“Jeffrey was great with our dogs! He took wonderful care of them. He provided regular updates and photos, which we really appreciated. We would be happy to have Jeffrey watch our dogs again in the future.”
“Absolutely wonderful experience with Mary and her husband! They took amazing care of our Bentley. Mary was extremely attentive, took the best pictures & videos and provided us with regular updates. It was easy to see how well they cared for him. We are so thankful to them for loving on our little guy and would highly recommend over and over again!”
“Hiring Dana to dogsit Buster was the best decision. We usually board him at the vet, but wanted a change so that he would have a more social, active and fun experience. Dana was thoughtful, caring, communicative and flexible throughout the entire process (from booking to pickup). She took excellent care of Buster with specific attention to our requests. She sent us many wonderful photos of his daily activities, which included several nature and park walks. Buster had his own little vacation exploring new places while we enjoyed ours in complete peace of mind. We happily give Dana the highest praise and rating with respect to our experience with her. She is a true animal lover and a nice person.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter! Our dog is very high energy and requires a lot of attention, exercise and patience. Kathleen handled everything beautifully. We came home to a happy, healthy and well-cared-for pup. Communication was excellent throughout our trip with regular updates and photos that showed how much fun our dog was having, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was treated with genuine care and affection not just looked after. We highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with her again.”
“I would 10/10 recommend Jennifer if you’re looking for dog boarding services. Jennifer and her family treats my dog with so much love and care. I have been using her service for almost a year already and can’t think of a better sitter for my dog. You won’t regret leaving your pup with her!! Thanks again for all you do, Jennifer!”

It was clear from the many picture updates that Veronica sent that our pup was having a blast with the other dogs! He was a tired boy when he came home! :) We will definitely book with Veronica again. Her professionalism, communication, and care for dogs are the hallmarks of a phenomenal sitter.”

Thanks I have a large, enclosed yard where your dog can run and play freely and happily , I can easily create your dog if needed .Leave your baby in my hands.

“Yuhan was amazing in caring for Daisy. We were very pleased! It was our first time boarding Daisy, and our anxiety was immediately put to rest the first day with pictures and updates from Yuhan that we received throughout her 5-day stay. Daisy did so well in Yuhan's care. We have found a permanent sitter to book for the future.”
“The absolute best! I couldn’t have left Ollie in better hands. They treated him as if he were their own and sent me pictures and updates along the way. I loved having access to the ring camera so I could see what Ollie was up to at any time. I will definitely without hesitation be using them again.”
“My Black Labrador Retriever stayed with Jennifer for an extended weekend and seemed to love his time there. Jennifer was keeping me up to date with his stay, with photos and text messages. If your dog likes playing with there dogs, this is a great place for them. There is a big fenced in yard and Cooper was able to run around with her dogs (I think there are 5). I look forward to having Cooper stay there again. Jennifer is a very nice person and seems to really love dogs.”

“Emma is so friendly and a great cat sitter! She was very through in asking about their care and treated them well. My cats can be rambunctious but she did a good job at separating them for feedings and playing with them. She also sent great update photos with the rover cards throughout their care. Would highly recommend!”
“We had a great experience with Heather taking care of our cats while we were away. She was able to visit them a couple times a day, which really put our mind at ease. Heather was prompt, reliable, and communicated clearly throughout our trip. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve always loved cats and enjoy spending time with them. While most of my pet-care experience is with dogs, I’m comfortable around cats and understand that they each have their own personalities and boundaries. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow each cat’s routine and their owner’s instructions to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
“Lucy was great! Our super shy kitties who never come out for anyone, made multiple appearances for Lucy! She was very responsive and took plenty of photos for us while we were gone. Will definitely be going with Lucy again!”

“Ally treated our kitty as her own, and he was clearly enthralled with her and her visits!! Ally was extremely communicative the whole time we were away and sent lots of updates, photos, and videos so we knew he was so loved and well cared for during our absence. We have used lots of great pet sitters and walkers from Rover for years… and can say that Ally is absolutely in the top 1%. She is the best of the best, and her passion for her work is evident. Without any hesitation, we recommend Ally to care for your fur babies!!!!!”

That never happens. Excellent communication, super friendly, and just awesome experience that made our night worry free. Thank you both, these guys would certainly love to see you again on our next visit.”

Jessica then followed up with clear communication, made sure I felt completely comfortable before the booking, and ensured all details of the day were clear. Throughout the day, she sent regular updates and the cutest photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s clear that Jessica genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. My puppy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well‑loved. I would absolutely book with Jessica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and truly caring sitter.”
“Cleo is a very skittish rescue. Emilie seems to have the magic touch with her. Maybe Cleo feels so comfortable with her because she picks up her kindness and love for dogs. You can't go wrong with Emilie.”

About: Pets are family, and when you're away, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved, not stressed or lonely. That's why I welcome pets into my home and care for them as if they were my own. I'm a healthcare professional who works from home most of the time, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, supervision, and care throughout the day. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing nearby, I'll make sure they feel right at home. I'm also the proud dog mom of Milo, a sweet 3-year-old Cockapoo. Milo is friendly, playful, and gets along well with both dogs and children. He loves having furry friends over and is always happy to share his toys, naps, and playtime. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving home away from home for your pet. We understand how important peace of mind is when you're away, and we'll treat your dog with the same care, attention, and affection that we give Milo every day. 🐾❤️ Both my husband and I work from home most of the time. We have two kids in elementary school. We walk our dog regularly between breaks. I live in a single house with a fenced backyard. My 2.5 old cockapoo Milo is a sweet, friendly dog. My two kids love dogs.
“Ena and Daniel watched my pup on very short notice today- which I appreciated immensely! My little girl is very skittish and I was worried that she wouldn’t interact but it was just the opposite- within 15 minutes of me dropping her off they posted pictures of her on their laps, drinking water and hanging out with their dog it made my stressful day so much better! I will definitely be using them again!”
“We had a nice experience with Mariia. She made sure our puppy, Benny was comfortable and spent quality time with him for the evening when we left him with her and her family. Our puppy was offered pee/poop breaks regularly, meal time was followed and he got plenty of play time. We were very happy with her service!”
“What an operation she's got! She had meatball for about 6 hours and WORE. HER. OUT!!!! I can only imaging how much she played and how great a time she had. Meatball and I have more than a little separation anxiety for one another, so I don't like leaving her with just anyone. I will happily run back to Roseanna. Thank you, Roseanna. You made a terrible day, tolerable.”

About: Hi there! I'm Heather, a lifelong dog lover excited to give your pup the care and attention they deserve. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or cozy naps, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I’ll keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your best friend is in good hands. Can’t wait to meet your furry family member! I’m currently doing school online, which gives me a very open and flexible schedule. I’m available most days and can provide consistent care, attention, and companionship. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’m able to prioritize the pets I’m caring for. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s needs, routines, and any special instructions. I always ensure pets are supervised, comfortable, and in a clean, safe environment. Whether I’m in your home or caring for your pet during visits, I provide lots of attention, playtime, and care while respecting your space and your pet’s routine.
“Christopher is clearly a dog person and it shows. My dog couldn’t be more excited to see him. He showed up rain or shine and went above and beyond for exercise and play time with him while I was away. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I’ve loved and been around animals since childhood. Growing up, my family had both cats and dogs. As an adult, I now have 2 cats of my own. I’m very passionate about human-animal connection. I am currently a graduate student taking night classes two days a week. This is something I’m hoping to fill my spare time with :) I view and treat animals with the same respect as I do people. Pets need not only the necessities, but a high level of emotional attention.
“Bella is so great with our dog, Mimi! She’s communicative with us and patient with our elderly dog. We love working with her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a dogsitter!”
“Simba completed his first week of walking with Tim, and he is loving it! Tim is very friendly and always on time. He gives us regular and plenty of updates about the walk- the route, potty/pee-pee breaks, and of course many photos of our fuzzball on the walk <3 Simba is very comfortable walking with Tim, and I can tell that he looks forward to his walks with him already.”
About: As a lifelong dog lover and detail‑oriented professional, I provide safe, structured, and affectionate care for every pup I host. I’m committed to keeping your dog’s routine consistent, their environment calm, and you fully updated with photos and check‑ins. Whether your dog loves long walks, quiet snuggles, or playtime, I tailor each stay to their needs so you can travel with total peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I structure my days around consistency and reliability. I make time each morning and evening for feeding, play, and check‑ins, and I keep my schedule flexible enough to accommodate drop‑ins, medication routines, or extra attention for pets who need it. I prioritize maintaining each animal’s normal rhythm — whether that means early breakfasts, midday enrichment, or quiet evening companionship — so their routine stays steady even while you’re away. Clear communication is part of my daily flow as well, so you can expect regular updates and photos throughout each visit. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, predictable environment that feels safe and familiar for them. I follow your instructions exactly — from feeding and litter box routines to preferred play styles and comfort needs — and I take time to build trust at your pet’s pace. I’m attentive to small details like keeping spaces tidy, refreshing water frequently, and monitoring behavior for any signs of stress or discomfort. I also respect your home by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. Throughout each visit, I send updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel confident they’re receiving thoughtful, reliable care.
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for most of my life. I got my first dog around age 11 and have had multiple dogs over the years, along with a ferret, hamster, and fish. I’ve also helped care for family members’ dogs and cats whenever they needed someone they could trust. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pet has their own personality and routine. Animals have always been a big part of my life and continue to be. I truly enjoy being around them and caring for them, and I always joke that one day I’m going to end up with my own little farm because I want every animal I see! I work from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m able to take breaks for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, or whatever a pet may need. My daily routine is pretty laid back, so I have the time and flexibility to give pets plenty of attention and care. I’ll be caring for pets in their own homes, where they’re already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I would always talk with the pet parent beforehand about their normal routine, what they’re allowed or not allowed to do, feeding instructions, walks, and any other specific needs. I’m big on following the owner’s instructions, keeping their pet safe and comfortable, and being respectful of their home and belongings.
About: I became a cat mom in 2019, and have since spent time volunteering at a cat shelter and a farm (taking care of kittens, piglets and goats!). I’ve always been drawn to animals and will take great care of your pets! I have a flexible schedule, and generally available both weekends and weekdays for a set period of time. Please feel free to reach out to discuss your needs! My preference is to take of pets in my client’s home, since I have a cat that does not get along easily with other animals. Depending on the duration of the pet-sitting, I can do day trips or overnights.
About: I grew up with the most incredible yorkie-poo for 16 years, and I’ve been filling the void by following way too many dog Instagram accounts. I really miss having a dog around, so your dog will get a lot of attention and be in great hands. I’ve looked after pit bulls, a Shar-Pei, doodles, an Alaskan Klee Kai, and mixed breeds of all sizes. Whether your dog is big, little, high-energy, anxious, stubborn, or just wants a buddy nearby, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I may find it hard to get work done because I’ll probably spend too much time hanging out with your dog. And if they’re into people food, I’ll respectfully disappoint them unless you tell me otherwise. I’m in a flexible stretch right now, doing job-search work, contract work, and projects mostly from home. That means I can usually build my day around walks, drop-ins, or hanging with your pet. I’m best for weekday daytime care, evenings, and some weekends with a little notice. If I have an interview, work call, or trip coming up, I’ll be upfront before booking so there are no surprises. I’m pretty careful and communicative by default. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep dogs leashed unless you explicitly say otherwise, double-check doors/gates, and send updates so you know your pet is good. I’m not going to freestyle with food, treats, medications, dog parks, or anything that could create a weird situation. If I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the same respect I’d want someone to show mine.

“We left Sunny with Kristin for the first time for 5 days/nights, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience.

Kristin truly went above and beyond to make sure Sunny had everything she needed and received plenty of care and attention. We would absolutely trust Kristin with Sunny again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable, and loving dog sitter!”
“Danielle did an amazing job watching our little noodle Zoey! She loved every moment and we can tell she was very loved during her stay. Highly recommend!”
“Emelie is a great dog sitter! This was our first time having our 2 year old dog stay with Emelie. She provided a meet and greet well ahead of his stay, and was very communicative and responsive ahead of and during the long weekend. We had to make a last minute change in our schedule, and she readily accommodated. Her set-up is ideal, with plenty of outdoor and indoor space, and a few other dogs to play with. Finally, Emelie gets dog social dynamics and is very effective at managing the set up all around.”
