“Annette was a wonderful sitter and we will definitely use her again. She took great care of our dog giving her lots of personal attention. Our dog came home happy and relaxed after her time with Annette.”
“Pam was great. She posted a lot of pictures to let us know Luna was having fun and communicated daily. You could tell she had a lot of experience with dogs and with petting sitting/boarding. We would definitely use Pam again for the next time we go out of town.”
“Daisy lived her overnight stay with Saori. She came home happy and super relaxed. I loved getting photo updates throughout her stay. I knew Daisy was in good hands and it helped make my trip so much more enjoyable knowing she was safe and well cared for. I’ll be booking again soon.”
“Highly recommend Erika’s services. From the intro meet-up to the first stay pick-up she was very easy going, super responsive and took great care of our precious babies. 💛✨🐾 ✨💛”
“We are so grateful for the amazing care you gave Cloud while we were away! You went above and beyond—keeping us updated the whole time and sending the sweetest pictures that truly put our mind at ease. It was clear he was in great hands. Til next time!”
“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 🦋”
“My Bassett loved it at Rich’s! Rich does a great job of making his space dog friendly and making sure everyone is getting along. My dog was definitely not as happy to see me as he normally is after being separated 🤣 That means a lot to us both, thanks Rich!”
About: I have been grooming dogs for over 18 years, and boarding clients' pups in my home for 16 years. My 13 yr old homeschooled son and I adore all dogs. We have 2 wonderful medium sized girls (Myla 8, Josie 1.5) who love all dogs and people! My career in grooming means I truly 'speak dog' and understand their quirks and needs. I have extensive experience with all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I'm comfortable administering oral and injectible medications, as well as supplements. Our dogs eat a raw diet, so food & water bowls get sterilized after each meal. Since we homeschool, we spend a lot of time at home or close by with friends. My son often has friends over who love to play with dogs. This means we have a great balance of calm & quiet time, as well as active & fun time. Our lovely property has Invisible Fence for about a acre, so any dogs trained on it get to enjoy lots of untethered play time. Every dog who stays gets a temporary ID tag with my address and phone number in case of accidental 'escape' We love couch cuddles, and both of our girls sleep in bed with my son. We also have dog beds everywhere, and crates & gates available when needed.
“Nicole was very good with my dog. My dog needed medicine daily and she was happy to help with that She sent updates regularly and I could tell my dog enjoyed being at her place.”
“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!”
“Stephen is a super care taker, for sure. Great and timely communications, friendly and very accommodating for a last minute request. Made the whole experience of looking after my Gracie seamless and easy.”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of many breeds and sizes . I am Patient with animals and have a background in social work I’m currently working from home so I’m open to drop off during the day and boarding during the weekends. I’m open to pick ups during the weekends and walks. I have a small fence backyard and a four year-old Jack Russell who is very friendly and playful. Your pup will never be bored that’s for sure
“Ryan EXCEEDED my expectations! He has an intuitive way with dogs. He is very knowledgable about dogs & dog behavior. Ryan is the real deal-- a true animal lover & kind, decent human being. He communicated well with pics and updates during my dog's visit. During our initial meeting I felt an instant rapport he had with my dog that put me at ease. His home is VERY dog-centric! The visiting dogs are not confined and are free to mingle and find their own place to relax. There are ample dog beds, couches, human beds and floor space for lounging and sleeping. I especially appreciate that Ryan limits the number of dogs he boards at one time to a very small group, & makes sure they vibe well together beforehand. The living space Ryan and his boarders occupy is all on one level, which is great for my dog with arthritis. There is a wooded trail for walks adjoining the yard, and a guest bedroom if a dog needs some quiet alone time. I would HIGHLY recommend Ryan and I plan to use him again!”
“I left my mini Australian shepherd for a long weekend with Lucienne. She was incredibly flexible with pickup and drop off times. We did a meet and greet before hand where it was clear she was going to give my dog a great weekend. She sent photo updates during the weekend”
“Donna and her husband were both great. Very thoughtful and generous with Dakota. She has three dogs of her own and they were very well behaved and welcomed Dakota in. Thank you so much!”

“Jessie was great! She came ahead of time to meet our cat and took great care of him. She even brought in some packages we’d received while we were gone. I would definitely recommend her.”
About: I’m a dependable, caring pet lover who understands that pets are part of the family. I’ll treat your pets like my own, giving them plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and playtime while keeping their normal routines in mind. I’m responsible, communicative, and happy to send updates and photos so you can feel confident your pets are happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“Madeline was a great choice for watching our 2 cats! She was very responsive as soon as we reached out to her. She took the time to meet our fur babies and learned about all their needs. Our eldest cat needs to take a pill and she was able to give it to him every day. She followed all our instructions and sent us daily pictures and updates. When we returned home the house was clean, but most importantly, the cats seemed happy and content. Would hire again!”
“Briana took excepcional care of my kitties while I was away. I’m so happy I found her! She provided pictures and updates after every visit and her communication skills were excellent. I highly recommend her care.”
“Giovanna took fantastic care of our incredibly needy, occasionally evil little boy! Great updates, excellent attention to detail and even took in packages for us that I forgot were being delivered while we were away 🫣😆 Thank you for your dedication to our Zephyr!!!”
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.
About: I’ve always loved spending time with cats and understand that each one has their own unique personality. I’ve had two cats of my own, so I’m experienced with daily care, including feeding, cleaning litter boxes, grooming, and cleaning up the occasional hairball. I enjoy playing with cats, giving them attention at their own pace, and making sure they feel comfortable and safe. Whether your cat is outgoing and playful or shy and independent, I’m happy to adapt to their temperament and provide patient, loving care.
About: I've cared for cats for friends, family, and my own pets over the years, and I understand that every cat has a unique personality and routine. I also gained hands-on experience in an animal hospital setting, where I learned how to safely handle animals and pay close attention to their comfort and well-being. Whether your cat needs fresh food and water, a clean litter box, playtime, medication (if needed), or simply someone to keep them company while you're away, I'll make sure they receive the same love and care I give my own cats. I'll also send photo and text updates after every visit so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
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!
“Stephen is amazing! He’s well-versed with large breeds, and we were so happy to find someone experienced who Bowser absolutely loves walking with. He’s always punctual, and after just two walks, Bowser is already so excited to see him! It’s hard to find someone you can truly trust with your dog, and Stephen is definitely that person. Highly recommend!”

It was my first time using Rover, but thanks to this experience I’m looking forward to booking again! Thanks Briana!! <3”
About: Hello! My name is Daphne. Since I was a little girl, I have had a huge passion and love for dogs. I have grown up with bully breeds for my entire life. From Rottweilers to Pit bulls, to American Bulldogs. I currently have an Olde English Bulldog who is the princess of our family. I have a huge love for dogs but specifically bully breeds. I understand how strong they are when going for walks and how much love they have to give.

I will also ensure dogs get regular walks and exercise as per their usual routine.
“Dew goes above and beyond for my puppy. Checks in regularly when he is in her care and even checks in when he is at home. As a first time user of a dog-sitter, I was anxious about leaving my puppy in someone else’s care. Dew almost immediately alleviated my concerns. I feel like her care has been a major benefit for me and for my puppy’s social development. Will continue to take advantage of Dew’s services for the foreseeable future. Highly recommended!”

“Nicole was great with my dog Annie for our doggy day care trial run for a future Annie boarding. This is the first time that I've been away from my dog in quite some time and Nicole was equally great at easing my anxiety. Nicole has a natural presence around Annie and is solid in picking up her behavior and it was an overall nice and comfortable experience. Thank you!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals throughout my life and have cared for pets of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities, from small and shy to big, energetic, and outgoing. Because of that experience, I’m comfortable adapting my approach to each pet rather than expecting every animal to respond the same way. I’m confident caring for both small and large breeds, energetic puppies, adult pets, and seniors who may need a little extra patience and attention. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following specific feeding, exercise, or care instructions. I understand that shy or anxious pets may need time and space to build trust, while more outgoing pets might be ready for playtime the second I walk through the door! Most importantly, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ll pay attention to the little things, keep their routine as familiar as possible, and provide plenty of love, patience, and reassurance. I also know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so you can expect reliable communication and updates while your furry family member is in my care. 🐾❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I have the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m happy to work around each pet’s established schedule, whether that means morning or evening walks, regular potty breaks, feeding times, medication, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their favorite humans are away, so I make maintaining their normal routine a priority. Whether your pet needs lots of activity and attention or prefers a quieter day filled with naps and cuddles, I’m happy to adjust my schedule to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. 🐾❤️ When I’m caring for your pet in your home, I want them to feel like their routine hasn’t skipped a beat. I’ll follow your instructions closely, from meals, walks, potty breaks, and medications to favorite toys, sleeping spots, and all those little quirks that make your pet uniquely yours. 🐾 Having owned and cared for animals of all sizes, ages, and personalities throughout my life, I’m comfortable with the shy ones who need time to trust, the big personalities who want to play nonstop, and the seniors who just want some extra patience and love. I also know you’re trusting me with two things that mean a lot to you: your pet and your home. I’ll treat both with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. Expect plenty of love, attention, photos, and updates, because being away from your pet is much easier when you can actually see that happy face! ❤️🐶🐱

About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting all my life. I also fostered a mid-size mixed terrier. I have two cats of my own. I love how all animals have amazing personalities! I can do dog walking, cat check ins with waste clean-up or over nights which ever you may need. I know how to administer meds to both cats and dogs. It is so important to have your furry loved ones pampered while you are away! I am retired so my availability is flexible. I also enjoy sending photos of your four legged loved one while you are away! I have also watched chickens, turtles, guinea pigs, snakes and iguanas. Looking forward to hearing from you! I am retired so I have a flexible schedule! I can go during the day or stay overnight at your home. Whichever you feel most comfortable with would work! When I come to your house, besides walking/feeding, I do waste cleanup as well. Of course, playing is a must! I will definitely send photos and videos so you know how your furry family member is feeling!

“Daisy lived her overnight stay with Saori. She came home happy and super relaxed. I loved getting photo updates throughout her stay. I knew Daisy was in good hands and it helped make my trip so much more enjoyable knowing she was safe and well cared for. I’ll be booking again soon.”
“Highly recommend Erika’s services. From the intro meet-up to the first stay pick-up she was very easy going, super responsive and took great care of our precious babies. 💛✨🐾 ✨💛”
“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 🦋”
“My Bassett loved it at Rich’s! Rich does a great job of making his space dog friendly and making sure everyone is getting along. My dog was definitely not as happy to see me as he normally is after being separated 🤣 That means a lot to us both, thanks Rich!”
About: I have been grooming dogs for over 18 years, and boarding clients' pups in my home for 16 years. My 13 yr old homeschooled son and I adore all dogs. We have 2 wonderful medium sized girls (Myla 8, Josie 1.5) who love all dogs and people! My career in grooming means I truly 'speak dog' and understand their quirks and needs. I have extensive experience with all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I'm comfortable administering oral and injectible medications, as well as supplements. Our dogs eat a raw diet, so food & water bowls get sterilized after each meal. Since we homeschool, we spend a lot of time at home or close by with friends. My son often has friends over who love to play with dogs. This means we have a great balance of calm & quiet time, as well as active & fun time. Our lovely property has Invisible Fence for about a acre, so any dogs trained on it get to enjoy lots of untethered play time. Every dog who stays gets a temporary ID tag with my address and phone number in case of accidental 'escape' We love couch cuddles, and both of our girls sleep in bed with my son. We also have dog beds everywhere, and crates & gates available when needed.

“Stephen is a super care taker, for sure. Great and timely communications, friendly and very accommodating for a last minute request. Made the whole experience of looking after my Gracie seamless and easy.”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of many breeds and sizes . I am Patient with animals and have a background in social work I’m currently working from home so I’m open to drop off during the day and boarding during the weekends. I’m open to pick ups during the weekends and walks. I have a small fence backyard and a four year-old Jack Russell who is very friendly and playful. Your pup will never be bored that’s for sure
“Ryan EXCEEDED my expectations! He has an intuitive way with dogs. He is very knowledgable about dogs & dog behavior. Ryan is the real deal-- a true animal lover & kind, decent human being. He communicated well with pics and updates during my dog's visit. During our initial meeting I felt an instant rapport he had with my dog that put me at ease. His home is VERY dog-centric! The visiting dogs are not confined and are free to mingle and find their own place to relax. There are ample dog beds, couches, human beds and floor space for lounging and sleeping. I especially appreciate that Ryan limits the number of dogs he boards at one time to a very small group, & makes sure they vibe well together beforehand. The living space Ryan and his boarders occupy is all on one level, which is great for my dog with arthritis. There is a wooded trail for walks adjoining the yard, and a guest bedroom if a dog needs some quiet alone time. I would HIGHLY recommend Ryan and I plan to use him again!”
“Cory is a sweet lovely person. My dog immediately fell very comfortable and happy in her home. She send me updates and photos in the daily basis. I recommend her and i will use her service again if i need a sitter.”

“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!”
“Kyle was awesome. My two dogs had a great time with Kyle. One of them is usually nervous, but warmed up to Kyle immediately. Highly recommend and will definitely have them stay again.”
“Volha communicated very well with me during Simbas stay. She sent pictures and updates and let me know immediately that Simba wasn’t eating because he was nervous. She followed my recommendations and went above and beyond to make Simba as comfortable as possible. We will be booking again with Volha! I recommend Volha!”
“Kenniqua (Kiki) took amazing care of our Gypsy during a recent short vacation. One can tell right away how much Kiki loves dogs, having a beautiful and mild-mannered hound herself! We felt perfectly comfortable leaving our girl in Kiki’s care and will seek out her services again in the future.”
“David is great! He sends photos and videos of my dog playing and enjoying her time. When she comes home she’s ready for nap time. I recommend and will use David again!”
