“Kaitlin and Verle were lovely, organized, and prepared. I was especially appreciative of their willingness and desire to care for my dog who is undergoing chemotherapy and could have exhibited several symptoms while I was away and unable to care for her myself. Highly recommended; will request their services in the future.”


“Whitney was great! We were so grateful that she took such good care of our Carly! From the first moment she met our dog we knew she would be in good hands. Whitney went the extra mile to make sure Carly was safe and happy! Carly was well taken care of and Whitney sent pictures everyday! We would highly recommend Whitney to anyone that needs a caregiver for their dog!”

“Yuki was wonderful! From the moment we connected, she was so kind, responsive, and genuinely caring. She treated my dog like her own — sending updates, giving extra love, and making sure she was completely comfortable. I could tell my pup was happy and well cared for the entire time. It’s rare to find someone so thoughtful and dependable, especially as a new sitter, but Yuki went above and beyond. I’ll definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, trustworthy sitter! 💕🐾”

“Linda was the absolute best! A loving, gentle, and thoughtful person from beginning to end. She was very caring and attentive to my dog, and I could tell my dog mutually enjoyed spending time with Linda. I would recommend her to anyone looking to board their dog; they’ll be in good hands. Thank you Linda!”

“We’ve used Genevieve several times and continue to be so happy and comfortable with her! My dog Franklin gets excited to see her and looks so happy in all the pics she sends me during his stay 😊”

“Roscoe was exhausted when he got home showing just how much Jason keeps him busy. Tons of photos and communication, which is impressive because Roscoe hates photos. Thank you for taking great care of our pup”

“Amazing sitter! Super communicative and took such great care of my dog. My flight back to San Diego was delayed so I have to pick up my dog next morning. Hana was being super flexible with my schedule. Came home to a very happy pup—would 100% book again.”

“My husband and I are active duty military and we really wanted to go home to visit family, but we’re so apprehensive about who watches our dog. But Kylie and Anthony were wonderful!!! They loved and cared for our baby like she was their own. We got daily updates and pictures which really set our hearts at ease ❤️ we couldn’t have made a better choice to care for our little girl!!”

“very happy with the boarding we had with Alyssa. She was the perfect amount of communicative and sent photos daily with how my dog was doing. I know my dog had a great time as well since she knocked out as soon as she got home from all the fun she had”

“Holly was absolutely amazing! We have a 12 year old dog, Odie, who hates change. Every time we have gone out of town and left him with a sitter, we come back to a stressed out dog, who has nervously bitten off all the fur on his feet and his tail. When we came back this time, he was happy, healthy, and looked like he didn't want to leave Holly's care. He had clearly been spoiled with love, attention and care at Holly's house. She sent us daily updates on our dog including pictures, and was incredibly responsive and flexible. Her dog was a sweetheart and patiently let Odie follow her around and take naps with her. When we got home, my partner said "It looks like we found Odie's dog sitter." I will be 100% requesting Holly the next time we need someone to take care of Odie.”

“Cerita went above and beyond the call of duty when caring for blue. She fed him snacks and made sure he was comfortable. I would definitely use her services again. Thanks Cerita.”

“Jocy is worth a reservation! She has experience with all type of dogs and knows how to gauge with each one. She is a very nice person and wants the best for your dog. Listens and understand your concerns for your dogs needs. She took very good care of my senior Pomeranian. Followed instructions with food and medication, provided updates with video and pictures throughout my dog’s stay. Made sure my dog was comfortable when she had separation anxiety. And was my dogs temp. bestfriend while I was away. I look forward to rebooking her again.”

“Layla was amazing! She was so accommodating when we changed up our drop off and pick up times. She sent us endless photos that showed our dog was super happy and well taking cared of. She was super friendly and truly a wonderful dog sitter! We will definitely use her again.”

“Susan and her family are very experienced with dogs. My GSD stayed with them for a few days and I can tell she had a great time walking and playing with them and other dog and had peaceful time with cats. Susan sent me frequent updates with pictures which made me feel so much ease. I appreciate all her efforts caring my dog. I would definitely go to her next time without any hesitation. Thanks Susan!”

“Rachelle was WONDERFUL! She sent so many awesome pictures of Enzo during his stay. He was very well-exercised and came home exhausted! Rachelle was super flexible with pickup/dropoff. I will definitely be returning to Rachelle in the future!”

“oh my goodness I am SO happy I found Josh to watch my pups. I know they had a great time with him and he took such good care of them. He administered meds for my one pup and made my slightly nervous other pup feel safe and loved. My whippet loves to run and he made sure he got to do that! I will absolutely use him in the future and highly recommend.”

“Savanah was so caring to our 16 year old dog, Zulu. Unfortunately, our senior dog requires extra attention due to his dementia and separation anxiety. Savanah showed compassion and made every effort to care for Zulu and make him feel comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Thank you, Savanah for everything! We really appreciate it.”

Allied Gardens dog parents share their Rover experiences
We could not have asked for a better sitter than Alyssa. We were leaving for a 21-day international trip and needed complete peace of mind, and she exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, Alyssa was thoughtful and thorough. She requested an initial meet-and-greet and even had our baby girl Ayla over for a full day to make sure she would be a great fit with her two fur babies. That alone showed us how intentional and responsible she is. While we were away, Alyssa sent daily updates, photos, and videos even when we didn’t have service so that the moment we checked in, we knew Ayla was happy, safe, and thriving. There was so much playtime, fetch, cuddles, and love. It was clear Ayla wasn’t just being watched, she was being truly cared for. One of the things we appreciated most is how attentive and hands-on Alyssa is. She only takes a maximum of four dogs at a time, which makes a huge difference. Ayla got personalized attention and was treated like one of her own family members. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and that says everything. Ayla already can’t wait to go back for doggie daycare, and neither can we. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your fur baby, Alyssa is it. Highly, highly recommend! 🐶✨

Kaitlin and Verle were wonderful! Very friendly and communicative, and great with sending updates and photos. My dog is a delicate little guy, and I felt very comfortable that they’d keep him safe. I also had some unexpected schedule changes and they were very accommodating. I highly recommend them and would absolutely book with them again.

Michael did an amazing job taking care of my dog Koko. He’s responsible, caring, and treated her like his own. Koko was always happy, well taken care of, and comfortable in his care. I truly appreciate his dedication and communication throughout the process. I highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pet.

Shenell was great with our Matcha! She text us with updates on how she’s doing and sends pictures multiple times a day. I booked last minute and she made it work for us! She’s flexible and really cares. A plus side is her puppy and matcha love to play! We highly recommend her!

My puppy Yucca had a fantastic time at Sam's place! She loved playing with all the dogs. Yucca feels comfortable at Sam's place and always is happy to return! Sam is very flexible with drop off and pick up time. Sam is the perfect match for my puppy Yucca! I highly recommend Sam's care for your pup!

Second time coming back to Leiah now! The pups absolutely love her. Leiah and her partner are super attentive with the dogs and treat them like family. Our Doberman can be a tough one with his anxiety and allergies but Leiah is great with all his needs! We will keep returning as long as they will have us!

We had a good experience overall. We met for a Meet & Greet beforehand, and everything went smoothly. It was over the New Year period, and I appreciated that Sarah said she would be home, which helped avoid extra stress for our dog. Sarah has a secure, fully enclosed backyard, which was convenient so the dog could go outside anytime, even in rainy weather. There were no issues. Thank you for taking care of our little munchkin.

My dog Phoebe started having swelling in her paw just a few days before our booking and Liza was happy to adjust the plan and give her medication during her stay. Liza also sent photo updates throughout our trip which was great. Her dog Barron did growl at Phoebe during drop off when Phoebe tried to pick up his chew toy, but Liza redirected him and upon pick up they were buddies.

My dog is in her later years and comes with a lot of needs and care instructions, and Anja was so willing to accommodate those needs and take on some of the more difficult parts for her care where some other sitters may not be as comfortable taking on those challenges. She did not require a prior conversation, but I wanted to meet in-person to make sure she was comfortable with everything before booking. Anja was more than willing to come meet us beforehand so we could go over her needs and physically show her how to do some things (ie. how to pick up my dog who has sensitive limbs, how to put on a diaper where she’s sensitive, etc.). Even better, Anja was so kind and flexible with me, as I had several issues with transportation and potentially needed to change my dates. I was extremely stressed about making my trip work but this was one thing I didn’t have to worry about once I was able to speak with her and make sure she felt prepared for Abbey’s stay. I sincerely could not recommend her enough if you have a pet with high needs!

Appreciative to have Colin care for my dog, Benji! Colin made sure Benji went on several walks each day and had his designated meals. He also provided extra attention to Benji by caring for his itchy paws each day. He shared photos of any products and special treats with me prior to giving them, which was very thoughtful and generous. Colin communicated daily and sent photos and videos. He was super easy to talk to and really nice too! I'd definitely recommend him!!!
