“Sansa had a great visit with Claudine and her family. Very communicative and great fenced in yard and wonderful golden retriever puppy as playmate. Highly recommend.”


“I cannot say enough great things about Sophia her family and Rex! Communication was always excellent and my dog had a blast, with them. He went on nature walks and got plenty of love and playtime. Also, their dog Rex is the BEST boy with an amazing, temperament. He’s a sweetheart, who loves belly rubs and is my dog’s new, best friend. Highly recommended!”


“Calvin is the best pet sitter, truly! I received so many pics and updates throughout the weekend. I genuinely felt very safe leaving my girl with him over the weekend. I couldn’t recommend him enough and will definitely get in touch the next time we need a sitter!!”


“Tomoe and her family took great care of our Max and sent lots of pics and videos of him enjoying himself and getting lots of cuddles! We will definitely use her again when we need a sitter”


“Sara and her kids were wonderful with our dog Rosie over the weekend! She was easy to communicate with and sent pictures and updates throughout Rosie’s stay. Rosie came back happy and tired. We will definitely rebook with Sara for our next trip!”



“Wanda seemed really kind and caring from the second Koda met her! She took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and it seems like he had a great time playing with Wanda’s pup, Casey. It would be nice if Wanda provided more daily updates, I had to ask a few times to see how he was doing. Overall, Wanda seems like a very kind and reliable sitter.”



“Another great stay with Delayni. First great sign was when our dog eagerly sprinted into Delayni’s place at drop off. He clearly regarded it as a happy place. He was relaxed at pick up and went right back into his normal routines when he got home. Delayni is a GREAT communicator and gives us complete confidence with every interaction and stay. Thabk you (again)!”


“Sarah is the best and so great with our Piper! Piper always loves to visit Sarah's family and we are completely confident that Piper's in safe, loving hands at Sarah's place. Thank you, Sarah!”


“Alan and Ying took care of our dog like their own. From drop off to pickup everything was smooth and easy to communicate. We were updated daily with messages, photos and videos. We cannot be more then happy and will definitely leave our dog with them again.”


“Anna is the best sitter you could ever ask for. You can walk away with a confidence that your pet is in the safest hands. She took our dog around the city and took incredible care of him. She is extremely thorough and prompt in her communication. She is also a great photographer and be ready to get amazing pics of your pet.”


“Lexi had a great experience with Jessie and family! They were great hosts and treated Lexi with much care and love. I will reach out again next time we need a sitter for Lexi. Mucho thanks!”


“Dana took great care of Hodu for us and we’re very grateful. One note is that we would have loved to get updates and photos from him without having to ask for them, but overall he was a good sitter. Happy to have gone with him!”


“Jessie was absolutely wonderful with our dog Storm! She was very communicative and friendly. We did a meet and greet and she made sure all of our questions were answered prior to Storms stay. Storm had plenty of walks and pets during her stay; she was well cared for!”


“Our dog, Pepper, had such a great time with Chris and his family. They took excellent care of her and sent lots of videos and pictures. Pepper got lots of walks and play in. I doubt she was ever bored. They treated her like family. I highly recommend Chris for any Rover services.”


“I used Rover for the first time time with Emily and she kept me updated with pictures of my Lyla multiple times a day. She made me feel so reinsured and had a great fenced in yard for the dogs to roam. She even let my Lyla sleep with her which was so sweet! Thank you so much Emily!”


“Qiang took very good care of my dog for 4 days while I was gone. He sent me a photo every day and was very good about communicating and responding to any questions I had.”



About: I have experience with most small and medium breeds of dogs, from Italian Greyhounds (my own!) to Australian Shepherds, Daushaunds, Border Collies, Labs, Lab/Pit Bull mixes, and other wonderful dogs which don't fall into a single breed. I have cared for my family's Italian Greyhounds for 30 years, most recently nursing my dog back to health when he was using a feeding tube and multiple medications after surgery. He is now healthier than ever and free of all meds and treatments! I'm happy to walk your dog in your neighborhood area, or let them play in my fully fenced yard. I am able to assist with senior dogs and am able to administer oral medications. If your dogs come over for daycare, they will be loved and cuddled, have access to toys, and have the option to play with two highly socialized iggies (Italian Greyhounds). I work from home as an independent art curator, so this gives me the ability to be quite flexible in scheduling and in adapting to provide the best care for your dog. I work from home as an independent art curator, so this gives me the ability to be quite flexible in scheduling and in adapting to provide the best care for your dog. Your dog(s) will get lots of cuddles and scratches/massage (whatever they like!), as there are always dogs surrounding me whenever I am sitting. Outside time can be leash walking around the neighborhood or playing in the fenced yard, or leash walking in the unfenced portion of the yard. We can also go to a dog park if that’s their jam. Treat time (treats approved by you, their person) usually happens after going potty or as a treat between meals. For sleeping, I’ll try to replicate what they are used to at home, whether that is sleeping in their own bed on the floor, sleeping in human bed with their people, or sleeping in a bed in a crate (I have extra crates and beds). Upon arrival, they will be introduced to my well-adjusted Italian Greyhounds individually so as to make sure everyone is comfortable.

“This was Benny's first stay with Paula and it was right in the middle of a brutal heatwave. Knowing that she usually takes the dogs on outings to parks or the grounds of some suburban public buildings, I was concerned about him overheating. Paula's daily photos allayed those fears since she made sure there was plenty of shade and plenty of water. Her children really help out.”


“Alix was absolutely amazing and I am so thankful I chose her to watch Clark for the weekend! She was so flexible and responsive. I booked her very last minute but she had no problem taking Clark in and watching him! She sent amazing updates throughout the weekend so I always knew how Clark was doing. She went above and beyond for Clark and when I picked him up he was the happiest pup ever! Will definitely be booking with Alix again!!!”


“This was our second time working with Jess, and Duke was happy as can be. We loved the photos of Duke interacting with the other dogs and having a great time. Won't hesitate to have Jess watch Duke again.”
