1. Jessie M.

“I will definitely use Jessie again when needed. All of the pictures he sent to me my dog Wally looked so happy to be there. Thank you Jessie for taking care of my fur baby.”


2. Kelly F.

“Kelly was great with my dog, who is a monster at times. I received pics and videos while I was away. Kelly has a fully fenced in backyard with plenty of area to run. Kelly's dog Cody made a great friend to my puppy during her stay. I would definitely recommend using Kelly's services and plan to again in the future.”


3. Chelsea & Derek M.


“Awesome people!! And very accommodating!! It’s a comfort to know your furry family member is in such great hands while you are miles and miles away. It allows us to enjoy our vacation more knowing that he’s being so well cared for!!”


4. Mary & Casey C.


“This stay was Sarabi's greatest yet! It was the longest we had to be away from her since we started using Rover and we were thousands of miles away in Hawaii, but per our usual experience with Mary & Casey we were updated frequently about how Sarabi was doing with photos of her big smile each time! Mary even caught a special moment on camera of Sarabi rolling on her back to scratch herself which she ONLY does at home when she feels very comfortable! The way that our dog is cared for when we are away has really improved our overall quality of travel because there is no worry that she feels neglected or confused that we are gone. We are so blessed to have Mary & Casey care for our girl!”




5. Jamie & Brian K.


“We've had Fred at Jamie's and Brian's a few times, and it's been the best fit we've found so far! He comes home happy and healthy and it's been great!”


6. Jacque A.
“Excellent experience! Jacque was great with our dog! He stayed in constant communication with pictures and texts. Our dog was so content there and came back incredibly relaxed and happy. I Would absolutely use him again!”


7. Melissa W.

“Melissa is wonderful!! She took great care of my husky and german shepard together, and they're a handful. Very quick to respond, good communication and they were very happy playing with her two pups. 10 out of 10 would recommend!”


8. Joshua B.


“Kuzco had another great time with Joshua and his family. He came home relaxed and in good spirits, that's all I can ask for.”


9. Emma P.


“Emma was great to communicate with, always quick to respond and sent me updates on how my dog was doing with pictures ☺️ My dog has a lot of energy but I was comfortable with the fenced in yard and knew he was getting attention. I would definitely use Emma again.”


10. Makayla P.
“Makayla is a great cat sitter! She was super attentive to instructions, respectful of my cat’s aversion to other humans, and great with daily communication and pictures after each visit ! I absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a pet caregiver !!”




11. Danielle H.


“Cinnamon had a great time with Danielle! Danielle is a great sitter. We appreciate everything Danielle did for us and Cinnamon. We are so pleased and can't wait for the next time!!”


12. Jessica & Christopher H.

“I have a very high energy, 120 lb German Shepherd, and I worry about boarding him because of his initial impression. I cannot say enough good things about Jess & Christopher. They set up a meet and greet so we were able to meet them, and their dog, before his stay. They were flexible with drop off and pick up times, excellent communication through his stay, gave him medication as requested, and did everything possible to make it a great experience overall. I’m getting ready to book Coopers will definitely be staying with them again, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter!”


13. Beverly B.

“Bev watched my chihuahua for the first time. She came home happy and playful. I could tell she had a wonderful time. Also Bev’s comment was she sure loves her tummy rubbed which I knew meant if all she wanted was Bev to rub her belly she really liked her and trusted her. I will definitely be using Bev again soon.”


14. Erika B.

“HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! WILL DEFINITELY BE A REPEAT CUSTOMER! We couldn’t have been more appreciative with the care Erika provided taking care of our young puppy for the 5 days we were away. Erika’s pup Huxley was the perfect play mate for our pup to feel right at home and to help burn off energy. Erika was very easy to communicate with and sent us updates multiple times a day with how our pup was doing.”


15. Alexis G.

“My two dogs have never been away from me and Alexis kept them happy and active for a week! Alexis was very good at communicating promptly and keeping me informed. Thank you for a great week!”


16. Ashley A.

“Ashley was wonderful! Oreo had a great weekend with her. He can be nervous but she calmed him which was very reassuring for us! We would highly recommend her. Thank you again! Tina and John Duffy”


17. Gigi C.

“Another wonderful mini vacation for our Toby with his furry friends! Second time we've had the pleasure of having Toby stay with Gigi and we definitely give the highest recommendation knowing he's in a house filled with smiles and love. Thanks!”


18. michelle k.

“Michelle was awesome! Our dog Mabel loved her stay and Michelle kept us up to speed with pictures and videos documenting the week. Would definitely book again.”


19. Joan & Timothy T.

“Thank you very much Joan and Thomas for taking such good care of Oli, I’m sure he enjoyed all the walks and attention that you gave him. We were very happy that we were able to find you so quickly. We appreciate all your care for our Oli-fur 😊 Thanks again, Lorraine and Rich”




20. Alexis A.


“I was very nervous at first leaving our Lucy with anyone again since she had a bad experience with another boarding place but with meeting Alexis, she made me feel immediately comfortable. Throughout the boarding process she was very communicative and even sent pictures and videos of Lucy having a good time with her kids and family. If I ever need another sitter I absolutely will be using her again!”
