I felt so much peace of mind knowing lady was in his care while i was away.”

My senior dog recently passed away but she left soft beds in every room, jars of treats, and a big basket of toys I know she’d love to share.
“Booked last minute and was very accommodating. I needed a day sitter for my 2 labs and received pictures/ updates thought the day. My dogs had a great day and were well cared for. Would definitely recommend and book again in the future.”
“Jenny is super easy to communicate with and flexible! She’s very friendly and I felt my dog was very safe with her. We actually needed to cancel our booking so Daisy only spent a few hours with her but she had already sent us a photo! I will definitely be booking with Jenny in the future.”

We were kept in the loop every day on how she was adjusting to her new sitter ( including pictures) and that made me feel confident we made a great choice. I would hope Cassandra will agree to watch Sophia again when she needs boarding. Anne”

We look forward to using Briana again and again for our willow.”
“Having a Cattle Dog makes it tricky to find just the right person to handle the big energy these dogs possess so I was glad to find Kevin when I needed to board my dog overnight this past weekend.

I love to see animals happy, healthy and well cared for and am excited to be a contributing factor in doing that for your pet.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Springvale
“I can’t thank Gil enough for the attentiveness, caring, and love he showed to my 15 yr old dachshund! Gil took the time to listen to my wife and me when we described to him our pup’s tendencies and hinderances. We felt confident as we pulled out of the driveway that our old guy was in great hands! Gil made sure to send us photos of our pup throughout the day, as well as updates on its evacuations (very important for an older dog). Overall, I can say unequivocally that Gil was a perfect sitter for our elderly pup, and I would 100% recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter in that area! Kudos, Gil!”
“This was my dog's first time with a Rover sitter. Lorinda did her best to get him settled. She understood he was not wanting to be social. She got her chair and stayed by him while he was in her fenced area. Couldn't ask for more.”
About: I have over 7 years of hands-on animal care experience, including running my own dog walking business for 2 years and ongoing work in farm animal rescue. I had two dogs of my own for over 15 years and have cared for many rescue dogs with a wide range of personalities and needs. I’m patient, reliable, and especially comfortable with shy, nervous, or high-energy dogs. I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine while they’re in my care. I do have cats in my home, so dogs staying with me should be cat-friendly. References are available upon request. “Pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I work part-time overnight, which means I’m home and available throughout the day for walks, supervision, and consistent care. I also run a nonprofit animal rescue from my home, so caring for animals is something I’m actively doing every day. My routine is built around feeding schedules, exercise, cleaning, and making sure each animal gets individual attention. Because of this, I’m very used to managing different needs while keeping a calm, structured environment.” depends on each pet’s routine and comfort level, but I always aim to keep things as consistent and low-stress as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, structured environment with regular feeding schedules, exercise, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. Dogs get daily walks, enrichment, and individual attention. I take introductions slowly and make sure everyone is safe and comfortable. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed—while also keeping your home clean and respected. I pay attention to behavior and body language and adjust care based on what each pet needs. My goal is always to make pets feel secure and well cared for, whether they’re in my home or staying in theirs

“Jenny was great and took my two pups for the day! They came back tried and happy. Her resident dogs were great hosts to my nervous pup, and he came home with new friends, a big victory for him. Good communication from Jenny from start to finish.”

“This was a great first experience! Briana made an appointment to meet my dogs (and me, but we KNOW it’s about the dogs!). She was intuitive even with this “difficult” breed (Akita). I got pictures from their walks. I’ll absolutely use Rover and hire Briana again!!”
