“The girls had a great time with Elana! We got periodic photo updates during their stay which was a sweet touch. They also came back ready for a nap so I'm sure they got some good walks.”
“STOP! Look no more! This is the sitter u are looking for. My frenchie loves people but is very picky with whom he cuddles with. Within one day, he was snuggling with Terri. Shes a special human who really has a connection with animals. Her pictures and updates are stellar! Book her!”
“Sullivan loved Morgan - his first time being cared for by a Rover pet sitter! He is an older, sensitive Scotty and I fully expected to have to pick him up early due to anxiety. But he stayed the full time and was so chill when I arrived to pick him up. So happy he did well and so appreciated her texts and photos to ease my mind and know he was being his enjoyable self. I will definitely be booking Morgan again as soon as I have my vacation dates nailed down!”
“Kirby had the best time with Mary and new doggie friends over the weekend! He was so exhausted from playing once he got home. Thanks for taking great care of our boy!!”
“Anita is a very wonderful sitter, took care of my doggo like her own, played with her when he did not want to walk, gave him home made food and took him on long walks. She shared lots of updates too.”
“Jiahna is amazing. She is very sweet and quick with messages. She did her best to accommodate with pickup and drop off timings. Rusty was very happy there and was playing with 2 other dogs that kept him busy. I would love to keep Rusty with Jiahna again in future. 💜”
“Shalini provided excellent care to our Frenchie on a recent weekend stay. She welcomed our girl into her family's home and sent us pictures and a video showing Ladybug had settled in right away and was having a good time. Thank you, Shalini for your kind care of our girl!”
“Tammy is fantastic! She took great care of Charlie! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and will absolutely be having her watch Charlie again. It’s great to feel free to travel and know that your dog is being well cared for. I love that he had other dogs to play with all week, and came home happy and exhausted. If you are looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and professional home-boarding experience, this is it.”
“Katie is the best! She is easy to communicate with and sends regular updates. Katie has boarded my dog twice now and I will continue to reach out to her for future trips. She is reliable, accommodating, and very sweet with my dog. I highly recommend her to others!”
“Lyandra was an absolutely awesome! I had to go out of town for just under a week and left my German Shepherd, Lilly, in her care. From day one, Lyandra was extremely communicative and sent wonderful updates and photos that put my mind at ease. It was clear Lilly was having the absolute best time — tons of play, attention, and fun. When I came to pick her up, Lilly almost seemed sad to leave! I honestly don’t think you could find a better person to watch your dog. Lyandra is caring, reliable, and genuinely loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Great dog sitter! Communicated really well and helped us out in a pinch when we were getting home late. Would happily request again for our 7 yr old Corgi. She came home very happy.”
“Allison was great! She is so kind and was very patient with my Trigger and his anxiety and sent updates with photos throughout the time he was with her. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Jill and Aaron were amazingly attentive and kind sitters for our senior Pomeranian with a special diet and medication. They answered any questions we had, and were happy to listen to any info that would help them to better understand our dog’s old-man quirks. They have a great place for dogs to hang and relax, we would highly recommend using their services!”
“Shay did a great job with our 2 little girls. She kept in touch with good communication and pictures to let us know that our pups were doing well. She made sure they were safe and loved on. It was our first time using Rover, but she calmed our nerves and we would definitely have her watch out fur babies in the future.”
“Where do I start? Communication, love, attention and reassurance- we got it all with leaving our two dogs with Nickey. One dog is a tripod but that didn’t seem to matter at all - he got the same attention and love as the other. I never felt like I didn’t know what was happening or how they were being treated. They both came home tired and happy. I will definitely be a repeat customer. Nickey loves my dogs just as much as we do and that has no price and peace of mind.”

“Kearstin was amazing and helped us out last minute with cat sitting for our cat. She was responsive, reliable, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. We really appreciated the updates and the care she gave our cat. Everything went smoothly, and we would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“A+ Pet Sitter! Michelle was all-around excellent and we greatly appreciate her help, especially on short notice with a major holiday (July 4th). We appreciated her attention to detail, and care she provided our cat with the updates we got every day. We would highly and definitely recommend Michelle.”
“Cedric is the best, excellent with my cats and makes my vacations so much better knowing that I don’t have to worry. They’re very trustworthy, prompt and quick to respond. We will be using them again.”
“Amazing cat sitter!! I hired her to come 2x a day for 5 days and she did a great job caring for my kitties. She takes lots of cute notes and photos. Will definitely hire her again in the future!”
“I highly recommend Victoria as a pet sitter! She always takes such good care of my kitty. She helped out with super short notice when I had unplanned family emergency and took great care of my kitty”
“Susan was wonderful! She was very communicative and thoughtful. Will definitely have her watch my kids and house in future. I don't think my cats even cared I was gone.”
About: I've taken care of cats for many years. I've had cats of my own, and also befriended any neighborhood feline I could find! I'm highly experienced in both senior cat and kitten care. If your feline is extremely shy, I'll be patient and move slowly and quietly in their presence. If your cat is loud, mischievous, and a mastermind at manipulating a second dinner out of visitors, I can provide the cuddles, playtime, and firm love that they need! I'm used to high-maintenance pets and a wide variety of feline personalities. It would be a pleasure to care for your fuzzy family members!
“Amanda was fantastic! She was incredibly kind and her communication was great. And, our grumpy cat liked her, which never happens. Will definitely book with Amanda again.”
“Kevin was awesome! He was very easy to coordinate with and punctual. He was able to help take care of my cats’ food, water, litter box cleaning, cat deliveries and taking out the kitty trash while I was away! He also gave me the option to extend and was flexible which I appreciated. After meeting with him I also rebooked him for additional longer term help that included medication administering.”
“Jessica helped me out over this July 4th holiday & I am so thankful! Her responses were quick, she is easy to communicate with, & my pups love her. I know this by seeing the photos she sent me. I will rebook with Jessica, anytime. Thank you Jessica!”
“Jocelyn was absolutely a blessing. My dogs just adored her. She was so easy to book with. She took the most adorable pictures of them. I was missing the dogs so much and she gave me so much peace of mind. I can not recommend her enough!”
“Excellent! First time Rover user and couldn't be more pleased! Marlene melted my worries away while out of town, providing pictures of my shy senior kitty. Thank you!”
“Janice was a great pet sitter for my cats. She's communicative, dependable, and followed the feeding and caretaking instructions I provided. I definitely recommend Janice to others as a pet sitter and plan to utilize her services again.”
About: I’m a cat parent myself and I truly understand that cats are- well, cats, in the best ways. 🥰 They have their own boundaries, routines, and ways of feeling safe. I’m calm, gentle, and very respectful of each cat’s personality (social, independent, shy, or slow-to-warm). On drop-ins I’ll follow your routine closely: feeding, water refresh, litter box care, and any meds or special instructions. I’ll also do whatever your cat prefers—playtime, treats, brushing, or simply quiet companionship (and if your cat wants space, I’ll honor that while still checking in to make sure they’re safe and doing well). I pay attention to the small details that matter to cat parents— safe and secure environment, noticing appetite/litter changes, and making sure your cat feels comfortable in their environment. You’ll always get thoughtful updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away.

“Goose had a GREAT time with Elena and Klemheist. He came home a happy and sleepy puppy. Elena helped me out last minute after my previous sitter had to cancel and I could not be more thankful. I’ll definitely be using Elena next time I need doggy daycare or boarding for Goose.”
“Marlene is someone I trust to take good care of my dog. She took care of my sweet Potato for three days and he came home happy and tired from all the play with other dogs. It is nice to know he is in good hands with Marlene.”
“Anita took great care of my dog Rio! She constantly sent me pictures and kept me updated. Rio came back home tired and a happy dog!? Will definitely book her again.”
About: Hi, I’m Lyah! 🐾⭐️ 5-Star Rover Pet Sitter Hi! My name is Lyandra, but you can call me Lyah. I’m originally from Brazil and now proudly call the U.S. home. Caring for animals has always been my passion, and today it’s my full-time career. As a 5-star Rover sitter, my focus is 100% on the pets in my care. I don’t have another job—providing personalized, loving, and professional pet care is what I do every day. I share my home with two cats and one dog, so I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Every guest is treated like family. I’ve cared for dogs in Brazil, London, and now in the United States. I have experience with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, as well as dogs of all breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog enjoys long hikes, swimming, parks, and outdoor adventures, or prefers short walks, indoor enrichment, naps, and cuddles, I customize every stay to match their routine and your preferences. Because pet care is my full-time profession, I provide 24/7 supervision. Your dog is rarely left alone and will receive constant attention, companionship, exercise, and plenty of love. On weekends, my husband loves helping me care for our furry guests. He joins us for walks, outdoor adventures, and playtime, giving every dog even more attention and companionship. During their stay, your pup may enjoy: 🐾 24/7 supervision 🐾 Long or short walks based on their needs 🐾 Indoor and outdoor enrichment activities 🐾 Parks, river walks, beaches, and nature trails (with your approval) 🐾 Swimming adventures (when safe and appropriate) 🐾 Plenty of one-on-one attention and cuddles 🐾 Daily photo and video updates Your pet’s safety is my highest priority. I am Pet First Aid & CPR Certified, giving you extra peace of mind while you’re away. As a complimentary thank-you to every family, I love sending each dog home fresh and clean. Before pick-up, I provide a complimentary bath whenever it’s appropriate for your dog’s coat, health, and temperament, so they go home looking and smelling their best. It’s my little gift to every guest! 🛁✨ If your dog is used to sleeping in bed, they’re welcome to cuddle with us! My husband and I always joke that the bed belongs to the pets we just happen to sleep in it. ❤️ My goal is simple: to provide a safe, peaceful, enriching, and loving home where every dog feels comfortable, secure, and genuinely cared for. I can’t wait to welcome your furry family member into our home! 🐶💕 I stay at home, your dog will enjoy companionship, personalized attention, and dedicated care throughout the day. I provide frequent potty breaks, daily walks, playtime, and a safe, supervised environment where your pet will never feel lonely. My home is shared with three friendly resident pets an 8 month old puppy who loves meeting new friends and two gentle cats. For everyone’s comfort and safety, I only accept dogs that are friendly with cats. Please note that I do not offer pick-up or drop-off services unless transportation is arranged through Uber or another ride service. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. Although I live in an apartment, my community offers a large, fully fenced dog park, and we’re located right next to the river with beautiful walking paths. We also have easy access to Forest Park and nearby hiking trails, giving your dog plenty of opportunities for exercise, enrichment, and outdoor adventures. My apartment community also features a professional pet washing station, similar to a pet grooming salon. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly home where every dog is supervised and treated with the same love, patience, and care as if they were my own. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and having a wonderful time while you’re away.
“Having Jiahna care for Gideon has been a real pleasure. She was very helpful and flexible as we did a meet and greet and evaluated if Gideon would be a good fit. She took time to ask really good questions about Gideon and learn all she could so it's the better care for Gideon. From the get-go, Gideon loved being at her house and sharing time with her puppy. It was a good fit. I always knew that Jiahna had Gideon's best in mind, and I always got good reports at the end of the day. So very glad that I got to meet and have Gideon stay with Jiahna. I highly recommend her as a safe and professional Rover person for your canine needs. Gideon will miss her for sure and I have really appreciated the care and great connection that she showed in caring for Gideon. 💜🐕”
About: I have a genuine passion for learning about and understanding all types of animals. My experience in pet care comes from years of personally caring for my own pets, assisting friends and family, and volunteering in various animal care settings. This hands-on experience has deepened my knowledge and strengthened my commitment to providing attentive, compassionate care. Living with a high-maintenance Frenchie means my days revolve around his care—and if you have a Frenchie, you understand! I regularly clean his paws, wipe his face and bottom, and apply coconut oil to his facial wrinkles several times a day, along with moisturizing his coat for softness. I also provide him with tailored supplements and healthy vegetable treats to keep him happy and thriving. In my home or my client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment tailored to each pet’s needs. I follow their regular routines closely—including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care like medications or grooming. I also keep pet areas clean, offer lots of affection and attention, and provide updates to ensure peace of mind for the pet parent. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch or outdoor adventures, I treat every pet like part of the family.
“Crystal provides a safe and happy place for my dogs. Obi and Haiku return tired and contented. They've had a fun day or afternoon playing with Crystal's dogs. Definitely recommend.”
“Logan is knowledgeable and patient with newcomers. Appropriate introductions made Sadie feel comfortable and safe. Pups are well cared for and given lots of love and attention.”

About: In our previous home in Missouri my husband and I frequently pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors. We moved to Washington January of 2025 and have missed the furry friends we cared for there. I have experience with large and small dogs including some elderly and some very high energy. I’ve also looked after cats, individuals and larger groups including groups with various feeding needs. I work virtually and can be available most week days for daytime pet sitting in homes that have consistent internet access or drop ins a few times a day. On weekends my availability varies but I can typically plan for drop in and overnight care with at least 1 week notice. I am married and may request my spouse be allowed to stay with me or drop by in longer term sitting situations. Whether it’s a walk or a week together I’ll try to treat your pet with the same care and attention you would. Allowing you to feel comfortable while you are away. As a pet sitter I try not to disrupt your furry family member’s typical schedule as much as possible. Pet care is very individual so I try to conform to what that pet is familiar with to minimize anxiety for them, while making sure their basic needs are met.
“And again, I worked with Stefanie and her family to take care of my Mochi and I was very happy with the experience. They were able to accommodate a last-minute request and provided excellent care for Mochi. I am definitely working with them again.”
“Wonderful sitters. They really worked at understanding and respecting Deja's sweet and spicy personality. Deja had a great time and I felt very comfortable leaving her in their care.”
“My dog Finn absolutely loves Viktoriya. She kept me updated throughout the day with LOTS of pictures and videos. He came back a happy and calm pooch after his daycare with her. ❤️ Thank you for taking such good care of my baby.”
“Muammer and his partner were so kind and welcoming. They took great care of bunny and bear (two Pomeranian puppies) sent multiple updates/ pictures and videos and when I picked the girls up they were so tired from a fun play day. We will definitely book again. Thank you both for taking such good care of our babies! 🥰😊”
About: I've been a dog handler for about eight years. I started at Meg's Dog House as my first job out of high school and learned everything I know about dogs in my 7 years working there. When Covid hit, Meg and her husband retired and I moved to Seattle where I have spent the last year working as a live in caregiver until recently moving into my own place. I just moved to Arizona after a decade of wanting to make the switch (grew up in Washington and hate the weather) and would love to pick up some side jobs here and there. While Rover cannot be my fulltime job due to the inconsistencies of bookings, I do maintain a main job but I do dedicate most my available free time to the dogs I'm watching when I am off work and schedules would be thoroughly discussed before booking. I have two dogs and two kittens, so I'm used to having animals and catering to them around my schedule. Currently I have open availability but this will change when I get a job so it just depends on my new hours but generally speaking I like a minimum of 3 walks daily, with at least one of them being to an area where they can safely run off leash or on a long line to stretch their legs. However the client prefers. I am adaptable and willing to learn. I have worked with special needs dogs, older dogs, and have a lot of experience with puppies. I am a novice trainer and groomer as well so my whole world is centered around animals!

About: I have been caring for dogs since 2016, gaining years of hands-on experience and developing a deep understanding of their needs, personalities, and well-being. I hold a special place in my heart for senior dogs and am deeply committed to providing them with comfort and a loving forever home. In 2020, I rescued my beloved Annie, who became an irreplaceable part of my life. Earlier this year, she sadly crossed the rainbow bridge, leaving behind a legacy of unconditional love and companionship that continues to inspire my dedication to dog care.I take great pride in being a responsible, attentive, and compassionate caretaker. My goal is to ensure that every dog in my care feels safe, loved, accepted, and well looked after, especially during times when their owners are unable to be present. Your dog’s comfort, happiness, and well-being are always my highest priorities. 🐾 I work full time; however, my schedule is flexible, allowing me to dedicate time, attention and care to your furry friend. I am available to take your friend on regular walks, provide drop-in visits, and closely monitor their well-being when you are unable to do so. My priority is to ensure that your pet remains comfortable, safe, and well cared for throughout the day, receiving the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I live in a well-maintained apartment that has been fully dog-proofed to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for furry friends. The space features large open windows and skylights that allow an abundance of natural sunlight to fill the home, making it an ideal setting for dogs who enjoy relaxing and sunbathing as my own Annie once did. I also have a large crate available for dogs who are crate trained and find comfort in it. Dogs are welcome on the couch, as I believe they should feel at home, relaxed, and included during their stay. My goal is to provide a calm, secure, and welcoming environment where your dog can feel comfortable and cared for at all times.
“I appreciate Mishie's flexibility: She is new to us and was not planning on starting for several more weeks with my pup but I picked up extra shift and Mishie was available with a little rearranging of the day she made sure my Bella had a good walk and some attention to break up her day while I was at work. Thank you for taking the time and the care for put little velociraptor.”
“Kearstin has been walking our dog Sammi for a little over a month now and it's been a tremendous help. We've been around a couple of times when Kearstin has come by and Sammi is thrilled to see her. We've noticed an improvement in Sammi's attitude when we get home in the afternoon because of the exercise she's getting and the new friend she's made.”
“We really appreciate Cedric! He is so reliable and always leaves us detailed notes. I have never had to worry if my pup will be cared for. Thank you, Cedric!”
About: I have grown up around animals my whole life (farm animals included!) I currently own a corgi who is very loved and spoiled. I am an avid walker and would love to burn some energy on a walk with your pup! I work a full time job but have availability after work and also reliable transportation. My nights and weekends usually consist of snuggling up and reading a good book. My only responsibility is my cat Bleu. 😊 Your home is a safe space for your animals so I will be sure to adapt to their routine and make them feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: I’m a small business house cleaner looking for some furry friends to join me on a walk! I’m a life long animal lover and former dog owner. I’ve walked dogs on and off for the last 10 years. I’m currently a small business house cleaner with a schedule of 3-4 days a week, 3-6 hours a day. I go on a 3 mile walk every day. I have a fenced yard and no pets of my own. I am a house cleaner so I have experience in trusted relationships with clients and their homes and pets.
“Sara has made an incredible first impression. She goes above and beyond to ensure that my pup is receiving the proper care. She has been fantastically, easy to communicate with, and schedule with.”
“Adam is fantastic! He's reliable and a quick to respond to messages and requests. He quickly learned my dog's favorite spots in the neighborhood and let's him watch his squirrel friends. He provides reports and pictures. After a long walk with Adam, my dog is ready to nap until I get home from work. Totally recommend Adam!”
“Logan has been walking my strong and sweet teenage pittie boy for the last couple of weeks. I use him for dog/breed education and of course, I adore him. So I am picky. I am thoroughly impressed with Logan. It is evident that she is familiar with dogs, their behavior and training. She is consistent, patient, very communicative, and passionate about taking care of the pups in her care. I would definitely recommend her. It provides significant comfort to know your pet is in good hands.”
“Jocelyn is so great with our dog! Our lab has some funny habits, so it’s always great to find a match that works so well. She came a day early for a meet and greet, was on time and had great walks with our girl. Jocelyn was always very communicative as well, which we appreciated very much. Can’t wait to book more walks in the future! Highly recommended!”
About: Licensed & Insured dog walking business, run by pet CPR & first-aid certified dog daycare professionals. We practice polite leash manners using positive reinforcement only! We have experience managing low to moderate reactivity and helping shy and anxious pups gain confidence. While we are not certified trainers ourselves, we do work with them regularly and have learned a lot from watching them. Our primary goal is making every walk a joyful and enriching experience for every dog in our care 💜 We are a relatively new business, so have lots of availability currently, but we are growing quickly and that won't be true forever. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out. We can't wait to strut with your pup! Pet care is my life and my joy! I work 5 days a week at a wonderful dog daycare with my business partner, and we have very different schedules so we can accommodate morning, midday, or afternoon walks, no matter the day. We have enough regular business that we have experienced just about anything a walk around the neighborhood can throw at us. For most walks and drop-in visits, we want to maximize the time your dog spends outside. We are pretty quick to get harnesses and jackets on so we can get out the door. Locking the door behind us is part of the routine so you know your home is safe even when we are out on a walk. We like to know where cleaning supplies are located, so we can get accidents or spills cleaned up. We are happy to refresh your pet's water bowl after the walk, feed them a quick lunch/treat, or get in some play time or snuggles on the couch! We do not enter rooms without permission and are always respectful of your things.
About: I have been caring for pets my entire life. When I was young, I started a dog walking service with my friend, that lasted years. I started rover to earn extra income when I had my son, now 7. I would love the opportunity to make your pet a part time family member in our home and give you the reassurance your pet is happy and safe while you are away! I have a 12 year old, neutered male husky that would love a part time buddy, and a neutered male cat. If your little one doesnt like other pets, I can keep them separated, no problem! Your pup is only allowed on the furniture if YOU allow them to be! They are both great with cats and dogs. This gives me the opportunity to work on getting up and active through out the days I dont work. I look forward to meeting your furry family member! My child is in school for most of the day and I usually work a few days out of the week due to my online education needs, so I have the entire day to fit your care into my schedule. I allow animals to get comfortable on their own terms and am not pushy with them getting used to my presence. I enjoy playing and ensuring a clean, calm environment.

This hands-on experience has deepened my knowledge and strengthened my commitment to providing attentive, compassionate care.

“Knox loves Hallie! I was looking for a sitter and interviewing folks, but Knox was not having it or picking anybody until Hallie came along. He gets really excited when she pulls up and comes home a happy hound. She’s on time, responsive and even walked in the pouring rain for an hour without a coat. Will definitely keep Hallie around for walks, and can rest easy knowing he’ll be in good hands when I am on vacay. Thanks Hallie!”
About: 2026 update. My lap is nearly always occupied by an 11 year old black cat named Darth Vader. He is bold and social with people, cats, and dogs. Then theres our oldest, Mimi, a 13 year old black cat who is much more timid. Thumbs, our polydactyl calico floof is 6 years old now. Thumbs also hides out often. Both girls have come out of their hidden spots once used to guests. I’ve been around animals as long as I can remember. For many years I had large dogs, pitbulls and mixes. Most of my pets have started off as rescues, but all became loved family members. Our dogs have all crossed the rainbow bridge, but that didn’t remove my talent, passion and care with canines. I currently work part time in Mukilteo. My profession will take priority for roughly 6 hours a week. I do not work overtime, nor on weekends. This seems like a strange question. I care for my pets by feeding them, making sure they have water, cuddling and loving them, walks, and sometimes just naps together.

“The girls had a great time with Elana! We got periodic photo updates during their stay which was a sweet touch. They also came back ready for a nap so I'm sure they got some good walks.”
“Sullivan loved Morgan - his first time being cared for by a Rover pet sitter! He is an older, sensitive Scotty and I fully expected to have to pick him up early due to anxiety. But he stayed the full time and was so chill when I arrived to pick him up. So happy he did well and so appreciated her texts and photos to ease my mind and know he was being his enjoyable self. I will definitely be booking Morgan again as soon as I have my vacation dates nailed down!”
“Kirby had the best time with Mary and new doggie friends over the weekend! He was so exhausted from playing once he got home. Thanks for taking great care of our boy!!”
“Anita is a very wonderful sitter, took care of my doggo like her own, played with her when he did not want to walk, gave him home made food and took him on long walks. She shared lots of updates too.”
“Jiahna is amazing. She is very sweet and quick with messages. She did her best to accommodate with pickup and drop off timings. Rusty was very happy there and was playing with 2 other dogs that kept him busy. I would love to keep Rusty with Jiahna again in future. 💜”
“Tammy is fantastic! She took great care of Charlie! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and will absolutely be having her watch Charlie again. It’s great to feel free to travel and know that your dog is being well cared for. I love that he had other dogs to play with all week, and came home happy and exhausted. If you are looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and professional home-boarding experience, this is it.”
“Lyandra was an absolutely awesome! I had to go out of town for just under a week and left my German Shepherd, Lilly, in her care. From day one, Lyandra was extremely communicative and sent wonderful updates and photos that put my mind at ease. It was clear Lilly was having the absolute best time — tons of play, attention, and fun. When I came to pick her up, Lilly almost seemed sad to leave! I honestly don’t think you could find a better person to watch your dog. Lyandra is caring, reliable, and genuinely loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Allison was great! She is so kind and was very patient with my Trigger and his anxiety and sent updates with photos throughout the time he was with her. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Shay did a great job with our 2 little girls. She kept in touch with good communication and pictures to let us know that our pups were doing well. She made sure they were safe and loved on. It was our first time using Rover, but she calmed our nerves and we would definitely have her watch out fur babies in the future.”
“She provided excellent care, gave our pup plenty of love and attention, and made sure all medications were given on time. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our dog was in such good hands. We’ll definitely be using her again! ⸻”
“I was very nervous about finding a sitter for my shy shih tzu mix, Bean, during our vacation, especially since we are new to the state and don't know many people yet! I was hesitant to search Rover, but ultimately came across Sarah's profile and was very impressed, so we set up a meet and greet where she answered all my questions, and then I booked! Naturally I was nervous the first day or two, but with the updates and photos/videos Sarah provided kept me completely calm and at ease the rest of my vacation! Safe to say that I know Bean will have a great time with Sarah whenever we go out of town from now on!”
“Highly recommend Monica! Monica took amazing care of our dogs, Romeo and Leo, while we were on vacation. From the very beginning, she was incredibly kind, responsible, and easy to work with. She kept us updated regularly with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that both Romeo and Leo were happy, comfortable, and well cared for throughout their stay. When we picked them up, they came back healthy, relaxed, and in great spirits. What really stood out was how accommodating Monica was with our constantly changing travel schedule. Our trip got rescheduled multiple times, and she was very understanding and flexible, which we truly appreciated. We also loved that she only boards a small number of dogs at a time (just two), so they get plenty of attention and care. We’re so glad we found Monica and will definitely trust her again in the future”
“Our pet Trigg had a great time with Shaunette and her dog. She took great care of him and shared photos and videos regularly. We strongly recommend sitting your pet with her!”
“So great! We had to be out of our house because it flooded and we didn’t know exact timing and AJ was so great! Took such great care of Rocky! Communicated so well! We were never worried how he was!! Thank you so much!!”
“Cooper was well taken care. We got lots of pics and updates. He had so much fun! Thank you to Genevieve and her family for making Cooper feel at home and part of the clan!”
“Kristen and Brian are the best! They showered our baby with so much love and affection, we don't think our baby missed us at all! They kept sending us pictures throughout. Fed her well and she got a lot of playtime with their fur baby as well!!! 100% will go back to them.”
