Susan and her husband were great with Oreo. They have a wonderful setup and are very organized and mark each dogs food when they arrive. They even add a lost and found tag with their info should anything happen. They had a kiddie pool and sprinkler for the dogs since it was hot but they wanted to play in the big yard. They sent great pics and videos and we were very comfortable leaving Oreo with them For the week. He's now sleeping but I'm Sure he misses his new friends and doggie Vacay spot.

Aisha did a great job with my new rescue dog. I had only had Maggie for a week before I unfortunately had to leave her for the weekend, but Aisha took excellent care of her. We did a meet and greet in advance that was really helpful and made Maggie familiar with Aisha and her home. Aisha sent me a number of pictures and frequent updates. She was also very patient with Maggie even when she had a couple accidents. When I came to pick Maggie up it was clear that she really liked Aisha. I would not hesitate to use her again. I really appreciated her help!

Carrie and Matthew were absolutely amazing! They were able to watch our pup on short notice and couldn’t have been more kind and accommodating. They were incredibly communicative throughout the entire stay, sending regular updates and tons of adorable photos. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dog was in such caring hands. We highly recommend them and will definitely be reaching out again for any future pet-sitting needs!

This is my second time booking with Helena & Nathan! Louis loves doing zoomies in their backyard and came back home exhausted. He had a minor paw injury before dropping him off which required them to clean his paw every night and they had no problem doing it. Thanks so much!!

Jona was very easy to work with and took amazing care of our best friend! We felt comfortable knowing Phoebe was in great hands. At our meet and greet, it took Phoebe less than a minute before she was curled up next to Jona asking for a belly rub. During Phoebe's stay, Jona kept us updated throughout the day letting us know Phoebe was happy and well cared for. Phoebe followed Jona around the house and to bed each night - proving how quickly they bonded. Phoebe takes medication twice a day and that was no problem for Jona. Phoebe requires a lot of attention and love and Jona gave her that and more. We will absolutely plan to book again with Jona. I am very happy and Phoebe was so happy!

Veronica was awesome. Very easy to deal with. Our meet and greet went well, and she was flexible on the drop off and pick up times. We received photos of our dogs each day. This was our first time traveling without our dogs. We were nervous. Veronica made us feel comfortable. We will use her again.

Christine is always my go-to for any short or long term boarding for Oreo! She was flexible with the late pick up time that I had set and also provided updates on how Oreo was doing throughout the days he was with her. I love how there are sometimes other dogs she is taking care of so Oreo has a chance to socialize and play while I am away. Thank you again to Christine!

Vincent was awesome! My husband and I went on vacation for 2 weeks in Italy and was the first time we could not take Chifli with us. Chifli has stayed with pet sitters for a night here and there but we were never to far. I was so nervous, but Vincent helped me leave with confidence that Chifli would be loved and cared for and that he was! Vincent would send us pictures or videos daily so I can continue to enjoy my vacation and know that he was enjoying his stay also with Vincent. Thank you Vincent!

We are new to the area and needed to find a sitter for our English Bulldog Louie. We found Anmei on Rover and are thrilled to have met her and her fur baby Ziggy. They kept Louie over Memorial Day weekend and took great care of him. She kept me updated on how he was doing and sent video and pictures. Also, Anmei was very open to doing a meet and greet before our scheduled booking which helped put our minds to ease. Really appreciated her doing that. I highly recommend her as a sitter and will be using her services again.

They sent daily updates either pictures and were great at following schedules and advice that we gave them. Overall, I would absolutely recommend them for anyone who wants their furry loved one to be taken care of with so much care!
