About: I've been a chorkie mom for 15 years and I'm happy to say Pinky is still going strong! I have 6 years of experience taking care of 2-3 dogs at a time for family and friends, including senior dogs who require a little more care and affection. I love spending any free time I have playing with and caring for animals. I'm a part-time registered nurse. During my off days, I am available to play and care with your fur babies. I am also available for boarding during the week and on weekends but will have to be notified ahead of time. Safety is my priority for pinky which will be the same for your dog. Spacious backyard with cameras surrounding the property. Dogs will not be left unattended at any moment while outside. Out of an abundance of caution, dogs in my care will get an apple air tag attached to their collar. Kitchen counter tops and table will be cleared during their stay to avoid anything potentially harmful.
“Susan was very attentive and took good care of my dog. She had a blast on her big yard and fenced, and loved playing with others dogs. It was my first experience with Rover and I was preoccupied but my dog loved. And I get to enjoy my trip with no worries.”
About: I grew up with a yellow lab that I cared for throughout my childhood. I now have 2 amazing rescue labs Ellie and Bobby that get along really well with other dogs. I also volunteer with Companion Pet Rescue. I am flexible with my schedule on the weekends and will try my best to accommodate your needs. Just let me know what services you are looking for and I will confirm my availability. I have a fenced in yard which my dogs love to play in. I also take them for walks, runs, or hikes! My home is very clean and quiet. Making it a safe space for your pets that you can feel comfortable leaving them.
“Emmet had a wonderful stay at Luci's! Luci took great care of him - she was very attentive and sent lots of updates. Emmet also really enjoyed playing with his new friend Cacao. Thanks Luci!”
“This was the first time we had someone watch CoCo outside of our house and I wasn’t sure how she would be. We met with Rich a couple of days before and he was great. It was just the socialization she needed. Rich sent a bunch of pictures while she was there and it made me feel good seeing the smile on her face. We will definitely bring her back!”
“Nicole was great with our 2 French bulldogs! She took great care of them, and they loved her dog too! I’d absolutely recommend Nicole if you need to board your dog.”
“Leviena was absolutely wonderful. Never before have I received so many texts and photos from a sitter describing how (good) my dog was doing. Playing games, walking the neighborhood, cuddling on the couch. My dog just fit in naturally with her and her family. We felt so comfortable leaving her there that we extended our overnight trip with a day and Leviena was very flexible and happy to accommodate. Will definitely be back!”
“I really appreciated the care my precious dog received. I was a last minute holiday booking. Nina was shown warmth, flexibility and compassion. This was visible through the pictures I received daily, videos and the puppy report cards. I will absolutely book again!”
“I felt totally comfortable leaving my dog with Katie! She did a great job reassuring me that my dog would do fine and she would text me if there were any issues. She also sent me a picture throughout the day. I would definitely go to her again.”
“Jayme really helped us out with watching Diesel when we had to go away for a long weekend for a family wedding. I felt very comfortable knowing that Diesel was in good hands and that he had a yard to play around with. Jayme is very kind and sent several pictures of Diesel. Knowing that he was in someone’s loving home and not in a boarding facility put me at ease. I would recommend Jayme without hesitation for anyone who wants their dog to have a home away from home!”
“OMG. Isabel was amazing!!!!! There’s really just not much else to say, she was absolutely AMAZING. I have not 1 but 2 pups (that go everywhere with me) so that definitely heightened my worries of leaving them with someone I did not know. But, from the moment I met her at the meet & greet I just knew I was making the right choice and that my dogs would be safe. She truly cares about these animals and it really shows. Not only does she care but she is super smart and really knows what she is doing. Always one step ahead & ensuring their safety. I can’t thank her enough. I now look forward to planning trips knowing I have her! ?”
“Our dog loves staying with Jieun! She is very professional and communicates in a timely manner both before and during visits, but most of all we know our dog is in great hands.”
“Annmarie was incredibly flexible and communicative with everything! Zoe loved her and there was never a moment we weren’t happy with our decision to trust Annmarie with our girl!”
About: I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable dog lover who works from home, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I’m patient, attentive to each dog’s individual needs, and committed to making every pup feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Since I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have flexibility for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. I provide attentive, loving care with regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. My home also has a secure, fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time.
About: I have had pets since I was a baby. I had two rabbits who I took care of during my childhood, such as feeding and brushing. When I was around 10 years old we adopted my current dog, who I walk and play with frequently. My family often petsits other animals as well, mostly dogs. I have helped with catering to these dogs needs since I was 9 and have always loved getting the opportunity to take care of them! These experiences have taught me the responsibility necessary to actually take care of animals. I am available to pet sit the entire week except on Mondays. I am a very flexible person and do not mind cancellations or late notices. I have a large yard my dog loves to play in, along with The Canal Trail as a 2 minute walk away from my house. I often take toys from our large toy box to go out into the yard and play with him.

I’ve left my Lubear (55lb Kintamani Mix Dog) with Yajaira multiple times and she was nothing but the best. She took care of my baby girl like she was her own. She was very responsive to my questions and let me know updates if I mentioned anything worrying about my baby. Forever will continue to book her! 1000% recommend.
Victoria did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Kujo! She made sure all the pets were safe, gave him plenty of love and attention, and treated him like one of her own. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. I highly recommend Victoria to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets!
This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! She took wonderful care of my dog, kept me updated with messages, and gave me complete peace of mind. She was also incredibly accommodating when I realized I had forgotten to include an extra day on my original booking, and she made the process so easy. On top of that, she patiently helped me navigate the Rover app as a first-time user, which I really appreciated. Kind, reliable, and communicative—I would absolutely book with her again!
