“Kathleen is our go to dog sitter! She is always so flexible with drop off and pick up times. She sends pictures and videos to keep us up to date. I know my dog loves her time with Kathleen and I feel good that she has a warm, welcoming, safe home to stay in when we go away.”
“Richard is the best! We no longer feel guilty taking trips without our dog Boo knowing that he has the best time at Richard’s. Richard always sends daily pictures and is very communicative, so we never have to worry about our baby.”
“Michael & Maria were great hosts! Charlie stayed with them for 4 nights and this was his first time away from us. They made the transition very seamless for us! Days before dropping him off, they reached out prior to make sure we accommodated Charlie in any way we can. After dropping Charlie off, they gave us frequent pics multiple times during the day without even asking for them! They played with Charlie, took him for walks, and were extremely nice and communicative! I will definitely be booking again :)”
“Emily and Patrick were very kind and flexible with us when my boyfriend and I needed a dog sitter for a wedding. We were late picking her up and they were very understanding. Our dog and Eli must have had a blast together, because slept the entire next day! We will be using them again in the future!!”
“Great communication, easy drop off and pick up, affordable rate, and our dog seemed very happy and comfortable to be. I think our dog loved pal’ing around with Chang’s friendly pup Valley because she came home completely tired out. Would definitely recommend and rebook.”
“Rose was a great dog-sitter for our dog, Wednesday! We loved getting a daily update with pictures of our girl. Wednesday and Rose’s dog Daisy had fun playing together, too! Already booked another stay for Wednesday with Rose for our next trip!”
“Amy was amazing! I have a senior Shiba Inu who is 17 and Amy was so good with him! She was very patient with him and offered updates and pictures throughout the day. This was my first time having someone dog sit for me and she eased all of my anxiety about it. I would highly recommend her!”
“Amy was so accommodating! This was Kerrigan’s first stay with her, let alone Kerrigan’s first time away from us. Amy took time to visit with Kerrigan prior to her stay over the weekend. While we were away, Amy sent daily messages and pictures to report how Kerrigan was settling in. We’re so appreciative of Amy’s professionalism and care of our sweet pup! ??”
“Christine is the best! She was in constant communication with us in the lead up to and throughout Leo’s stay. She was flexible in working around our often changing pickup schedule and easily accommodated all of our pups needs. Will definitely book with Christine next time we need a dog sitter. Thanks again!”
“This is the second time we have booked with Audrey! And she is phenomenal! She sent daily photos and treated Winston like her own. I loved to see photos of Winston and Blush playing together! Super excited for their next play date! Audrey will be a go to sitter from now on!”
“Denise was a great sitter for our pup! She was very flexible with scheduling and provided regular updates throughout the stay. Would definitely work with her again and recommend!”
“Highly recommend! We needed to book a last-minute sitter with a 6:30 AM start time the following morning. Zeiydah to the rescue! She was communicative, sent lots of pictures and treated Mac so well. We will be booking again. Thank you so much, Zeiydah!”
“Valerie was fantastic with communication and care of our dog Faith. Faith bonded with Valerie and her son right away and was her energetic self when she returned home. Everything went smoothly and I would certainly trust Valerie again with Faith.”
“I am so happy I found Lisa to care for my boy Hank. She took great care of him and shared lots of pictures. It is hard leaving my dog behind, but I am comforted knowing that he is in a safe environment and has plenty of enrichment and fun.”
“Theresa boarded my 13 lb bundle of sweetness for a week, and she was absolutely wonderful! She was flexible when our flight times shifted, and more importantly, my pup was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. She can run on anxious side, so her even temperament is a testament to Theresa’s love and care! Lijah also loved Dozer the dog, which means he didn’t mind letting her hog momma for a little snuggle time. Thank you, Theresa! I’ve been using Rover for two years, and have had a few sitters. I recommend Theresa for boarding your pups.”
“As a pet parent, I always wonder if we should kennel or Rover, especially when we have a "needy/seperation anxiety" dog...Eronda exceeded our expectations, she truly loves/has huge heart for animals and commits her time to the animal rescue mission...all of the pics provided proved she spoiled our pet... Would recommend!”
“Kim was so accommodating with me. Willow was going to arrive around 2pm, then 4pm and then after 5pm as our drive and lunch stop took longer than expected. Willow is not used to other dogs since she is an only dog at home and can get quite stressed but she was great when I picked her up and Kim and her husband updated me with pictures with her on their laps and outside. She was always very prompt to respond. Nice big back yard which Willow loves. Overall, it was a great experience - way better than a kennel.”
“Victoria is a great a sitter! She took care of our anxious pup for 6 days and constantly updated us so throughout his stay. She is extremely understanding, kind and sweet. I felt comfortable he was in great hands throughout my trip.”
