“Lorraine is delightful! She has a nice space for dogs to socialize, play, and relax. We were in town briefly for an outdoor adventure, and our dog had a great time overnight while we could not be with her.”
“Thank you very much for caring for Oliver! His first boarding experience was great (happy pup = great experience). The communication was great and the pictures/videos helped us feel better too.”
“Marián was incredible with my puppy! Her dogs are so friendly and did so well with her. Marián provided an ample amount of exercise and enrichment for Luna. Her timing was flexible which i appreciated so much. Many updates and pictures were provided which put me at ease. I am already planning on booking her to watch my puppy again for my next vacation.”
“This is the second time we have boarded with Ms. Anna - I cannot say enough praise - she is amazing with our high energy Husky! She sent updates and photos and genuinely loves animals. She is our go-to caregiver :)”
“Had a short notice booking with Megan. She was great to work with, her dogs were so friendly to mine. She provided pictures and updates. Couldn't recommend more. Your dogs are in great hands.”
“Debbie and Phil have watched Zola numerous times and always treat her like their own! I never have to worry about her when she is with them. Their house and yard is an absolute retreat for Zola. Five stars all the way and highly recommend them!”
“Mayra and her husband was so warm welcoming! They let me know where Milo would be playing and hanging out. Which left me at easy leaving my baby boy. As well Mayra loves playing little games with the doggies she sent me a video of my Milo playing the game and doing so well! She shared pictures as well and always communicated with me when i would ask about Milo. Milo came back so happy ❤️ I would definitely book again with Mayra! Thank you so much!”
“I chose Deb as my sitter the first time I used Rover and I will choose her again. If I have to leave him with someone again. She was fantastic with Levi. I much preferred the direct care of someone I can do a meet and greet with, get to know the person that is willing to care of my sweet Levi, like I do. She sent me pictures & up dates each day, they played outside every day, he slept in her bed. We go camping and Levi always goes with, but this time we went to an AirBNB (No dogs aloud) his first time away from us, and he did fine.”
“Our girl Luna was in very good hands here, she felt right at home and was taken very good care of. Thank you so much Michael! We appreciate all you did for our girl while we went on vacation. We would definitely book with you again in the future!!”
“We were anxious to have our dog in an environment with another dog that she has not met, since she can be a little unpredictable. Tristan set up a meet and greet and was confident that our dog would adjust. We are thankful to him for watching her for the weekend when we were in a bind and needed a sitter. We would definitely book again with Tristan if he’d take her!”

Big or small, scaley or fluffy, I love all animals and will give them the respect and care they need. 150lb newfy who wants head pats and to drool on me? Absolutely! 6lb 20 year old cat who wants to yell at me and avoid eye contact? Say less. I've dealt with epileptic dogs, bladder stones in cats, and even beakless chickens. I'm up for any challenge! As someone lucky enough to work from home, I can position my job around your pet schedule. Weather I bring my laptop and snuggle up with your pup for the afternoon, take lunch and take a walk with your pooch, or stop in in the evening after my shift to give your cat head kisses.

Your pets safety and your trust in me are my top priority. As an overbearing cat mom, I know just how important your pets are to your family.
“Deirdre was amazing. We had a fairly last minute booking and she was able to accommodate our 3 dogs of different energy levels, food, medications, etc. One of our dogs can be a little reactionary but not with Deirdre. Wonderful space and a great yard for them to play in. The dogs came back tired and I swear, a little better behaved, but maybe that was the exhaustion of playing. Would definitely book again and is now our first choice going forward.”
“Very happy with the care Seneca received from Karter. She must have had a great time playing with their Shepherd puppy. Seneca is much stronger now after her stay with them. We plan on using Karter M. again in the future. Thanks again Darice”
“Our dog loved Lynnea! Lynnea was so attentive, considerate, and caring toward our baby girl. She can be very anxious and needy when being introduced to new environments. However, coupled with Lynnea’s own dog (who is so playful and cute) and her home being warm welcoming, our dog loved being there. We were updated with pictures throughout her whole stay. She loved all the snuggles and cuddles she was able to receive and was never alone. She came home nice and tired :) Sky looks forward to another visit!!”
“Jo-Ellen is an outstanding Rover host!! She really went above and beyond to make sure Zoom was comfortable given this was only his second rover stay. I'm grateful for the A+ communication and attention given to Zoom. Her place is in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic and lots of grassy lawns. Definitely will be leaving Zoom with Jo-Ellen during future travels!”
“Amber and her family were great. Our little guy was happy and made himself right at home. We enjoyed the consistent pictures, and appreciated Amber's clear and responsive communication. Will definitely use her again!”
“Celestia and Ryan were absolutely great. They accommodated my last-minute trip and boarded my dog Rocky for two nights and three days. They sent me pictures and videos, which ease my worries. Rocky had the best time. I will definitely be using them again. Thank you so much Celestia and Ryan.”
“We were desperate last minute for someone to watch our dog on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We reached out to Lydianis and her husband Alex on Rover. They were very quick to respond and continued with good communication throughout the entire time they had my dog. They took the time, at a very busy time of year, to meet us on the Sunday before at a local park and introduced their beautiful Lab Chase to us. Seeing how well they handled Chase and how understanding they were of Clementine’s intimidation, really eased our minds of my small dog being around a bigger dog and it showed how compassionate these two fun dog loving people are towards their guest dogs and owners. Prior to Clem's stay, they asked all the right questions about how to care for her and what they could do to help with any anxiety, when to feed her how much, etc., We felt very comfortable with them and liked both of them very much! We will definitely be calling again to have them watch our little fur baby!”
“It was a pleasure to work with Brenda. During the meet and greet, it became obvious she is very knowledgeable and caring. She communicated quickly and well throughout the process. This was my first time using a petsitter and I would have no hesitation using Brenda’s services again.”

She was so very sweet to Bella, and I felt confident that Bella would have a great time spending the day with her and her husband. I know she treated Bella as if she was her own and loved her the way I do. I will definitely use Lorraine again and have no reservations in recommending her to others.”
“Our two dogs seemed to be at ease with Megan during a four hour "day care" at her residence. They came home happy, tired and healthy. I think that's a good sign. I met her two dogs and found them to be gentle and well-behaved. Although our dogs were with her for only a four hour stay that day, she still somehow managed to get nice, little walk in for them! At this point, I feel comfortable with Megan and her ability to care for our doggies and would use her service again. She's very professional, cordial and accommodating. She provided quick responses every time I had questions. Thanks!”

I had never left Bowie with anyone other than friends or family but when I left him that day, I could tell he was in good hands. I would definitely use Kathy again to watch him and I would also recommend her to watch anyone else pets too.”

I will certainly reach out to her again and I recommend her to anyone looking for a trusting and professional pet sitter. Thank you for everything, Rosa!!!”

About: I’m a proud dog mom to a Mini Goldendoodle who turns 2 on June 28. She’s the sweetest, friendliest little girl and truly a part of my family. Spending every day with her has taught me so much about the love, patience, and attention that dogs need to feel happy and secure. I’ve always had a soft spot for animals, and I genuinely enjoy being around them. Whether it’s going for walks, playing fetch, sticking to their routine, giving extra cuddles, or just keeping them company, I love making pets feel comfortable and cared for while their families are away. What sets me apart is that I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I know my dog is my baby, and I treat every pet with that same level of love, kindness, and care. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, loved, and right at home with me. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos because I know how reassuring it is to see your furry family member happy and having fun Pet care fits easily into my routine because I already spend my days caring for my own dog. Adding another dog to the mix doesn't feel like work to me, it's something I genuinely enjoy. I'm used to daily walks, feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and all the little things that come with being a dog parent. Your pet's safety and comfort will always be my priority. I understand that every pet is different, and I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and secure. In my home, pets will have a clean, safe environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision. I make sure doors and gates are secure and never leave pets unattended in situations that could put them at risk.
About: Hi there! I’m Alyssa, an animal lover with a passion for giving pets the care and attention they deserve. Whether your dog loves to play fetch, snuggle on the couch, or go for long walks, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and entertained while you're away. I’ve got experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Rest easy knowing your pet is in good hands, I'll treat them like family! I am a teacher who is home for the summer break! Since I am home, I am flexible and can fit to your scheduling needs! At our home, we prioritize safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment for every pet. We have one dog, Obi, and one cat, both of whom are used to having visitors. Obi is always excited to meet new friends and loves playtime, while our cat is more independent and enjoys keeping to herself, but she’s used to having dogs around. When caring for pets in our home, we ensure walks are safe by always leashing our pup, and we use a lead for supervised outdoor play and potty breaks in the backyard. Obi is crated when we leave the house, ensuring he’s safe and secure. He has access to his food bowl throughout the day, allowing him to graze at his own pace. However, we’re happy to accommodate any special feeding routines or requests to ensure your pet feels comfortable and well cared for.

Definitely recommend her for walking, overnight stays, or just someone for your pup to hang with.”

A 3 story house that has tons of room for your fur babies to run around. I have tons cats toys, scratching posts and boards, and towers for the kitties!
About: I’ve taken care of puppies and dogs, for several years, for my parents while they were at work several hours at a time & shown love. I am pretty free, I am self employed so I have plenty of time to play with you fury friends! Even hope to make some new fury friends myself. I only have cats in my current home, but I keep them inside at all times and make sure they are fed and loved, and play time is super important.

“Lorraine is delightful! She has a nice space for dogs to socialize, play, and relax. We were in town briefly for an outdoor adventure, and our dog had a great time overnight while we could not be with her.”
“Thank you very much for caring for Oliver! His first boarding experience was great (happy pup = great experience). The communication was great and the pictures/videos helped us feel better too.”
“Marián was incredible with my puppy! Her dogs are so friendly and did so well with her. Marián provided an ample amount of exercise and enrichment for Luna. Her timing was flexible which i appreciated so much. Many updates and pictures were provided which put me at ease. I am already planning on booking her to watch my puppy again for my next vacation.”
“This is the second time we have boarded with Ms. Anna - I cannot say enough praise - she is amazing with our high energy Husky! She sent updates and photos and genuinely loves animals. She is our go-to caregiver :)”
“Had a short notice booking with Megan. She was great to work with, her dogs were so friendly to mine. She provided pictures and updates. Couldn't recommend more. Your dogs are in great hands.”
“Our girl Luna was in very good hands here, she felt right at home and was taken very good care of. Thank you so much Michael! We appreciate all you did for our girl while we went on vacation. We would definitely book with you again in the future!!”
“We were anxious to have our dog in an environment with another dog that she has not met, since she can be a little unpredictable. Tristan set up a meet and greet and was confident that our dog would adjust. We are thankful to him for watching her for the weekend when we were in a bind and needed a sitter. We would definitely book again with Tristan if he’d take her!”
About: I grew up with cats, dogs, reptiles, and rodents. I lived on a farm for years with cows, chickens, turkeys, and quail! Big or small, scaley or fluffy, I love all animals and will give them the respect and care they need. 150lb newfy who wants head pats and to drool on me? Absolutely! 6lb 20 year old cat who wants to yell at me and avoid eye contact? Say less. I've dealt with epileptic dogs, bladder stones in cats, and even beakless chickens. I'm up for any challenge! As someone lucky enough to work from home, I can position my job around your pet schedule. Weather I bring my laptop and snuggle up with your pup for the afternoon, take lunch and take a walk with your pooch, or stop in in the evening after my shift to give your cat head kisses. I'm flexible and willing to work with you. Whatever your pets need, I'm your gal. I had 6 dogs growing up and like to think I know how to read them. Your pets safety and your trust in me are my top priority. As an overbearing cat mom, I know just how important your pets are to your family.
“Deirdre was amazing. We had a fairly last minute booking and she was able to accommodate our 3 dogs of different energy levels, food, medications, etc. One of our dogs can be a little reactionary but not with Deirdre. Wonderful space and a great yard for them to play in. The dogs came back tired and I swear, a little better behaved, but maybe that was the exhaustion of playing. Would definitely book again and is now our first choice going forward.”
“Very happy with the care Seneca received from Karter. She must have had a great time playing with their Shepherd puppy. Seneca is much stronger now after her stay with them. We plan on using Karter M. again in the future. Thanks again Darice”
“Our dog loved Lynnea! Lynnea was so attentive, considerate, and caring toward our baby girl. She can be very anxious and needy when being introduced to new environments. However, coupled with Lynnea’s own dog (who is so playful and cute) and her home being warm welcoming, our dog loved being there. We were updated with pictures throughout her whole stay. She loved all the snuggles and cuddles she was able to receive and was never alone. She came home nice and tired :) Sky looks forward to another visit!!”
“Jo-Ellen is an outstanding Rover host!! She really went above and beyond to make sure Zoom was comfortable given this was only his second rover stay. I'm grateful for the A+ communication and attention given to Zoom. Her place is in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic and lots of grassy lawns. Definitely will be leaving Zoom with Jo-Ellen during future travels!”
“Amber and her family were great. Our little guy was happy and made himself right at home. We enjoyed the consistent pictures, and appreciated Amber's clear and responsive communication. Will definitely use her again!”
“Celestia and Ryan were absolutely great. They accommodated my last-minute trip and boarded my dog Rocky for two nights and three days. They sent me pictures and videos, which ease my worries. Rocky had the best time. I will definitely be using them again. Thank you so much Celestia and Ryan.”
“We were desperate last minute for someone to watch our dog on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We reached out to Lydianis and her husband Alex on Rover. They were very quick to respond and continued with good communication throughout the entire time they had my dog. They took the time, at a very busy time of year, to meet us on the Sunday before at a local park and introduced their beautiful Lab Chase to us. Seeing how well they handled Chase and how understanding they were of Clementine’s intimidation, really eased our minds of my small dog being around a bigger dog and it showed how compassionate these two fun dog loving people are towards their guest dogs and owners. Prior to Clem's stay, they asked all the right questions about how to care for her and what they could do to help with any anxiety, when to feed her how much, etc., We felt very comfortable with them and liked both of them very much! We will definitely be calling again to have them watch our little fur baby!”
“Cassandra was OUTSTANDING! I cannot recommend her enough. She cared for my pups while I was on vacation and they were so loved! She sent pictures, snuggled them, and was so calm when any issues came up! She is wonderful!”
“Jennifer went above and beyond caring for my dog! She even took the time to read through his full profile to understand his needs and quirks, which meant a lot. I got updates, and my pup came home happy and relaxed. So grateful for the extra care and attention. Highly recommend!”
“Tessie was amazing! She took great care of our dog while we were away for nearly a week. She sent updates and multiple pictures every day. It gave us great peace of mind about leaving our dog for the first time. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her services again in the future. Thanks again Tessie!”
“Daniel and his kids were awesome with Charlie. He was able to meet with some accommodations that were required for the drop off. He took Charlie around and kept us updated throughout the stay. I recommend and will book again.”
