Highly-rated overnight sitters - Sumner
“Diahann was amazing! This was our first time booking with Diahann and she took great care of our senior dog Mia. The communication was great, as she sent plenty of updates and pictures/videos throughout the stay. We were reassured that Mia was being well taken care of for the weekend. I would definitely use her again.”
“If I could give Kathie 10 stars I would!!!! I cannot express enough how thoughtful, loving and caring Kathie is towards our dog! She went the extra mile when caring for Bogey and we are so grateful! If you are considering Kathie to care for your pet... BOOK HER! Thanks SO MUCH Kathie!❤️”
“First time using rover and found Noelle to be a great fit for our 2 bigger dogs. She has years of experience with animals and it shows in her attention to detail and the level of care she provided. We got updates with pictures and videos all through their stay. She took them on walks, they got a chance to play with her own dogs. They came back to us happy and worn out! We will definitely use Noelle again!”
“We were so happy we found Angela to watch our pup! She is super bubbly and friendly and made sure we were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about our boy ❤️ looking forward to booking with her more in the future!”
“My dog Cookie was well taken care of. Nikkole listened to my concerns, vet's suggestions, and what works best for my dog, and goes above and beyond! Cookie was so well taken care of in my absence, and he came home so healthy and happy. I will definitely be taking him back and am thankful to her for treating my dog as one of her own.”
“Wilbur’s week-long stay with Charlotte was all around easy! We got video and photo updates that kept us reassured that he was a happy guy during his stay. Charlotte was also very considerate when our travel plans changed. We’d be happy to book with her again next time we travel.”
“Lili had a wonderful weekend stay with Dana. It was our first time using Rover and Dana set our minds at ease. She shared photos of Lili playing with the other dogs and we knew that she was in good hands from the get go. Glad to have Dana caring for our dog!”
“Keri and her family truly love dogs and taking care of them. We felt confident leaving our corgi Benny with her. She went the extra mile and we will definitely be booking again!”
“Katie was amazing to work with! She and her family took such good care of our dog, we received lots of updates and pictures of her throughout her time there. Highly recommend and we'll 100% be using her going forward!”
“Cindy was great with my dog! I felt confident and comfortable leaving him with her at her house. She did well to send photos and updates as time went on and was clear in her communication throughout the whole experience. I highly recommend Cindy for pet sitting!!”
“I was a little nervous leaving my dog with someone new, but Kristin was wonderful. She kept me updated with photos, which I really appreciated, and it was obvious my dog was having a great time. One of her favorite things is playing in water, so seeing all the fun she had made me so happy. She came home tired and happy, and I could tell she had been well cared for.”
“Total peace of mind while away! We were instantly relieved when our highly energetic pup immediately took to Keri and Kerry's family, yard and Beau :) This lovely family puts you at ease with their calm demeanor and years of knowledge and experience with dogs (including active puppies). They are exceptionally intuitive with new and old dogs. Our pup was so well exercised, daily, that it allayed our usual concerns of him getting into mischief. Keri and Kerry were always quick to respond and kept us informed daily. Communication was clear and easy. He was so well cared for that we were genuinely and regularly blown away when we received the pics of him laying contentedly, relaxing and getting pets and love from this wonderful family! Their love and ability to quickly identify and address your dog's needs will bring you the peace of mind needed to enjoy your time away. We will book with them from now on! Thank you Keri and Kerry!”
“Kristine was wonderful. She was friendly and very attentive to Mina and Kodi. We adopted both dogs the end of September, and I was worried about leaving them so soon because they were both still adjusting, but both dogs took to her almost immediately. She sent me pictures every day and I could see that they were very comfortable. I will definitely use her again and will recommend her to my family and friends.”

“I don’t know if you’re able to review a person more than once. But I had Andrhu coming for drop in visits during my long work hours because he lives just a few blocks away. I noticed my cat who is 15 took to him right away and he paid attention to my very *particular* requests about her care. Not only did I have a significant increase in my cats level of calmness - but literally at the LAST minute I saw that the sitter I use when I’m out of town had left my cat alone for almost 24 hours. Then pushed he out of bed when the cat tried to ask for minimal attention. To say I was crushed was an understatement. I was in complete tears. I have a lot going on and am kind of a single pet parent until my husband can join me in the USA. Andrhu AGAIN was a god send. One one days notice I let the other sitter go home for personal reasons and Andrhu agreed to stay - he was with her most all day every day. I came home today, my cat happy, playing with a ball at 15 years old. And now I am comfortable purchasing a kitten to make her (and I) even happier. Knowing I have Andrhu close by - he’s SO flexible. He’s honest and communicates expectations clearly which I appreciate and respect. The amount of guilt I carry about leaving her is at a zero. Down from about 200 on my last vacation. And now with our new addition coming - I consider Andrhu to be part of my cat tribe to make sure they’re all ok. I don’t want him to get completely booked (selfishly). But this is the relationship I needed for my sweet girl until my husband is allowed to live here - and for every vacation after. I highly recommend treating him with utmost respect. I have a guest set of linens, towels and hope Andrhu will help himself to anything food or drink in my home. At this point my home is him home and even if we haven’t met he is cat-family. Hire him whenever you can. The compassion he shows to even old pets it unmatched. I’m almost crying tears of joy from having my anxiety so much reduced in this difficult time in my life.”
“Ivy was fantastic! I appreciated her patience, understanding, and consideration with Aspen. She was kind, thoughtful and careful while Aspen became comfortable with her. Scheduling and coordinating with Ivy was a breeze. She put in time and effort to make the schedule and manage everything through Rover. I'll be using Ivy in the future, without a doubt.”
“Jazmyne was fantastic! I booked her to check in on my four cats for a couple days and am happy I did. She was kind, communicative, willing to take on the challenge of feeding my monsters wet food (they are spoiled and will only eat their food if I prepare it a certain way), spent time playing with them, and left my home nice and tidy. Additionally, she was able to make my grumpy Siamese comfortable enough to run on his cat wheel! I will 100% be booking with her from now on.”
“Scout was alive, and the house was not in tatters when I got home! Who could ask for more?!? Seriously, I am satisfied with the care Scout received while I was gone. I just need to know how I get my house key back? Thanks!”
“Nikki was so fabulous with our Minnie! She remembered all the nuances of Minnie’s needs and she made us feel that Minnie was safe in her care. She is young and cautious and after the first day Nikki was able to pet her and play. So grateful we found her. Thank you Nikki. We’re already booked with her for the next adventure!”

“Nicole did a great job helping out with my new puppy Benni. I couldn't leave him in his crate for too long while I was at work. She was able to let him out, played with him in the back yard, and fed him his mid-day meal. Nicole was punctual, and communicated to me when she might arrive a little early/late. Would definitely recommend!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I have nothing but good things to say about Jessica. She’s very genuine and kind. She cared for my senior dog while we were on a trip for 5 days and she went above and beyond! I am very satisfied with his care!”
“Amazing! Aleta is very friendly and caring for your pets. She sent me photos to share how they are doing. Even brought in packages left at the door. Will definitely ask Aleta to assist again. Thank you so much ?”
“Alexis took great care of our cat Amber! During every drop-in she sent photos of how he was doing and kept us updated. She was very clean and followed all our instructions perfectly. We definitely will be hiring her again the future!”

But while I'm visiting your own, your pet's routine is important to me.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sumner
“When my older Corgi and I were busy for several days, Odalys's daycare was the perfect for my younger Corgi! Easy drop off and pick up, great communication, and Knox came home happy and tired! It was great for him to be able to get out and move during the day and to get a chance to play!”
“Leslie was great with our pup. With this being our first time using Rover I was a bit nervous leaving our guy with someone. But Leslie allowed us to do a meet and greet with my pup and her and her dogs, and they hit it off great. It was comforting to know that he’d be treated with the same level of care as when he’s home. When the day finally came to leave him, my pup was nervous being left behind and I was nervous leaving him, but that anxiety was eased by regular updates with texts, a picture and a video. She really was amazing and her husband was pretty awesome too with supporting her. I highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again! Thank you Leslie for being so awesome with your care of my fur baby:)”
“Our dog was instantly at home the moment he met Kathie. We had never left him with anyone before and this turned out to be a great experience. Now we know we can go away overnight and our dog will be right at home at Kathie’s house!”
“She is wonderful! Takes great care of our 9 week old puppy, and is very considerate of the fact that he is not fully vaccinated so she keeps him separate from other dogs. She is awesome!”
“I was so lucky to find Ashley! She is so kind and sweet to my Nui. He was so comfortable there. Til bed time, beautiful she wa so patient with him and wore him out! I am so blessed to have met you Ashlet. THANK YOU FOR TAKING CARE OF NUI ASHLEY! Definitely will be using her again!”

About: **Meet and Greet Required for all New Clients** I am certified graduate from Animal Behavior College with over 15 years of experience caring and training dogs. I own Awakening Companionship, a positive reinforcement training business. Having worked professionally and personally with a variety of dog ages, breeds and personalities, I understand the importance of personalized pet care! I currently work from home as a graphic designer, except for one or two days a week subbing at SBL School District or when I see dog training clients. I do have two cats and three senior dogs, so staying close to home for their needs would align with any pet I am caring for. *New Clients must be crated trained!* This is to ensure safety around my other pets during feedings and sleeping/naps.

“I keep bringing Bella back to Diahann because I k ow my baby is being well cared for. I always get pics of her throughout her time there. In addition, super appreciative of how flexible she is with last .minute adjustments. I highly recommend her for doggy daycare services.”
“Madeline took great care of our dog Koda, she stayed for dog daycare two days in a row and had a great time. Her communication was very timely and she sent updates on how things went with our dog. Will definitely book again!”
“Couldn’t be happier with our pup’s stay with Keri. She was super friendly, accommodating, and responsive, and sent cute pictures during the day. She took great care of Tank and he came back tired and happy.”
“Kristina was a great dog sitter, she took the time to meet our dog before taking care of her. She was lovely with our dog and also shared pictures and was very communicative. No doubt she will be the person/family that I want and I feel confident to leave my pet.”
“Meredith took care of Genny during the day while we were having some home repairs completed. Genny had a great time, and came home tired after spending the day playing with “friends”. Meredith communicated promptly and sent pics of Genny having fun through the week. We will definitely use her services again!”

About: I’ve been caring for cats, kittens, dogs, and puppies for over 12 years. It started when I was young, helping family and friends with their pets, and naturally grew into fostering both puppies and adult dogs. Today, I live with a ragdoll cat, two mini schnauzer doggies, and regularly foster dogs. My 2 senior cats that I grew up with currently live with my mom. Every dog or puppy I foster and have in my home learns routines and tricks based on their needs. I’ve helped with leash training, crate and potty training, managing toy reactivity, and teaching commands like sit, shake, and touch. My pets get plenty of playtime, structure, and love and yours will too. I’m careful with pet introductions and always prioritize comfort and safety. I understand every animal is different and will listen closely to your concerns to provide personalized care. I also love sending regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, safe, and loved. I work from home, and I am pretty flexible on ensuring the care needed for your pet. I have a lot of time to spoil your pets! I have a fully fenced yard, and monitor pets when they are outside. I introduce pets slowly with positive association and ensure each pet is comfortable. I also have a fence to separate pets indoors if needed. When caring for friends/family's pets, I always ensure pets do not bolt out the door both when coming inside and leaving. When walking a pup, I always ensure their harness/collar is on correctly and have high reward treats/toys to ensure focus stays on me if there are distractions. I never overwhelm an animal and understand they take time to warm up, especially when it is my first time meeting them.

“Andrhu is so great with our girls! He plays so well with our social dog so that she is worn out and happy when we get home. For our shy dog, he gives gentle attention and praise, working to form a bond of trust. He was also so thoughtful to stow our Amazon delivery safely out of sight. He really is the best!”
“Oh my goodness. What a great human. Emilia was so patient, sitting with my shy dog before going on the walks and she warmed up so well after the patience. I got videos and pictures. Emilia went above and beyond, so grateful!!”
“I had a family emergency and had to leave town ASAP, Ivy without hesitation stepped up and made sure Bear had his walks and was taken care of. I cannot thank Ivy enough for helping me out on such short notice during such a stressful time. She is truly the best!”

About: Have always had animals growing up and have continued loving to be surrounded by them, in the person that will see an animal while running errands and want to love on them. I currently have 3 kitties, 1 large breed puppy and would love to help take care of others while they are working or out of town. I am reliable and flexible! Whether just walking, dropping in to feed, water or cleaning up little boxes or messes I am willing to make you feel confident in taking the time to travel to see family or just get to work. I also willing to water plants and gather mail if needed too. Animals deserve the best! Currently have a 7.5 month old German Shepherd puppy that I take 3-5 times to the dog park in mornings and 3 cats that are just trying to survive puppy life :) My schedule is not set fully and am pretty flexible. I never want to mess up your pets routine so if my schedule doesn’t work for your pets, it is completely understandable. I will always treat your pets as I would treat my own and same with your home. I don’t want you to have to worry about others realizing your out of town so will bring in packages and try my best to make appearances so they know someone is there.
“Sophia's availability and reliability are excellent! I can tell she genuinely cares about and enjoys working with animals. Our dogs are like family to us and we appreciate sitters like Sophia who treat them as such.”
About: I've had dogs ever since I was little and I've loved all of their personalities. I've cared for dogs, cats, rats, fish, birds and snakes. My boyfriend and I are the parents of a little short haired devil of rat terrier. He's definitely kept us on our toes training wise and he is more amusing than he realizes. I am a gentle owner who values the happiness of the pet as well as retaining their learned routines and commands. Potty breaks, walk breaks, and play breaks are important as well as practice in relaxing. Learning their character, joys, and needs are vital to me and I will do everything I can to make your loved one feel cared for and catered to. I’ve moved from Washington to California, and though I work a rather full schedule I am free most weekends. I can be flexible but providing the best quality care for a pet is important. Creating a calm but caring environment is the goal as well as providing stimulation and healthy exercise. I have experience with crate training dogs so that will be a service I can follow through with if your dog has a routine with their kennel. Their normal routine, training, and habits are something I will take care to keep to ensure a calm and familiar experience.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who has been caring for pets since I was a little girl. I grew up in a home that bred yellow labs, and that’s where my love for dogs truly began. Since then, I’ve had the joy of caring for many of my own fur babies over the years—including labs, cats, a husky, golden retriever and more. Today, my husband, our two teens, and I share our home with our sweet golden retriever, Milo, and our cat, Kerplunk—both very loved members of our family. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to care for their pets like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I provide reliable care, lots of affection, and daily updates so you can truly relax and enjoy your time away without worry. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies and give them all the love and attention they deserve! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine! I work from home most of the week, which allows me to give your fur baby plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just extra cuddles, I’m available and present. I do step out of the home on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, but during those times my husband is home and happy to step in to make sure your pet continues to receive consistent care, supervision, and attention. Your pet will also have a friendly golden retriever to play with, providing built-in companionship and extra fun during their stay! Your pet will never feel alone or overlooked—we truly work as a team to provide a safe, loving, and reliable environment! Pet sitting with love! We treat our fur babies like family, and our crew includes golden retriever Milo (almost 3, with plenty of puppy energy!) and kitty Kerplunk. They love cuddling on our beds and couch. Our fenced backyard is a safe spot for pups to play - they'd love to meet yours!

“Darrienne helped me out this week with my daughter’s pup dropping in to check on her and my dog and take them for a walk. She was great with the dogs, superb communication and helpful with checking on the house in case puppy had gotten into things. I would very confidently recommend her to anyone!”
About: My experience consist of taking care of family, member and friends, animals, and typically pet sitting over at their homes. Other than that, I have my own cat who I take care of on a daily basis. I am a teacher looking for some work over the summer, so I will be not as available the next month, but have heavy availability in the summer. I live in a closed gated community that has a dog park, as for my apartment it is on the second floor and nearly impossible for any animal to get out.
About: I've cared for dogs of all sizes. I am reliable and nurturing. I will treat your pet as I would my own. I have experiance with senior and new born care. I currently have open availability week days and weekends. I like to start my mornings early and end my nights early. Happy to help whenever. I have two friendly dogs at home; Arlo a 7 year old Rough Collie and Copper a 12 year Puggle. These guys rule the home. We love to meet new furry friends and play a game of chase or keep away. I have a unfenced yard in a small coldesac neighborhood. Lots of room to safely and freely run around.
“Krysten is amazing! She is so flexible with her schedule and super quick at responding! Plus champ loves her and warmed up right away, now he’s always excited for their weekly walks!”
“Callie is always on time and very professional. I often have schedule changes and have to book last minute or change bookings around last minute and she makes everything work out whenever possible. Always a pleasure to work with.”
“Halle was great! Willing to help us out when we realized last minute that we would need a daily dog walker during our trip. She was prompt, reliable, and trustworthy. Would highly recommend.”
About: I've grown up around dogs since I was 5 and kept them as companions for almost 30 years. I have a calm disposition as well as a natural kinship with most animals and take great care to foster their trust. I have litter trained puppies and raised several animals from youth. I am a retired veteran with free time during the the day between 10 AM and 4PM on weekdays to walk or play with your dogs! I am respectful of the animal's boundaries as well as the owner's wishes and will follow the prescribed activities and rules so that trust is maintained with both pets and humans alike.
About: I have over 25 years experience of hands-on pet experience, caring for animals of all kinds, including dogs, cats, mice, rabbits, hamsters, snakes, and more. My background includes working with rescues, supporting pets as they transition into safe, loving environments with patience and understanding. I also have experience with puppy training, using positive reinforcement to build good manners and confidence. In addition, I provide senior pet care, offering gentle handling, routine support, medication assistance, and extra TLC for aging pets. From energetic puppies to shy rescues, and senior companions, I tailor my care to each pet's unique needs- always treating them like family! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I am already out running errands and going on walks throughout the day and evening, so adding pet visits and dog walks is a natural part and highlight of my schedule. Because I have difficulty sleeping, I'm flexible with early mornings, late nights, and unconventional hours, which allows me to provide care when others may not be available. I genuinely enjoy spending that extra time caring for animals, whether it's a quiet overnight check-in, a midday walk, or an evening visit. I am happy to pet sit in your home, keeping your pet comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining their regular routine. I can also provide walks and visits tailored to your pet's specific schedule, whether that means multiple walks a day, medication times, feeding routines, or extra companionship. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and relaxed- no matter the time of day. When caring for your pets in your home, I follow their normal routine so everything stays calm and familiar. I handle feeding, fresh water, medications, litter boxes or habitat cleaning, and keeping their space tidy. Dogs get walks matched to their energy- potty breaks, longer enrichment walks, or gentle senior strolls-plus playtime and cuddles. Cats and small pets get the right mix of interaction, enrichment, and quiet company (on their terms). If needed, I can also stay overnight to provide extra comfort, companionship,and consistent care. I watch for any changes in mood, behavior, appetite, and I send updates and photos so you can relax while you're away. Happy pets, clean spaces, wagging tails, and purring contentment- no worries, no stress.
“I don’t think Nikki has ever said no to sitting! That’s incredible! She takes my pups out for good walks twice a day (more exercise than they probably get with just me). When I get home everything is always perfect and the dogs are happy. Highly recommend!”

“First time using rover and found Noelle to be a great fit for our 2 bigger dogs. She has years of experience with animals and it shows in her attention to detail and the level of care she provided. We got updates with pictures and videos all through their stay. She took them on walks, they got a chance to play with her own dogs. They came back to us happy and worn out! We will definitely use Noelle again!”
“My dog Cookie was well taken care of. Nikkole listened to my concerns, vet's suggestions, and what works best for my dog, and goes above and beyond! Cookie was so well taken care of in my absence, and he came home so healthy and happy. I will definitely be taking him back and am thankful to her for treating my dog as one of her own.”
“Wilbur’s week-long stay with Charlotte was all around easy! We got video and photo updates that kept us reassured that he was a happy guy during his stay. Charlotte was also very considerate when our travel plans changed. We’d be happy to book with her again next time we travel.”
“Katie was amazing to work with! She and her family took such good care of our dog, we received lots of updates and pictures of her throughout her time there. Highly recommend and we'll 100% be using her going forward!”
“Cindy was great with my dog! I felt confident and comfortable leaving him with her at her house. She did well to send photos and updates as time went on and was clear in her communication throughout the whole experience. I highly recommend Cindy for pet sitting!!”
“I was a little nervous leaving my dog with someone new, but Kristin was wonderful. She kept me updated with photos, which I really appreciated, and it was obvious my dog was having a great time. One of her favorite things is playing in water, so seeing all the fun she had made me so happy. She came home tired and happy, and I could tell she had been well cared for.”
“Total peace of mind while away! We were instantly relieved when our highly energetic pup immediately took to Keri and Kerry's family, yard and Beau :) This lovely family puts you at ease with their calm demeanor and years of knowledge and experience with dogs (including active puppies). They are exceptionally intuitive with new and old dogs. Our pup was so well exercised, daily, that it allayed our usual concerns of him getting into mischief. Keri and Kerry were always quick to respond and kept us informed daily. Communication was clear and easy. He was so well cared for that we were genuinely and regularly blown away when we received the pics of him laying contentedly, relaxing and getting pets and love from this wonderful family! Their love and ability to quickly identify and address your dog's needs will bring you the peace of mind needed to enjoy your time away. We will book with them from now on! Thank you Keri and Kerry!”
“Kristine was wonderful. She was friendly and very attentive to Mina and Kodi. We adopted both dogs the end of September, and I was worried about leaving them so soon because they were both still adjusting, but both dogs took to her almost immediately. She sent me pictures every day and I could see that they were very comfortable. I will definitely use her again and will recommend her to my family and friends.”
“Roger is a wonderful River sitter! He took our dogs last minute and sent us picture updates daily. Our dogs looked so happy in his backyard, running around and playing with pals. Thank you Roger!!”
“The BEST. We had our regular sitter cancel last Minute due to a family emergency which is understandable and we thought we wouldn’t be able to find a sitter last minute nonetheless a holiday weekend and Caitlyn and Andrew came through in the last hr to save our family trip. They provided multiple pictures and videos every couple hrs, updates a couple times a day , we felt very comfortable and relieved that we left our Luka with them . I will be using them again and I recommend to anyone.”
“Kristine and her partner were seriously the best!! They took such good care of West while I was away on my work trip. I have the worst anxiety and they sent pictures/updates the whole entire time! The dogs that were with them also were the best to West. I would highly, highly recommend them for watching your fur children! ❤️”
“We had a great experience with them! Our dog can be a bit difficult to handle at times, but they were able to care for him with patience and understanding. We really appreciate their help and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“Danny had a great time with Elizabeth. Danny is shy so she took the time to let Him relax and settle at his own pace. I will definitely have her sit for Danny again”
“Katie was easy to communicate with, she sent pictures and updates of our dogs. We took a cruise and loved the updates when we came into ports. When we picked our dogs up they were happy to see us but they would have stayed as well. We assume they appreciated the care and being with other dogs. I would highly recommend Katie.”
“The most important thing for us is to know our elderly dog is safe, with people who understand an older dog and her needs. Mariko is that person! Millie is content, and well taken care of which gives us peace of mind when we are away. Much better than leaving her in a kennel.”
