About: I had a dog for over 10 years and after he sadly passed away, I realized that I still had a lot of love to give! I’m currently a stay at home mom who absolutely adores pets, so my schedule is completely up to what your pet needs and what their schedule is! I live in an upstairs apartment that has lots of space for play time but also has cozy spots for nap time! The apartment has a secured front balcony that can be blocked off at request.

“This couple is amazing! They are so sweet and gentle and love dogs, your in good hands with them. Always communicating with updates etc. I trust them 100%”
“Tatiana did an amazing job helping my kitten with her separation anxiety. Tatiana was very patient and nurturing not just with her but myself as well. I would definitely rebook when needed. Thank you for everything and for such a safe environment.”

“Armando is amazing! 🤩 He took on not one but TWO young, high energy dogs. He provides beautiful pictures, and our dogs are alway having the best time in them. We can’t thank him enough!”

“I can't say enough great things about Rebecca and Donald! They helped out in an emergency where I was already out of town and blessed our pup with so much love and care. Mutilple updates daily and made him feel right at home and helped put me at ease knowing he was in such good and loving hands. I would happily book them anytime in the future, absolute 10/10 people ❤️”

“Mollie was such a great dog sitter to Dexter , she gave me updates && sent me a lot of pictures. Highly recommend. Will definitely be rebooking. Thank you.”

“Karina is the Best in Town! Beautiful fenced backyard, plenty of pals coming through so there's always multiple play/cuddle companions. Maysie will definitely be back!”

About: As a young adult (19 years old) I adopted a 6 week old Maltipoo and named him Ziggy Marley. When you're young finding your path in life is not always easy, however, through care for Ziggy I was learning discipline, patience and how to express love and compassion. Now at 17 years of age in his senior years, Ziggy is still living his best life. I have learned what social/emotional, physical and stimulating activities are required ( through trial and learned experiences) what dogs need to thrive and live an enjoyable life. In 2023 my life partner, Manny and I rescued Pluto. Pluto is the calm, loving, and curious pup we didn't know we needed. Now as a Dog Mom of two, I have gained great experience in pet care in all ages, senior ages especially. I have become knowable of how to administer various medication types, how to provide a mentally stimulating and safe environment. I take pride in being the resident dog guru among family and friends for inquiries dog related. I also enjoy getting out in the community and speaking to pet owners and sharing experiences and building community. I am a full-time Dog Mom as I care for my senior dog, Ziggy, as well as Pluto. I may provide care Monday - Friday and weekend care can be arranged with advanced notice. Our spacious, fully enclosed backyard gives pets plenty of room to run around and get their zoomies out! For added peace of mind, our home is secured with security cameras, and we have a dedicated room available for overnight stays to accommodate dog beds or crates. Plus, our friendly resident dog, Pluto, is a calm and loving playmate ready to welcome guest dogs.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and other pets for many years for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and checking in on pets while their owners are away. I treat every pet with patience, love, and attention and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. I’m currently a stay at home mom and I spend plenty of time at home. Therefore, my availability for boarding your pet is flexible. I have a fenced yard and I can easily crate your dog if needed. I will supervise your pets and will follow the owner’s instructions.
“Jen was a good choice for us to leave our little dog Pilot with. She kepted a good watch over him, sent us lots of pictures and he looked happy. Thank you for taking good care of Pilot.”

“It was our first time using Rover, and first time booking with Linette and we had an amazing experience! Linette was so sweet and took great care of my dog Kaiya, she constantly updated us with pictures throughout the stay & was very communicative and friendly. It was my dog’s first night away from us and she definitely reassured us that she would be in great hands. Thank you so much again, we appreciate you for taking great care of our Kaiya :)”

“Christine is a treasure. She took care of my dog Rico like he was her own. Upon me, dropping her off, she immediately began walking him. She communicated with me every step of the way to inform me of how my pet is doing. My wife expressed that she was so happy that we were able to have free time because Christine was a reliable caretaker for our pet. We will definitely book again. She’s worth her weight and gold. Thank you, Christine. P. Kenji Bonds”

“Amazing experience! She took such great care of my dog and kept me updated with photos throughout the stay. I could tell my pup was happy and comfortable. Definitely would book again!”

About: I've cared for dogs for 20 years, from puppies to seniors, including dogs who need oral, eye and ear medications, topical creams, inhalers, and health monitoring. I also have foster experience with small dogs. I host one small dog (up to 15 lb) at a time, so your pup gets my full attention. I work remotely, so your dog is home with me most of the day, with regular potty breaks and walks along the downtown waterfront. My 9 lb Pomeranian is a friendly daycare regular who loves other dogs and makes a great playmate. All guests must be current on vaccines and flea/tick prevention. Meet-and-greets are welcome, and I'll send photo updates throughout each stay. I work from home, so your dog is with me most of the day, with potty breaks about every 3 hours. My workday ends at 3 PM, so afternoons are for a long walk, play, and extra attention. Boarding guests also get a last potty break before bed and first thing in the morning. Your dog is welcome on the furniture and can sleep in my bed, with pet stairs so small pups can climb up safely. If you prefer, I can crate your dog instead. It's your call. I have an oversized, fully enclosed covered balcony with a washable turf potty station and dog beds. The door stays open, so pups can wander in and out for fresh air and a convenient backup potty spot. Inside, there are dog beds, puppy pads, and toys (oh my!), and your pup will spend the day hanging out with my Pomeranian, Poof, while I work nearby. I'm a bit of a helicopter dog mom, so my home stays dog-proofed, with cords, food, and anything unsafe kept out of reach. Dogs are always leashed outside, and I have an emergency vet nearby if anything comes up.

“Our dog Blue had the best time staying with Dianiris and her family. From the get go, Dianiris responded quickly to texts and was very kind and reassuring (I might have been having a little separation anxiety of my own lol). I really appreciated all of the check-ins and photos she sent while Blue was with her too. Dianiris will definitely be our go-to sitter if we are back in the area!”

“Yvie took great care of our Maggie. We will be having some play dates soon. She was more than willing to send pictures and message with us. We had never left Mags with a Rover sitter. We are so thankful she was safe with Yvie.”

“Yoda seemed very happy and relaxed after his stay. I’ve booked with her before and when I dropped him off he was good to go. I got updates and beautiful pictures of Yoda. I would definitely rebook!”

“Where do I begin? Dominique is Absolutely Amazing. She took care of Paris so well went above and beyond took her own walks. Gave her extra treats and extra love. She sent me pictures and videos of Paris and what she was doing throughout the days. I am greatly appreciative of finding her and the quality of care that she gave our little fur baby. I was so thankful and ungrateful for her care that we have already rebooked twice with her for future engagements. Thank you so much, Dominique. We greatly appreciate you and Paris had a ball.”

Top notch professional. We had a worry free experience with Laura. She provided timely updates, and every pic of our pups showed they were well cared for and loved. They had ample play time in the yard and she had toys ready for them to play with while there. We will definitely book her again for puppy care

Left my dog there for a few days, came back a day earlier and was able to pick him up a day earlier too with no problem. Everything I jad packed for my dog was returned with no issues and the food I had packed too was nearly all gone so I can assume they were feeding him well. I got lots of pictures and I picked him up in the same conditions I dropped him off in. I did get a bit scared because of some of the reviews, but I had a good experience with Adrian will likely book with him again. Overall a good experience, maybe except the responses were a bit slow, but that wasn't really an issue.

I had a wonderful sitting experience with Linette and highly recommend her! I was weary since my initial sitter plans fell through last minute but Linette was able to watch Lucky and accommodate her specific needs at a moment’s notice. 💕 She gave regular updates and was always prompt to respond. Your fur baby will definitely be in good hands with Linette.

Staci is amazing! I was able to book with her at the last minute as my usually sitter was unavailable. I was nervous about leaving my babies with someone we didn’t know however, Staci made us feel comfortable from beginning to end. She sent frequent updates and lots of pics throughout the day. Our pups loved her and was in no hurry to leave when we picked them up which was a good sign to me. We would definitely be booking with her again in the future.

Arash was great. Let me know right away that my pup was doing well after I dropped him off. That was very comforting since it was my dogs first time over. Arash was quick to respond, flexible with time, and easy to communicate with. Zeke will definitely coming back for another sleepover

Reasons why Heather is great: - She takes my dog on long walks - I can rely on her to give important medication - Her fur babies are friendly and my dog is never lonely at her house - My flight home was canceled and she was able to watch my dog for an extra night (thank you Heather!!) - she sends pics and updates - she responds to messages quickly Leaving our fur babies is hard, but booking with Heather makes me feel at ease! I highly recommend her services.

There is no one I’d trust more with my dog than Elena! She is an exceptionally kind, devoted person and fully committed (and flexible!) to pets needs. My dog was with her for 2.5 weeks and I’m so impressed at the love and care she received. There were ZERO behavioral issues with her reacclimatizing back at home. Elena deserves 10 stars!!
Tatiana is THE BEST. She went above and beyond for my furry boy! He fell ill just before we left down and was on a much more complicated schedule with meds and feeding than normal and she was so kind and loving to him. She didn’t mind tho adjustment and helped get our boy back to feeling good and being himself! Great communication on her part, all the photos. She treated him like he was her own. We had zero worries with him in her care.
