“Alissa and her fiancé are very sweet & kind. Such a welcoming & safe home. They were very attentive to my dog’s needs and even with other pups that were there, they made sure mine were taken care of properly. She has a great set up to separate any feedings, go out at any time if needed. They were happy overall! I will definitely have them watch them again in the future!”
“I have a 13 year old Chihuahua named Oakley, who has never been left with anyone outside of family. We planned a vacation and had no one available to watch Oakley, then someone told me about Rover.com. That’s where I found Denise. After a meet and greet, I can tell Denise had a true love of animals. I was no longer stressed about leaving Oakley with someone else. He was in a caring and safe environment, and was in very good hands. Denise always kept in touch, and sent pictures of Oakley often. I’m very pleased with the care Oakley got and recommend Denise highly.”

“Rachel Rachel was absolutely wonderful with Nilo. This was our first time using her services after our regular sitter had an unexpected emergency, and she was kind enough to meet with us right away. Nilo can be a little challenging at times, so I made sure to explain his personality, behaviors, and needs. Rachel was incredibly patient, understanding, and caring from the very beginning. She took the time to make Nilo feel comfortable, took him on several walks, and it was clear that he felt safe and relaxed in her home. It means so much to find someone who genuinely cares for your pet, and Rachel did exactly that. We felt at ease knowing Nilo was in such good hands. We are so grateful for her help and would not hesitate to book with her again. Thank you, Rachel, for taking such great care of our Nilo! ❤️ We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”

It instantly put us at ease knowing our dog would be in such a warm and welcoming environment. The large backyard was an absolute paradise for our pup, offering plenty of space to run and play. Throughout the stay, Cindy kept us updated with regular pictures and videos, which made us feel connected and reassured that Rex was having a great time. The level of care and attention to detail was truly outstanding. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind and the exceptional care our dog received. Highly recommend!”

“I am a senior living with my 5 senior cats. They are my family and their happiness is my happiness. Although I like to travel, I hesitate to ask my son and daughter-in-law to take care of them over and over again while I am out of town. I was planning to visit my other son and his family to see my grandkids in NC. I decided to give a try to drop-in care. After checking all the options, I decided on SARAH based on her background and reviews. What a choice I made; she was excellent, deserving more than 5 stars. First of all, she is an animal lover. My cats have a strong sense if a person likes them or not. They will either come to great that person or totally disappear. Looking at the pictures Sarah provided, they are all around her. Even on her shoulder, hugging. Yes, she sent me plenty of pictures every day, including before and after pictures of their plates, litter boxes, She let me know every detail about their wellbeing even sent me the pictures of throw ups, if she found one. When I was back, I found the house clean and in order. She even took all the garbage out with her. Well, I couldn’t ask anything more from her. I feel very comfortable leaving my cats with her again.”
“Janhvi was excellent. The experience felt luxurious with the way she operated. Never missed a visit, pics, vids and full report every time. Would definitely use her services again in the future.”

“Cindy is always reliable, and we really appreciate her picture/video updates! She takes great care of our Chester, and he loves going to her house. She makes him feel comfortable, and we appreciate the care she provides to our beloved fur baby.”
“Sarah and her lovely family took care of our little Yorkie for five days while my husband and I were visiting in New York City. We were staying out on Long Island, and had event tickets each day in the city, so we needed flexible doggie day care hours to accommodate our needs. We felt so very blessed to find Sarah! She welcomed Violet into her home and treated her like family. She is very well equipped to care for any pets and has plenty of equipment and facilities thoughtfully laid out in her home and yard. She has thought of everything her guests could possible need! She kept us very well informed throughout the visit so I didn’t have to worry and wonder about our baby one bit. She obviously loves animals and treated our sweet girl like her very own. Violet was so happy to get there each day and loved playing with all the people and pets in Sarah’s household. I have only ever used day care services on Rover and really couldn’t imagine boarding our fur baby with someone other than a family member, but I wouldn’t hesitate to leave her at Sarah’s! I know I would get professional care, steady communication, and the most loving environment! I cannot recommend her more highly!”

About: I have cared for animals ever since I was a little girl, have always had a dog in the house and would walk our neighbors dogs for fun every day. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, lizards etc. I am currently at stay at home mom for my 2 young daughters. I’m looking to make some extra money and play with as many dogs as possible with a my free time. We have a fenced in yard large enough for all types of dogs to run and play in. We also have double gates for extra safety in the yard. Inside the house we have gates set up to block off the livingroom where we can limit your dog from having access to the front door when people are entering and exiting the home. We also have a guest room that can be used if your pet gets overwhelmed or nervous and needs some alone or quiet time
“Ella is very knowledgeable and professional. She pays attention to detail, makes sure to get to know your pet and asks all the right questions to make you feel as if you’ve known her forever and fully trust her with your pet. Lukas very much enjoyed his walk and came back very happy! Thank you Ella!”
About: Hi! My name is Rachel. I’m a passionate and reliable dog lover with a genuine love for all breeds, big and small. I have been taking care of my family dog for the past 15 years, along with friends and families dogs when they aren’t around. My goal is for you and your fur baby to feel at ease and comfortable while being apart. You will be receiving picture updates from me each day! I look forward to meeting you and your furry baby!! If I am watching your dog, it is because I am home and available to spend time with them. I can adjust to whatever their routine is. If I am watching your dog, it will be your dog only! I will not be having other dogs in my home or walking other dogs at the same time as yours. I can walk your dog as long as you want me too. If your dog is staying with me, they can happily snuggle and sleep with me!
About: Hello! My name is Gianna, as a pet owner myself of a reptile, and dog, I am eager to provide the best care possible. In the past, I have volunteered for North Shore Animal League America where I worked with animals from all walks of life. In my time there I had to get down and dirty between cleaning cages, and caring for sick animals. I have experience with all types of smalls animals (reptiles, hamsters, guinea pigs, etc), along with large and small dogs alike. In the past I have provided care for senior animals who require consistent medication, along with lively young dogs who enjoy exercising and lots of play time. While I do work full-time outside of pet-sitting, my job offers extreme flexibility, and I am happy to accommodate your pets needs whether that just be someone to snuggle with for the evening, or an all day companion. I am happy to provide any references upon request My current job is pretty flexible so whether your animal prefers someone home all the time, or is used to being alone for a typical work day, I am happy to accommodate (rates may vary). I like to remain pretty strict to whatever routine the animal may already have set to avoid disrupting their flow. While I do offer in-home boarding, I ask for an in person meet with my dog and cat prior to boarding just to ensure compatibility. I have a dog named Cheese and a cat named LeeLee who are both rather to themselves and pay one another no mind. If providing boarding your animals will be treated like one of my own.

I can come and visit your furry friend almost any time of the day. My own dogs are crated trained as well as i have a fenced backyard. So i feel comfortable putting ur dog in a crate if needed. Im all about the dogs comfort

“If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. Leaving your dog in someone else's care can be stressful, but from the moment I met Krissy, I knew my dog was in wonderful hands. Krissy went above and beyond in every way, treating my dog like a member of her own family. I received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that my dog's happiness, comfort, and safety were her top priorities. When I returned, my dog was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for—a true reflection of the love, patience, and attention my dog Sophie received. It's rare to find someone so dependable, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about animals. I wholeheartedly recommend Krissy to anyone looking for exceptional pet care. Krissy exceeded every expectation, and I wouldn't hesitate to entrust her with my dog again.”
