“Gail and Kris are simply the best! They are loving, generous, attentive, considerate, communicative, and just wonderful humans. They go the extra mile to ensure their fur friends have a great time. They have cared for our dog several times now and she clearly loves them very much! Thank you Kris and Gail for being amazing!”

“My Golden had a wonderful 2 week stay with Karen. She sent videos and pictures everyday. Her whole family is so sweet and she has a beautiful property! Will definitely use her in the future.”

“Outstanding care was provided for my Golden retriever. I'm eager to book another reservation because my dog was so happy when she was with this very kind family! She enjoyed meeting their friendly dog, Dell, and she loved playing with Dell in their large backyard. Communication with James and Nicolette was also great and they were very accommodating when I arrived late to pick-up, due to a snowstorm.”
“Chris is an amazing dog sitter! I had such a great experience with Chris! He is so nice, friendly, and truly cares about the pets he watches. While I was on vacation, he sent me videos and photos of my dog Isabella, which gave me such peace of mind. Chris took excellent care of her, and when I picked her up she looked happy, relaxed, and refreshed. I will definitely use his services again for dog sitting — he’s amazing! Thanks again Chris!”
“Jason is amazing as always! We had a last minute request and he was very accommodating. This time our pup stayed with him and Jason was absolutely fantastic. Jason kept us updated with regular messages and photos, and it was clear our furry companion was comfortable and well cared for.

We’ll definitely be booking with Jason again, and I’d recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and professional sitter.”
“Tanya and her whole family were absolutely wonderful with our dog, Pippa! She felt right at home from the moment she arrived, and they provided the best care possible. We loved receiving the photo updates Tanya sent—it was so reassuring to see how happy and comfortable Pippa was while we were away. Thank you, Tanya, for creating such a kind and loving environment for our pup. We were able to truly relax and enjoy our trip knowing that Pippa was safe, happy, and so well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”

All I can say is “WOW”. What an incredible job Katherine did with Toby! He was extremely well cared for and Katherine took him on walks and spent time with him. She sent us regular updates and videos of him with her. We were traveling and were 1000 miles away and none of us had to worry about him. We knew that he was safe, well cared for and appreciated.
Khushboo took wonderful care of Kylo during his week-long stay. She kept me updated daily with messages and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Kylo looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for the entire time. It’s clear she paid close attention to his needs and made sure he stayed healthy and comfortable. I’d absolutely trust her with him again!
OMG, if Maria could handle my “bipolar” and “not friendly to strangers” French Bulldog “Fito,” this means she is the bestest dog caregiver. She was caring and loving, and when I went to pick Fito up, she asked me when I was going again on vacation. One of her messages said “I just wanted to say thank you again for trusting me with Fito 🐶 I really enjoyed taking care of him.” Trust me, Fito is not easy. He is very lazy and likes to sunbathe and cuddle which makes him a low maintenance dog. But he is epileptic which means he can have a seizure, and he growls at other dogs and is anxious/aggressive (barking) if someone other than my household and my parents tries to pet him. This makes him too a high maintenance dog. I like to say “I am friendly and you can pet me but I can’t say the same about Fito.” Granted, another Rover caregiver who saw Fito gave me the bestest trick. When he saw Fito (during a pre-visit at a park) and Fito was barking at him, he told me “give me his leash.” I was hesitant at first because I didn’t want Fito to bite him but as soon as he took over Fito’s leash, Fito somehow calmed down as if Fito was thinking “hmmm this stranger now is holding my leash, I’d better be nice since I am under his controls.” I was pleasantly surprised. Thank you to this other Rover Caregiver for illuminating my mind. So when it was Maria’s turn to meet Fito (I had set up many meet and greet with a few Rover dog caregivers), I told her about the new found trick and she too was able to handle Fito. Maria, you are the bestest. You took care of Fito like if he was your very own baby and even had to endure watching a couple of seizures, and clean his crate (as he occasionally poops or pees). You r the bestest. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.
Iris took care of my dogs over the Christmas holiday. Prior to the stay, she provided me with a detailed form for notes on the care and feeding of each dog. I received pictures & updates during their stay. They were well-taken care of, and I am very happy with the service. Will definitely contact Iris the next time I take a trip.
Gena was an excellent pet sitter. She was very responsive to messages and provided daily updates with pictures. Our Yuki was well cared for, receiving plenty of walks and playtime. I felt completely at ease knowing Gena was trustworthy and even asked me to write down on all my instructions with regards to our fur baby’s care. . Yuki was happy and healthy when we picked him up. Highly recommend Gina for her professionalism and care. And would definitely use her service again. October 10-16, 2025
