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐾 I'm off from work during the summer and during the school year I work at a middle school until 1:45. While I’m gone, my family will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I will do anything to make your pup feel comfortable and at home away from home during his stay with me. I love detailed instructions so please feel free to let me know everything about your pet! I have a fenced in yard and 2 children who are huge dog lovers who would love to keep your dog(s) busy and keep them company!
“Natalie is the best! She is kind, on-time, and sent photos throughout the entire process. I felt confident leaving my pets & home in Natalie's care. Will definitely book her for my next vacation, and you should too!”
“I was in California for 5 days, far away from my sweet cat. I did not worry about her at all though, because Jenna showed up on time, fed my kitty, and made sure she had water and a clean litter box. She sent me lots of photos and a video every day so I knew she was being well cared for. It was obvious from the photos that Emmie loved Jenna’s visits. When we arrived home, Emmie was calm and happy. I would definitely hire Jenna again to care for my cat when I am away.”
About: Your pet's care is my absolute priority, and I pride myself on being adaptable to meet their needs. Whether you need early morning car, overnight stays, and/or long term vacation care. I'll work to create a schedule that gives your furry family member the attention they deserve. Life can be unpredictable, and I understand that sometimes plans change - I'm here to provide that peace of mind and flexibility when you need it most.
“Kelly was very reliable and resourceful. She followed our instructions to the letter, including the locking of the back deck slider--not easy to do. Our cats were content and even the skittish cat who avoids everyone, came out to say "Hi" to Kelly when she came in--that says so much. I would indeed recommend Kelly and Rover for cat and dog home services when you need to be away from home.”
“Kasey was great. She took great care of our cat and sent photos each day. She even replaced our lizard’s bulb that burnt out right when we left for our trip. If not replaced, we may have lost our lizard. We can’t thank Kasey enough for that and taking such great care of Koto. We would welcome Kasey back!”
“This was our first time using Maryline as a pet sitter and she did a great job with our three kitties. My one cat can be stubborn about taking his medication and she was able to persuade him. She was also very response. Would definitely recommend : )”
“Donna took great care of my kitties! She kept me updated while I was away, especially relieving my concerns that my littlest one wouldn’t eat. She was prompt and made sure they got their treats - thanks Donna!”
“Lauren was so sweet with my two cats, both my diabetic old man and my younger “ornery” cat. She is responsible, communicative, and most of all, caring. I would highly recommend Lauren for any pet sitting position, and I know my boys look forward to seeing her again”
About: I’m comfortable with basic cat care including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to follow your cat’s normal routine closely and any specific care instructions you provide. If your cat prefers space, I’m also perfectly happy to respect that and keep their visit calm and low-stress.
“Deidre was very sweet, gentle and punctual. My little dog felt very well with her while special feeding, dispensing medication, and being carried outside. We would think of her in the future. Highly recommended.”

“My dog loves to go to Stephen’s for doggie daycare and comes home tired from her day there. I feel comfortable having her there and I will be using Stephen again to watch my pup.”

“Weina was flexible with our drop off/pick up time for Finnegan which was much appreciated! She took our sweet pup out on three long walks over a 7+ hour period plus additional short potty and water breaks. She sent updates and photos throughout the stay. Quick to respond to our request and any additional outreach!”
“It was my first time using this app, and definitely I am happy I did with Brittany. She is so lovely, gentle and she knew how to approach to my babies since it was their first time staying with a stranger. When I picked them up, 3 hours later, they were looking so happy and very confident. Brittany is very professional and She showed love and care for my babies, definitely I will go to her if I need to leave my babies again. ☺️”
“I was really nervous I never left Angel with anyone before that I didn’t know or wasn’t family. I really recommend and appreciated the updates from Mario! Thank you again!”
About: I have cared for dogs my entire life, including my own pets and those of family members. My experience ranges from energetic 8-week-old puppies to senior dogs, and from tiny teacup Yorkies to Labs, Newfoundlands, and Great Danes. I’m comfortable administering medication and adjusting care to each dog’s age, size, routine, and personality. Although I’m new to boarding through Rover, I work from home full-time, so your dog will receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship. Dogs are welcome to relax on the furniture, roam comfortably throughout the house, and enjoy supervised playtime in my fully fenced yard. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely at home while you’re away. I work from home full-time, so caring for your pet can easily fit into my daily routine. Dogs will have frequent opportunities for potty breaks, supervised time in the fenced yard, indoor play, rest, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Feeding, medication, walks, and bedtime routines can be adapted to match what your pet is accustomed to at home. Because I am home throughout the day, your pet will have consistent companionship and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods. I want every pet staying with me to feel safe, comfortable, and part of the household. Dogs are welcome to roam throughout the home, relax on the furniture, and enjoy supervised playtime in my fully fenced yard. I follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medication, activity, sleeping arrangements, and household rules so that the pet’s routine remains as familiar as possible. I also adjust care to each dog’s age, energy level, size, and personality—whether that means active play for a puppy, companionship for an adult dog, or a quieter and more supportive routine for a senior.
“Wanda welcomes my pups warmly each time. They really enjoy all the play time including with her super sweet pup. No matter how much energy they come with she always tires them out. She has made them feel comfortable. They anxiously jump out of the car to greet her each time. We are really happy and will continue to use Wanda.”
“Maryline is amazing! It was my first time leaving my puppy all day, and she made it way easier than i thought. She is so sweet and caring and my pup felt comfortable right away. She sent so many pictures that made me feel as ease and her you could tell my puppy loved her sons, and they kept him playing and busy which tuckered him out. Highly recommend her for any of your fur babies needs. I know that she is now my #1 go to person for my little Theo!”
About: I’ve had animals my whole life and have always genuinely enjoyed caring for them and treating them as if they were my own. I am gentle, loving, trustworthy and dependable. I adapt quickly and comfortably to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I’m happy to provide walks, feedings, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’ve also worked for the past six years caring for children and adults with autism and other intellectual and physical disabilities. My experience as a caregiver has taught me patience, attentiveness, responsibility, and, most importantly, how important it is to have someone you can truly trust caring for someone you love. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my #1 priority. I also want to build a relationship with them so they feel safe, comfortable, and just as loved while in my care as they do with their family. ❤️ I currently have open availability, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for & play with your pets! I’m available throughout the week and on weekends and can easily accommodate different schedules. I provide a safe, clean, comfortable and loving environment where your pet will receive plenty of attention and supervision. I’ll follow any routines and instructions you provide. I live in an apartment with no animals currently so your pet will always be close by and well supervised. ❤️
“I feel beyond lucky to have found Krystal to watch over my sweet Sky. From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely cared—not just about the job, but about building a real connection with Sky. Throughout the entire week, Krystal went above and beyond in every way. She made sure Sky had a safe and comfortable way to enjoy the outdoors by providing a lead and took her on frequent walks to keep her active and happy. What meant the most to me was seeing how excited Sky was every time she saw Krystal. That kind of bond and trust doesn’t happen easily, and it gave me so much peace knowing Sky was in such loving hands. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly dedicated, I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you, Krystal, for everything!”
“David was great with our two dogs!! He gave them excellent and attentive care with plenty of updates and photos. I felt peace knowing they were comfortable and safe!”
“Nayeli was a great dog sitter. She had our 2 pups for more than 9 hours. I could tell right from the first meeting that she would provide good care. She was also very patient with me as I tried to figure out how to navigate the Metro North Train into The Bronx. She even gave me information on an app that helped. We used her service so we could go to a NY Yankees game, which was rain delayed. The train back to Poughkeepsie was also later than planned but Nayeli worked with us without complaint. We'd definitely recommend her.”
“Dottie LOVED Leah! She had a blast hanging with her all day and meeting new dog friends. Dottie was pooped by the end of the day from all the fun she had. Leah took great care of her!”
“Ann Marie is a kind, responsible pet sitter for my sweet, timid dog. She was easy to communicate with. She has a large fenced in yard that is perfect for dogs. She sent updates and understood my shy guy’s special personality. We are happy to have a reliable local dog sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Kimmie is so sweet, and she's a wonderful, calm presence around my dog! He had a great time at her house. We can't wait to be her regular client. She's extremely communicative, welcoming, and listened to all of our needs. Thanks Kimmie!”
About: Hello! I’ve worked in many animal related industries including boarding and LLivestock management. This has given me ample experience in care and a nuanced understanding of animal emotion and signals. I provide attentive care and seek to accommodate the individual needs of all animals in my care. They will be well-watched and cared for! I work from home with my sweet dog Rae. We take frequent potty breaks and time to chase sticks and toys. Dog care is built into my schedule, which is flexible to accommodate any needs your dog might have. Our large yard is not fenced but we keep an avid eye on all dogs at play. If desired, we have a tracker collar that gives us live updates of their location to ensure extra precautions. If your dog loves to run and play they will have play of space to do so! Rae is a great play companion but also gives other dogs space if they would like.

“We are so glad we met Stephanie! Upon her arrival, our two 70+ lb pups were bouncy and very excited to meet her. Before even entering the house, she got them to sit and get calm. She shared great photos and didn’t leave the house until she made sure the pups had what they needed to be comfortable for the rest of the day. Our pups can’t wait to see her again!!”
“Amanda was great with Ana, my high-energy rescue, and managed to tire her out during a long school day for me! Very caring and kind! Was accommodating during our meet and greet and extremely attentive to Ana. Loved all the updates and ease of communication. Ana is definitely excited for her next walk with Amanda”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and know firsthand how important consistent, detailed care can be. My own dog has GI issues and requires a very specific diet, medication, and feeding routine, so I’m very comfortable following special instructions and keeping a close eye on changes in appetite, behavior, and routine. As a registered nurse, I’m dependable, observant, and used to being detail-oriented. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, medications, playtime, litter box care, and plenty of updates and photos while you’re away. I work a set nursing schedule and have availability on select weekdays, evenings, and weekends. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and can be flexible with drop-ins, walks, feeding times, and medication schedules when planned in advance. I take pet care seriously and always follow the owner’s instructions closely. I pay attention to feeding, medications, bathroom habits, behavior, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. I’m careful with doors, leashes, gates, and each pet’s individual routine, and I’ll send updates and photos so you know how they’re doing while you’re away.
About: Hi- I have been a dog sitter from a young age for a family with 5 golden retrievers. Unfortunately, they have since passed on as time passes by. As an adult now in a new area I decided to check out this type of opportunity online. I am a complete animal lover and would treat your pet as my own. Showing it affection, attention, & provide with the care it needs while you are unavailable. I also have a mellow adult lab myself that I would be happy to bring for playdates as requested. Rates and availability are TBD as mentioned I am new to the site and do work full time during week. I am available mornings, evenings, & weekends! :) Look forward to seeing what opportunities are in my area. After getting laid off of my job after 13 years I have decided for now I'd rather be around animals & am happy to do so with open availability. Warm weather is coming & I would be happy to either hang out with your pet in your yard or take them for walks. Whatever suits your needs! I am an animal lover & will be excited to treat your pet as my own. I will also treat your home with complete care in your absence.
“Mary takes care of my dog as if he were her own(in fact I think she spoils him even more than I do!). I am at ease knowing I can work double shifts & my boy is being taken care of.”
“I had an excellent experience with Thomas-James C. He demonstrated great patience and professionalism throughout the process. His communication was outstanding — he consistently provided updates, photos, and detailed feedback after each walk. Despite some initial challenges during the first walk, he remained composed and committed to ensuring my dog’s comfort and safety. My dog responded very well to him, and I was impressed by his dedication and reliability. I would highly recommend his services and will certainly be using them again in the future.”
About: i’ve been taking care of dogs ever since I was a little girl. I helped my mom out every day with our two dogs that I have in my house and I help my grandpa out with his dog as well. I used to have 100-140 pound Pitbull‘s so I am able to work with big dogs as well. One of my dogs at home is blind, so I do take extra care of him and I am able to work with dogs that need a little extra care I am currently attending college at stony brook university. I am looking for a job to keep me busy but manageable with classes. I am also missing my dogs back at home so I would love to be able to tend to other peoples dogs!! I am available every day of the week, the hours do differ each day depending on my classes that day! I have 2 dogs at home. One of them is blind so i do have to take extra care of him. I take my dogs on daily walks/runs. I also pet sit for my families and friends. My other do at home is very hyper and needs a lot of exercise and I tend to be the one in my family who takes her out and plays with her.
“Alex was delightful to meet in person for our meet and greet and treated our pup with kindness. Even though Penny hates walking in the rain, Alex got her outside and then played a bit indoors. Fantastic!”
“Mario is excellent i highly recommend him. he goes the extra mile to help out making sure the dogs are comfortable and really appreciate him being so flexible with the schedule”

“Jeff was great!! His setup he has for the dogs is top notch, super impressive. Jeff sent pics and updates throughout the day the whole time my pups were with him. My pups had a blast playing with his pup as well. Will definitely book again. Thanks Jeff!!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. Mildred and her family treated my dog as one of their own for the few days that he was there and when I picked him up, I felt like I was part of the family as well. I got photos regularly and I knew that everything went perfect. I will 100% book again. I can tell that my dog made new friends so even if I don't need to board him overnight again, I know that I can drop him off to hang out with his new friends. I prefer this option over boarding/daycare at a facility where your pets may not get the same level of attention and care. 10/10 Recommend!”
“Kenniqua was amazing! She took such special care of my Dolly. She went above and beyond, giving her such wonderful care. Dolly will love going back there anytime! 🐾❤️”
“Brittany was reliable and timely in communicating. Our fur babies had a good time with her and they came home feeling good. She was polite to interact with. We will be using her again if we need a sitter!”
“Lyanne is such a wonderful host! Our dogs LOVE staying with her and her husband! We have gone to Lyanne many times and sh is our first call when we need boarding for our pups.”
“Boarding Charlie at David's place went great. David was communicative throughout, and he was undaunted by Charlie's complicated medicine schedule. He even figured out a new way to get Charlie to take his pills. He also supervised his little kids around Charlie to be sure Charlie didn't get overwhelmed. I'd definitely use him again.”
“I cannot recommend Stephen enough. He took amazing care of our Buddy while we were away. He communicated and sent us videos and updates every day. He was cautious when introducing Buddy to the other dogs in his care and we had a meet and greet prior to the stay which I appreciate, he goes above and beyond to make sure the dogs in his care are compatible to keep all dogs safe. I look forward to using him in the future and I know Buddy will too. You can see that dogs in Stephens care are treated as his own and that is so comforting when leaving your dog in his care.”
“Gretchen took excellent care of my dog while I was away. He seemed very happy during his stay. I also received daily photos and updates about how he was doing. I'll definitely use Gretchen's services again.”
“Erika was amazing. She kept me posted all the time with pictures and she helped my boy with his anxiety of staying away from us. The peace of mind of finding someone we can trust our dog with its really the best.”
“Dew dog sat my dog for 3 days and 2 nights. I am very happy with his stay. He was individually cared for, even though there were other dogs there. Dew sent emails and pictures daily. I would definitely use her again to watch my dog. Thank you Dew 🦋”
“Our little guy, Wrigley, had an absolutely wonderful stay with Judy and Steven! I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a warm, welcoming environment for their pup. As a beagle, Wrigley usually hates being left behind—but I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring hands. He got the royal treatment with pup cups, plenty of love and attention, and he even made a new friend in their sweet dog, Ginger. Thank you, Judy and Steven, for making Wrigley feel so at home and for giving me such peace of mind!”
“Maryline and her family were wonderful. My dog had a lovely time. She sent me updates (with pictures) multiple times a day. I'd recommend her service to anyone.”
About: I have cared for dogs my entire life, including my own pets and those of family members. My experience ranges from energetic 8-week-old puppies to senior dogs, and from tiny teacup Yorkies to Labs, Newfoundlands, and Great Danes. I’m comfortable administering medication and adjusting care to each dog’s age, size, routine, and personality. Although I’m new to boarding through Rover, I work from home full-time, so your dog will receive plenty of supervision, attention, and companionship. Dogs are welcome to relax on the furniture, roam comfortably throughout the house, and enjoy supervised playtime in my fully fenced yard. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely at home while you’re away. I work from home full-time, so caring for your pet can easily fit into my daily routine. Dogs will have frequent opportunities for potty breaks, supervised time in the fenced yard, indoor play, rest, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Feeding, medication, walks, and bedtime routines can be adapted to match what your pet is accustomed to at home. Because I am home throughout the day, your pet will have consistent companionship and supervision rather than being left alone for long periods. I want every pet staying with me to feel safe, comfortable, and part of the household. Dogs are welcome to roam throughout the home, relax on the furniture, and enjoy supervised playtime in my fully fenced yard. I follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medication, activity, sleeping arrangements, and household rules so that the pet’s routine remains as familiar as possible. I also adjust care to each dog’s age, energy level, size, and personality—whether that means active play for a puppy, companionship for an adult dog, or a quieter and more supportive routine for a senior.
“Thalya did an amazing job taking care of our 3-year-old dog, Lucky Oreo. She was incredibly responsive, sending regular updates that kept us reassured and informed. Her loving care and attention made all the difference, and Lucky Oreo was clearly happy and well looked after. We highly recommend Thalya for her exceptional pet-sitting services!”
“outstanding sitter, truly cares about our dog! Consistent in communication, excellent at following instructions for our dog with extreme allergies and sensitivities. Her home is safe and i can count on her family to give our dog the best care when we leave town. Our go-to sitter, i highly recommend this family!”
“Mario was so great to work with. He was thoughtful, kind, sent lots of cute updates, and most importantly he treated Eiger like a part of his family! I felt super confident leaving Eiger with him for the weekend. Thanks Mario!”
“We’ve left our pup Soup here for daycare and overnight boarding and each time he comes back tired and happy! He gets great outdoor play time with other dogs and cuddle time with the humans. We will definitely be using their services again.”
“Saori was great. Our one year old lab was in heaven at their place. We received a puppy that was well cared for and had gotten a lot of socialization and exercise is a safe environment.”
