“Callie put me at ease about leaving my furbaby and answered all my questions without hesitation. Her dog Barry is sweet and really laid back. As partners you couldn’t ask for a better pair. Callie sent pics and updates throughout to continue to ease my own anxiety. It’s priceless knowing your furbaby will be loved on while you’re sway. Will definitely book again.”
“Excellent sitter. She was so professional and caring. She walked him she played with him. I got pictures everyday. Bruno got along with her baby. They became good buddies. I can tell Bruno miss Snoop her pet. When I have to go away again I definitely want Myrna to be the sitter. You will feel good about leaving your pet with her”
“Simply fantastic! Jay makes things so easy and less worrisome when we have to leave our beloved furry kids behind. She sends pictures throughout the day and makes sure my 2 dogs maintain their feeding schedule and daily walks as they are used at home. This is now their vacation home. I’m so glad I found you, Jay, thanks!”
“Raye is great! My dogs has stayed with her multiple times and each time I feel as though my dog is taken care of, loved, and has so much fun with her! She’s flexible with scheduling and communicates very well! No complaints about her!”
“My boy had a great time at Amber's house. He came back happy and tired; definitely got some much needed outside time, socialization, and cuddles. It was easy to coordinate drop-off and pickup, and I received updates and pictures during his stay.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Shay and her family. She set up a meet and greet with us to make sure we both felt comfortable, and we immediately fell in love with her. I am a first-time dog owner, and my Pepper is my baby so it was really hard for me to think about leaving her… but after seeing her kids with Pepper and the love they were already giving her the first time we met, I felt peace leaving her with them for the week. Shay sent us pictures/videos and little updates every day, and sometimes twice when I asked ?. She even checked in after our trip to make sure everything was okay. I am pretty sure Pepper didn’t want to come home after her week with them. There is no doubt that we found our dog sitter for life. I have already referred her to a close family friend and will continue to. Thanks, Shay and Jake!”
“Zulema came to us super happy. She got home & slept all day! So I can tell she had tons of fun & was taken care of! Abby is an excelent communicator & made sure to send pictures and updates. 10/10”
About: With over 7 years of hands-on experience as a devoted pet owner, I’ve cared for animals at every life stage—from the gentle needs of my senior toy poodle to the boundless energy of my young golden retriever. I specialize in creating a nurturing and safe environment, offering personalized care that includes potty training, leash walking, and reinforcing basic obedience commands like sit, stay, and recall. Whether it’s meeting the unique challenges of senior care or keeping active pups engaged, I bring patience, attentiveness, and a deep passion for happy, healthy pets. As someone who works from home with a flexible schedule, pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. I’m able to provide consistent attention throughout the day, from morning walks and feeding to playtime and enrichment activities. My flexible schedule ensures your pets receive the care and attention they need, with plenty of time for exercise, training, and affection. In my home, I provide designated spaces for my pets to rest and play, ensuring they have a comfortable and secure area. I also have a fenced yard where pets can safely enjoy outdoor time. Your pet will be safe and comfortable, and if they enjoy playing with other dogs, I can arrange playtime with mine. If preferred, I can keep pets separate or crate them if they are crate-trained, ensuring everyone feels relaxed. I follow a consistent routine for my dogs, including regular feeding, walks, and playtime, to maintain a sense of structure. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe and positive environment where pets feel at ease, with plenty of attention and affection throughout their stay.
“It was our first time leaving our dog Lucy with Michelle and Lucy had a wonderful time and Michelle took great care of of her. I really appreciated the daily updates and pictures on how Lucy was doing. We were gone for a week and I felt comfortable and confident leaving Lucy in her care. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!”
“Our two golden doodles loved their long weekend stay with Matt and Cooper (Matt’s adorable and gentle dog). Matt sent me lots of updates and pictures throughout their stay. We’ve already booked our next stay with Matt and Cooper and I’m just so glad to have a reliable and caring home for my dogs.”
“Yolanda was great! She sent me photos of Suki (my puppy) and made me feel super comfortable with leaving her for the first time with a sitter. She took Suki outside and sent me lots of videos. Yolanda gave me updates mid day, I didn’t feel the need to check in as often as I thought I would, I felt confident that my puppy Suki was in great hands! I highly recommend Yolanda and will be booking again for sure! :)”

“Absolutely great family taking care of Monty not just as my dog but as their own. Monty was such a happy boy when I picked him up. He says he wants to go back one day soon again. Such a beautiful family affair that made my travel so much easier knowing he s in such good hands including their super sweet and beautiful dog. Thank you so much”
“Alexandra boarded our 14 year old super senior pug and she did really well. She used to go to a large boarding facility and when she came home she was very out of sorts and unsettled. Diamond came right back home and settled right back in so it seems that she was happy while we were gone. Alexandra was super responsive and sent daily updates. Overall it was a great experience for us and apparently for her as well :)”
“This was a great experience for both me and Mila. Tiffany took such great care of my fur baby and sent me pictures so I knew how she was doing throughout her stay! Tiffany will definitely be my go to dog sitter moving forward.”
“Jeffrey was fantastic with my dog! He sent me lots of updates and pictures while I was away, so I was always confident that Malcolm was being well taken care of. I also appreciated that Jeffrey was happy to take Malcolm on good walks and also cuddle with him when they were just hanging out. I highly recommend this Rover!”

“Hilary was great! My dog (Dakota) loved his time with her. She kept me updated with great photos and his status. I can also tell that he got a lot of exercise (and had a lot of fun). He was good and tired once he got home - just like he is when he returns from doggy day care. I will definitely schedule more time with Hilary - highly recommended!!”
“Peyton took good care of Kylo while we were traveling. She sent me updates about him time to time along with pictures so I was aware of how Kylo was doing. I highly recommend Peyton for keeping your furry friends while you need. Thank you once again Peyton !”
“During July 4th, we planned on going out of town for the weekend. We were impressed with Julie's rover profile and decided to contact her. We were able to meet up with her twice, once so that she could see our dog, and the second time so that Mozzie could check out her place. This was the first time since adopting him over a year ago that were had ever boarded him somewhere, so we were understandably nervous about it, but Julie proved to be a great sitter. She sent us status updates and pictures while we were away, so that we could know what Mozzie was up to. When we came to pick him up, she also helped us with tips and ideas on how to help Mozzie socialize with other dogs. We could definitely tell that Mozzie was in good hands. Definitely recommended!”

Miguel A.
“I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with Miguel for over a year, and in that time, he has consistently impressed me with his dependability, work ethic, and positive attitude. Miguel is incredibly trustworthy. He always follows instructions carefully and takes initiative to ensure tasks are completed thoroughly and on time. He is also very responsible and can be counted on to handle any unexpected situations that may arise. Beyond his work ethic, Miguel has a genuine love for animals. He is gentle and patient with pets, and l've witnessed him go above and beyond to ensure their comfort and well-being. He has a natural ability to connect with animals and quickly build rapport with them. I highly recommend Miguel as a pet caregiver. I am confident that he will provide excellent care for any animal entrusted to him. He is a kind, compassionate, and responsible individual who will be a valuable asset to any pet owner.”
