“Kara did a great job taking care of Jasper. It's just like being at home for him and he has a fenced in yard to run around in. Kara is very nice, pleasant and professional to deal with and I would definitely recommend her.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better person to watch our Golden Doodle! From the moment we dropped her off, we knew she was in great hands. Lauren was incredibly attentive, providing regular updates and pictures that put our minds at ease. Our pup came home happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”
“I would definitely recommend Sarah for watching your dog. She took such good care of my Murphy while I was away on an unexpected work trip. Sarah sent lots of pictures and updates. Murphy seemed right at home there on her big comfy couch.”

“Cindy and April hit it off immediately! So kind and attentive. She took her for many walks on the wooded trails behind their house. She sent us pictures of April enjoying her mini vacation. We definitely will use her again!”
“This was our first time booking with Amy. I’m always nervous to leave my dog with new people, but Amy and her husband were very nice and reassuring. Made me feel at ease leaving him with them. She sent me pictures thru out the stay which I loved. He seemed to be pretty happy there and had a good time. He loved the fenced in yard. We would def take our Charlie back there again.”
“Alexis was GREAT when she boarded my dog! She made us feel really comfortable with leaving our pup there over the weekend! She was really accommodating and responsive too! I would definitely bring my dog back to stay with Alexis.”
About: I truly believe that pets are part of the family and am here to treat yours as my own. I am the first person my friends turn to when they need a sitter, and have both hosted dogs in my house and stayed with them in their own. I also enjoy pet visits and walks! I work as a teacher, so most of my availability is on the weekend and during summer months, although I am available for evening visits or walks during the week. I have a large fenced in yard that is great for running and playing and live in a neighborhood ideal for walks. I have a large crate available, if your dog’s routine includes crating. My own golden retriever would love to be friends with and keep your pet company! While I allow pets on my furniture and beds, I will follow the rules established for your pet. Your pet will receive plenty of love and attention!
“I don’t think I could give this an honest review because it’s only a five star review and my experience with 10 star! My boxer is two years old and has spent his entire life by my side since he was six weeks old, I had to go away for a vacation and worried about him not acclimating to a new environment. None of my fears came true, he was very well taken care of, and I would strongly recommend using Brionna! I never went anywhere for long but now I can rest assure that I have a fantastic pet sitter….. more trips may be planned in the future”
“LAUREN AND DOUG ARE THE BEST! It is difficult to be away from my pup for a week, but I know that he is in the greatest care. I get the perfect amount of photos and updates. Whenever he is there, he receives so much love!”

“Where do I begin! Kara is compassionate and loving. There’s no better person to trust with caring for your pet. She will definitely be my go to sitter for Prince moving forward.”
“This was my first time since moving and having my cat alone so I was nervous to hire someone to check in on her. Tai was communicative, caring, friendly and sweet! She closely followed the instructions I left. I am so grateful for the last minute drop-in visit. I will definitely reach out again and would recommend her for anyone’s pet!”
“I couldn't be happier with the care my two kitties received! From the very beginning, she was incredibly kind, reliable, and communicative. She kept me updated with messages and adorable photos every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was obvious that Natalie genuinely cared about my cats and took the time to make sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly appreciated all of the check-ins and the attention she gave them. Coming home to two happy, relaxed kitties was the best feeling! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional pet sitter. I will absolutely be booking with her again. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my babies!”
“Krista and the kids spoil Dennis rotten. I’m not sure he wants to come home! She’s also very flexible with pickup and drop off times as plans evolve. I’ll definitely plan my trips around her availability!!”
“I am a first-time customer with Rover.com. I submitted a request for a petsitter to watch my cats while I was out of state. For six days (including Labor Day weekend), Sarah M. took excellent care of my “Little Ones”. During all ten visits, she went the extra mile and cleaned up the occasional fur balls (yuck🤢) and small-scale disasters my cats made. My cats took a liking to her and that doesn’t usually happen. That means there’s something special about Sarah M. She is thorough, meticulous, kind, considerate, and professional. I’ll gladly ask her to watch my pets again! Thank you, Sarah! You’re a godsend!!😊💯👍🏾”

About: I was raised as a child with pets - fish, cats and of course dogs. Growing up we had 2 Irish Setters a Chihuahua and multiple cats. As an adult I started off with just having multiple cats and then began to have dogs enter my life again. I had a very loving Pit Bull for a short period of time and a few years later I adopted a Boston Terrier who is now 13 years old. In addition to my senior dog, I now also have a 1 ½ year old Boston and 1 senior cat. I never had children so these are my kids and my extended family. I do everything I can to ensure they have a loving home and are well cared for and I will do the same for your four-legged kids :) With a lot of patience I have been able to do a few simple commands with my dogs. I have experience with potty training a puppy and also have extensive experience with senior dogs as my senior is currently half blind, has incontinence issues (at times) and has trouble walking. I currently can be home during the day and am usually home in the evenings and on weekends. When I know im pet sitting i stay home so my focus is on your pet. I spend a lot of time playing, walking and giving love to my pets. I will do the same for yours. I have a large unfenced yard but also have a dog park nearby that i utilize. My pets are on a regualr feeding schedule and I will adhere to any directions or special needs you may have,
“Paul was fantastic! Five stars isn't enough. He was extremely prompt, kind, and thorough with his communication from our initial request through pick-up. He took incredible care of our two boys and treated them like family. They were safe and comfortable. We received regular text and photo updates throughout their stay, and it was wonderful to see how much fun they were having. They even came home with a goodie bag of treats! His compassion and genuine love for animals were evident in every interaction. We can't speak highly enough of Paul and are so grateful for the exceptional care he provided. We'll definitely be using his services again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog sitter.”

She sent me pictures thru out the stay which I loved. He seemed to be pretty happy there and had a good time. He loved the fenced in yard. We would def take our Charlie back there again.”
“Alexis was GREAT when she boarded my dog! She made us feel really comfortable with leaving our pup there over the weekend! She was really accommodating and responsive too! I would definitely bring my dog back to stay with Alexis.”
About: I truly believe that pets are part of the family and am here to treat yours as my own. I am the first person my friends turn to when they need a sitter, and have both hosted dogs in my house and stayed with them in their own. I also enjoy pet visits and walks! I work as a teacher, so most of my availability is on the weekend and during summer months, although I am available for evening visits or walks during the week. I have a large fenced in yard that is great for running and playing and live in a neighborhood ideal for walks. I have a large crate available, if your dog’s routine includes crating. My own golden retriever would love to be friends with and keep your pet company! While I allow pets on my furniture and beds, I will follow the rules established for your pet. Your pet will receive plenty of love and attention!
“I don’t think I could give this an honest review because it’s only a five star review and my experience with 10 star! My boxer is two years old and has spent his entire life by my side since he was six weeks old, I had to go away for a vacation and worried about him not acclimating to a new environment. None of my fears came true, he was very well taken care of, and I would strongly recommend using Brionna! I never went anywhere for long but now I can rest assure that I have a fantastic pet sitter….. more trips may be planned in the future”
“LAUREN AND DOUG ARE THE BEST! It is difficult to be away from my pup for a week, but I know that he is in the greatest care. I get the perfect amount of photos and updates. Whenever he is there, he receives so much love!”

About: Although I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to caring for dogs. I’ve regularly looked after my relatives’ dogs, including a Bulldog and a hound breed. I live in a spacious single-family home with plenty of indoor space where pets can feel safe and comfortable. I provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I understand that every pet has its own routine and personality, and I always strive to make them feel relaxed and at home. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I’m available for boarding and pet care Monday through Friday and have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I enjoy spending time with animals, providing regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, feeding, and companionship. I always follow each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and at home. I live in a spacious single-family home with plenty of room for pets to relax and play indoors. I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment and carefully supervise pets during their stay. Although my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs are always kept safely on a leash. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, provide regular updates with photos, and treat them like part of my family.
