“This is our second time with Guillermo and he took wonderful care of both my dogs. I got frequent photos or videos of their play time or walks and his communication was great per usual. Will definitely use again if needed!”


“True animal lover! So responsive and sends me so many picture updates. They love and understand animals and I feel so at ease whenever I leave my babies with them.”


“Leon and the family are all great! I know Laika is in good hands - this was my third time (I think) leaving my dog with them. Communication is great and he also sends me photos and updates and never an issue with pick up or drop off. Leon is always my first option with pet sitting!”



“Andrea and her family took good care of our senior, diabetic, blind dog. She administered his insulin and eye meds with no problems. When we picked him up he was calm. He felt at home around Andrea and her family. We were thankful too for the pictures she sent us on how he was doing. Really happy we got her to care for our dog.”


“Amanda sent a great variety of pictures. Our puppy seemed to have a wonderful time with the other dogs. Amanda answered questions immediately. I will be rebooking! Wonderful experience!”


“Angela was a pleasure to speak to and she put our family at ease while our pup Ollie was in her care. Correspondence was great before his boarding and she sent plenty of videos and pictures during his 4 night stay. She wanted to know lots of details to make our pup's stay a smooth transition. She took him on walks and played with him a lot too. You can tell she really loves dogs and enjoyed his stay as much as he did! We undoubtedly will use her again and recommend her to anyone needing dog care.”

“Our dog, Miso, loves it when he can stay with Elena and her doggies. We fully trust her to take good care of our dog. We have used Elena at least 4 times now and will continue to use her as our pet sitter. We love that she has a large yard for him to run around in.”


“Lacey is amazing!! She provides great care and is compassionate. Throughout the weekend I received pictures and videos! Lacey is very responsive and I’d book with her in a heartbeat!”


“I would give Heather 10 stars if it were possible! We’ve boarded our dog on several occasions and it’s always been a tough experience because she doesn’t eat very well and has seemed depressed while we’re gone. Our experience with Heather was the complete opposite; our dog was content and happy the entire time, something we didn’t think was possible while boarding 😅. Heather was very communicative and sent photos and videos of our dog every day while we were away. Her facility is also very clean and well kept, and feels warm and inviting as opposed to the large dog crates we’re accustomed to with other boarders. Heather obviously loves dogs and we were so grateful that she took such good care of our dog while we were gone for 10 days. I can’t recommend her and her services highly enough, this was hand down the BEST boarding experience we and our dog have ever had.”


“Ashley has been my go to, and will always be my first choice. I don’t want to say too many positives because then she won’t have availability for Major anymore lol. JK, she is fantastic and my dog loves going over to her spot. This is legit the perfect place.”


“Saber had a great time with Mariah. We got multiple updates and great communication. We were so blessed by her help and flexibility during time out of town. From the pictures, it looked like Saber was one of the family! It looked like she loved it there! Thank you so much!”



“Rover newbie here. Had an awesome first time experience. Lori was great and her 3 wiener dogs were adorable too. I think Pandak misses them ?. Appreciate the picture she sent during his stay. Highly recommended”


“Amy and her family were amazing with our two giant Weimaraners! We were kept very up to date and received lots of photos and videos. Our dogs literally did not want to leave. We are so happy we found Amy and can’t wait to use her to watch our boys again on our next trip!”



“It’s so comforting to know June was well taken care of during our week long vacation. I received constant updates and photos of June living her best life! I know she was spoiled with attention and love and I’m not sure she was ready to come home! Cathleen is the best!”


“She’s amazing and super flexible with my unexpected travel plan changes, which has been such a relief. My dog absolutely loves spending time with her, and he has even built a sweet bond with her son. He will also remember her by the homemade cookies she baked as a sweet little goodbye treat. I’m so grateful for her care and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”


“Kristin was amazing! We had to leave town unexpectedly and she was extremely flexible and willing to accommodate our sweet girl at the last minute. This was our first time using Rover and we will definitely book with Kristin next time.”
