“Marcella is awesome she is a very caring and nurturing individual! She is really great with animals. I will definitely be using her in the future for all my animals! Thank you so much Marcella! 😊”
About: I have taken care of many dogs. I used to have a Samoyed and a multipoo myself for many years previously. I love how affectionate dogs are. I am great at sticking to feeding schedules. I enjoy petting and playing with a dog kindly and gently. I have a big backyard that is fenced where a dog can run and play safely. I work part time, not everyday, and just a few hours a day, so I am a great companion to your sweet lovable pet. I am gentle, caring, loving, warm hearted. I am very empathetic to pets because they are loving beings. I will often take them for bathroom breaks, pet, and feed on schedule. I want the pet to feel safe and happy and the owner to relax and enjoy their time away. I have a fenced backyard. I accept cats or small dogs only. The pet will have space to run and play. I am gentle with my voice and my affection to the pet. I have a big heart and am also good at keeping a feeding schedule. I am warm hearted and responsible.
“Mariia was amazing to work with and treated our pup with love and care. We had peace of mind while on vacation with Mariia sending us pictures and videos of our pup. She was also very engaged when it came to administering medication and keeping us informed of our pup. Would totally come back for the next time and wholeheartedly recommend her. Thanks Mariia”
“What a wonderful family! Daisy was well cared for and loved on. I appreciate all the videos and great communication during Daisy's stay. Daisy enjoyed her time. Looking forward to her next stay.”
About: I’m one of those people that dogs are drawn to and I love animals; dogs, cats, horses. I give shots, meds, and have rescued, trained, rehabilitated and rehomed both dogs and horses. I am available daily, weekends, holidays to devote my time to caring for animals; I prefer full time employment with animals rather than people; dogs are my happy place. I can walk dogs in my safe neighborhood and always clean up after; my very large studio can accomodate up to 3 dogs,my couch, bed, is their couch and bed.

“Our Husky, Rory, spent over a week with Stephen, Jacque and Jackson. They provided daily updates with photos which really put our minds at ease knowing the she was well cared for and she was very happy to be there. Based on the constant contact and her reaction when picking her up, they will definitely be top of our list for recurring stays!”
“Maryam was fantastic with Comet! Super reliable, communicative, and incredibly sweet. It’s such a relief finding someone you can trust completely with your dog. Comet had a great time and we will definitely be repeat clients!”
“Julieth took great care of Prunella and sent lots of pics and videos during her stay. Her other dogs were sweet and well behaved. She gave her a bath before sending her home. Highly recommend!”
“We could not be more thrilled with April and her care for our Lulu. Everything about our experience with April exceeded my expectations in every way. She is kind, warm, and easy to talk with, while being professional and clear. She sent us tons of photos of Lulu throughout the day and it was clear April treated our Lulu like a member of the family. I could not be more pleased with April’s attention to detail but also just her overall demeanor. I would feel very at peace leaving our Lulu in her care going forward!! She is the best!!!”
“Mary was great with my dog. He doesn’t like everyone, who does? Lol But he did great with Mary and their dog. I couldn’t have asked for more, really. He’s very active and they let him run 2x a day plus he got to cool off in their pool. If you’re concerned about leaving your dog, choose Mary, it will make you feel good every time you go away:)”
About: I have experience in the veterinary field through a veterinary science program that prepared me for pre-veterinary studies. I volunteered over 40 hours with the Chesterfield Humane Society (Virginia) as well with kennel cleaning, walking and play, administering medicine, etc. I acquired skills such as grooming, daily care to include feeding and walking, neonatal care, noticing problems and signs of distress, medicinal administration techniques, and I even have a yorkipoo and shihpoo of my own. My yorkipoo is 16 years old. I’m very comfortable with dogs and I consider mine my furry, fluffy babies. I know how important your pets are, so I treat them how I would want mine to be treated when I need pet care. I mostly work from home and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to spend a significant amount of time with pets throughout the day. I can provide daycare, walks, drop-ins, and overnight care. I have a senior 17-year-old Yorkipoo, so my apartment is already safety-proofed and designed with pets in mind. My home has hardwood floors so messes are easy to solve, and I prioritize a calm, clean, secure environment.
“Anebelle and Ben were amazing. They accommodated tedious different diet needs of our two dogs. They treated our dogs like their own; cuddling with them in bed, taking them on long walks, and keeping them entertained through out. Annabelle and Ben’s kids also made our dogs feel at home and showered them with affection. Annabelle also made sure to send daily updates with pictures and videos, allowing us to enjoy our vacation guilt-free. Needless to say, Annabelle and Ben will be our go to”
“Almira went above and beyond in caring for our dog, Rocky! It was clear she treated him like a member of her own family. She provided regular updates, tons of love, and made sure he felt completely at home. Knowing he was in such kind and capable hands gave us total peace of mind. I’m so grateful for her and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“it was an absolute pleasure, leaving our dog with Nicola!!! He was incredibly responsible and caring. The entire time we felt comfortable and were at ease with our dog being looked after. We can’t wait till the next time we need a sitter, and we will call Nicola immediately. Literally he is the best we’ve ever used on Rover”
About: I’ve always loved cats and feel very comfortable caring for them. I’m patient, gentle, responsible, and attentive to each cat’s personality and needs. I’ll make sure your cat feels safe, loved, well-fed, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m also happy to play with them, give them attention, and keep you updated with photos. I only work for about four hours in the evenings on Fridays and Saturdays. The rest of the week, I have plenty of time to spend with your pets and give them lots of attention, care, and company. I provide a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for pets. I always follow the owner’s instructions, including feeding schedules and daily routines. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and playtime, and I’ll keep you updated with photos while you’re away.

This was our first time leaving Ginger with anyone for an extended period — almost a week — and we were nervous going in. Armitee put us completely at ease. She sent regular updates with photos, treated Ginger like her own dog, and Ginger came home happy and relaxed. We'll definitely be booking with her again.
Paola responded quickly before, during, and after our week away. She sent fun photos and was always very reassuring about caring for our 4 month old puppy. Teresa is loving, easy going about puppy issues, and keen to follow all our current care schedules and training. Our little guy was happy and clearly well cared for when we picked him up. We will definitely be repeat customers!
To say they go above and beyond is not enough. Stanislava and Mario have always been extremely flexible when travel plans change, and very accommodating of our rescue dog’s many needs. They are incredibly kind and understanding, both to dogs and humans and, as always, we recommend them 1000 percent to anyone looking for a sitter.
Khrystyna and her son took wonderful care of Chapo! He looked genuinely happy and relaxed in the photos and updates she sent, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Drop-off and pick-up were both smooth and easy. We’d definitely book with Khrystyna again!
Magenka W. provided a loving and safe stay for my elderly dachshund mix, who has several serious health conditions. Olive has collapsing trachea, Cushing's disease and spinal issues, and the collapsing trachea becomes problematic when she is stressed. Because Magenka gave Olive such good care, none of those conditions caused her problems. Olive is also very picky and wary of anyone but me, but when I picked her up on the last day of her stay with Magenka, she seemed reluctant to leave Magenka's side. Magenka had sent me pictures and texts throughout Olive's stay, so I didn't worry about Olive and was able to enjoy my family vacation. I heartily recommend Magenka as a caregiver of my beloved Olive!
Cynthia was so enthusiastic about caring for Willy and wasn’t worried about his medication requirements (including applying eye ointment) at all. Willy - who is a pro with Rover stays - seems to have taken on this new family with ease. We will definitely use Cynthia’s service in the future.
We had such a great experience with Kalani and Tomoko. They took great care of our dog summer when we were on a trip and truly made summer feel at home by not only caring for her but also spending time playing and lounging with her. Tomoko and Kalani were very communicative and sent us pictures and videos of summer (where she looked so happy) and talked to us when there were potential health concerns. I am so grateful of their incredible care of summer and would 1000% recommend them to anyone who loves their dogs.
Pramodh took excellent care of our dog Max while we were away. He kept us updated regularly with messages and photos, which gave us real peace of mind. It was clear that he treated Max like part of his own family. Max looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We really appreciated the attention, responsibility, and kindness Pramodh showed. I would absolutely trust him again and highly recommend him. Thank you, Pramodh!
Silvana and her family took great care of Josi while we were away for the week. They have an awesome setup, including a large backyard that I’m sure the dogs love. We really appreciated their attention to detail and how thoughtfully they looked after Josi. We forgot to bring her collar, and they kindly provided a spare one during her stay, you can tell they genuinely care. Thank you!
