“Our dog hadn't been to a sitter in years. He had a great time and looks forward to a return visit with his new friends. Christie was great at keeping us updated with photos and updates.”

“I am completely at ease when we leave our german shorthair pointer with this family. We get plenty of updates and it looks like Daisy gets plenty of playtime with their pet and plenty of attention from the humans. The second time we brought her there she ran right up to the house like she remembered the good memories she made there the last time.”

“I had to leave town last weekend and decided to see what boarding my dog Ding with somebody from Rover might be like. I hit the jackpot when I decided to reach out to Roman and Suzanne. Right from the get go they were extremely responsive and had the answers to all my questions. And so friendly! We did a quick meet and greet at their home and I instantly knew I’d be trusting my guy with them. Just really wonderful people and they clearly love the animals they take care of. And they sure took care of mine! I got lots of pictures and updates over the weekend, and Ding looked so happy in all of them. He really hit it off with their dog Sonic! The weekend flew by and after an easy pickup (they really made everything so easy!) Ding and I were back home. He totally crashed out after a fun weekend with his new friends. Cant recommend Roman and Suzanne and family enough! I’ll definitely be reaching out to for another upcoming weekend trip :) Thanks so much!”

“Kailee and her family are so caring and compassionate, and I am so glad our pup was with them. Our puppy had a medical issue while we were away, and Kailee immediately jumped into action, took her to the vet, and gave her the prescribed medication and care she needed. We are extremely grateful our doggie was in such caring hands and was so well looked after. Thank you Kailee for making sure she was ok!”

“This was mavericks second time with Jayme and it was so nice to see him run right in and make himself at home! He got lots of outside time and she does a great job sending me updates!”

“Jenn was awesome! From the meet & greet to the weekend boarding. I was so nervous as it was our first time having to board our Aussiedoodle Jax. Jenn made sure to send us pictures & videos multiple times per day. It was such an added bonus to see our puppy just having the best time! She had toys & even took him swimming! I know Jax had a great time, he was wore out & sleeping as soon as we got home. She was really understanding & listening when I brought up his food allergies. I will continue using her for boarding & recommending her to our friends with dogs that may need it.”

“Amber was absolutely phenomenal with my kitty! This was my first time using Rover and I was definitely nervous dropping off my cat with someone, but Amber eased any stress I had. She sent lots of photos and videos and kept me updated throughout the days while I was gone. She put out all of the toys that I brought for her and I could tell that she really took the time to keep my cat entertained :) I highly recommend Amber for any pet sitting needs! I will definitely be rebooking for my next vacation!”


“This was the first time we split our dogs up by only taking one of them with us. We were nervous that the one we left would feel abandoned. Not a problem at all. Francis always takes such good care of our dogs, and they are so happy there.”

“Rachel and Jason were great! They were happy to arrange a meet and greet ahead of time to make sure Harvey would be ok (more like we’d be Ok) while we were gone. Got a few updates during our week long vacation and those certainly were nice to get! Will definitely book with them again!”
“Naomi and John took excellent care of our dog Franny! We received daily updates with photos, which we looked forward too every day of our trip. It was great that Franny had another dog to play with. We appreciated knowing she was relaxed and getting plenty of attention while we were away. We will absolutely be booking with Naomi again the next time we need boarding!”

“Pam always take awesome care of Mila and we feel at ease knowing Mila is living her best life. Extra big shout out to Pam for being flexible on our recent stay. The morning of pickup, I had to take my wife to the ER and Pam didn’t even hesitate and let Mila stay over until we got my wife taken care. She is great to work with.”

“I had such a great experience with Sylvia! She was very attentive, kept me updated with pictures and videos, and was flexible with timing. She even took my dog to the beach and went above and beyond to make sure she was happy and well cared for. My pup came home clean, loved, and spoiled. She was so sweet to my dog, and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“SO so grateful to have found both Jacob and his wife through Rover - I think I suffer from far worse separation anxiety being away from my dog than she does being away from me (?) however, after meeting these two and their own four rescue dogs during a pre-boarding meet and greet, I had absolutely no worries that she would be in great hands. They were both SO kind, communicative, and welcoming. Their genuine compassion and love for dogs was immediately obvious, as was the fact that they both possess thorough knowledge of canine care and behavior. Wrigley even immediately recognized the house when I dropped her off and was so excited for her stay - that and the consistent updates/photos/communication gave me SUCH peace of mind and I will absolutely be reaching out for any future dog sitting needs. Thank you both SO much!!”

About: I’ve been responsible for friends and family’s pets since roughly 16, more recently cats in the last 4 years. Plenty of experience all the way from small skittish beagles to large reactive pit mix’s. The key is patience and that’s one thing I can promise with your pet, understanding and dealing with different breeds, ages, sizes, behaviors and sometimes even disabilities/health concerns (we love em all). Also have experience with cats, all the way to senior cats with disabilities/health concerns (hearing & kidney failure) to fat cats with spicy attitude, I would like to say I have a plethora of different experience to care for your pet. Lastly, I think I would be a great sitter by being patient and simply understanding what pets mean to people! I do work full time in office but have work from home flexibility, as well as I pick my hours so can be available if needed. I prefer boarding on the weekends but can be available during the week! I can be available to let your dog out every 2 hours if needed, as well as give medication, feed them, and play with them as well. I live in a 1BR Deluxe duplex, have half of the first floor house to myself, so ample room for another or two. Do have liter box, as well as enough space for another if needed. As well as enough space for a dog crate and their favorite toys, food and treats :) My young pit mix has plenty of space shared with Gibby my cat, but they always choose to lay on the same bed together !
“Kim sent us pictures everyday helping us to see our pets interacting with the family and their dogs. Her communication helped us enjoy our vacation without worry and I am quite sure my two labradors had a fun vacation as well. When we came home I am sure my dogs missed their new friends. Thank you so much Kim and family!”

“Thank you Megan for being a wonderful dog sitter for Coco! I was worried about leaving her for the first time and you eased my concerns very quickly on the phone. Appreciate all the pictures and text while we were away. That helped us know she was happy & being well taken care of with walks and snuggle time. I will highly recommend you to my friends & anyone looking for a sweet dog sitter (without pets of her own). Again a huge thank you! We will be in touch in a few weeks to schedule another over night stay for Coco. Karen”

“Raluca is so great and sweet! She is very communicative and timely. She also sends pictures of my dog while I’m away which I absolutely love. My dog always has a blast at her house! I definitely recommend.”

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Wayland home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Wayland.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Wayland sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.
