Cheri has been great with dog sitting Luella. She is very conscientious about the care she provides for my puppy. I was having a hard time looking for a dog sitter and I am very encouraged that I found Cheri through Rover. Thank you for being a great sitter for my precious girl 🐶😊

About: Hi, I’m Susan, a lifelong dog lover with over 40 years of experience caring for pups of all kinds and ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I offer safe, loving in-home dog boarding for small breeds (30 lbs and under), with a special affection for terriers. Whether your dog is staying for a night or a full week, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and part of the family. Caring for dogs is a natural and joyful part of my daily life. Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to structure my day around the needs of the dogs in my care. My routine includes regular walks, indoor and outdoor play sessions, and lots of cuddle time. Whether we’re tossing a ball in the living room, enjoying a quiet break together, or following a familiar feeding schedule, I strive to make each dog feel safe, loved, and truly at home. Weekends follow the same routine, so your pup will enjoy a calm, consistent environment every day of the week. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, secure, and pet-friendly home where every pup is treated like family. I closely supervise all interactions—especially during introductions—and keep the environment low-stress by hosting no more than one or two dogs at a time. My own dog, Isla, a friendly, well-socialized two-year-old West Highland Terrier, offers wonderful canine companionship and helps other dogs feel welcome. You can trust that your dog will be in attentive, experienced, and loving hands throughout their stay.

Michelle is great! She was able to take Kaia last minute. This is the second time Kaia stays with her and she loves her, she always comes very happy from her day sitting. Kaia had a little accident where she hurt her nail playing (nothing serious). And Michelle texted us ASAP to let us know what happened and sent pictures showing Kaia was ok and took care of her, which we appreciate a lot.

About: Hi, I’m Victoria! My days are spent at home working on my sewing projects, so your dog will get plenty of time, love, and attention. You can expect your fur baby to get multiple walks and we can visit the dog park if they enjoy it. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities and I’m always focused on keeping them safe and comfortable. My dog Lito will be here too. Lito is a 3 legged Bos-Chi who has no idea he’s missing a leg. He’s friendly, used to being around other dogs, and up to date on all vet visits and vaccines. I make sure to manage their space carefully, no feeding close together and they’re separated by a gate when I’m not home. Your dog will be treated just like my own and loved every step of the way. I currently am home full time but do a shop and deliver service. I create my own schedule which lets me come home often to check on my dog and take him out. I am home most of the day. When caring for dogs in my home, safety always comes first. My dog, Lito, will be here too. He’s friendly, used to being around other dogs, and fully up to date on all vet visits and vaccines. I’m careful about how dogs interact and make sure everyone stays comfortable. I don’t feed dogs near each other or give out treats too close together, and I never leave bones or toys lying around that could cause issues. When I’m not home, the dogs are separated by a gate for everyone’s safety. I keep a calm, clean, and structured environment so each dog feels secure and cared for.

About: My love for dogs started when I first set eyes on my friend's baby golden doodle. Since then, I’ve had the joy of raising three furry irresistible pals - Latte, Toro, Miso. They’re basically “I’m gonna die from cuteness” level! I believe every pup deserves extra care and attention. My motto? No paw is left behind! I work from home so I'm pretty flexible and will be around to keep your buddy company. I’m an active person who loves taking strolls around the neighborhood and would love a walking buddy. If they wanna play, I’m totally down! Everyone needs a little chill time, even if they’ve got fur. I’d love to meet your furry family member before any service! I know some pets can be a bit shy, myself included. I take only one dog out at a time to ensure their safety and individual needs are fully met. I’ve always preferred one-on-one interactions over group settings, even in my personal life.

About: I’m Tony, a dog lover who will cross the street just to meet a cute pup. I’m a calm, confident, and sensitive caregiver who often hears the phrase, “Wow, my dog has NEVER warmed up to someone that fast!”. My schedule is flexible and I have lots of energy for walking and running your pups! Currently working from home so I have plenty of time to care for your pets and my flexibility can match most schedules! I also do weekends! I have a medium sized apartment for watching dogs where everything is kept very safe for them. No fenced yard but very close to lots of grass and parks for lots of outside enrichment.

About: As a current cat owner and animal lover, I’ve developed a deep understanding of both feline and canine temperaments. My experience has taught me how to read their needs, respond with patience, and offer gentle, consistent care. As a psychology student, I bring a compassionate, attentive, and nurturing approach to pet sitting—always prioritizing emotional safety and comfort. I’m dedicated to creating a welcoming, stress-free environment where pets feel loved and secure. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet companionship, I tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique personality and needs. I currently work part time so I’m mostly available during the week. My schooling is online, this allows me to have an open schedule for pet care. Clean, organized environment , minimizing hazards to curate a safe environment for any pet under my care and supervision. I keep things orderly and under control.

Amalia was a godsend when we were about to have a house full of children and couldn't allow our two medium-sized, slightly nervous dogs to roam free between and among toddlers. We thought we had this covered, but the night before, our sitter fell through. It was such a relief that she could take a booking on short notice. Moreover, when Amalia realized how brief the booking would be, she advised a modification which we accepted. That's the kind of decency and ethical behavior we don't frequently see anymore.

Tarin was amazing & sweet with our two mini schnauzer boys, Apollo and Ares! From the moment we met him, we could tell he genuinely loves what he does. He gave them lots of walks, playtime, and pee/poo breaks, always making sure they had cold water and felt comfortable. What really stood out were his detailed daily updates — full of stories in his full day recap, photos, videos and little moments that made us smile. You can tell he truly pays attention to every detail and cares deeply for the dogs he watches. Apollo and Ares were so relaxed and happy with him. I think they honestly didn’t want to leave! We completely trust Tarin and would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, kind, and super attentive. Thank you so much, Tarin, for treating our boys like your own. They both can’t wait to hang out with you again soon! 🐶💙🐶
