She is kind, attentive, and genuinely loves dogs. Knowing Lola was in such caring hands gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”

About: I’ve always enjoyed taking care of dogs since I was a child. I had a childhood dog, Rags who I doted on. In 2004, my dreams came true with having a dog of my own, Missy. Missy was a wonderful addition to my family for her lifetime of 17 years. I have a lot of love to give to your dog. I”m a teacher who’s off for the summer and when school resumes in the fall, I’m home by 2:45 pm. This schedule will allow me to go above and beyond when taking care of your dog. Your dog will be able to run freely in our home. I work close by so I will come home to walk your dog during the work day and then I’m home from work by 2:45. Once I’m home, I will play and pet your dog continuously as I did for 17 years with my beloved Missy.

“Rafaelina was amazing as always. I trust how great she takes care of my two doggies. They have stayed with her multiple times. I have ease of mind when my dogs stay with Rafaelina. She always updates me daily on how they are doing and check-in. My dogs love staying with her and have a blast. I highly recommend her and her services. Amazing! 🤩”

“Tara did a wonderful job with our two kitties!! She learned how to give medicine to one who is sick through the feeding tube and navigate her picky eating habits.

We trust her completely and would not hesitate to use her services again and would highly recommend her.”

“Alyssa found out about our cat’s unexpected medical issue while we were traveling and in sleep in a different time zone. Alyssa and Michael used their best judgement to take our cat to the ER, made sure his situation was stable, documented everything, and helped cleaning the mess our cat made in the apartment due to his sickness. They truly treat your pets like their own fur babies and will go above and beyond when it is needed. I recommend them and will book with them again for our cat.”

It was the best sitter I had so far. Definitely booking again! Thanks Elena, it is so great to have peace of mind even leaving the little one.”
“Angeli was extremely friendly and professional throughout her stay at our apartment while watching our cat. She came by earlier in the week to meet the cat and ask all the important questions, and followed through on all our instructions. She provided many pictures and reassurances during our time away, and even tidied up before leaving our place. I would highly recommend her services, and we will be hiring her again.”
“Andrew took great care of my 2 cats while I was away for a week ...very responsible ...reliable and gave my cats the attention and care that I give...will definitely use him again!...thanks Andrew!!”
“Catie was amazing with my 2 kitties while I was away on vacation. I have a cat that is shy and is diabetic. Catie was able to get my cat his insulin injections and broke through his shyness. I would highly recommend Catie to sit for any furbaby!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Danae was exceptional! She kept us updated with our cats, and she was flexible when we had to make adjustments to our care plan. Highly recommend!!”
“Kalliope was quick with responding to my request. Showed up on time for the visit and took care of my dogs very well on a hot summer day. My dogs looked happy and tired at the end of the visit”
“Becky is amazing! You can tell immediately she is an “animal person” by her energy, and I knew our girls would be in fantastic hands. I was extra nervous since one of our kitties has anxiety and is on medication - it’s a lot to ask of someone else to care for her - but Becky was completely unfazed and didn’t hesitate for a minute. I was totally reassured every minute we were gone and was actually able to enjoy my vacation knowing Becky had everything handled. Thank you, Becky!”
“Euree is an awesome sitter! Quick communication and everything went smoothly including the initial greet and meet. Even though my cat is super shy and immediately goes into hiding upon seeing strangers, Euree always made an effort to find him and include a photo to let me know Mocha is doing well. Will book again in the future :)”
“What a wonderful cat sitter! She took great care of my three cats, and was very gracious about a misunderstanding on my end. Great to work with. She house sat for me and also left the place in a wonderful condition. I would be happy to leave my babies with her again, fully recommended.”
“Jacqueline is a great pet sitter! Very reliable, kind and sends the funniest check-in pics of my cat (lol). Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”

About: I’m a mom of two, and I have two Maltese of my own, so I know how much our pets mean to us. I genuinely love dogs and enjoy spending time with them, whether that’s going for walks, playing, or just giving them lots of attention and cuddles. I’ll care for your dog like they’re part of my own family, and I’ll make sure you get plenty of updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away. I work from home full-time and have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy the outdoors. I love spending time outside with them, whether we’re playing in the yard or taking a relaxing stroll around the neighborhood. Because I work from home, I also offer flexible drop-in visits and dog walks before work, during my lunch break, or after my workday. Whether your pup needs a potty break, some exercise, playtime, or a little extra love while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, and I can crate your dog if needed. Since I work from home full-time, your dog will never be left alone for long and will receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. I also offer drop-in visits and dog walks before work, during my lunch break, and after work to fit your schedule.
“Rowan had an amazing time at Ari & Karen’s! He was neutered just a week ago so he needed some extra care - they did a great job helping him with the recovery and making the day enriching for him at the same time! Rowan also loved short walks in their big yard - can’t wait to bring him back after he recovers so he can run around in it next time! :)”
“Wendy and her husband took great care of my dog and sent me updates during the day. Zoe can be shy and sensitive at first with new people, but she warmed up to them so quickly! Their dog Hero is so cute and playful as well. I would recommend her, and Zoe looks forward to her next daycare there!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. Our dogs are like children to us. Now, as we work from home and have a big yard, we have the ideal setup for happy, safe dogs—and want to share it with your fur baby! Stay at Penny’s House - We’ve raised our 3-year-old mini poodle to be a happy, gentle and well-rounded pup. She loves to play and cuddle, and gets along very well with other dogs and cats! She’s a great hostess. - Our home is very loving and safe. Someone is always around to give cuddles and love, plenty of cozy places to hang out, and hazards are always out of reach. - We have a fully fenced, big backyard where your beloved fur baby can play fetch and get out all their zoomies frequently and safely. It's also covered in grass and shaded by large trees, so don't worry about hot summer days! - We don't anticipate anything happening, but just in case, rest assured because our home is only *one block* away from an excellent animal hospital! - We’ll do our best to make sure that your little buddy will feel loved and at home here, getting the same level of care you like to provide to them. - We’ve had senior dogs and a dog with diabetes, so we are very careful and will always give attention to detail to adapt to their needs, whether it be diet, exercise, attention, or anything else. We read ingredients and will follow your instructions carefully. - We will keep you updated with photos and videos so you know they’re safe and having a good time. - ¡Se habla español! Si tu perrito se siente más cómodo que le hable en español, solo díganos cuáles comandos utilizan. It’s hard to find someone to trust with your pet; we found this out the hard way. So we hope our home can be the place you rely on to feel safe leaving your little bundle. REQUIREMENTS: We’re flexible and easygoing. But because we want everyone to have a good, safe time, we do have a couple of requirements: 1) We require a meet-and-greet for all new clients before a stay to make sure our dog and yours get along well. 2) Your dog must be up-to-date on all vaccines: rabies, bordatella, lepto, etc. Because we work from home, we are available at home to take care of your little buddy full time for boarding and daycare at our home. A fully-enclosed, shaded backyard for zoomies and lots of walks around our safe, dog-friendly, and tree-lined neighborhood. Your fur baby will be under our supervision throughout the day and will get frequent trips to the yard and lots of time to play. We're also happy to walk your dog as often as you need. We’re always happy to be flexible with your schedule to accommodate both your and your dog’s needs.

“Kerry is a gem!! My senior dog needs lots of TLC and patience (he's lost most of his vision and hearing, has trouble with stairs and occasionally gets confused), so I was nervous about bringing in someone to walk him. Kerry immediately put my fears to rest -- asked all the right questions, was wonderful with my dog, and communicated well and often during the visit. I won't hesitate to have him visit again and am relieved I found him.”
About: I’m an animal-lover and proud pawrent of 13 years with experience caring for all kinds of dogs with all kinds of personalities (even the occasional cat). Whether you need frequent walkings, short to long-term sittings, or the occasional drop-in, I’ll make sure that your doggo feels loved, cared for, and most importantly, knows they’re a good girl or boy ❤️. I am currently a student and work part-time at my school during the academic year. In the summertime, I have open availability. During the academic year, I create a flexible schedule allowing for adequate time to focus on pet care. I like to meet dogs where they are at while applying safety awareness. I focus on identifying triggers for reactive furry friends. I also implement safeguards to ensure the security and safety of our furry friends.
“Shawn is easily the best walker I’ve gotten through Rover or the other dog walking apps. He arrives on time, responsive to messages, and leaves thorough reports after each walk. He even spends time working on training goals during the walks!”
“Lina was absolutely incredible!! We have a pup who is nervous around new people (barking, growling, etc.) and we were so stressed about finding a walker. After having a bad experience with another walker, we found Lina and couldn’t be happier. She was so kind, knowledgeable, friendly, and took the time to make our dog comfortable. She even continued some of the training we had been working on. She will definitely be our first call if we need a walker again and we cannot recommend her enough!!”
“Victor is always great with our boys. We booked a last minute walk and appreciated that Victor was available. He communicates really well and takes beautiful photos.”
“Leigh was great. I was able to be there at the start of the walk, and Leigh asked great questions about what commands my dog knew and what my walk preferences were. She was patient with my dog (who is a puppy) and since they stayed on my property at my request, I was able to watch Leigh play with my puppy outside. Leigh did a great job, and I have asked her to walk my dog on a more regular basis as a result.”

I am pretty much available for your animal at any moment of the day! I want to make sure your animals feel safe in their space without you for a little while! I want to disrupt their routine as little as I can and my priority is caring for them!
About: I have had experience with dogs of all breeds since I was 16 years old when I worked as a kennel tech!

In addition to years of care sitting for both cats and dogs, I volunteered in South Africa and cared for baby baboons! I know your pet is unique and I will follow all instructions given to ensure your peace of mind, your pet’s safety, and will send pictures daily! I transitioned from the corporate world to and now do this full time, so I am flexible and available at all times to keep your pet’s schedule on track! I care and respect your home just as much as I love animals. If I am in your home, I will follow all instructions as given and am happy to send as many pictures as you request during my stay.

Our dog is a picky eater and is also on some tricky meds…and Randi kept in touch with regular updates.
