“Mary was so great with our 4 babies! We had two little kittens and two dogs and she was so kind and went above and beyond to make them comfortable. We will definitely use her again 😊”
“Tracey's home was the perfect setup for our young pup, she was careful to keep him comfortable around the other animals and closely watched his interactions (he hasn't been socialized yet and she gave us some helpful tips!). She kept us updated on his feeding habits and play times as well. Her and her family were super welcoming. We will definitely use her again.”
“Whitley took great care of our dog and sent updates during her time there. Drop off and pick up were easy and she made my dog feel comfortable. Would highly recommend.”
“Derek and Kristina are amazing dog sitters! From our initial communication to picking up my dog, the experience was easy and comfortable. I have an elderly dog who is my baby and I never worried while he was in their care. Super sweet people, beautiful home, and the love for dogs really shines through.”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our dogs, Kona, Nellie, and Harvey, with this family. They sent frequent photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was easy to tell our dogs were having fun playing with the other dogs and receiving lots of love and affection. We also really appreciated their communication and transparency. When one of our dogs had a negative interaction with another dog, they informed us immediately and kept us updated. We felt that our dogs were genuinely cared for like part of the family. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy place for their pets.”
“The pups stayed there one night but it was a very good experience. Very kind people , nice home, and a great environment. Communicate every well and send plenty of pictures. The dogs were exhausted when they came back home which was great for them. I will be using them more often.”
“Carly was great! She was accepting of a last minute request and catered to the dogs’ needs. Whether if they were docile, lapdogs or forever active and wants to play, she would do it all. The dogs left as happy as ever!”
“Our Stormy Girl had a great stay with Melissa. We will definitely ask Melissa to keep her again when needed. Her family was all very sweet to Stormy (& us) she sent Photos and updates and even took extra care of Stormy during the NYE fireworks which she hates. Definitely Recommend!”
“Damon and Danyelle were very kind and flexible while taking care of our dogs! They cleaned up after and took care of our pup with a sensitive stomach. Would definitely recommend using them if you’re looking for someone trustworthy to take care of your pets.👍”
“We booked Maria for a 10-day trip and couldn’t be happier with the care she provided our pup! She went above and beyond—sending daily photos and videos that truly put our minds at ease while we were away. It was clear our dog was not just being looked after, but was genuinely loved and spoiled the entire time. Her communication was consistent. We came home to a happy, healthy dog who clearly adored her time with Maria. Highly recommend and will absolutely book again!”
“As a first time Rover customer, I was so nervous about leaving Conor with anyone other than the 3 people who have ever watched any of my dogs. Lisa was calm and very kind, with her 4 years of Rover experience and countless dogs that have stayed at her home being of comfort to me. I received regular updates of photos so I knew he was quite content at her home. She was also very flexible on my quick turnaround request, and slightly unpredictable return schedule, which was a huge weight off my shoulders. Conor said he had a great time with Lisa and even got to meet her boyfriend and also a puppy during his stay! A bonus is that Lisa makes and uses her own candles, which means Conor came back smelling really good.”
“Thank you so much for caring for Bentley while i was away. I knew he was in good hands the moment we met. The daily updates helped me as well, i loved knowing about his day. Ariel n her family were so sweet & welcoming!!”
“Fantastic!! I received pictures and updates daily and she was able to help me out when my flight was delayed. I even received an adorable Christmas picture magnet of my fur baby. Thank you again!”
“We had the best experience with Rachel! I could tell that our dog was looked after and loved by her. I would definitely use her again and will be recommending her to everyone I know. Thank you Rachel!”
“Katlyn was amazing!!! She sent tons of pictures and kept me updated on how he was doing. I was able to have peace of mind on my vacay. 100000% recommend Katlyn for your dogs stay and she definitely has my business in the future.”
“Amazing, amazing, amazing. She was so sweet and caring to my puppy and cat. Sent me pics and updates. Can't say enough good things about her. Am definitely going to use her whenever I go on vacation again!”
“Our two girls had a wonderful time with Candie and her dog! She was so welcoming and opened her home to them, and they quickly made themselves right at home. In every photo and video, they looked like they were having a blast—playing, running around, and resting comfortably. We'll definitely be using Candie again for any future trips!”
“Absolutely wonderful! Yulia took great care of our 14 year old, Milly. We were not worried once as she updated us frequently with pictures daily, and answered any questions we had. She is a very sweet caretaker who will love your doggy like her own! ❤️”

About: I have always had pets in my life since I was at a very young age. I recently moved to Princeton with my family and we are animal lovers all the way! I currently work from home, I and my wife also have a dog Luka who is 3 y/o and would love some company to play and exercise. We live on a nice apartment property, located super close to Carrollton Blue and Orange trails and outdoor. We always clean up and respect our four-legged friends. I have a very flexible job, that allows me to take many breaks during the day, allowing me to look after the doggies. I usually have smooth music for Luka while I'm on a call, but 80% of the time we just hang out until the next break to go out and walk around. On weekends we like going to the outdoors to get that extra excersice when needed. I take care with the basics needs first, always filtered water and safe to use toys, I like keeping them entertained with toys or a comfy sofa to lay down. I like taking them on walks nearby, as our apartment isn't fenced I like to keep him on a leash until we go to a park where they can run a little and stretch those legs.

About: I’ve been pet-sitting since I was in high school, now going into year 7 of pet sitting. My unwavering dedication to personalized care for each pet is what I always focus on. I understand that each pet is unique, with its own needs and quirks, and I try and go the extra mile to tailor my services to meet those individual requirements I currently work hybrid as a software engineer but I make sure you pet’s needs are my first priority. From waking up early to give them attention & exercise, sharing my lunch break with your furry friend to take a walk and have a bathroom break, to helping me take breaks during my work hours for us to both stretch and go for a walk. Having constant communication with the owner & providing regular updates through messages, photos, or videos. Being prepared for any emergency by having a plan and knowing I need to bring your furry friend if an emergency may happen. Lastly, ensuring the safety within the home by removing anything that may be hazardous and keeping your furry friend in their designated area when needed to avoid any mishaps.
About: I have cared for fur babies since I was a baby myself. I have grown up with all different kinds of animals but our dogs have had the most special place in our hearts. I admire their obedience and loyalty and it’s something I feel we almost don’t deserve. I will take good care of anyone’s dog and treat them as my own. I would love to help you out and I have trusted services! I currently am a full time teacher so can care for dogs based on a 8-5 work schedule. I can also break away for 30 minutes for lunch. My weekends are free so I can do stays. I am willing to dog sit over nights will just have to leave for work. My summer are open other than shifts here and there at my serving job. My home consists of 2 dogs and 2 cats that get non-stop love, exercise, and treats! Your dogs will receive care and attention like mine do!!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Merit
“Simba had a wonderful day with Mary! He came home relaxed, happy, and without any anxiety. From the updates we received, it looked like he had plenty of playtime and fun throughout the day. He clearly enjoyed his time and came back tired in the best way. We’re very thankful for the great care he received. Highly recommend Mary as a sitter!”
“She is absolutely amazing and she takes such good care of my animals and she communicates and keeps me updated so well I really think my animal is progressing and being so wonderfully handled”
About: Dog loving family with many years of experience owning dogs. We have one fur baby, 5 year old beagle mix named Chip. Chip is 26lb bundle of love and playfulness and gets along well with large or small breeds. We have a large fenced yard and I am home full time. I can offer daycare and overnight boarding. I will care for your fur baby as I expect mine to be, like a member of our family. I prefer dogs that are crate trained in case I need to run errands and prefer not to let them run free inside with no one home. We get lots of exercise and cuddle time. Tell me what will make your pup happy and I will do my best to accommodate. I look forward to meeting you soon! I work from home so my time away from your pup will be minimal. We take lots of outside breaks, but, we keep them inside to relax and stay comfortable during harsh weather. I have a large fenced yard and two dogs that play gently with other dogs. I watch them at all times even when outside. They are never left unattended except for short errands and they will be crated during my absence. I have lots of experience with senior dogs and can accommodate their special needs including injected meds. Mini photo shoot is also included with your pet’s stay! I am a stay at home mom so I am almost always at home. We get up early and serve breakfast, have potty and play time, or your pup can relax if that is what they prefer. I have a spacious fenced in back yard for running and playing and my home is pet friendly. Your baby will feel right at home and will be loved and cared for just like my own.
“They take such good care of my dogs. My girl is very sensitive so I can always tell if someone scares her. Both my dogs are always bouncing off the walls when I come to pick them up. 🥰”
“Damon and Danyale were amazing when I needed a last minute day sitter when our original sitter was not available. I’ve been needed to find a back up one close to home and definitely will be using again when needed. Damon sent many photos throughout the 2 days he was there. Highly recommend.”
About: I have had pets my entire life whether I had a cat or a dog I always had one. My dad owns a dog breeding business that for a short period my husband and I helped at before moving. So we are very familiar with dogs and pet care. I am a stay at home mom who has a part time at home job. My husband also works part of the time at home. I am home most of the day and if I leave I usually only ever leave for an hour or two at a time. I have a fenced in yard for your pup to roam outside safely. We walk out pup twice a day. He is a old small shih tzu dog that can offer your pup company but would also likely leave your pup be because he sleeps all day. My kids love playing with pups and playing fetch and giving great pets.

About: Hello! My name is Morgan, and animals are my one true passion in life. I currently own three cats, a dog, and a rabbit. I have six years of experience in veterinary care at a vet hospital in Dallas, schooling to be a certified veterinary technician, as well as two years of grooming experience. I can handle any and all challenges your dog throws at me, whether that be endless amounts of energy, the need for excessive love, aggression towards new people, or an accident or injury. I have experience and am more than willing to administer any medications or do health maintenance like monitoring blood sugar levels for my diabetic fur-babies. I can do it all and I will definitely love your pet just like I love my own! I am very flexible and willing to work with you and your pet's needs. I am in-between jobs at the moment, so I have full availability and willingness to be flexible with my schedule. I favor a fear-free approach to all pet services I offer. I have been trained in free free grooming and restraint, and have picked up many tricks in my time working at a veterinarians office.
“Amanda is absolutely amazing! She has such a warm and friendly personality and showered my fur babies with so much affection. Amanda is very knowledgeable and is very professional in her approach. When my dogs are in her care, I don't have a worry at all because I know they are in good hands.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I give to every pet. Since I work from home, I’m able to be very present and flexible, which means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and can stick to their usual routine. I’m patient and attentive with all dogs, including puppies who need consistency and basic reinforcement, as well as senior dogs who may need a slower pace, extra care, or medication reminders. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality so they feel comfortable, safe, and happy. I also make sure to keep mom or dad updated with messages and photos, so you always know how your pet is doing. :) Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to plan my day around walks, visits, feeding times, and playtime without feeling rushed. This flexibility allows me to accommodate different schedules, including morning, midday, and evening visits. I can also provide consistent attention throughout the day, which is especially helpful for pets that need more interaction, supervision, or companionship. When caring for pets, I always try to follow their usual routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. In a client’s home, I respect the space and make sure your pet feels secure in their familiar environment while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. If caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment where they can relax and feel at home. I supervise them closely, ensure they get enough activity and attention, and adjust care based on their energy level and needs. My goal is always to make your baby feel loved and cared for, just like they would with their family.
“Namita was an awesome host for my fur babies. Provided plenty of picture updates every few hrs. Namita and her husband were very cooperative during the whole process. My dogs came home very happy. I didn't have to worry abt them even for a minute. I would surely recommend Namita to other pet parents. I surely would like to request Namita for future bookings. Thank you Namita.”
About: I’ve been a devoted dog owner for my entire life, and caring for these incredible beings is more than just a job—it's my passion. Friends and family trust me wholeheartedly to love and nurture their furry loved ones when they’re away, and I pour my heart into every moment. Whether tending to lively puppies full of energy or comforting wise, elderly pets, my goal is simple: to keep those tails wagging with happiness and ensure each pet feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, so I get to spend plenty of time with pets each day. I usually don’t have to leave them alone for long periods, which is great! I’ve got a fenced-in yard and three super friendly dogs who just love meeting other pups! We enjoy taking neighborhood walks, playing fetch, and having fun tug-of-war matches right in the backyard.
About: Hello! My name is Aly and I have a long history of working with animals. From managing pet stores, to farm work, and offering in-home pet care, I’ve done a little bit of everything. My main focus is to go above and beyond so both pets and their parents feel comfortable while they’re apart. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping to a familiar routine, I do my absolute best to ensure I provide loving, dependable care with updates so you can truly relax. We require all dogs visiting to be potty trained, and comfortable around cats. My schedule is currently based around my WFH schedule so dogs must be comfortable being quiet for a few hours during the day. I am still able to offer potty breaks every 4-5 hours. Your pets will always be cared for in the safety and comfort of their home or mine, where they feel most relaxed and secure. I follow routines closely, keep spaces clean, and make sure they have everything they need; from fresh food and water to a cozy spot to rest. I’m attentive to your pets behavior and surroundings, and I’ll always reach out if I notice anything unusual. My goal is to make sure everyone is happy, healthy, and stress‑free until you return.
About: Hi! I’m a dependable and caring animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with pets. While I don’t currently have any animals of my own, I grew up with dogs and have plenty of experience helping care for my friends’ dogs whenever they’re out of town. Being around animals genuinely brings me joy, and I love making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of space for playtime, exercise, and fresh air. Whether your dog loves to run around, relax, or just enjoy companionship, I’ll make sure they get lots of attention and care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat them like family while they’re with me. I currently work from home which allows me to have plenty of time to care for your pups. I’m available any time, any day of the week. I provide a safe, calm, and welcoming environment for pets in my home. I have a fully fenced backyard with plenty of space for dogs to play, exercise, and explore safely. Pets will receive lots of attention, supervision, playtime, and affection throughout their stay. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I do my best to help them feel comfortable, relaxed, and at home while their owners are away. I also make sure to follow feeding schedules, potty routines, and any care instructions provided.
About: Hello my name is Alex and I live with my fiancé Elijah! Our love for animals is out of this world, especially for dogs. We will love your dog as much as you do (maybe even more). Whatever your dog needs we are here for! I have had dogs all my life growing up. Throughout my life I have had 3 Boxers (plus a litter of puppies) a Husky, and 2 Shih Tzu’s and have been pet sitting for 10+ years. We do not have any pets of our own so we can provide one on one care with yours! We love all types of dogs big or small short hair or long hair we don’t care! We thank you for considering us to watch your fur baby! I will be home all day to provide care throughout the entire stay. I can accommodate any schedule given to me with no problem! We want you to feel comfortable knowing your dog is in very attentive and loving hands! We live in a small two story home with a backyard. We spend most of our time downstairs in the living room/ kitchen, but the bedrooms are upstairs so that is where we sleep. We always keep the dogs leashed when taking them outside for walks and are always hyper vigilant of other dogs that may be around us, since most of the dogs we board tend to be reactive. Even if not, we like to play it safe around other dogs / people!

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Merit
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. My pets are my children so I love them fiercely. I have worked with and volunteered with animals for the last 15 years. I’ve spent time with pets in a clinic environment as a vet tech, a shelter environment as a kennel tech and dog walker, and a rescue environment as a volunteer. My volunteer time has included transporting pets, walking dogs, helping mamas who just had puppies, and loving on new puppies too! I have flexibility and freedom with my schedule. I can do drop ins, stay and visit with your pet for a bit, and do feedings or give meds if need be. Because my own dogs can be knuckleheads, I can take care of your pets in your home. It might help make their time away from you easier for them anyhow. I can take them for walks, play with them in your yard, take them for car rides, and just hang out with them. My goal would be to make your pets as happy and comfortable as possible. When they’re happy, you’re happy…and then you can enjoy your time away.
“This was my first time using Rover so I didn't know what to expect. Booking was simple with Mary. She is very responsive and flexible. She came by before my travel for a meet and greet with my dog. He liked her and seemed very comfortable. During my trip there was great communication and pictures which showed my dog being very happy to spend time with her. She's a great choice if you're looking for reliability!”
“Sienna is the best. She is always on-time and even went out of her way to suggest a better time of day to align with better weather so my dog River would be more comfortable. River looks forward to seeing her again.”
About: I hqve always pet sit for a long time now off of social mediq only for locals, i have experience dog walking, doing drop in visits, i can do it all working around my availability! I am currently in nursing school and work around my school schedule. I am open for the most part even though my schedule changed a lot. I love pets, i treat them as my own since I know they are already missing their owners while they are away. I follow instructions as provided and give them lots of love!
About: Hi! I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, whether it’s family, friends, or my own pups, I’ve always been the one they trust. Dogs are more than pets to me, they’re family, and being around them brings me true joy. I’m reliable, loving, and treat every dog like my own. I’d love to help care for your furry friend! I work full-time from home, which makes it easy for me to provide walks and care throughout the day. I'm available after 5 PM on weekdays, and I'm fully available on Saturdays and Sundays. Your pup will be in caring hands with a flexible and attentive sitter! I offer dog walking, drop-in visits during my available times, and occasional dog sitting in your home. I love spending time playing, feeding, and making sure your pup feels safe and happy while you're away.
About: Small-town stay-at-home mom with a lifelong love for animals. I grew up caring for pets and currently we have 2 rescue pit bulls and 2 rescue cats. I’ve also fostered animals, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities and needs. I’ll care for your pets like they’re my own! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My kids are in school from 8–3, so after I care for my own animals in the morning, I’m available throughout the day for walks, check-ins, and visits. I already care for a full household of pets, so adding in Rover visits fits in smoothly with my schedule and daily animal care routine. In my home, our pets are treated like family and live indoors with us. They have access to a fenced yard and go outside as they please, along with regular walks and plenty of outdoor playtime when the weather is nice. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible to keep pets comfortable and stress-free. I make sure they are fed on schedule, given fresh water, walked or let out as needed, and receive plenty of attention, play, and affection while you’re away.
About: I've had dogs in my life since my infancy and love dogs. I don't have a favorite breed since I think all dogs are special in their own right but I'm a big fan of chihuahuas and bulldogs. I am a freelance artist so I have plenty of time to devote to animal care. I am able to bring my setup for overnight stays so my schedule won't be impacted during pet care. I have a shared two bedroom apartment that is surrounded by plenty of grassy walking areas and a fenced in dog park, so if your pets stay with me, we'll have lots to do. I also don't mind traveling to or staying overnight at a client's house as I have my own vehicle and no other outside obligations.
About: I am loving and dedicated to each animal in my care. They're upmost safety and happiness is important for me! From puppies to seniors 🩷 I am currently working part-time! Including pet care into my day to day makes me the happiest. I am very excited to discover this app! I strictly stick to instructions for pet care. Pet safety and their happiness is at the top of my list! Understanding each pet is different and needs mary vary pet to pet is just as important to me as well!
About: I’ve had dogs all my life. I have been dog sitting when I could. I retired from teaching after 29 years so now I have more time available to take care of more dogs. I am retired so I am home most days. We have a large fenced yard so dogs are safe. Your pup will get lots of one on one time and snuggles. I have a fenced clean yard. My dogs are very friendly but also have areas for quiet time if that is needed. If you prefer to stay at your house that is fine too. Retired teacher so my days are pretty open.
About: Animals have always been a central part of my life, and caring for them is truly a passion rather than just a service I provide. I have extensive hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments, as well as birds, goats, chickens, pigs, and some horses. I’m comfortable with daily care routines, administering medications, recognizing changes in behavior, and providing patient, attentive support—especially for senior animals or those needing extra care. I believe animals communicate in their own way, and I take the time to understand their needs, personalities, and comfort levels so they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s energetic playtime, quiet companionship, or farm-style care, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I am looking to make this my full time job/ passion. I love animals and believe they are part of our families and deserve to live their best lives while they are with us. I have a 8 foot fenced yard, our dogs are up to date on all vaccines and believe all animals should be. I believe when walking dogs they should always be on a leash, for their safety and the walkers.
“I had never hired a dog walker until I met Joshna and her family. Before our 1st scheduled walk they came by for a quick meet and greet which was very nice and really took the time to get to know our fur baby. I now book them on a regular basis and I can’t express enough how great they are!! I’d definitely recommend them to friends and fam!”
About: With 5+ years of hands-on animal care, lifelong pet ownership, agriculture school training, barn management experience, and extensive research. I bring unmatched dedication, leadership, and a deep understanding of animals that truly sets me apart. I go to college in NH and have a decently open schedule. I am free to walk, watch, stay with your lovely pets any day and any time. I currently have 3 dogs that I treat as my kiddos by walking, snuggling, and taking care of them daily. I enjoy fur babies more than humans.
About: We enjoy being the first choice for most all of our family and friends when it comes to their pets needs! We like to spend extra time with the animals while their pawrents are away and even enjoy bringing some special homemade treats if allowed! We are a firefighter and homeschool family, so our schedule is extremely flexible. We enjoy spending time with any and all animals. I also have a passion for baking, so bringing an extra homemade treat is allowed is something special too! We have one lab girl who is our four legged princess. As the only other girl in a house of boys, she is 100% spoiled rotten and we wouldn't have it any other way.
About: I’ve taken care of animals for my whole life. Ages 5-17 i had a dog and i worked for a pet sitting company after and during college for 2 years. I now also own a dog and two cats! I can pet sit after i get off from my job Monday-Friday 7pm- 11pm & Saturday and Sunday i am available anytime and even holidays! Depending on what the care owner needs i will take care of all necessary needs, I’ve even given medication to different animals before! I also will make sure they get all the love!
“Brittany is the best. She is always on Time and always sends photos of our Pepper during her walks! The "happy pup face" after her walk is what tells me how much fun she had. She loves walking with Brittany. I recommend her highly!”
About: Hello! My name is Jalyn, I am preparing to enter my first year in college to earn a degree in Sonography. I have always been an animal lover since young. I have took various vet classes, ranging from small animal management to equestrian sciences. I also have numerous hours volunteering at different shelters! I have dog sat numerous times beforehand as well, mainly for family. I absolutely adore any animal, small or big! I am also aiming to open my own grooming salon in the future!

I’m not there just to watch or walk your beloved pet, but instead get to know your animals needs and desires! I am open to any task needed, I will always respect and follow any rules provided! I look forward to meeting your furry friend! 🐾 I’m currently working part-time as well as doing online school which is very flexible. I’m available throughout the week in the AM, PM varies as well as weekends, but for the most part I’m pretty open on availability! As for caring for your pet, I’m always very attentive with furry friends and personalize my care for them. Whether it be a walk, an overnight stay, or just a check up, I will always go the extra mile to make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and happy.
About: Hi! 🥰 My name is Rachael! I am a very energetic, patient, and creative person who lives to love and be around animals. Dogs are my favorite animal! I have cared for animals for 13 years. I’ve grown up around many other animals as well and cared for them. Such as cats, fish, and some reptiles. I do offer to bathe your babies if needed. With me, your children will receive appropriate care. Personally, I'm an organizer, planner, and multitasker, and always just a phone call away, face time is also available so minimum supervision is required. With all my skills and experience, I'm able to provide a supervised, safe, fun, and stable environment for your sweet babies!! I look forward to hearing from your families soon! 🐶🥰 I’m currently enrolled at James Madison High School. I do have a lot of free time right now until I reach my money savings goal to continue school. I’m not providing care for animals in my home right away but will provide care in my home as soon as possible for both cats & dogs.

“Mary was so great with our 4 babies! We had two little kittens and two dogs and she was so kind and went above and beyond to make them comfortable. We will definitely use her again 😊”
“Tracey's home was the perfect setup for our young pup, she was careful to keep him comfortable around the other animals and closely watched his interactions (he hasn't been socialized yet and she gave us some helpful tips!). She kept us updated on his feeding habits and play times as well. Her and her family were super welcoming. We will definitely use her again.”
“Whitley took great care of our dog and sent updates during her time there. Drop off and pick up were easy and she made my dog feel comfortable. Would highly recommend.”
“Derek and Kristina are amazing dog sitters! From our initial communication to picking up my dog, the experience was easy and comfortable. I have an elderly dog who is my baby and I never worried while he was in their care. Super sweet people, beautiful home, and the love for dogs really shines through.”
“We had a wonderful experience boarding our dogs, Kona, Nellie, and Harvey, with this family. They sent frequent photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was easy to tell our dogs were having fun playing with the other dogs and receiving lots of love and affection. We also really appreciated their communication and transparency. When one of our dogs had a negative interaction with another dog, they informed us immediately and kept us updated. We felt that our dogs were genuinely cared for like part of the family. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy place for their pets.”
“The pups stayed there one night but it was a very good experience. Very kind people , nice home, and a great environment. Communicate every well and send plenty of pictures. The dogs were exhausted when they came back home which was great for them. I will be using them more often.”
“Carly was great! She was accepting of a last minute request and catered to the dogs’ needs. Whether if they were docile, lapdogs or forever active and wants to play, she would do it all. The dogs left as happy as ever!”
“Our Stormy Girl had a great stay with Melissa. We will definitely ask Melissa to keep her again when needed. Her family was all very sweet to Stormy (& us) she sent Photos and updates and even took extra care of Stormy during the NYE fireworks which she hates. Definitely Recommend!”
“Damon and Danyelle were very kind and flexible while taking care of our dogs! They cleaned up after and took care of our pup with a sensitive stomach. Would definitely recommend using them if you’re looking for someone trustworthy to take care of your pets.👍”
“Katlyn was amazing!!! She sent tons of pictures and kept me updated on how he was doing. I was able to have peace of mind on my vacay. 100000% recommend Katlyn for your dogs stay and she definitely has my business in the future.”
“Amazing, amazing, amazing. She was so sweet and caring to my puppy and cat. Sent me pics and updates. Can't say enough good things about her. Am definitely going to use her whenever I go on vacation again!”
“Judith was fantastic (again) with Chloe! She’s dependable and takes such good care of her! You don’t have to worry at all when your pet is with Judith. I highly recommend her.”
About: Over the years, I have house sat for numerous friends and family while they were away on vacation or business trips. I genuinely love getting to play and take care of other peoples animals. You can be at ease knowing your fur baby will be happily waiting for you to return home. I also worked at a vet clinic for about two years taking care of small and large animals. Therefore, I am very comfortable with a wide array of animals. I do work a 40 hour per week job as a landscape estimator. Monday, Wednesday, & Friday I work from 7am-4pm. Tuesday & Thursday I work 9am - 5pm. Any time outside of these hours is flexible. I currently live in an apartment with my 50lb Labrador named Gus. This is why I am not offering in house pet care haha. He is definitely spoiled, but is crated during the day while I am at work so he does not eat my furniture. I drive home every day at lunch and let him outside to use the restroom. While I am walking your dogs I would like to also walk my dog. He is super friendly with other dogs and is honestly a big goof ball. If you request for me to take care of your animals in your own home I always care for them as instructed. Being, gentle, friendly, and loving with them is obviously apart of the job, but the specifics for feeding, potty breaks, etc is dependent on the situation.
“Nubia was great! Our pups had a great time at her place over the Christmas holiday. We are new to the area and met with many other sitters on Rover before finally finding Nubia! She was very accommodating and the dogs really loved her. Clean house, secure fencing, and a house of dog lovers! Would definitely recommend Nubia!”
“I was extremely satisfied with Jingyi’s services! They went above and beyond in their care for my dog, sending updates and photos regularly and even bathing her. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a caring and responsible pet sitter. Hope to book them again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Our Luna’s stay with Kayla was amazing! We HIGHLY recommend Kayla and her family for pet sitting! Such great communication (photos, videos and quick to reply) and it was clear when we picked our pup up she had a great time during her stay. We will absolutely be booking with Kayla again!”
“Julie, Natalie, and their family were the best! They kept us updated on Zeus’ time with them and even got him dressed up in bunny ears for the Easter holiday. I felt so at ease with Zeus in their home and will definitely be booking with them again!”
