“Mirriam and Terrell were the best rovers we’ve ever had! We received plenty of updates, pictures, and videos of our dog being spoiled, playing, and sleeping! They were also kind enough to watch our dog last minute with no issues while we went on a camping trip. We felt very relieved and safe that our pet was in good hands. We highly recommend them!!!”
“Jennifer was excellent with my Dog Oreo and providing constant communication and photos. Seems like Oreo did enjoy his company with other dogs also during his stay. Also Jennifer made sure that he is eating his food and treats as per the schedule. Thanks and will definitely will take the services again!”
“Our pup, Ruby, stayed with Kasey & her family for a week. During this time we received many photos as well as regular updates. Ruby was well taken care of and we will happily book again with Kasey!”
“Taylor is truly a gem! From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she genuinely loves dogs. Her home and yard are not only clean and welcoming but also perfectly set up to be dog-friendly and safe—Diamond and Tiny felt right at home. She kept me updated with frequent communication, sending the sweetest videos and pictures that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Seeing my furbabies relaxed, playful, and happy in her care really meant the world to me. I could tell they enjoyed being with her—and that’s all the reassurance I needed. I didn’t hesitate to book with her again. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pups like family, I can’t recommend Taylor enough! —Litisha”
“This is the second time we have used Peggy to watch our dog, and he was excited to see her and her husband. She will be our go-to for future boarding needs. Our dog was well cared for, and Peggy sent daily text updates.”
About: 🐾 Senior Dog Experience 🐾 Puppy Experience 🐾 Reactive Dog Experience 🐾 Anxious Dog Experience 🐾 Dog Coaching Experience Whether your dog is super anxious, super chill, extra bossy, extra playful, or just needs someone who truly gets it— I offer experienced and thoughtful care that adapts to their individual personality. From enrichment games to slow warm-ups, from athletic activity to assisted mobility, I meet your dog where they are physically— and support them emotionally. Great with high energy, nervous, and special need dogs, but I welcome all temperaments! You'll always get detailed notes and they’ll always get real connection— no guesswork, no missed meds, no rushed visits. Just reliable, behavior-savvy care for dogs and their big feelings. If your pup needs someone who truly understands them while you’re away, I’d love to help. My wife and I both work from home so my schedule is flexible. I’m happy to make your pet a priority and be consistent care you can count on. I can keep up with your dog’s home routines and provide playtime, walks, feedings and medication while you’re away. My home has a large, grassy yard with nature views and a lot of cozy places to rest inside. I never use crates unless asked to, and your dog will be treated like one of my own—spoiled, safe, and seen.
“Roo loves Sylvie, and so do we! Sylvie is kind, patient, understanding, and fantastic with dogs - and people! Sylvie has as much energy as the puppies she serves. Her yard is amazing and caters to all dogs! You will love Sylvie, her dogs, and her yard.”
“This is my first time doing Rover. So I had no clue what to expect. Katie and Timothy were caring ,kind and attentive hosts. Chloe the chihuahua had a great time. She would love to stay with them again. Amazing people.”
“Jill was fantastic! My dog Rue was well cared for over a long weekend. Jill sent many pictures and updates and made clear how much she loved Rue throughout the stay. I’ll definitely have her watch Rue again if I go out of town in the future. Thanks so much, Jill!”
“Melvin enjoyed his time with Marisol. She kept me up to date with texts and photos. She also purchased optional food when Melvin wasn’t eating his regular food which had never happened before. I’ll use her services again in the future.”
“Marian and Will were wonderful hosts to our new dog Tilly. We are usually very nervous to leave our dogs with new sitters, or even with friends, but Marian made us feel very comfortable and our dog Tilly had a great time. She was very relaxed when she returned! I highly recommend booking your next Rover with Marian.”
“I just love Ashley, as do my girls! I felt so at ease knowing how well my girls were being cared for. I have had a couple bad experiences with other sitters, but Ashley has revived my confidence in Rover. We are so happy to have found Ashley 😀”
“Keith did a great job caring for our dog, while we were on vacation. He sent us pictures and informed us how he was doing. Our pup was happy and at ease around him. We definitely recommend Keith! Your pet will be in safe and caring hands with him!”
“This was my first time leaving my 9 month old puppy with somebody for an extended period of time. I was quite nervous that something may happen and that I wouldn't be there to help. However, Erin made the experience stress free and very simple. I knew as soon as I was dropping my dog off that she would be in good hands. Erin had a very sweet dog of her own that my dog got along with instantly. There was plenty of room for my dog to walk around and many toys to play with during her stay. Erin also walked with her often to help get the puppy energy out. She sent the nicest pictures of my dog everyday which really helped ease my stress and see how my dog was doing. I already know who I'm choosing next time I go on vacation!”
“Pallvi and her family are fantastic! This is our second time leaving our two dogs with them and the experience continues to be great. If you or someone you know is looking for a family to look after your furry friends, my wife and I cannot recommend Pallvi and her family enough.”

Roger C.Star Sitter
“Roger trained my stubborn Aussie and a couple years later he came back to help with our new puppy Luna. He does boarding for us now when I'm on work travel and the dogs just love him! That is saying a lot because Criss doesn't like anyone however just hearing about Roger coming to get him gets him so excited. Everything has always gone so well with him and both dogs and he helped us understand so much about why they do certain stuff. We recommend him in the neighborhood and have always heard good feedback.”
