“Had to go to a funeral overseas and Grace swooped in to take care of Ranger with short notice. She did an excellent job with him all i had to provide was food. Hes very shy and timid around strangers, but he warmed up the Grace in no time.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and Emily made it such a great experience. She took great care of Lolah from April 1–11 and sent photo updates that made me feel at ease while I was away. Lolah was clearly in good hands. I would definitely book with her again—highly recommend!”
“My pups run to Ilona and her home when they come to stay! This is rare for my dogs as they are anxious and are homebodies. She has a wonderful environment for dogs and and Goes above and beyond for them!”
“Cooper has stayed with Nicole twice so far and the second time I bought him to her house, he ran inside. She seems to be very attentive and is incredibly responsive. We’ll definitely be staying here again! Thank you for the awesome experience for my dogs first boarding.”
“This was Timmy’s second stay with Denis and his wife, and once again, everything was absolutely perfect. Timmy stayed with them for 12 nights, and from the moment we dropped him off, it was clear he remembered them and felt comfortable right away. He was calm, relaxed, and not nervous at all, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Denis and his wife truly treat Timmy like family. They showed him so much love, care, and attention throughout his stay, and it honestly felt like he was at his second home. We knew he was in great hands the entire time. We’re so grateful to have found sitters we completely trust, and we will absolutely continue booking with them in the future. Highly recommend to anyone looking for kind, reliable, and attentive pet sitters.”
“Royce's 2nd time staying with Juliana and her family and we couldn't have been happier. They were able to get through our old man's tough exterior and his level of comfort while staying with them in their home showed in the pictures she sent. Juliana and her family not only has our trust, but most importantly Royce's!”
“Sabrina was so attentive and caring. She took amazing care of my puppy. He just had a surgery and I didn’t have to worry about him at all during my trip. Thanks again”
“My pug Charlie had another wonderful time with Abbie and Peachy. Charlie feels really safe with Abbie even though she is a little anxious and Peachy is a great friend that helps Charlie to stay active and socialized especially in this cold weather. Outstanding hosts!”
“I left my elderly Little Lady with Anny during a family emergency and she was able to help out on such short notice. Anny bought snacks for Reina and kept her fed and very happy :) Anny let me know everyday how happy and secure Reina was. I knew she was with an amazing and loving family for the weekend. They even left me with the most beautiful Valentines day basket afterwards with a custom blanket and printed photos! Literally could not have asked for a better situation ❤️😊”
“Tokyo’s stay was amazing! He was cared for with so much love, and he really enjoyed spending time with Margarita & Cristian. I highly recommend their services. Thank you for everything — we’ll see you again soon!”
“Bridget was great! She is very friendly and took great care of our dog. She shared photos and updates, which made us feel better as first time Rover users. Additionally, our dog came home relaxed and at ease, so we know she was well cared for. We would definitely ask her to watch our pup again.”
“Naomi was amazing with my pup Oreo! She took great care of him and kept me updated with photos and videos. I could tell he was happy, loved, and super comfortable. Communication was great. Highly recommend!”

“Anton was very kind and accommodating of my anxious dog. It was the very first boarding experience for my dog, Reiki, and he was very nervous when we arrived at Anton's place. I was worried that he would stay restless, but I was totally wrong! Anton sent me photos and updates, which made me feel safe asking more of his service again. Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”
“Euitae is very professional and flexible. Vito looked well taken care of and seemed right at home with Euitae and Winston. I’m glad Vito has new friends in the neighborhood!”

“Dan stays in touch with me every day to keep me updated on Flash's daily routine. Flash has a wonderful daily schedule, and they care for him with so much love. I am very grateful for their care and highly recommend them.”

“Shibo was absolutely amazing! I have two male cats, and one of them I had just adopted 10 days before leaving for my trip. He was very skittish when I first got him, but he warmed up to Shibo right away. My other cat took a liking to him immediately as well—who wouldn’t! Shibo was so wonderful, giving my cats the attention they needed while I was away. In the past, I relied on neighbors and people just stopping by to feed and check on them, but my experience with Shibo has completely changed my perspective. It is worth every penny to have someone as great as him looking after your fur babies! When I returned, I could see the difference in my fluffy companions in the best way as this is very early in their introduction phase. I had peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. Shibo provided fantastic updates and beautiful photos, making it clear that my cats had a wonderful time with their new friend. I have full trust in Shibo as I also came home to find everything exactly as I expected. I highly recommend Shibo for anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! Especially cats.”
“Antoinette is fantastic!! Mister Peach (my cat) and I highly recommend her. She is reliable, responsible, trustworthy, and caring... I've hired her several times to take care of Peach while I'm away and will continue to do so. 5 stars!”
About: I’ve spent plenty of time taking care of pets since I was a kid. I’ve had regular clients whom I’ve stayed at their house, and some who would regularly drop their dogs off at my home in Texas. I also owned 3 dogs of my own and have taken care of up to 10 dogs at once! I am currently and actor and student at Long Island University, Brooklyn. I am available to work every day of the week, though Tuesday and Thursday’s I do have a slightly packed schedule. I offer services at my clients home. I am very capable of keeping close eyes on dogs and cats and well capable of caging them if needed.
“Hemei did a great job taking care of our cat. She did everything we asked and was very communicative. We felt very comfortable being away with our cat in her care and would definitely book her again.”
“Garrett took great care of our cats! Both kittens enjoyed snuggling and playing with him. They were very well-cared for during the couple of days when we weren’t around.”
About: At the age of 10, my brother brought home a tiny white and orange cat fluffy cat. He is now 13 years old. Since then i’ve brought home another orange cat at 5 weeks old who is now 5 years old. I’ve also recently adopted a female husky who is a one year old. Two male cats and One female dog that get along great!
About: I’m an experienced pet parent and a proud cat mom of 6 cats. Caring for multiple cats has helped me develop a strong understanding of different personalities, behaviors, and individual needs. Beyond caring for my own cats, I have provided in-home cat care for friends, including caring for two cats while they were away. I have also gained professional pet-sitting experience through another pet care platform, where I regularly care for an 8-year-old cat for a repeat client who has trusted me as her go-to sitter. My experience includes feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, grooming, medication support when needed, and providing companionship for cats with different temperaments. I understand that every cat has their own routine and personality, and I always take the time to make them feel safe and comfortable in their own home. When caring for your pets, I treat them like my own. I will provide thoughtful updates, photos, and attentive care so you can feel confident and relaxed while you’re away.
“Ari was a great first experience using Rover. He took great care of my cats and offered to do a "meet and greet" beforehand where I was able to show him everything and introduce the kitties. I'd recommend him to you if you're looking for drop-in pet care.”
“Grace & Wu G. Are friendly, professional and fun. They kept me updated on the activities of my kitties. They respond immediately. I would definitely recommend.”
“Chok is the most caring and conscientious cat sitter I’ve ever had. Leaving your pets behind is always stressful, but she immediately put my mind at ease. Melody and Houdini instantly connected with her—they usually take time to warm up to new people, but they absolutely adored her! She was incredibly attentive to their routines, extremely thorough with the care instructions, and treated my home with the utmost respect. It is so clear that she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable. I could tell from her detailed updates and photos/videos she sent that my cats were in fantastic hands the entire time. ***Chok also administered asthma medicine to one of my cats (an inhaler using Aerotek chamber and mask). If you are looking for a trustworthy, loving, and reliable sitter who will treat your fur babies like her own, look no further. I am so grateful for her and will definitely be booking her again! Chok is amazing!”
About: I have grown up around dogs as well as owned my own dogs for many years. I am well versed in walking, feeding, bathing, and simple grooming techniques. Currently, I work at a vet clinic where we have patients of all shapes and sizes, and I also spent two years being a puppy sitter for Seeing Eye puppies in training. Due to those two years, I have experience with puppies as young as 7 weeks old, and can confidently assist with basic obedience training where needed. I also have experience with larger breeds like Golden Retrievers, Labradors, and German Shepherds. My schedule changes weekly, however, I am almost always available for at least 4 days of the week! I also have extracurriculars but those are flexible and can be worked around. I always make sure to double check the fit of harnesses/collars to ensure the safety of pets on a walk. I am capable of putting an animal back in a crate if necessary as well.
“Kloe was extremely caring for our three cats. They trusted her right away. She fed, cleaned and played with them while we were away. Sent so many cute pictures and videos. Definitely recommend!”
About: As a cat owner, I understand how sensitive cats can be to changes in routine and environment. I focus on creating a calm, low-stress experience and take time to earn each cat’s trust. I am attentive to feeding routines, litter box cleanliness, playtime preferences, and subtle behavior changes. My goal is to make cats feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and can plan drop-in visits in advance to ensure consistency and reliability. I prefer scheduled visits with reasonable notice so I can provide attentive and unhurried care for each cat. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and respect when caring for cats in a client’s home. I carefully follow instructions regarding feeding, routines, and home access. I move calmly and quietly in the home, ensure doors and windows are secure, and keep the environment clean and low-stress. I treat each home and pet with care and responsibility.
“Angelica was so friendly and caring and we felt our Cat was in good hands while we were out of town for a week. She sent us lots of pictures and kept us updated on her daily visits. It made our trip so much more enjoyable knowing he was being well taken care of. We look forward to having Angelica cat sit for us in the future!”
“Melanie was the absolute best! She took amazing care of Penelope while I was away and sent me pics and updates. It made me so comfortable to know she was in such good hands. Melanie is sweet, friendly and loves animals and it shows. She is extremely loving and caring and I would recommend her 1000 % and give her 1000 stars!!!!”

“We needed a super last minute dog watcher and found Emily. She was accommodating and flexible as we were driving in from out of state, when we arrived she showed us her space and it was really clean with a nice enclosed backyard. She sent photos throughout the day and notes about our dog. Emily was great and we highly recommend her!!”
“I truly recommend Dan. This is my first time using Rover and naturally wanting the best for my dog, I wanted to make sure she’d be good, and Dan made sure of that. She always checked in with me, provided me updates of Daisy through pictures and videos, and always responds when she can.”
“Ever since Ace’s first stay, I haven’t trusted anyone else to watch him. He’s always so excited to see Athena, which gives me complete peace of mind knowing he’s happy and well cared for. Athena is truly amazing, she’s reliable, caring, and treats Ace like he’s one of her own. I couldn’t recommend her more highly to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”
“Melanie is fabulous! She is so loving and attentive. Lemmy had the best day with her. She sent pictures and videos which I greatly appreciated as I am a nervous doggie momma. I can’t recommend Melanie highly enough! We already have a number of dates set on the calendar for my sweet Lemmy to spend with his favorite sitter🐾☺️”
“Hands down the best dog sitter/boarder. She is so gentle and kind with our precious 7 year old yorkie. Bonus is the gated back yard and my pup loves it. She is the best and chewy will be back soon. Thank you”
“Denys was absolutely exceptional. She took Luna in on a last minute request and was amazing. Luna came home happy and ready for bed each day. Denys did an amazing job, and I will be using her again for sure!”
“Yakie was really great with communicating and giving us updates throughout the day. We really appreciated all of the photos and it put us at ease knowing that Rocky was having a great time. Will definitely book Yakie again for future stays!”
“Ana was so sweet and kind to my puppy. She sent me multiple updates and pictures throughout the day and treated him with so much love. She followed my schedule with him to the T and I could tell he enjoyed being with her and her with him. My puppy came home tired and happy and we will be repeat customers!”
“I am so glad I find sue on Rover. She is great with my dog. She will keep update on the condition of my dog and send me pictures. On top of that, she is very flexible with scheduling. I had issue of not able to pick up my dog on time and she is very accommodating. Will book her again. Thanks sue!”
About: I have over a decade of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. As a current multi-pet owner with a mini poodle and a rescue cat, I am an expert at managing a happy, harmonious home and catering to different personality types. What sets my care apart is the activity level and location. I live just 20 feet from one park and a 5-minute walk from another, making outdoor time effortless. My schedule is built around your pet's needs: when I'm home, they get 3-4 walks a day, they are guaranteed three solid walks with plenty of park time. My home is a true 'pet paradise'—fully stocked with a massive variety of dog and cat toys to suit any play style, from high-energy fetch to interactive puzzle games. I also treat your pets like my own by exclusively serving ZeroWater filtered water for premium hydration. I am highly observant, deeply responsible, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, active, and loved. My weekly routine is highly structured to guarantee your pet gets plenty of regular exercise and potty breaks. Since I work from home every day, I am able to take dogs out for four walks a day (morning, lunch break, evening, and right before bed). I am always home for overnight boarding, and my weekends are fully open for even more playtime and park visits! Because I am a pet owner myself with a dog and a cat, my home is fully set up for animal safety. My environment is supervised, and I am particularly careful about keeping curious pets away from indoor plants or other hazards. I provide a calm, structured space where your pet can relax while I work from my home office. I also believe in total transparency and will send you frequent photo and video updates so you can see your pet enjoying their time, whether we're playing fetch at the park or lounging at home. To ensure every guest feels at home, I provide multiple dog beds in various sizes throughout the apartment. This allows each dog to have their own dedicated space to retreat to and relax, which is especially helpful for pups who might be a little timid at first!
“This was a perfect match. Lily connected with Veronica and her husband right away. Veronica has a calm , warm and pleasant personality. I immediately felt comfortable leaving Lily at her home and in her care. I met her two fur babies and saw how sweet and loving they are. This was an excellent day for Lily because she was able to enjoy Veronica’s backyard and front porch while being off her leash. Thank you”
“Juliana was able to accommodate a last minute sitting request for my two senior dogs. She was extremely responsive, caring and provided updates throughout the day. Our dogs are elderly, shy and need frequent walks and she took care of them as if they were her own. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for pets since childhood and currently work in a veterinary office with 3 years of hands-on experience. I provide reliable care for cats, dogs, and birds. Feel free to inquire! Pet care is a consistent part of my daily and weekly routine. I work at a veterinary office Monday through Saturday, which allows me to bring professional experience and a strong understanding of animal health into my care routine. I manage boarding, visits, and pet care around my work schedule to ensure each pet receives proper attention. Dog walking and drop-in visits are typically scheduled before and after office hours. Boarding pick-ups and drop-offs are flexible within reason on those days, and Sunday pick-up or drop-off is available upon inquiry. I plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets in my care receive reliable, attentive, and consistent care every day. I can also set up Vet visits within my office upon inquiry! In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and structured boarding environment tailored to each pet’s needs. For dogs, I have 3–4 spacious enclosures measuring approximately 5ft x 5ft with tall height, allowing plenty of room to move comfortably, rest, and feel secure. Dogs are let out regularly for exercise, potty breaks, and supervised interaction, depending on their temperament and owner preferences. For cats, I have separate, smaller enclosures in a variety of sizes to ensure they feel calm and stress-free. Cats are kept in a quiet area away from dogs, with clean litter boxes, fresh water, and enrichment as needed. I follow each pet owner’s care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and any special needs. Cleanliness, safety, and comfort are always a priority, and I monitor pets throughout the day to ensure they are happy and healthy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine and environment. I follow all provided care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box maintenance, medications, and any special needs. I ensure the home is kept tidy, pets are safe and comfortable, and I provide regular updates and photos so owners have peace of mind. Whether in my home or yours, cleanliness, safety, and attentive care are always my top priorities, and I monitor pets closely to ensure they are happy and healthy.
About: What sets me apart is the combination of hands-on experience, professional pet care skills, and a home environment designed around each dog’s individual needs. I have about 5 years of experience caring for dogs, including dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I pay close attention to body language, comfort level, and interactions so I can recognize when a dog is relaxed, overwhelmed, or needs more personal space. Pet care is my full-time focus, and I’m both pet CPR certified and a certified groomer. This allows me to provide attentive daily care while also helping with brushing, bathing, coat care, and general cleanliness when requested. My home has a private backyard of approximately 900 square feet for supervised outdoor play and potty breaks, along with additional rooms that allow me to separate dogs based on size, temperament, energy level, or individual comfort needs. I understand that every dog has a different routine, so I do my best to accommodate feeding schedules, sleeping preferences, sensitivities, and other special instructions from parents. I also send frequent photo and video updates throughout each stay. My goal is not only to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, but also to give parents real peace of mind while they are away. Caring for dogs is a major part of my daily life and my full-time focus. Because I have a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, outdoor play, feeding, rest time, and plenty of individual attention throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and adjusting their routine so they can feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay. I’m pet CPR certified and also a certified groomer, so I’m comfortable providing basic coat care, brushing, bathing, and grooming services when requested. For longer boarding stays, I’m happy to include a complimentary basic bath when appropriate. For shorter stays, bathing or grooming services can be added for an additional fee. My priority is always to provide attentive, reliable, and personalized care for every dog staying with me. I live in a clean and well-kept home with a private backyard of approximately 900 square feet, giving dogs plenty of space for supervised outdoor play, potty breaks, and fresh air throughout the day. I also have additional rooms available, which allows me to separate dogs by size, energy level, or comfort needs when necessary. This helps each dog have a safe and quiet place to rest, settle in, and decompress without feeling overwhelmed. I have a 3-year-old Border Collie who is very sweet, gentle, and full of positive energy. He has done very well with other dogs and enjoys spending time and playing with them. I carefully supervise all interactions and introduce dogs gradually, while paying close attention to their body language, personality, and comfort level. I never force dogs to interact if they need more time or personal space. Throughout the day, I provide regular potty breaks, supervised backyard time, playtime, and plenty of opportunities to relax comfortably indoors. I also try to follow each dog’s normal feeding, sleeping, and daily routine as closely as possible. Sleeping arrangements can be flexible based on the owner’s preference and the dog’s needs. For dogs who are more sensitive or feel more secure near people, I can arrange for them to sleep in the same room with me. After outdoor time, I clean the dogs’ paws to help keep them comfortable and maintain a clean living environment. I also pay attention to brushing and overall cleanliness throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a safe, structured, and welcoming home where every dog receives individualized care and owners can feel confident while they are away.

“Janet is an outstanding dog walker! She bonded immediately with our two English Setters, and they happily anticipate her arrival when it is time for a walk to our nearby park. Janet sends us photos, videos, and updates throughout the walk. She keeps up a brisk pace but is sensitive enough to allow the girls to sniff when they wish, without them sneaking any inappropriate "snacks" that might be lingering on the path. Janet has an upbeat personality, and is always on time yet very flexible. We can’t recommend her highly enough!”
“Hemei has been great with my dog Kiara! She walks her a 3-4 times a week and is very responsive, professional, and communicative. She is very flexible with her schedule which is amazing since my week to week work schedule sometime varies. Hemei made the extra trek for a meet and greet before starting so that I could rest assured that my dog would be comfortable with her. She is reliable and a true dog lover and you know she will look after your fur baby as her own. Highly recommend her!”

“It’s was such a blessing to have Cynthia walk our furry baby Aria during our 17 day trip overseas. She showed to be responsible, reliable and very loving with Aria. She sent me daily pics and documented every walk. It was such a joy to hear daily from their walks. Aria adores her and will keep coming back for more and more walks in the near future. Thank you so much Cynthia! Aria adores and misses you!”
About: I was previously in a internship program about animals specifically dogs for a whole summer. Picking up after them and feeding them. It was about 28 dogs on the busiest days and the minimum was about 10 so I got to know very different and unique dogs. As of now I am open and available to watch any furry animals like cats or dogs for as long as I am required too. I have a very nice and playful dog myself that loves the company of other animals. She loves making friends and is gentle with smaller animals.
“Ari was great! It was my first time using Rover and he made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire process. He is very reliable and will respond to your messages right away. Tigger had great walks and I will definitely schedule more with Ari. Loved the Rover cards and the pictures!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets my whole life but really started about 5 years ago. When I was young I would help neighbors, friends, and family with their pets and loved it. From daily walks and feeding to baths and playtime, I treat every pet like my own. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I am understanding that some pets may need extra patience or a lot of activity for a high-energy and playful pup. My goal is to make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved. I’m a graduate student with evening classes only, so I am free throughout the day to give your pets plenty of attention, care, and love! I am able to take pets on long walks in various different areas depending on breed and energy levels for the pet to ensure they have a positive experience!
“Ivy has just started walking my dog Gabby.. she’s been outstanding so far… she’s been punctual, followed all my directions and most importantly has been amazing with Gabby. As I see how happy Gabby is when Ivy arrives for her walks. Wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to recommend Ivy to any neighbor or friend with a pup needing walking.”
“Deshauna walked and gave meds for our Yorkie, Champy. Deshauna accommodated our request for a meet-and-greet prior to walking him for the first time, which was important to explain the medication. During the walk, she arrived on time and was attentive to Champy's needs, and gave medication. Sent pictures and updates. I highly recommend!”
About: Hi! My name is Neil D. Wallace and I love dogs. Dogs make me happy. My favorite dogs are Blue Staffies and Pugs. I have most experience walking Doodles, Pitbulls, Huskies and Chihuahas. I also communicate everything, and promise an open book attitude with owners. All hours until i book my next show. This is just a side hustle when demand is low in the acting world, which will change, with my contribution. No matter what dog I take care of, there is always one thing in common. The owner is always right. Even if I think something might work better for the pups, the owner knows best; open communication is key.
“Very gentle and it’s obvious she cares for animals just how slow she walk with him, knowing he’s an older dog have a 14-year-old Shih Tzu. Don’t walk very fast and she just took her time that means a lot to me not to rush him around just to get the work over with. Thank you again Rachel. See you shortly.”
About: I’ve spent plenty of time taking care of pets since I was a kid. I’ve had regular clients whom I’ve stayed at their house, and some who would regularly drop their dogs off at my home in Texas. I also owned 3 dogs of my own and have taken care of up to 10 dogs at once! I am currently and actor and student at Long Island University, Brooklyn. I am available to work every day of the week, though Tuesday and Thursday’s I do have a slightly packed schedule. I offer services at my clients home. I am very capable of keeping close eyes on dogs and cats and well capable of caging them if needed.
About: My husband and I are animal lovers, but I would be the main watch keeper since I am home full time :) We have been around puppies our whole life. I call all doggies, puppies (regardless if they're young and old) I grew up with Cocker Spaniels and my husband with a Mini Pinscher. We currently do not have any dogs at home Potty time for your pup is whenever the pup needs, we have a fenced backyard where they can go at any minute of the day, in addition to the daily walks around the neighborhood. I would love to have the opportunity to watch these little ones. I have used Rover.com in the past ,and had a great experience. Looking to give the same love that she received from her sitter to another puppy. I will keep you posted throughout the day with pictures and videos so you have a peace of mind that your pup is in good care and happy. I am more than happy to meet with you and your pooch before you confirm my sitter services to make sure your pup feels comfortable and vice versa.

“My pups run to Ilona and her home when they come to stay! This is rare for my dogs as they are anxious and are homebodies. She has a wonderful environment for dogs and and Goes above and beyond for them!”
“Cooper has stayed with Nicole twice so far and the second time I bought him to her house, he ran inside. She seems to be very attentive and is incredibly responsive. We’ll definitely be staying here again! Thank you for the awesome experience for my dogs first boarding.”
“Naomi was amazing with my pup Oreo! She took great care of him and kept me updated with photos and videos. I could tell he was happy, loved, and super comfortable. Communication was great. Highly recommend!”
“Shirley is the best! She is responsible, kind, and very communicative. We appreciated all the photos she shared and took comfort knowing that our puppy was in great hands with Shirley. You can tell that she is a true animal lover. Highly recommended!!”
“Anton was very kind and accommodating of my anxious dog. It was the very first boarding experience for my dog, Reiki, and he was very nervous when we arrived at Anton's place. I was worried that he would stay restless, but I was totally wrong! Anton sent me photos and updates, which made me feel safe asking more of his service again. Reiki was able to calm down within hours under his care, and very much enjoyed spending time with him 😄.”
“Euitae is very professional and flexible. Vito looked well taken care of and seemed right at home with Euitae and Winston. I’m glad Vito has new friends in the neighborhood!”
“Nari&Ryan are perfect! Latte had a great stay with them with many loves! They shared lots of photos and videos. Will definitely come back and recommend to anyone!”
“Lal, Matt & Hank were great! My doggy boys stayed with them for a week while we were travelling out of state and they looked like they were having a nice little doggy vacation themselves with their new found friends. Lal would keep us updated with how our boys were doing by also posting pictures and videos along with the texts and e-mails. Lal really took the time to get to know the boys well specially during their meet and greet. Plus the fact that their LabraDoodle, Hank got along very well with the boys made me really feel at ease. I would definitely pick them again for our upcoming travels. So happy to know that my doggy boys were in good hands while we were away. Highly recommended.”
About: What sets me apart is the combination of hands-on experience, professional pet care skills, and a home environment designed around each dog’s individual needs. I have about 5 years of experience caring for dogs, including dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I pay close attention to body language, comfort level, and interactions so I can recognize when a dog is relaxed, overwhelmed, or needs more personal space. Pet care is my full-time focus, and I’m both pet CPR certified and a certified groomer. This allows me to provide attentive daily care while also helping with brushing, bathing, coat care, and general cleanliness when requested. My home has a private backyard of approximately 900 square feet for supervised outdoor play and potty breaks, along with additional rooms that allow me to separate dogs based on size, temperament, energy level, or individual comfort needs. I understand that every dog has a different routine, so I do my best to accommodate feeding schedules, sleeping preferences, sensitivities, and other special instructions from parents. I also send frequent photo and video updates throughout each stay. My goal is not only to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and cared for, but also to give parents real peace of mind while they are away. Caring for dogs is a major part of my daily life and my full-time focus. Because I have a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, outdoor play, feeding, rest time, and plenty of individual attention throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and adjusting their routine so they can feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay. I’m pet CPR certified and also a certified groomer, so I’m comfortable providing basic coat care, brushing, bathing, and grooming services when requested. For longer boarding stays, I’m happy to include a complimentary basic bath when appropriate. For shorter stays, bathing or grooming services can be added for an additional fee. My priority is always to provide attentive, reliable, and personalized care for every dog staying with me. I live in a clean and well-kept home with a private backyard of approximately 900 square feet, giving dogs plenty of space for supervised outdoor play, potty breaks, and fresh air throughout the day. I also have additional rooms available, which allows me to separate dogs by size, energy level, or comfort needs when necessary. This helps each dog have a safe and quiet place to rest, settle in, and decompress without feeling overwhelmed. I have a 3-year-old Border Collie who is very sweet, gentle, and full of positive energy. He has done very well with other dogs and enjoys spending time and playing with them. I carefully supervise all interactions and introduce dogs gradually, while paying close attention to their body language, personality, and comfort level. I never force dogs to interact if they need more time or personal space. Throughout the day, I provide regular potty breaks, supervised backyard time, playtime, and plenty of opportunities to relax comfortably indoors. I also try to follow each dog’s normal feeding, sleeping, and daily routine as closely as possible. Sleeping arrangements can be flexible based on the owner’s preference and the dog’s needs. For dogs who are more sensitive or feel more secure near people, I can arrange for them to sleep in the same room with me. After outdoor time, I clean the dogs’ paws to help keep them comfortable and maintain a clean living environment. I also pay attention to brushing and overall cleanliness throughout their stay. My goal is to provide a safe, structured, and welcoming home where every dog receives individualized care and owners can feel confident while they are away.
“Thank you Denys for taking such good care of our dogs when we went away for the weekend to meet our new Grandson. Knowing that they were safe and lovingly cared for made our trip so much better. You are the best!”
“Mathew was an awesome sitter for our Pavlo..He gave us up dates and was very attentive to Pavlo…I would recommend Matthew to anyone looking for a sitter! Thanks again! Matthew and Penelope!!”
“Anastasia did a wonderful job of taking care of my dog, mocha. Every picture she sent had mocha looking very comfy, and very happy! She was great at keeping me updated and was amazing when my travel plans changed last minute and I had to pick mocha up later than scheduled. She was very accommodating and helpful in that regard. I know mocha had a great time staying with Anastasia and we will definitely use her again in the future!!!”
About: Hi! I have over 9 years of experience with dog walking and boarding, and I truly love what I do. I focus on making sure every pup feels safe, comfortable, and happy while in my care—whether it’s during a walk or an overnight stay. I treat every pet like family because I believe they deserve the best care and attention. I always keep pet parents updated with messages, photos, and honest communication so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m experienced with maintaining training routines, handling high-energy dogs, and providing gentle care for senior pets. I understand that every dog has their own personality, and I take the time to get to know what makes them feel their best. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being will always be my top priority! I do have a part-time job so I will be working during the mornings. I will always make sure your babies are taken out for good walk and eat before I leave. During that time my family (husband/mom) are home and will be able to help on bathroom schedules and playtime. Your babies will never be alone and my mother is a licensed dog trainer and caretaker in rover as well. I respect all homes and follow rules that have been set by you as the pet parent. I give two photos; one in beginning and another in the end with a video .
“Jialarie was a delight and a great sitter for my pup. I can tell he had a wonderful time and have ample time to release his playful energy. She was responsive and provided pictures and clear communication. I will be booking again in the future.”
“Julia was terrific! She and Bailey hit it off right away. Got a bunch of pics with Bailey out for a walk, playing with toys and a restful night sleep. Will use Julia again!”
About: I treat every dog like family. I'm energetic, dependable, and full of golden retriever energy, I'll keep your pup safe, active, loved, and happy every visit. I work a hybrid Monday–Thursday schedule, so I can provide walks before and after work. On weekends, I have plenty of time for extra walks, playtime, and cuddles. I love having animal companionship and making sure every pet feels happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I have a fenced yard where your dog will be able to run around. I also have a crate (if needed), water bowl, and feeding bowl for when your dog is staying over.
“An amazing sitter for our baby!! She was incredible with Tommy and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. She's a pet lover, friendly, vibrant personality, and she is good to update you daily on how your pet is doing. We didn't have to worry once about our Tommy and we are actually looking forward to her services again in a couple weeks. Thank you Yackie for taking such good care of Tommy!!”
“My first time booking with Wendy and everything was amazing! If we are ever in need of petsitting again, Wendy would be my first call. She was extremely communicative throughout, and sent us lots of photos and videos. My dog is a bit sensitive and like our baby, so we do not trust her in anyone’s hands. That said, I found her to be trustworthy and I knew my fur baby was in good hands!”
“My doodle, Pacey, was so well cared for and judging by the constant stream of happy photos, he clearly felt right at home. Thank you for the care, the cuddles, and the great communication! We can’t wait to book again.”
“Diana was very responsive and professional with my stay for my young high energy dog. She sent adorable pictures very often which made me happy while I was away. Her home is spacious and clean, and there's a backyard which was perfect for my dog to go potty in the snowy weather during my trip. Would definitely recommend and book again! Thank you Diana!!”
