Dan and Rissa took great care of our BMD Mocha! They are very friendly and speedy with communication. Getting pics throughout the weekend was great, Mocha seems to have had a great time.

Tony was AMAZING. He sent lots of pictures and took our dog on multiple walks a day. He kept us updated and was flexible with pickup/drop off times. Our dog even came back knowing a new trick!

Karen was great with my little Leo. He came home from his stay happy! Karen even helped with his medicine. I felt very reassured that my Leo was in good hands.

She was able to take my two dogs last minute after another rover person did not answer when I was at their house. She was amazing with my babies and they really enjoyed her. Definately recommend!!

Ruth is a 10/5 stars. This was my first time seperating from my three pups and she went above and beyond to put me at ease. Ruth is honest, kind, and sure to send you pictures and videos throughout the stay. Three was a lot to take on and Ruth exceeded my expectations. Your furkids will definately be in good care with Ruth.

She is a really good host. Right from the start itself their dog and our dog connected as they both are of same breed. She was really caring and gave us intermittent updates as well with photos and text of how our dog was doing. Her whole family got connected to our dog really well and provided a homely feeling for our dog. Will definitely recommend them and will like to rover with them again.

Sammy was perfect with our dog Pretzel. She went above and beyond to take her to our wedding and back. She also sent update pics the whole weekend. Pretzel got along with her pup as well and was sad to leave. I would definitely recommend her for all your doggy needs.

I have two great danes, Duke and Jackson, and they ABSOLUTELY love Josh!!! It's not easy keeping two 160lb dogs under control for walks, but Josh is a master at it. I highly recommend him if you want someone who loves your dogs as much as you do. :)

Devin was exceptionally great with my two tend-to-be-nervous Chihuahuas. When I dropped the dogs off they instantly settled in. When I picked the dogs up three days later, they were happy, fed, played, and chill. Devin’s clearly a great guy who loves dogs. He went above the regular duties and he knows interesting things about restaurants in town as well! This was a five star experience. Totally made my weekend in town stress free. 100 would recommend.

The best sitters on this app! Absolutely professional in the way of doing things and unbelievably lovely with the dog. I’ve left my pup with them twice and she refuses to leave their place when I pick her back up. Super friendly couple and very much involved in their care towards dogs. Thomas and Emily always accommodated my requests and were super helpful in giving my pups medication too. I would 100% recommend them, the best dog sitters ive come across so far!!!

About: I have about one year of professional experience in the industry, but have had many pets throughout my life. I have worked in the dog daycare industry for about two years. I have also had and cared for reactive pups! I currently working full time, however my mornings and evenings are filled with tons of play time with my favorite four leggers. When staying with us, there’s always someone in home to care for pups 24/7! I have a big unfenced yard with long lines in the front and the back so pups can be separated while outdoors. We have a complete living space on both floors so any pups can be separated and still feel at home. We have three pups and a few cats that get along well with others! All of our pups are crate trained, and we have many extra crates around the home in the event we have some crate trained friends over.
