“My dog had a great time with Jennifer, Thomas and their kids. They’ shared photos of her getting petted on the couch and going on walks. She was exhausted when she came home after having had a very fun day with this lovely family.”
“We’ve left our pup Soup here for daycare and overnight boarding and each time he comes back tired and happy! He gets great outdoor play time with other dogs and cuddle time with the humans. We will definitely be using their services again.”
“Nicole was fantastic. This was the first time I ever left my dog with anyone other than family. She consistently provided updates and pictures. My dog was well cared for.”
“Jane was our first time leaving our 18 month old pup with non-family. Though it took us 25 minutes to get there, it was definitely worth the drive. Jane offers a safe, caring dog-friendly, people-friendly home. She understood our anxiety and took time with both us and our dog. During the 2 days of boarding, Jane sent us photos and messages for peeks at how our dog was settling in, making friends, getting exercise and chilling out. A good time was had by all!”
“Nicole is amazing! She's accommodating, responds quickly, loves my dog and genuinely takes care of him showing love and TLC! She has a stunning outdoor set-up for furry friends and could not be lovelier. I will continue to request her services before looking for anyone else! I highly recommend her!”
“Jen is an amazing sitter. She was super easy to communicate with. Her dogs are adorable and friendly. She gave me the exact right amount of updates during Stokli’s stay and was flexible with drop-off and pick-up. I will book her again if I get the chance!”
“Kayte was amazing!!! My dog has anxiety, but he felt right at home with Kayte. They even went on a 5-mile walk that I’ll now have to live up to haha. She sent pics daily and Onyx always looked so happy and safe. I’ll definitely be using Kayte again!!!”
“We had a family medical issue and was able to book Jacqueline quickly. Our dogs are both rescues and it matters a great deal to us who we bring into their lives. Jacqueline immediately made us, and our dogs, feel comfortable and within 5 minutes of being with them, our eldest was resting in her lap. Jaqueline sent constant photos and updates and we are very grateful to have found her and will for sure book her again. TY again, Jaqueline. That last note was from the pups!”
“Simon watched our little pup while we went away for the weekend. The two of them became fast buddies and we were grateful to know our little guy was with someone he was so comfortable with.”
“Victoria is incredible as always! Zelda is excited to go see her, which is such a relief when we have to go out of town. We know that she’s in good hands and that we don’t have to worry.”
“Rosalie is fabulous and Brinkley had a wonderful time. We did one overnight and got the cutest pictures while we were away. Brinkley thrives with easygoing energy and Rosalie's space and personality were exactly that. Thank you for having Brinkley, we'll be back!”
“I highly recommend Amanda! This was my first time using Rover as well as my 5 year old dog's first time staying with anyone other than family. Amanda was great with communication from the beginning and reassuring throughout the whole process from initial contact to setting up a meet and greet to regular updates while we were away. My dog took to her right away and felt very comfortable with her throughout her stay as seen by cuddling pictures and happy outdoor time. I feel so fortunate to have found a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”
“Amy was nice when I first met her for a meet and greet with my dogs. Both were happy and comfortable with her. We communicated through text and she sent me updates to include pictures.”
“Janice was the absolute best when we left our mini dachshund Bean with her for a few days over the Christmas holiday. Bean is kind of nervous at times and requires a lot of human love and care which Janice and family provided in abundance. Usually Bean gives me the cold shoulder when I leave him overnight but he was not mad at all when I picked him up. The property is beautiful and Janice was extremely responsive including sending pictures! Would absolutely recommend Janice for anyone needing someone to care for their dogs. She treated him like family and we were so grateful. Thank you Janice!”
“Sophia is so lovely and gentle. I felt very confident that she would be a sweet caretaker for Fiona. She sent me photos and responded quickly. She was very upfront when we met about other things she would be doing while Fiona was there and I really appreciated her doing so. We were able to talk about Fiona’s needs and quirks and how best to address them for everyone’s benefit. Would definitely use her again when she’s in town!”
“Eleanor cared for our Elf, a rescued Yorkie, for two weeks. She sent us pics, consulted us when picky Elf dithered about her meals, took her on many walks and essentially treated Elf as her own fur baby! Eleanor did a super job. I would highly recommend her.”
“she was an excellent nanny for Pluto .. she was always in contact with me, she sent me photos and videos, she looked after Pluto for 5 days ... 100% recommended, she has a lot of love and responsibility for pets”

“Barbara was extremely responsive and helped us in a time-sensitive situation with our kitty. She provided excellent communication and was a huge help. We highly recommend her!”
“Victoria went above and beyond to take care of our kitty—over the holiday season and regardless of a blizzard that made travel difficult, she showed up! The updates and photos were so appreciated and thank you for bringing in our packages and deliveries too. Highly recommend and will book with her again!”
“Elizabeth is a perfect communicator and made me feel my cat was in great hands the week I was away. I could tell from her reports that she really understood and appreciated my cat, and that they had a really nice time together. I give Elizabeth my highest recommendation, and will definitely be reaching back out to her when I'm next out of town!”
“Arthur was a wonderful sitter for my two cats-- he is clearly a true cat lover and my cats were very well taken care of when I came home. He also sent very sweet pictures and videos during every check in. Will definitely rebook!”
“We were very pleased with Rose's care for Nina. She was diligent in providing information and pics on Nina. We will definitely use her services again and will recommend to others. Thank you.”
“Steve provides my cats with loving care while I am away. I have one cat who is difficult and can be unfriendly and he has won her over! He sends pictures of her sitting on his lap! He is always prompt and thoroughly cleans the litter box. I love the photo updates he sends while visiting with the cats - I can tell that they are well-cared for. He truly loves animals - it is very obvious from the care and attention they receive.”
“Sophia was fantastic. She was very communicative, attentive and trustworthy. Everything was left neat and clean. We had one little blip and then she went well beyond the call of duty to make up for it. She took amazing care of my kitty. I would absolutely use Sophia again!”
“Simon was very competent, reliable and devoted to the care of our cat, Opie. He stayed in our house for a week caring for our cat. Opie seemed happy and well cared for on our return. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Simon.”
About: I Work nights! I am off Thursday and Friday nights. I've rasied my 80lb. Female dog from when she was 4 weeks old to about 6 years. I'm very active and love to take my dog out for runs. Very disciplined and have taught my big girl to behave politely in NYC. I've taken care of huskies and smaller dogs like chihuahuas and poodles for neighbors as well! I work overnights and just moved to an Tamnersville. I would love to walk or just spend time with a dog. My dog is home on staten island with family and I miss spending time with dogs so much! Hygiene and cleanliness at home are priority. A lot of canine care is knowing what each dogs' wants and needs are. Each dog will communicate to you what they want and need. Communication with the owner is key along with ensuring the dog is well fed and stimulated!
“We love Laurel! Our super shy cat came out of hiding by day two and was comfortable enough to eat while she was around. She is experienced, detail oriented, calm, and caring, which both my senior cats responded well to her. She was flexible on a holiday weekend, which we greatly appreciated! We are so glad we found Laurel because now we can plan more trips and vacations.”
About: I would love to take your dog for a walk or hike in and around the Woodstock area. I have many years of experience owning dogs and cats, and dog and cat sitting for friends since I was a kid. I have also spent time walking dogs at animal shelters and am trained in pet first aid and cpr. I love big dogs, little dogs and anything in between :) I'm usually available during the day and some evenings and weekends. I love to hike and would also be happy to hike with your dog. I'm passionate about health and wellness and natural living. I'm originally from the UK but have been living in NY for over two decades. I live in the Woodstock area with my two daughters, our two rescue dogs and our rescue kitten. I’m usually out walking dogs in the morning and working from home in the afternoons. My dogs love to play with other pups and we enjoy going on long walks or taking care of pets in our home. I’m also available for drop in visits at your home, or for your dogs to stay at our home while you are away. I always keep dogs on the leash and make sure we get plenty of time outside. I have plenty of dog toys and beds in the house for playing and naps.

About: I didn’t get to experience the joy of growing up with dogs or cats but as soon as I was able I began taking in fosters from the NYC shelter system. It was quite a learning experience spending time with many dogs (and a few cats) of all different types and personalities. I no longer foster but I bring the experience and dedication from working with so many shelter pets to caring for your furry family members. And as a pet parent now myself I have been through many sitters so I understand what makes a good one! A note on boarding and meet and greets: I’m happy to have boarding candidates come by to meet me and check out the space but I do not do meet and greets with my own dogs. My dogs are dog friendly but they are too chaotic and excitable to meet new dogs and owners right away. New dogs are kept separate at first and introduced at their own pace when everyone is calm. This minimizes stress for everyone and allows for better interactions. I currently work out of the house Monday/Wednesday/Friday but my schedule is somewhat flexible. The rest of the week I work at home and I am often available all weekend. Dogs in my home have access to a securely fenced large yard for running and fetch, as well as a quiet neighborhood for walks. If the weather is warm dogs have access to a dog door so they may go outside as they please. If your dog likes to play with other dogs mine will certainly be happy to accommodate but they can also have separate spaces if quiet time is needed. In your home I will make every effort to keep your pets schedule as familiar as possible while offering lots of love and stimulation. As someone who has had many sitters come through and stay at my house I understand the importance of trust and cleanliness so you can be away without worry.
“5 STAR! ? Just a pleasure. She took me at the last minute. Communicated wonderfully. Sent me pictures and videos. Honestly the best rover experience I’ve had! My dog had a blast and came ready to sleep after a fun filled day.”
“Communication with Amy and Chris was smooth and easy. They're both very caring, and Boo had a good day with Chris. I will say that given Boo's energy level -- he's a hunting-dog mutt who loves to run --he's probably better off where there's a fenced yard or an opportunity for long walks...but this is no reflection on Amy and Chris. It was our choice to give them a try.”
“My dog had an AMAZING time with Nicole. He can be a bit anxious, but warmed right up to her and really enjoyed spending the day napping on the couch and taking walks. If I ever find myself needing a sitter in the area again I would rebook with Nicole in a heartbeat, especially since she even has fenced in areas outside that would be amazing when the weather warms up.”
“Rosalie was SO GOOD and patient with our nervous chihuahua. She sent great updates and he had a lovely time in her home and fenced yard. We highly recommend her for dogs of all sizes! :)”
“Amanda was an amazing sitter for our dog Honey! She was thoughtful, communicative, flexible on timing, and Honey seemed so happy and calm when we picked her up. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: My own dogs are always the #1 teacher. They show me how to best care for them - with food, play, training, medications, travel, sleepless days and nights when they've been ill, and giving them all them comfort I can. I've volunteered at dog shelters, spent hours walking dogs in all kinds of weather, and offered comfort to friends who've had to say goodbye to their best fur friends. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give your pets plenty of attention - playing, feeding, and scratching behind the ears. I take my dog for swims in the river, off leash romps in the woods, and leashed walks around town. We also play fetch and tug-of-war in the house or on the deck. If your dog needs a playmate, my dog, Jackson, may be a good fit. My cats - depending on their mood - like to lounge in the sun, pounce on the occasional toy, run up stairs, and hunt for treats I've hidden for them.
About: Hello! I’m a professional writer who works from home and often watches my neighbors’ dogs just because I think it’s fun. I joined Rover to help others who might need last-minute dog sitting. My own golden retriever Emmett chills with me all day and we go for walks around the block at lunchtime and we’d love for your friend to join us! I host one dog at a time (in addition to Emmett). I’ve been around dogs and pets of all kinds my whole life and am happy to just spend some quality time feeding, patting, walking or running with a good pooch. I’m super comfortable with all breeds, just maybe not strong enough to handle anyone over 100 pounds unless they’re super well trained. I’ve seen Emmett and my previous dogs, Henry and Teddy, through all kinds of ear infections, hot spots, and geriatric arthritis treatments and am really good at finding ticks! My brother has Emmett’s brother, Gary, so you’ll see the two of them in a few pics together. I’m a remote freelance writer so my schedule is very flexible. I walk Emmett every day at least three times a day so it’s really easy to add an additional dog to the mix. I’m home all day so we all hang. Our yard is unfortunately not fenced but because I spend a lot of time at my computer I balance that with a lot of midday dog walks. When your pet stays here it’s very chill; as long as your dog gets along with Emmett they’ll have full range of the house and can snooze wherever and then we’ll go walk about around the block a few times, which nets out to be about a mile.
“Great experience of doggy day care. Eleanor met us and our dog prior to the doggy day care visit. She has a calm demeanor. She sent photos throughout the day to show us our dog was content - what more can one ask for? Thank you Eleanor.”
“Jacqueline was very friendly and communicative, and Bunsen took an instant liking. We received photos of her well-being during her stay and of her mile walk. Jacqueline’s home is conveniently located in a popular historic town, making drop-off/pickup easy on the way to/from Hunter Ski Resort from our hotel. Bunsen was well cared for and happy. She was also so tired, that she managed to rest during the long car ride back home! We would book Jacqueline again.”
About: I grew up in a cat household and became a dog mom as soon as I left home. I absolutely love all of the cats and dogs I’ve been fortunate enough to meet in this life. I raised my pup, Grumble, from 3 weeks old until she left this world at 11 years old. I am very familiar with the range of needs a dog will have throughout life, from teething to play to mobility assistance. I'm fully available in the winter as my regular job (gardening) is seasonal and won't be picking up again until later in the spring time. I can be flexible to your pets needs and more than happy to follow any directions you provide me with for their optimal care and contentment.
“Marielle took great care of my little Zuzu! My puppy started the day sad about me leaving her there and by the end she was totally bonded with Marielle! She was also totally tuckered out so she clearly got plenty of exercise.”
About: I am recently retired and a new dog owner as of 2024. I enjoy spending time with dogs and my own dog, Tilly, is very socialable with other dogs and humans. The fenced in backyard is a combination of grass and woods, providing plenty of areas to explore, relax and play. Currently retired and a relatively new dog owner (1+ year). I can host your pet any day of the week providing I am home. I enjoy walking, playing and napping with my dog Tilly and would provide the same level of care for your dog. My backyard is fenced in and provides plenty of space to roam around. There are paths through the wooded area, a large section of grass and plenty of shade. On a pleasant day, your pup will spend a good deal of time playing with our dog Tilly outside and then napping on the couch or an outside bed.

“My dog absolutely loves Jesmine and Channon’s place. She always looks to be having a good time. Today she didn’t even want to leave. These are good people and I look forward to my pup staying with them again.”
About: Hello! My partner and I have dog-sat for friends many times, but the request doesn’t come frequently enough! We’re happy to host your pet and treat it as if it were our own. We work nearby our apartment and can walk your dog during the day. We are fine with pets on our furniture and in our bed, but will respect any training you have in place. We’ll joyfully take your pet on long walks and adhere to feeding schedules. I have trained my family dogs in the past, and are happy to teach your pup a few new tricks! We ask for well-behaved, house-trained dogs OR crate-trained provided you have a crate. We’ll adore your pet completely while you’re away with all the attention you would provide to be sure it doesn’t get too lonely without you! Happy to send through photo updates so you can sleep easy knowing they’re in good hands. I have been working from home and accommodate just about every dog’s schedule! Generally, most of the dogs we sit are walked 2-4 times a day and fed twice. We have a spacious and secure 2 bedroom aparment and are generally home all week, with lots of lounging around on the weekends as well. We always prioritize your pet’s needs above all else and will comply with their typical schedule.

“Venetia showed up on time (a little early even to get the lowdown on my dog!) and helped burn some puppy energy! She took my 1 year old dog on a nice nature walk with beautiful pics :-) She was very patient with some naughty behaviors we're working on (jumping!) and her calm demeanor put my boy at ease to go off with a stranger. She responded promptly to my requests and was VERY thorough with getting all of Reshi's information. Will be using her services again soon and would def recommend Venetia for your pets needs :-)”
About: Hi! I'm Liz, a dedicated animal caretaker with over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and pocket pets. I'm passionate about keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe, whether it's through daily walks, playtime, or administering medications. I treat every animal like a member of my own family and take pride in providing consistent, loving, care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I work from home, so pet care fits into my daily or weekly routine in a way that is structured but flexible, depending on the pets' needs, and the type of care I am providing. I have over an acre in my back yard that can be enjoyed for playtime with pets. I have secure doors in my house, and I keep my home secure and pet-proof. No small objects or breakable items in areas where we play and spend time. I have a pet first-aid kit on hand in my home. I have contact information for local veterinarians and emergency clinics readily available. I have some basic knowledge in first-aid and CPR for dogs and cats.
About: I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs since I was young. I would love to take care of your beloved pets. I adore animals! I currently work part-time and have a lot of availability in between my work schedule. I can easily pet care during the week and on the weekends. I am 100% present and naturally intuitive with animals. I am there for whatever they may need. They will be cared for and loved when they are with me.
About: An experienced and professional petsitter who has previously worked for On Paws Professional Pet Services in San Marcos, Texas. I have also grown up with two dogs and a bird, who have since passed. My roommates' cats and dogs have felt like family to me, and treated as such. Since living on my own I’ve had my own cat, Umami who is the cutest character and wild child that I loved so dearly! I would love to keep your pet company (and vise versa!) I’m currently only working remotely part-time, so I have some wiggle room to care for your pet(s)! I would be able to feed, play, and walk with them during my time off! I would definitely treat them as my own, and try to make them as happy and comfortable as possible, while making sure their needs are met.
About: Hi, I'm Marceline! Growing up with a wildlife rehabilitator for a parent, I was surrounded by animals from day one. From bottle-feeding baby raccoons to gently caring for injured birds, I learned early on the patience, empathy, and responsibility that animals deserve. That lifelong passion turned into a career of caring: I spent 4 years at a cat shelter, helping to socialize, medicate and find loving homes for many cats. Beyond that, I've volunteered extensively at Farm sanctuaries and animal shelters, gaining hands-on experience with dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, and more! Whether your pet is playful and energetic or shy and sensitive, I'm dedicated to providing calm, attentive, loving care that meets their unique needs. I know how important it is to trust someone with your animal family. You can count on me to treat your pets like my own - with respect, reliability and plenty of love. Let's connect - I'd love to meet you and your pets! Because I have an open schedule, I'm able to dedicate focused time throughout the day for walks, feedings, play, medication and whatever unique care each pet needs. I plan my day around their routines, not the other way around - whether that means early morning visits, midday potty breaks, evening cuddle time, or sleepovers. I'm used to structuring my day with animals in mind, especially my own cats and hermit crabs. Being attentive to animals' behaviors and needs is second nature to me, and I always make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and consistency throughout the day. When you leave your pet in my care, you're not just hiring someone to feed or walk them - you're trusting me with a member of your family. I take that responsibility seriously. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is at the heart of everything I do. I closely follow your pet's routines, dietary needs, and any medical requirements to make sure they stay happy and healthy. Im experienced in handling a wide range or animals - including those with special needs, and I always keep a close eye on behaviot and well-being When I visit your home for your pet, I strive to create a low-stress environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and loved. From cozy resting spots to familiar routines and gentle handling, I make sure your pet feels right at home with me.

About: Hi! We’re Travis and Meredith, both absolute dog lovers (particularly big dogs) with a 12 year old mid-sized pup ourselves. We are active and would love to get your dog exercise and nature time! We have been pet sitting for 6 years and have lots of experience with large energetic dogs! Meredith is also available for dog walking! Our dog Sammy is a neutered 12 year old male. He is sweet as can be and either a total couch potato or pulling on a hike, no in-between. He gets along with every dog he’s met and we are very experienced at managing him with other dogs! Both of us work from home and we have a beautiful fenced yard that your pup will get plenty of access to. We are able to accommodate most every type of activity level. We can accommodate neighborhood walks, playing fetch, hiking long or short in preserves - just let us know what your pupper needs! Our home has a small fenced yard, and a large gravel run that we can play fetch in! Our home is counter safe and we keep the house clean and free from anything dogs can get into.
About: When I was 8, I wrote a poem about how badly I wanted to hang out with animals all day, added my parents' land line #, and then made a ton of copies for each mailbox in the neighborhood. I was sole proprietor of the Elizabeth's House, Dog, Cat, & Plant Sitting operation for about 10 years until I left home for undergrad. Now at 38 I've continued to offer my services to any family, friends, coworkers, etc. in need of a responsible, thoughtful, detail-oriented person for house, pet, and or plant sitting. I have experience caring for pets with a variety of care needs: senior animals, puppies & kittens, pets that need to be administered medication and/or special diets, and animals with behavioral issues. I am deeply respectful of every animal's unique personality, and take time to understand and anticipate your pet's every need. I will treat your fur babies like they're my own! I took a break from Rover for the past 2 years, but now I'm back and excited to meet some new clients <3 I work remotely from home, so my schedule is uniquely flexible to care for your home, pet, plants, either within your space or mine. I'm an early riser and prefer to remain quite active during the day, so I can provide plenty of stimulation for your pets as needed. I treat any space I stay in as if it were my home. This means you'll come back to a clean, tidy, organized house, with thriving plants and happy pets. I'm comfortable with crate training, reinforcing behavioral & obedience training as set by pet owners, and using special muzzles & harnesses for walks as needed. As an amateur horticulture enthusiast, I will also make sure to maintain awareness of the environmental needs of any plants and gardens in my care. I always share GPS location with families when I'm taking their pet on a hike or leaving the home!

About: I will keep you updated throughout the day letting you know how your pet is doing. If you'd like, I can even send you pictures showing how happy your pet is. I freelance in film production which allows me to be flexible with days and time. I have a wired sleeping schedule too which will allow me to go whenever to watch your pet. I make sure my roommates dog is always walked, fed, loved, played with, and above all, has water. I have a natural caring gift for all animals.
About: I've taken care of my grand dog Daisy many weekends while my kids are on vacation. I've dog sat for small and big dogs at my home for many years. Since I am retired, I am able to tend to your pets needs 24/7. I have a very flexible schedule and I am a very active person that will take your dog out for many walks. I live in a spacious condo alone, and do not have any pets. My complex has a dog park which is maintained and kept clean if approved by you. Your pet will receive top notch service under my care.
“Simon helped my husband with our dog's walks after I hurt my knee. He was very responsive, always on time, and flexible. He has a very calming manner and Jack readily went to him and followed him out the door with no hesitation! I highly recommend Simon to care for your dog, and he will remain part of our pack! - Zelda”
About: Currently grieving the passing of my sweet cat Addie. I’ve taken care of cats my whole life and walked dogs professionally in NYC during college. I love befriending animals of all kinds and providing them with care and the services they need. I’m great at reading the vibes each animal gives off and meeting them where they’re at to create a safe and nurturing environment. I’m a screenwriter with a flexible schedule who loves to spend time with animals as a side gig. Because of my flexibility, I’m available for one-off visits and ongoing sitting. As a bit of a helicopter cat mom myself, I know how important it is to pay close attention to an animal’s routine and specific needs. I read and follow rules and requests carefully. I know how vulnerable it is to allow a stranger into your home and to care for someone you hold dear. I take the responsibility seriously.

“We’ve left our pup Soup here for daycare and overnight boarding and each time he comes back tired and happy! He gets great outdoor play time with other dogs and cuddle time with the humans. We will definitely be using their services again.”
“Jane was our first time leaving our 18 month old pup with non-family. Though it took us 25 minutes to get there, it was definitely worth the drive. Jane offers a safe, caring dog-friendly, people-friendly home. She understood our anxiety and took time with both us and our dog. During the 2 days of boarding, Jane sent us photos and messages for peeks at how our dog was settling in, making friends, getting exercise and chilling out. A good time was had by all!”
“Nicole is amazing! She's accommodating, responds quickly, loves my dog and genuinely takes care of him showing love and TLC! She has a stunning outdoor set-up for furry friends and could not be lovelier. I will continue to request her services before looking for anyone else! I highly recommend her!”
“Jen is an amazing sitter. She was super easy to communicate with. Her dogs are adorable and friendly. She gave me the exact right amount of updates during Stokli’s stay and was flexible with drop-off and pick-up. I will book her again if I get the chance!”
“We had a family medical issue and was able to book Jacqueline quickly. Our dogs are both rescues and it matters a great deal to us who we bring into their lives. Jacqueline immediately made us, and our dogs, feel comfortable and within 5 minutes of being with them, our eldest was resting in her lap. Jaqueline sent constant photos and updates and we are very grateful to have found her and will for sure book her again. TY again, Jaqueline. That last note was from the pups!”
“Simon watched our little pup while we went away for the weekend. The two of them became fast buddies and we were grateful to know our little guy was with someone he was so comfortable with.”
“Victoria is incredible as always! Zelda is excited to go see her, which is such a relief when we have to go out of town. We know that she’s in good hands and that we don’t have to worry.”
“Rosalie is fabulous and Brinkley had a wonderful time. We did one overnight and got the cutest pictures while we were away. Brinkley thrives with easygoing energy and Rosalie's space and personality were exactly that. Thank you for having Brinkley, we'll be back!”
“I highly recommend Amanda! This was my first time using Rover as well as my 5 year old dog's first time staying with anyone other than family. Amanda was great with communication from the beginning and reassuring throughout the whole process from initial contact to setting up a meet and greet to regular updates while we were away. My dog took to her right away and felt very comfortable with her throughout her stay as seen by cuddling pictures and happy outdoor time. I feel so fortunate to have found a reliable and trustworthy sitter.”
“Amy was nice when I first met her for a meet and greet with my dogs. Both were happy and comfortable with her. We communicated through text and she sent me updates to include pictures.”
“Janice was the absolute best when we left our mini dachshund Bean with her for a few days over the Christmas holiday. Bean is kind of nervous at times and requires a lot of human love and care which Janice and family provided in abundance. Usually Bean gives me the cold shoulder when I leave him overnight but he was not mad at all when I picked him up. The property is beautiful and Janice was extremely responsive including sending pictures! Would absolutely recommend Janice for anyone needing someone to care for their dogs. She treated him like family and we were so grateful. Thank you Janice!”
“Sophia is so lovely and gentle. I felt very confident that she would be a sweet caretaker for Fiona. She sent me photos and responded quickly. She was very upfront when we met about other things she would be doing while Fiona was there and I really appreciated her doing so. We were able to talk about Fiona’s needs and quirks and how best to address them for everyone’s benefit. Would definitely use her again when she’s in town!”
“Eleanor cared for our Elf, a rescued Yorkie, for two weeks. She sent us pics, consulted us when picky Elf dithered about her meals, took her on many walks and essentially treated Elf as her own fur baby! Eleanor did a super job. I would highly recommend her.”
“Volha was GREAT!! She provided daily updates and pictures while my dog was with her. She made sure my dog stayed on the same schedule while I was away, which is much appreciated! My dog had a great time with her and really loved her stay. Volha and her family are a pleasure and I definitely will leave my Missy girl with her anytime I’m away! Thanks again Volha!”
“Cici was wonderful with Ruby! I had another rover fall through and Cici worker with me to find a solution. We were able to have a very slow and steady meet and greet. It gave Ruby a ton of confidence for the stay. All the updates about how my pup was fitting in with her family were great. She handled the pup well. Would highly recommend”
“I had taken Farley to the vet the afternoon before his stay. Turns out they had to sedate him and he had an infection in his paw. Loretta was AMAZING with him. I felt horrible for leaving still not totally with it yet and Loretta stayed with him, sent me constant updates and even fell asleep on the couch with him❤️ I highly recommend Loretta and I’m so grateful for the way she takes care of my dog!”
“I never worry about Shadow when she is with her sitter. I can relax and enjoy myself because I know she is being well cared for, very fortunate to have found such a wonderful sitter.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Marielle. From our initial get‑to‑know‑you video call, it was clear how thoughtful, organized, and easy to work with she is. Throughout Journey’s stay, Marielle was consistently responsive and sent daily photos and updates, which gave us peace of mind. She is responsible, caring, and attentive, everything you hope for in someone watching your dog. We always felt that Journey was safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while in her home. We would happily book with Marielle again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable sitter.”
