“David was amazing! If you’re a nervous cat mommy like me, don’t worry at all. My baby was so well taken care of, and David sent a ton of updates and pictures while I was away which all pet parents love lol. 10/10, and @David I will be seeing you soon!”

“This was the first time that we have used rover to board our dog while on vacation, and we were incredibly pleased with the care provided to him by Johanny. Our dog (Benny) was just diagnosed as being hypothyroid and was dealing with many different associated conditions that required medicines and a lot of extra care. This was why we decided to try Rover rather than just boarding him at a kennel. Johanny was available at late notice and was amazing with Benny. We received pictures each day and she had no trouble administering all the medications. He was healthy when we returned and we are incredibly grateful for the care that she provided. We will DEFINITELY be using her again in the future.”

“Brooke and Jeremy were absolutely fantastic with Joey! They welcomed him for the weekend and kept me completely at ease with their great communication and updates. I can’t thank them enough for taking such wonderful care of him!”

“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”

“Laura was great with our dog Shadow. He has anxiety and she was very patient with him. She kept us up to date on how he was doing. We definitely will be using her as our dog sitter in the future.”

“To sum it up in one word AMAZING! This was my first time Isabella has not been with me since she was 8 weeks old. Maria and her family took wonderful care of her. I got pictures and updates multiple times a day. Maria responded quickly if I had any questions. She also checked with me prior to doing anything we did not discuss at drop off to be sure I was ok with it. Isabella had such a wonderful time I don’t think she wanted to leave lol. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”


“Kim watched our two dogs and made our first rover experience simple. She responded to all of our questions quickly and kept us updated daily on how our pups were doing. Would recommend to anyone living in the area!”

“I’m very grateful for the wonderful care Pearl & Michael C. provided. They were professional, kind, and clearly passionate about animals. They kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. My pet was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet sitters. Thank you again for treating my pet like your own!”

“Great people, great family. Stella was treated with the same love and attention that we provide her daily. They were very flexible and sent lots of pics to let us know she was ok. Their standard of care was exceptional.”

“Tracy is so great! She took such good care of Fergus while we were gone. Tracy always updated us on Fergus and sent photos of their activities. He really enjoyed all the exercise he got, and we so appreciate Tracy taking special care of our high energy boy. 10/10 would recommend!”


About: To me, pet sitting is never just a job; it is a commitment to keeping your best friend safe, happy, and loved. I know how deeply difficult it is to leave your dog behind. That is why my primary goal is to provide a seamless "home away from home" experience where your pet becomes a cherished part of my family. With over six years of dedicated dog care experience and as a proud parent to my own friendly 3.5-year-old dog, I understand canine behavior and companionship deeply. Your pup will instantly have a built-in playmate and a comforting routine. Your pup will never be lonely here, as I am home full-time to provide constant care, attention, and companionship, meaning our guest dogs enjoy round-the-clock supervision and love from dedicated adult. I maintain a reliable, active routine where our dog, Bruno, enjoys a 20 to 30-minutes walk twice every day, and your dog will be happily included in all of our daily strolls. While I do not have a fenced yard, your dog will get plenty of outdoor exercise and socialisation. Inside, I offer an incredibly spacious layout designed for canine comfort. I have a dedicated separate room and a large, finished basement where guest dogs can freely play, run around, and sleep securely. To ensure a safe, healthy, and clean environment for our young toddler, our own dog, and your pup, I ask that all guest dogs be fully potty trained and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Beyond offering a fun environment, I bring peace of mind. I am highly experienced in administering oral medications, so you can rest assured that any specific healthcare routines your dog requires will be handled safely, accurately, and on time. Because we have a toddler, I maintain a very clean, structured, and safe home environment where all interactions between dogs and children are closely supervised. I treat every guest dog like a member of our own family, ensuring they get plenty of affection, exercise, and personalized care!

“Renata took excellent care of Meg, I knew from her profile that our Meg would be happy and loved and she really didn't disappoint. I can honestly say she is now family and I won't leave Meg with anyone else. THANKS RENATA and Thanks Rover for helping us find her”

“We are very happy with the care that George has provided for our English bulldog Blu. He’s been walked and taken care of so well. He was great at communicating l and sending us pictures every single day. Couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker for my dog. Thank you, George.”

“We, like most pet owners I am sure, were very hesitant to leave our crazy dog with a stranger. Unfortunately A family emergency left us no choice. Once we decided to commit we did a meet n greet with Emanuel (Manny). Emanuel’s love for our four legged animals was apparent from the first meet. During the course of our time away we were given updates and photos of our happy dog. We just picked him up and he was well cared for. We are grateful that should the need to board our Wiley we have a contact that we, including Wiley, can trust.”

“Scott loves dog and my dog had a great time with him. What attracted my attention at the beginning was Scott’s long term experience of taking care of dogs and turned a rescued dog into a therapy dog. During meet and greet, Scott was transparent and he told me his life stories particularly with dogs by showing many pictures. He missed his last dog Jack very much. He also patiently learned my dog’s behavior in order to make my dog being less stressful and comfortable during boarding. He was willing to make changes to accommodate my dog’s behavior and he prepared well before I dropped off my dog. He updated me at least once a day with multiple pictures. I could see my dog was happy, playful and tired. When I picked up my dog, Scott reviewed details with me what happened during my dog’s stay. I highly recommend Scott being your dog sitter. Your dog will be in good hands.”

“We messaged Lori last minute for a dog sitter. She had no problem with it all. She sent us pictures of our baby very often. I didn't worry much and this was my first time that someone I didn't know watching him. She treated him like it was just one of her own dogs and loved him just as much. I will be sure to definitely use her again if I need a dog sitter again.”

“Amber kept our pups happy and healthy and really made them part of the family. It was great getting pictures and updates frequently. They have returned home so much happier than they have been when being kennels in the past.”

“Joan was a great sitter for our baby, Nimer. I loved receiving daily updates on how he was doing as well as pictures and videos. We chose the boarding option, and Nimer had the best time at Joan's house, sleeping on her bed, playing in the cat tunnels, and climbing the cat trees. He also got along so well with her ferrets! Her house is free of any harmful products and is a safe space for just about any pet. Nimer will definitely be coming back when we go on our next trip. Highly recommend!”

“Denise was wonderful with my kitties, even my one kitty who is scared of strangers came out and was loving being petted by Denise. She did everything just the way i asked. I received pictures everyday I was away. I will definitely have Denise care for my kitties in the future if she is available. Thank you so very much 🐈⬛🐾❤️”

“From the first meet and greet Amanda was the sweetest! I knew I could trust her with our home and kitties. Her report cards were very detailed and pictures were much appreciated. We haven’t been home just yet but I am sure everything will be amazing. I would recommend her for your vacation needs!!! THANK YOU AMANDA! We will def be rebooking when needed!”


“Erika did a wonderful job sitting for our three cats during our vacation - our shyest cat (who usually hides when we're away) was out and had conversations with her! Highly recommend Erika, she's great with animals and very communicative.”


About: I have had cats my whole life; currently, I have two sassy girls. I had four cats at the same time once, and though it was chaotic and a lot to handle, I loved being surrounded by so many little fur balls at once. I have watched cats for my friends and family while their owners were away or on vacation, and everything went smoothly. I know that there is nothing extraordinary that sets me apart from others, but I would love your cats as if they were my own. I even treat stray cats and animals the same way. I am fully capable and of caring for these babies and I look forward to proving that!

“I was really nervous to have my 2 cats pet-sat for the first time, but there was no reason to be! Justina was awesome, and my cats loved her, even the fickle Siamese one. 😂 During the 9 days my husband and I were gone, she provided liberal amounts of photos and updates. She also left our house clean and tidy afterwards. We will definitely use her again!”

About: I have cared for pets of all ages and breeds. I am comfortable handling and walking energetic youngsters and senior dogs that require a little more patience I have a full time job that has flexible hours. Some days I am available all day and other days I have to leave for a few hours but I’m always back home for dinner time or walks around the neighborhood I care for all pets as if they were my own. I appreciate their personalities and quirks. I am excited to add more animals to my pet sitting fam!
“Phoebe is amazing!! She is so good with both of our pups!! She's easy to book and we're so comfortable leaving our 4 legged loved ones in her hands!! She provides lots of pictures and a nice recap of her visit!! So happy we found her and our pups love her!”

About: What sets me apart is my pawsitive approach to pet care and my deep understanding of animal behavior, thanks to both hands-on experience and professional training. I’m a proud graduate of the Dog Grooming School of Pennsylvania, which not only sharpened my grooming skills but also taught me how to read canine body language, manage different temperaments, and create a calm, safe environment for pets of all ages. I specialize in puppy basics—like crate training, potty routines, and leash manners—as well as senior pet care, including medication reminders, slow strolls, and plenty of comfort-focused attention. I bring a lot of patience, love, and structure to every visit, ensuring your pet feels secure and happy while you’re away. With me, your pet will always be surrounded by Pawsitive energy, gentle care, and a true love for animals. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work from home and manage grooming clients on the side. This gives me plenty of flexibility and extra time to play, snuggle, and care for your fur babies throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I’m able to give them the attention they deserve while you’re away. Your pet becomes part of my day, not just part of my schedule. When caring for pets in my home, they become part of the pack! I have very friendly, playful pups who love making new friends, and we have about 1 acre of fully fenced-in yard for safe exploring and zoomies. There are doggie pools, toys, and lots of fun enrichment activities to keep your fur baby happy, active, and entertained. Inside, pets enjoy a cozy, stress-free environment with plenty of love and attention. I treat every pet like my own—whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or nap time, they’ll always feel safe and right at home. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I follow your routine closely to keep things familiar and comfortable for them. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels happy, secure, and loved, no matter where they are!
“Kasey is great!!!!! She’s always available and willing to stop in or house sit. My dog can be picky with strangers but Kasey is so good with her and my dog loves her! She’s always very responsible and respectful while staying at my house and sends me daily updates which I greatly appreciate! I trust her and feel comfortable knowing my pets are well cared for while I’m away. Highly recommend!!”

“Very nice family. They provided the highest level of attention to my pet. They were versatile and adapted their schedule to accommodate our Stella. Stella loved going to stay with them.”

About: I’m David, a dedicated Pet Pawtrait Photographer 🐾📸 and the owner of Charlie’s Pet Pawtraits & Boutique in the Lehigh Valley, PA. Caring for dogs isn’t just a job for me—it’s a heartfelt passion inspired by my beloved pup Charlie, who was with me for over 11 wonderful years. Losing him was tough, but it left me with an abundance of love 💙 I’m eager to share with other dogs through both personalized care and capturing their spirit through photography. I offer a boutique, home-like dog care environment 🏡 where I never take in more than 1–3 dogs at a time, ensuring your dog receives plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime in our spacious indoor gallery, and adventures on the nearby D&L Trail as well as numerous local parks 🚶🌳🐕. Your dog’s comfort, happiness, and peace of mind are my top priorities—I treat every pup as if they were my own family. I’m also a proud dad to a mature 9-year-old who lovingly helps me care for dogs, adding to the warm and nurturing atmosphere 👧❤️.

This way, you get to see just how happy and comfortable your pup is during their time with us! In addition to care, I offer pet portrait sessions either in my studio or at your favorite location—and many pet owners enjoy choosing one of our recommended local spots near the studio for a special outing and photoshoot 🎞️🐶.

Whether it’s a weekday or weekend, I prioritize making sure every pup in my care feels loved and well attended to 💙. My 9-year-old daughter, who is mature and gentle 👧❤️, is often excited to help out and meet new furry friends, adding to the loving, family-like environment. Pet care is truly integrated into our daily life and brings so much joy to both of us 😊. This balance allows me to provide personalized attention, plenty of playtime 🐕🎾, and peaceful rest moments for every dog, while also continuing to grow my photography passion and business. Your pets will be treated with the same love and care I gave my own beloved pup 🐕❤️—a love that was abundant and unconditional. I create a safe, nurturing environment 🏡 where every dog feels comfortable, valued, and truly at home. I look forward to meeting your furry family member and providing them with attentive, compassionate care that puts their well-being first 🐾😊.
“Lori is the sweetest person I have ever met!! She was extremely kind to not only me but my dog as well. She went above and beyond and was incredibly flexible and understanding.

My pup tends to be pretty anxious, but they handled him with so much care and patience-it really gave me peace of mind. I truly appreciate the attention and effort they put into making him comfortable. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care.”

“Pamela is an incredibly kind person who took such great care of my dog. I was genuinely amazed when I went to pick him up—he seemed like he wanted to stay with her, as if they’d known each other for years. It was such a profound and touching moment. I’m really grateful to have met Pamela, and I feel so at ease knowing I can trust her with my pup.”

About: Hi, I’m Michelle! I bring over 50 years of hands-on experience working with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. As a former veterinary technician, I’m comfortable with everything from giving medications to caring for senior pets and puppies who need extra attention. I know how to spot signs of stress, discomfort, or illness early, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my family. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, training reinforcement, or simply making sure your furry friend feels safe and loved, I go the extra mile to keep tails wagging and owners at ease. Caring for animals has always been part of my daily routine — it’s second nature to me! I work full-time, but my evenings (after 5pm), Tuesdays, and weekends are dedicated to spending quality time with pets. At home, I share my life with two sweet cats of my own, so there’s never a day that doesn’t involve a little extra love, play, or purring. I also volunteer regularly at my local cat sanctuary, so even when I’m not with Rover pets, I’m surrounded by whiskers, paws, and wagging tails. Pet care isn’t just something I do — it’s truly who I am. I specialize in caring for pets right where they’re most comfortable — in their home! This means your pets get to stick to their normal routine, sleep in their favorite spots, and enjoy all the comforts they’re used to.

I understand the importance of trust when caring for someone’s beloved animal, and I always aim to provide dependable, gentle, stress-free care. 🐾
About: I (Eren) have been a veterinary technician since 2023, working in a variety of settings including a clinic, shelter, and university research hospital caring for special-needs dogs. Through this experience, I’m comfortable with medical care, senior pets, administering medications, recognizing early signs of illness, and handling animals with unique behavioral needs. I’ve also had animals my entire life, from cats and dogs to exotics, so I understand how different every species (and every personality!) can be. I’m patient, gentle, and confident with shy or anxious animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My partner Luca is also part of our Rover profile and shares this same passion for animal care. We have multiple pets together and work as a team to provide attentive, reliable care. Luca previously worked at the same clinic I’m at as a receptionist and veterinary assistant, and now works in a science lab where he also helps care for lab animals. His experience makes him calm, capable, and very comfortable handling a wide range of animals. What sets us apart is that we combine professional veterinary experience with genuine, everyday love for animals. Between the two of us, your pets will always have attentive, knowledgeable, and compassionate care. We currently have cats, ferrets, mice and 1 bearded dragon of our own, and we hold ourselves to the same high standard of care that we would want for them. Pet care fits naturally into our weekly routine because animals have always been a huge part of our lives. I work full-time, but I schedule my Rover services around my work hours so that every visit gets my full attention. I’m typically available before or after work for drop-ins, walks, and evening check-ins, and I always communicate clearly about my availability. My partner Luca helps provide additional flexibility. He is a full-time student and works part-time in a lab, with a schedule that tends to stay consistent for longer periods. Because our schedules often complement each other, one of us is usually available when the other is not. This allows us to offer more consistent and reliable care throughout the day. Even with busy schedules, caring for animals is something we both genuinely enjoy and make time for, and we never take on more than we can fully commit to. We primarily care for pets in our clients’ homes, where they feel safest and most comfortable. As a veterinary technician, safety is always my first priority. We follow your pet’s normal routines closely, including feeding, medications, walks, and playtime, while also keeping an eye out for any early signs of stress or illness. We’re respectful of your home, trustworthy with your space, and committed to creating a calm, clean environment for your pets while you’re away. We provide regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how your pet is doing.
“We had Angela walk our two huskies while we were on vacation. Angela was great with them and took them on adventures to parks and trails! She was great to work with and we’d definitely use her again for walks or boarding. Thanks again Angela!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life, pet sit for my friend and neighbors, and have a ton of experience in this field. I won't get mad about pet behavior or be unkind. I'm as excited to be there as they will be! I am a college student so on my free days from learning I can spend my time doing stuff I love and helping you with your pets. I understand boundaries and the trust you would be giving me to take care of them in your home or even walk them. It's a lot of trust but I have experience and know where I stand in my work, I offer a no judgement service.
About: I've been dog sitting since I was 12 years old and have been around dogs my entire life. While I've never owned my own dog, I initially watched my cousin's dogs when they were out of town, but eventually started watching dogs for family friends and within the last 10 years watched my friend's dogs when they've been out of town. Most dogs I would take on walks or let them out to run around in the yard if it's fenced in (if the area isn't great for walking). I will always take care of your dog like it's my own. I work full time Monday thru Friday 8am-5pm so would be available after 5pm or on the weekends if I'm not travelling. I'm originally from Pittsburgh PA and still go back home on some weekends or will visit NYC for a day to visit friends or family. In my clients home I would either take their dogs on a walk around the block (if the area is decent enough) or can let the dogs out in the yard if it's fenced in. I'm very careful when walking dogs and always remember to pick up after them.
About: I've been a dog lover my entire life and have always had dogs as part of my family. The only reason I don't currently have one of my own is because my landlord doesn't allow pets. Caring for animals, especially dogs, is something I truly enjoy, and I have experience with both dog walking and pet sitting. As a full-time professional who works from home most of the time, I have a flexible schedule and can provide dependable, attentive care for your pet throughout the day. My career has taught me the importance of responsibility, communication, and reliability which are qualities I bring to every pet-sitting and dog-walking opportunity. I'm often the go-to person among my friends when they need someone to watch their dogs, and I genuinely love spending time with animals. Whether it's taking your dog for a walk, providing companionship while you're away, or helping with other pet care needs, I'm happy to help. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. My passion for animals, combined with my professionalism, dependability, and flexible availability, sets me apart. Thank you for taking the time to visit my profile. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I love making time for animals. Three days a week I work from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, playtime, and drop-in visits throughout the day. On the days I’m not home, I’m still available for morning, evening, and weekend care. I enjoy building my schedule around pet care—it’s something I truly look forward to! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine consistent and their space respected. I’ve stayed in many people’s homes without any issues, always leaving things just as I found them. I focus on making pets feel comfortable and secure—whether that means following feeding schedules, giving walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply providing company. My goal is to treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
About: My name is Cassy and I’ve been recommended for dog/cat sitting. I’m excellent with instructions, and have a warm heart for furry friends. Pets are the heart of the home! Medication administration is a important process that I take very seriously. I’m currently working as a Special Education teacher’sand would love to take care of animals in my free time. My work schedule starts at 9:00 am until 3:15 pm Monday through Friday. Let’s communicate our schedules and we’ll make it work for us and your furry friends. Thank you for opening up your home! I will come in and let your pets smell my hand to make a positive association while we have a chat about the best schedule for your fur baby. I will take care of your beloved pet in the comfort of your own home and the sidewalks of your neighborhood. Your best friend will be in good hands with me. We can go through your four legged companion(s) detailed plan together so I can give them the best care possible.
About: What sets me apart is my pawsitive approach to pet care and my deep understanding of animal behavior, thanks to both hands-on experience and professional training. I’m a proud graduate of the Dog Grooming School of Pennsylvania, which not only sharpened my grooming skills but also taught me how to read canine body language, manage different temperaments, and create a calm, safe environment for pets of all ages. I specialize in puppy basics—like crate training, potty routines, and leash manners—as well as senior pet care, including medication reminders, slow strolls, and plenty of comfort-focused attention. I bring a lot of patience, love, and structure to every visit, ensuring your pet feels secure and happy while you’re away. With me, your pet will always be surrounded by Pawsitive energy, gentle care, and a true love for animals. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work from home and manage grooming clients on the side. This gives me plenty of flexibility and extra time to play, snuggle, and care for your fur babies throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I’m able to give them the attention they deserve while you’re away. Your pet becomes part of my day, not just part of my schedule. When caring for pets in my home, they become part of the pack! I have very friendly, playful pups who love making new friends, and we have about 1 acre of fully fenced-in yard for safe exploring and zoomies. There are doggie pools, toys, and lots of fun enrichment activities to keep your fur baby happy, active, and entertained. Inside, pets enjoy a cozy, stress-free environment with plenty of love and attention. I treat every pet like my own—whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or nap time, they’ll always feel safe and right at home. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I follow your routine closely to keep things familiar and comfortable for them. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels happy, secure, and loved, no matter where they are!

Some days I am available all day and other days I have to leave for a few hours but I’m always back home for dinner time or walks around the neighborhood I care for all pets as if they were my own. I appreciate their personalities and quirks. I am excited to add more animals to my pet sitting fam!
About: I have taken care of all different types of animals growing up.I grew up with a household full of dogs, and have gotten the chance to have dogs of my own now. I have watched and did weekend house sitting for friends/family. I have experience with most dog breeds.

I have a two year old 160 pound Great Dane named Atticus and a 45 pound pitbull mix that are my entire world. I have experience with animals with diabetes and special diets. I love the outdoors and taking adventures with fur babies. I love the outdoors regardless of the weather, looking to take so more walks!

“David was amazing! If you’re a nervous cat mommy like me, don’t worry at all. My baby was so well taken care of, and David sent a ton of updates and pictures while I was away which all pet parents love lol. 10/10, and @David I will be seeing you soon!”

“This was the first time that we have used rover to board our dog while on vacation, and we were incredibly pleased with the care provided to him by Johanny. Our dog (Benny) was just diagnosed as being hypothyroid and was dealing with many different associated conditions that required medicines and a lot of extra care. This was why we decided to try Rover rather than just boarding him at a kennel. Johanny was available at late notice and was amazing with Benny. We received pictures each day and she had no trouble administering all the medications. He was healthy when we returned and we are incredibly grateful for the care that she provided. We will DEFINITELY be using her again in the future.”

“Brooke and Jeremy were absolutely fantastic with Joey! They welcomed him for the weekend and kept me completely at ease with their great communication and updates. I can’t thank them enough for taking such wonderful care of him!”

“I have never met a dog sitter as kind, loving, wise, and experienced in providing the very best care for dogs as Yoko. She treats people with the same warmth and kindness as well. Her husband is also a truly wonderful person. They took care of our elderly dog, and when his condition suddenly worsened, they gave him the most attentive and compassionate care without ever sparing their time or effort. From the bottom of our hearts, we are so grateful that we entrusted our beloved dog to Yoko. Yoko and your husband, thank you so very much.”

“Laura was great with our dog Shadow. He has anxiety and she was very patient with him. She kept us up to date on how he was doing. We definitely will be using her as our dog sitter in the future.”

“To sum it up in one word AMAZING! This was my first time Isabella has not been with me since she was 8 weeks old. Maria and her family took wonderful care of her. I got pictures and updates multiple times a day. Maria responded quickly if I had any questions. She also checked with me prior to doing anything we did not discuss at drop off to be sure I was ok with it. Isabella had such a wonderful time I don’t think she wanted to leave lol. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter.”


“Kim watched our two dogs and made our first rover experience simple. She responded to all of our questions quickly and kept us updated daily on how our pups were doing. Would recommend to anyone living in the area!”

“I’m very grateful for the wonderful care Pearl & Michael C. provided. They were professional, kind, and clearly passionate about animals. They kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. My pet was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet sitters. Thank you again for treating my pet like your own!”


About: To me, pet sitting is never just a job; it is a commitment to keeping your best friend safe, happy, and loved. I know how deeply difficult it is to leave your dog behind. That is why my primary goal is to provide a seamless "home away from home" experience where your pet becomes a cherished part of my family. With over six years of dedicated dog care experience and as a proud parent to my own friendly 3.5-year-old dog, I understand canine behavior and companionship deeply. Your pup will instantly have a built-in playmate and a comforting routine. Your pup will never be lonely here, as I am home full-time to provide constant care, attention, and companionship, meaning our guest dogs enjoy round-the-clock supervision and love from dedicated adult. I maintain a reliable, active routine where our dog, Bruno, enjoys a 20 to 30-minutes walk twice every day, and your dog will be happily included in all of our daily strolls. While I do not have a fenced yard, your dog will get plenty of outdoor exercise and socialisation. Inside, I offer an incredibly spacious layout designed for canine comfort. I have a dedicated separate room and a large, finished basement where guest dogs can freely play, run around, and sleep securely. To ensure a safe, healthy, and clean environment for our young toddler, our own dog, and your pup, I ask that all guest dogs be fully potty trained and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Beyond offering a fun environment, I bring peace of mind. I am highly experienced in administering oral medications, so you can rest assured that any specific healthcare routines your dog requires will be handled safely, accurately, and on time. Because we have a toddler, I maintain a very clean, structured, and safe home environment where all interactions between dogs and children are closely supervised. I treat every guest dog like a member of our own family, ensuring they get plenty of affection, exercise, and personalized care!

“Renata took excellent care of Meg, I knew from her profile that our Meg would be happy and loved and she really didn't disappoint. I can honestly say she is now family and I won't leave Meg with anyone else. THANKS RENATA and Thanks Rover for helping us find her”

“We are very happy with the care that George has provided for our English bulldog Blu. He’s been walked and taken care of so well. He was great at communicating l and sending us pictures every single day. Couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker for my dog. Thank you, George.”

“We, like most pet owners I am sure, were very hesitant to leave our crazy dog with a stranger. Unfortunately A family emergency left us no choice. Once we decided to commit we did a meet n greet with Emanuel (Manny). Emanuel’s love for our four legged animals was apparent from the first meet. During the course of our time away we were given updates and photos of our happy dog. We just picked him up and he was well cared for. We are grateful that should the need to board our Wiley we have a contact that we, including Wiley, can trust.”

“Scott loves dog and my dog had a great time with him. What attracted my attention at the beginning was Scott’s long term experience of taking care of dogs and turned a rescued dog into a therapy dog. During meet and greet, Scott was transparent and he told me his life stories particularly with dogs by showing many pictures. He missed his last dog Jack very much. He also patiently learned my dog’s behavior in order to make my dog being less stressful and comfortable during boarding. He was willing to make changes to accommodate my dog’s behavior and he prepared well before I dropped off my dog. He updated me at least once a day with multiple pictures. I could see my dog was happy, playful and tired. When I picked up my dog, Scott reviewed details with me what happened during my dog’s stay. I highly recommend Scott being your dog sitter. Your dog will be in good hands.”

“We messaged Lori last minute for a dog sitter. She had no problem with it all. She sent us pictures of our baby very often. I didn't worry much and this was my first time that someone I didn't know watching him. She treated him like it was just one of her own dogs and loved him just as much. I will be sure to definitely use her again if I need a dog sitter again.”

“Amber kept our pups happy and healthy and really made them part of the family. It was great getting pictures and updates frequently. They have returned home so much happier than they have been when being kennels in the past.”

“Joan was a great sitter for our baby, Nimer. I loved receiving daily updates on how he was doing as well as pictures and videos. We chose the boarding option, and Nimer had the best time at Joan's house, sleeping on her bed, playing in the cat tunnels, and climbing the cat trees. He also got along so well with her ferrets! Her house is free of any harmful products and is a safe space for just about any pet. Nimer will definitely be coming back when we go on our next trip. Highly recommend!”

“Jennifer was so understanding, kind, and compassionate with my anxious senior dog. I used her for an overnight visit and my quickly felt comfortable at her home. I highly recommend her and hope to use her services again!”
