“She was absolutely lovely. My baby seemed very happy and comfortable with her, even though it was my first time leaving him. She kept me updated with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I would definitely book with her again if I ever need a pet sitter. I won’t look anywhere else. Thank you so much!”

“Joerg and Lake were fantastic with our pup! You can tell they are really kind hearted people who love animals. We got regular updates and felt super comfortable during our trip knowing Sully was in good hands. Will definitely be re booking with them!!”

“Julia was absolutely amazing! She took my girl Luna on a last minute notice, and treated my dog like her own. She sent me several updates and made sure my dog was having a great stay. She also gifted Luna with a ball which was really nice. So thankful to have found a great sitter. Thank you julia!”

“Sophia & Andy sent plenty of photos during Shiloh’s stay and he looked very comfortable with them! Will definitely book with them again in the future! Thank you!”


“Yeju was great!! She gave an update each day with pictures and took my pup on plenty of walks. She even baked some dog treats to share when picking up. 10/10 would book again!”

“This was our first time using Rover and I’m so happy we found Alexandra. She was communicative, sent a picture daily and was quick to respond to messages. Our babies seemed very happy when coming home which is not the norm. When we’ve boarded them before, they’ve usually come back sad and looking very upset. Not this time…They looked happy!! I will definitely reach out to Alexandra again when we need to board our babies.”

“Had Chad again take care of my girl, Olive. As always, Chad and his wife take such good care of her and they are incredibly flexible, easy-going, and responsible. They are great!”

“Yahret and her family showed Diesel a great time while I was away. They treated him like he was their family dog and gave him plenty of attention. I'd recommend Yahret to anyone with a dog who needs a caring person to watch them during a trip.”

“Keit took great care of Bumi while we were away for a long weekend. He has some back issues and Keit was great about carrying him up and down the stairs.”

“This was our first time using Rover and Clarissa made this a wonderful experience. Communication was great and she will tailor to your pups personality and needs! She was warm and friendly and I am pretty sure my pup wanted to stay a little longer. 😆”

“Katie was a great sitter. She frequently updated and let me know how my dog was. He seemed every happy at her place. Her dog is always very friendly and got along just fine with mine. Thanks again :)”

“They were easy to communicate with and Bowie seemed to be having fun! They sent me pictures daily and were responsive. I felt comfortable leaving my dog with them and would use them again.”

“Peter was very communicative throughout Manjus visit. Manju came back a happy but tired puppy. Peter was also flexible when I needed an extra day for Manju to stay, which was really nice. It was also nice to see Manju interacting with another dog.”

“We had a wonderful experience! Great communication, received lots of updates and photos, and we could see that our dog was happy, comfortable, and relaxed during her stay. Highly recommend John and Ryan!”

Abby was great with Gus and took amazing care of him! She was kind, extremely communicative and kept me updated on how Gus was settling in. Her dogs are the sweetest and they all got along very well. They have a nice little enclosed area that is great for the pups. We will definitely use her again!

Clarissa was fantastic! She took fantastic care of my clingy Chihuahua during his 9 night stay in her home. We recently moved to the area and didn't have any local friends/family to watch our dog while we went on vacation, so this was the first time I'd ever left him with a stranger for extended periods of time. We were a bit nervous of the idea at first, but after the meet and greet we knew the vibes were right he would be in good hands. He fit right in with Clarissa's household. I am obsessed with my boy, but I feel like he somehow got even more attention while in her household than in mine. Great communication and lots of cute photos, I would bring him back to Clarissa in a heartbeat.

Alex and Elizabeth were absolutely amazing to work with for our boy, Leo, from the meet and greet through his stay. They were so understanding when we had a last minute change of plans and so flexible to accommodate our needs. They were awesome with communicating and we loved having so many updates that Leo was enjoying his time! We will definitely be booking with them again, and would highly recommend them to anyone

Our pups had a wonderful stay with Sarah! She thoughtfully and lovingly cared for our two dogs — one who is still a very rambunctious puppy — over the coldest weekend this winter. We appreciated the frequent updates throughout their stay. We were able to rest easy while away knowing they were in great hands. We’d absolutely recommend and book again.

Paulina was amazing with Archie! She asked thoughtful questions ahead of time to understand his routine and make sure he’d be comfortable, which I really appreciated. She sent updates during his stay, and when we picked him up he was happy, relaxed, and perfectly tired — clearly a sign he had a great time. I would absolutely book with Paulina again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter.
