“Rachel was very easy to communicate with and great with our kitty! Leaving a pet in the hands of stranger while on vacation can be scary but Rachel helped alleviate our worries with her clear and apparent love for animals! Would definitely recommend 10/10.”

“This was our first time using Rover so we were very nervous about having a stranger taking care of our little girl. Rossana was so kinda and totally understood all of our anxiety. It gave us such peace of mind to receive so many pictures of our cat every day. We will definitely use Rossana again in the future!”
“Super kind and responsive! Our cat tomato is usually pretty nervous around strangers but she was able to come out of hiding for him. Overall fantastic vibe and would have him sit our kitties again!”
“Katherine was amazing! She went above and beyond to spend time with my rascally cat, Finn. We had some trouble with getting her into the building and she was extremely patient and understanding while we sorted everything out. Thanks Katherine!”
“Maria was a delight dropping in to our apartment to take care of my cat. She was super prompt and communicative -- my (non-friendly) cat loved her! Thank you, Maria! I appreciate all you did to make our first Rover experience a great one.”

About: Hi! I am a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages and energy levels. I’ve grown up with labs and labradoodles who I miss dearly. I truly love being around animals and always find myself helping out with friends’ pet needs. Whether it’s a slow stroll for an older dog or an energetic adventure with a pup, I adapt to each dog’s unique needs. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely love bonding with animals. I’ve cared for dogs with special diets, anxiety and medication needs. I always prioritize safety, comfort, and lots of love <3 I make my own work schedule and can accommodate pretty much any time to care for your pup so long as my calendar is open. Just shoot me a message! I adapt to each pet’s routine and needs to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Whether that means sticking to specific feeding times, giving meds, extra playtime, or just lots of calm companionship—I’m happy to follow your instructions closely. I’m flexible, respectful of your space, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe and loved while you’re away.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a young teenager, but my love for animals started much earlier—I grew up with dogs starting at age six. From puppy training to senior care, I’ve had hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. Now, as a proud dog mom to my own friendly and playful golden retriever, I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and truly cared for. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, whether I’m taking them on a walk, stopping by for a visit, or welcoming them into my home for boarding. Your dog’s comfort and well-being are my top priorities, and I’ll always go the extra mile to make sure they feel loved while you’re away. I have a very flexible work-from-home schedule, which means I’m around throughout the day to care for your dog—whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I love exercising my own dog regularly and would be thrilled to include your pup in our daily routine! Between meetings, I’m often outside throwing a ball, going for a neighborhood walk, or just hanging out in the yard. I’m available most weekdays and select weekends for boarding, walks, and drop-in visits. Let’s find a time that works for you and give your dog a happy, active day! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and dog-friendly home with a fully fenced yard—perfect for supervised play and outdoor time. My one-year-old golden retriever is friendly, playful, and loves having a buddy to run around with. That said, I always take time to ensure all dogs are comfortable with each other before encouraging play. If your pup prefers solo time or needs a break, I’m more than happy to separate the dogs or crate your dog if that’s part of their routine. I’m experienced with a variety of temperaments and energy levels, and I’m always paying close attention to body language and behavior to make sure everyone feels safe and happy. Inside, dogs have access to cozy lounging spots, fresh water at all times, and lots of attention throughout the day. I stick to your feeding and potty routines as closely as possible and will happily administer any medications or follow special instructions you provide. Whether your dog is here for a walk, a drop-in, or an overnight stay, I treat them like family and keep you updated with messages, photos, and videos so you can feel confident they’re in great hands.

Stephanie M.
“Stephanie and Amir did an amazing job watching our chihuahua mix Frankie! Initially I was nervous because we had found Steph just two days before a camping trip where we would have minimal phone service and the thought of leaving Frankie with someone new while we were off the grid freaked me out. BUT it turns out I didn't need to worry at all. Steph and Amir came over to our house to introduce themselves and to meet Frankie the night before we left so that she was completely comfortable when we dropped her off. We received text and photo updates the entire time we were gone and we could tell they treated her like she was their own dog. ALL the cuddles and walks and pets! Steph and Amir were responsible, experienced, and patient (with both dog and owner...I definitely went overboard with the instructions, but they were totally compassionate!). I'm grateful to have found them and recommend them to anyone who wants to take a worry-free vacation knowing their dog is in good hands.”
