We are repeat users. Heather was great with our 8 year old male maltese for two weeks. Our pup left happy and enjoyed his playmates and Heather's attention.

My pets felt right at home at Kayla’s house. She took very good care of my babies. She provided a big cat condo for my cat, she provided pictures of my pets. My pets loved being there and felt very comfortable with her. I recommend Kayla to watch your pets! I will bring my pets back to her.

My dogs really seemed to enjoy their stay with Christina. For the first time ever at a sitters, they did not bark like crazy when I came back. They were very calm (their usual state when at home) which made me very happy. She sent me photos every day, which was very nice.

This was our first time boarding Oliver with Norma, and it won’t be our last! She is so thoughtful and has such a calming personality 🥰 We received lots of pics of our little buddy from her the whole time we were gone; he looked like he was having so much fun! He even let her daughter Lily hold him, which almost never happens since he can take a long time to warm up to others. She even sent us home with some soft treats that are good for pups with very few teeth left. We’ll definitely have to bring him by for daycare so he can keep making friends! So lucky to have found Norma and her family, they’re awesome!! 💗😄

Kevin was fabulous with Skye from the very first messages until I picked her up. He sent me pictures and videos and texts every day, several times a day, to ease my mind that Skye was OK and she was in good hands. From the pictures I could tell she was happy and content and well taken care of. I will definitely be contacting Kevin again next time I go out of town.

Magda & JD cared for our dog, Nyla, for 3 nights and 4 days. They sent us updates and pictures periodically and whenever we inquired. Nyla is newly adopted by us just 3 months ago, so we had “new parent” needs for reassurance that they met graciously. Nyla enjoyed playing with their dogs, Maizee and Harley. We feel very good about this experience and plan to book with them in the future!

It was our first time using Rover and a friend recommended Vasti. Our puppy, Haven, was boarded for 5 days and had a wonderful time. Vasti and Bryan took great care of her and sent updates with pictures and videos frequently. We are so grateful for finding you and knowing Haven is well cared for when we are away. We look forward to boarding with you again in the future!

Jennifer was a perfect sitter for our 2 yr old Frenchy named Hank. Hank had a happy 4 day stay and made a few new friends along the way. Jennifer sent daily pictures which was very helpful!! We were able to see how much fun he was having and in good hands. Would highly recommend Jennifer and plan to use her again when in the near future. Thank you & great job, Jennifer!!

I’m not typically one for rave reviews, but it’s easy to rave about Linda! She is kind, caring, and so good with my rescue dog Coco. Coco was in a cage for years so she has separation anxiety. And Linda knew just what to do to put her at ease. She also sent lots of pictures, stayed in constant contact, and asked all of the right questions. If I could give 10 stars I would.

Our experience was wonderful! When our previous sitter canceled unexpectedly, he stepped in right away and welcomed Shiloh with open arms. From the moment we dropped him off, he made us feel completely at ease. He stayed in touch throughout Shiloh’s stay, sending regular updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. One of my favorite parts was that he has a Golden Retriever too, and Shiloh took to his new buddy immediately! It was so comforting knowing he had a friend to play with while we were away. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter!

I honestly cannot say enough good things about Lori. She has been watching my dog Chewie since 2016. As of this review, it has been 10 years. Never in a million years would I have bet we'd be able to book the same dog sitter through Rover for that long. Our dog has separation anxiety and can be very needy so it had been wonderful having the same trusted person caring for him over the years. She has always gone out of her way to make sure he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I never have to worry when he is with her because I know he is getting the same love and attention he gets at home. If you are looking for someone who will truly care for your pet as if they were her own, I cannot recommend Lori highly enough.

Emma was awesome and was totally flexible with scheduling. She shocked us by offering to pick up our Westie at the Clearwater Beach resort so that we could just enjoy a much needed mini vaca. Daisy took to her immediately and was tail wagging from the start! Very happy!!
