“Outstanding service! My experience with Allison was beyond exceptional. Not only did she take care of my furry family member with the utmost love and attention, but her dedication and professionalism truly stood out. Her genuine passion for animals shone through in every interaction. My puppy was not just looked after; she was showered with affection and given personalized care. I received regular updates, which put my mind at ease during her time away. I highly recommend Allison for anyone seeking a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter. She is a true gem in the world of pet care!”
“I had a great experience with Anabel and her family! This was my puppy’s first time staying with a dog sitter, and everything went really well. Anabel and her family were very friendly, welcoming, and caring. They were also very responsive and always got back to me quickly whenever I checked in. Most importantly, my puppy had a great time and seemed very happy and comfortable there. I would definitely recommend Anabel and her family and would be happy to have Joy stay with them again!”
“I have enjoyed Carmen taking care of my puppy. She has a very nice playroom and her bernedoodle is very friendly. My puppy has enjoyed everytime that he has been there. The communication has been very good about how he has been when he is there and she takes really cute pics and sent them to me also.”
“Mya did such a great job with my girl Mina on such short notice! Will definitely be using her as our sitter going forward. She had such a nice time with her dog as well & was very caring for her while she was in heat changing her diaper often. Could not suggest her as a sitter more!”
About: We have owned & loved several dogs over the years including training 1 to be a viable therapy dog for nursing home visits to my mom. I am home most of the day, M-Sun and have the time to love and care for a dog, and make it feel at home, while dog parent(s) are away. Our dogs are considered our furry family members and I want your dog to feel that way too! My yard is fenced and our home is clean and safe! I ensure dog(s) can go out regularly for potty breaks, and I love walking them too.
“Michael has been awesome with my dog. He is easy to communicate with to arrange drop off and pick up times. I get lots of picture and videos of my pup throughout the day.. it’s obvious she has a lot of fun playing with his dogs and she feels comfortable in his home.”
“Monica is the best! Very prompt and courteous in replying to messages, and very personable overall. Our dogs had a blast with her, even our grumpy Frenchie! She is very experienced and adept at handling multiple dogs at once, and has systems for separating pups if needed. We will definitely be booking with Monica again for our doggy needs.”
“Jonathan does such a great job caring for my senior dog! He communicates well and lets me know whether or not he will be available. He’s very flexible with my schedule and my dog seems to enjoy her stay when she is with him.”
About: I'm available all day to your furry friend! I am a stay at home wife with a consistent schedule and patient with all types of personalities. Being Rover, I've had experience from helping a mama cat give birth to her babies to senior dog care with medication. I love what I do and grateful to help owners feel at ease while they are away from their pets. I require that your pet be flea free and on a monthly flea and tick prevention. Make sure all immunizations are up to date. A clean pet is a happy pet! :) My priority in the morning is to make sure everybody is fed. (Not like they let me forget since they are the ones who poke my face to wake me up). I make sure the water bowl is clean and filled up. I am a stay-at-home wife so your furry friends will have all my attention. I'm usually cleaning, baking, cooking, gardening, or going on strolls/gym time. My husband is also a HUGE animal lover so your baby/babies will be getting 2x the love when he gets home. Usually at night, it's game time, movie time, or just hanging around with the cats. The cats usually always sleep with us, but if not, they sleep on the couch. I live in a three bedroom house with a big backyard, but one of the rooms is no pet allowed. My husband and I have a shaded patio that is gated with chicken wire so our cat friends can also enjoy the outside. The patio is separated with a gate-door, so if we are hosting a dog they can enjoy at the same time with no problems. The extra room we have allows our guest/s to have their own room with their own window. They are free to walk through the house and make themselves comfortable.
“Oh my goodness she’s so nice. My dog is exhausted. I will absolutely 100% User. Next time I need a sitter he came out happy if you were looking for a sitter or anything with dogs she’s awesome and she’s really funny.”
About: I have been around pets all my life. I grew up on a farm with several different animals. Our family favorite has always been dogs. Now, I share that enjoyment with my kids. They love being around dogs too! We enjoy walking our own dogs and playing with them. Your pet would have a loving environment with lots of attention with us! I am a stay at home mom. So, currently, I have plenty of time to schedule pet care. Please let me know when your pet needs some TLC!) We have a fenced back yard with room for dogs to go out and stretch and take care of other business:-) We have two dogs that can easily stay with family while we watch your fur baby, or our little dog, can stay to give your dog company. We will be happy to play fetch or go on walks as well.
“Great and amazing experience of day care with Alan and Reagan. Our dog was super happy playing in their beautiful backyard. They have taken great care of our dog and so attentive. Also I appreciate the updates that we get from them, lots of great pictures and videos which is very nice! Overall, a great and amazing experience and I highly recommend them.”

“Sarah helped out when we needed our dog walked several days on short notice. She sent several photos each day and our dog looked really happy each time. The photos were great too. My wife and I joked that Sarah could have a future as a photographer ?”
“Jennifer is such a sweetheart and our doggies love her! I have used her twice now and I will use her again. She communicates well, sends me cute pics, and goes above and beyond to walk them, give em love, and even basic meds while we’re gone. Also fair pricing. Thank you Jennifer!”
“Angelika was amazing with my 60lb pup who has a mind of his own on walks. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker! From the first booking, she was professional, communicative, and clearly had a love for dogs. My dog can be a little shy at first, but she was so patient and gentle that it didn’t take long for him to warm up. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring walker. Thank you again Angelika!”
“Kimberly is an outstanding doggy sitter. She took time from her very busy day to come and visit my precious Hana prior a couple of days prior to our scheduled service. On the appointment days she arrived on time to take Hana out for a walk around the neighborhood and then for some fun in the dog park. She constantly communicated with me on what my dog was doing and how she was behaving. She also sent several pictures of Hana. Hana is my first ever pet, so I always worry if I am doing something wrong. Kimberly not only put my mind at ease while she was walking Hana, but she also answered my questions and gave me tips about being a first-time dog owner. She really enjoys being with pets, and it shows when you talk to her. I am now her repeat customer and will stay that way as long as she has openings for Hana.”
“Caleb took our request upon short notice with great anticipation to help our family out. He then went above and beyond by demonstrating tremendous flexibility when we had to make a last minute adjustments to our evening plans and cancel our second scheduled walk. He was professional, kind, and understanding throughout, and he took good care of our pet. Highly recommend!”
“Ashley is an absolute gem! She walked my dogs, Jojo and Ella, and they both completely adored their time with her. Her communication was top-notch, always keeping me updated, and her flexibility with timing was a lifesaver. On top of being completely reliable, it is clear how much she truly loves dogs. I couldn't ask for a better caregiver for Jojo and Ella—highly recommended!”
“Sandra has been wonderful to our two pups. Very reliable and flexible. I am completely confident that our girls are well cared for while I am at work and my wife is out of town. Sandra even jumped in on short notice one weekend when a house sitting arrangement fell through. She provides great walk updates and constant communication. I highly recommend her and will definitely rebook in the future.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, literally since the day I was born. My experience spans dogs, cats, birds, horses, donkeys, goats, and rabbits, giving me a deep understanding of animals with very different personalities, needs, and routines. I began fostering animals at 12 years old alongside my mom, helping care for them and place them into loving forever homes. My first job was as an in home pet sitter, and I immediately fell in love with providing animals the consistent care, attention, and comfort they need while their families are away. For over 10 years, I managed a farm, which taught me how to confidently handle multiple animals at once, follow detailed care routines, and stay calm, observant, and organized in dynamic environments. While I have years of hands on experience, my love and respect for animals has always come first. As a pet parent myself, I understand the anxiety that can come with leaving your pets in someone else’s care. Because of that, I’m intentional about clear communication, regular updates, and treating every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pet is safe, loved, and in caring hands while you’re away. I’m currently working remote so my schedule always is very flexible. I can provide multiple potty breaks through out the day and I also enjoy taking pets on a mid day walk. I have a fenced in yard, two friendly dogs and a quiet neighborhood perfect for our daily walks. Crating is also available per your request.
“Cheryl is such a sweet soul with our very giddy labradoodles! She is always punctual, my dogs are so happy when they get back and they are actually winded from the long walk she gives them. Great service! Thank you Cheryl!”
“Kayli is a life saver! I’m so grateful that she was able and willing to look after my pup on such short notice. She arrived on time, took my dog on a nice stroll around the neighborhood, and refilled his food and water bowls before leaving! Thanks for taking care of my boy!!!”
“Sofia is wonderful! She is friendly, responsible, and truly caring. My pup, Luna, absolutely loves her, and I always feel comfortable knowing she's in good hands. Sofia is reliable, communicative, and makes sure Luna is well cared for during her walks. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind dog walker. I will definitely book with her again!”
About: Hi! I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone you trust, so my goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. I have had dogs of my own, as well as cared for other dogs, of all ages and sizes! Your pup will get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and affection from my whole family. I love spending time outdoors, staying active, and making sure every dog gets the care and comfort they need. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, they will be treated like part of the family. I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and attentive to each dog’s unique needs. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family member! I currently work from home full-time. I am available for boarding and sitting during the day all throughout the week. Your pet will always have a companion! In my home, pets have access to a secure fenced yard where they can safely roam, play, and get exercise with supervision. Inside, they are treated like part of the family with plenty of attention, affection, fresh water, feeding on schedule, potty breaks, and a clean environment. I can also crate pets if needed or if that is part of their regular routine at home.
“I’m working on a systematic desensitization of one of my dogs and she was so patient with her! I also accidentally sent her to the wrong address and she still came to hang out with my creatures lol”
“Madison is top tier from all aspects!! I was nervous to leave my pup for her first alone day & Madison made me feel at ease by giving her some mid day love, sending me photos of my baby, and giving a report! We appreciate her and recommend her 10/10!!!”

“My fur baby boy Royal was with Nury and her family for a five days. She did a wonderful job with him. I definitely will use her services again and recommend her to anyone needing great service. Thank you Nury for taking good care of my baby.”
“This was my first experience with Rover. I selected Lucyna because of her reviews and location. I took my very active German Shorthair Puppy over for a meet and greet. He and Lucyna’s German Shepherd hit it off immediately after their sniff and meet. Lucyna and I agreed it would be a good fit. We left our dog for two nights. Lucyna kept me updated on how my dog was doing including cute pictures. She took both dogs for walks (not an easy chore considering their size and energy level). She treated my dog as one of their family. When we picked him up he was “sort of” happy to see us. My surprise! I thought he would be head over heels! He obviously loved and felt loved by their family and dog. And because they played constantly, he came home and immediately napped. A good sign. Definitely recommend Lucyna to take care of your favorite canine. This was the first time our dog had been away from us and now I can feel comfortable traveling while I leave our dog at his new home away from home. Also I must add how impressed I am with her immediate response to my texts. Highly recommend, and thanks Lucyna! And Rover.”

“Yvonne is absolutely AMAZING. She’s so caring for Stella, flexible and provides constant updates with pictures. Thank you, hands down our favorite dog sitter as we continue to book over and over with her.”
“I would love to recommend Libby for your next pet sitting needs. She is professional and caring. Libby welcomed our two dogs, Abby and Carly, into her home and treated them like family. The pictures and videos of my pups enjoying their stay made my heart happy.”
