“Jeff was absolutely fantastic with Zephyr and it definitely was clear that zeph had a great time! Jeff was very communicative and spent plenty of time to get to know both me and Zeph on a meet and greet prior to our stay. He sent plenty of pictures and updates and catered to zephyrs routine which I'm so beyond grateful for! Zeph will absolutely be visiting his now Uncle Jeff again soon! Thank you so much for being so great with Zephyr!!!”
“Evie was amazing. We had a 6 night trip and she was able to help watch our 1 year old Dutch Shepherd. Large backyard which is great for the pup to run around in as well. We will definitely ask again when we go on another trip!”

“As always, Matt is a fantastic dogsitter. He took great care of our Dalmatian and Dachshund while we were out of the country, even giving extra love and TLC to our little girl when she had some tummy upset.”

“This was the longest time I've been away from my pup and Michelle did another amazing job. He always looks like he's having the best time with Milo and I appreciate all the updates and pictures they send! So happy to have found a great sitter for my boy!”


“First time leaving our Bella (for a 10 day vacay) so anxiety was through the roof with just the thought of leaving her. After meeting Cyndi I knew I found the perfect person and WOW did she ever exceed my expectations. Cyndi is so easy to worth it and”

“She was so accommodating for us. We picked Coda up much later than intended but she worked with us. I got so many pictures during his stay and he literally looked like he was smiling! I would definitely recommend”

“This is my second time using Nicole for boarding my golden retriever. Her home is well equipped for dogs and she takes great care of them. Timely communicator and I would recommend!”

“We are newer to the area and this was our first time needing a dog sitter. Lauren was very responsive and wonderful. She also sends lots of great photos and takes lots of walks. Hopefully she will be available again if and when we need a dog sitter.”

“Michaela was absolutely fantastic with Zephyr and it was so clear he had such a great time with her this weekend! During our stay she sent tons of pictures to keep me updated on what Zeph was up to and was very communicative throughout the whole rover process. We met ahead of time during a meet and greet where Zeph got tons of time to get to know his new aunt Michaela and vice versa and it was clear to see how great she was with handling him from the start. We will absolutely be back and are so happy to have met you! Thanks so much for taking such great care of Zephyr!”
“Myrna is a lifesaver. My sitter canceled on me last minute and Myrna was available within the hour. Ellie usually is pretty shy in new places but she warmed up to Myrna quickly and had a great time.”

“Donetta did an outstanding job reassuring me Lucy was enjoying herself. Helped put my mind at ease. She was also very accommodating for what we needed for drop off and pickup. We will definitely be sending Lucy to her for future trips. ❤️”


“This was our first time using Rover and I was very apprehensive on using the service; until we met Hilary!! She was so welcoming and accommodating with our dog, not to mention extremely professional. Our dog had a great time, she was well exercised and we will definitely use her in the future. A+++++”

“Cope absolutely loved being watched by Sarah! She sent plenty of pictures of him relaxing with his new friends on the couch and outside. Would definitely use her again in the future!”

“Aaren & Jordon were the absolute best!! Our pup is a nervous / shy girlie, but she warmed up to them about immediately!! ❤️ She stayed for a long weekend while we were out of town. Aaren sent us photos and updates the whole time, and went above and beyond taking our girlie on runs / walks all around town!! She has been so sleepy ever since she got home and can tell she had the best time!! Will absolutely be using Aaren and Jordon for all of our upcoming trips. Can’t thank you enough! ❤️❤️”

“Extremely professional and kind! My boy looked so happy and comfortable in the pictures she sent, I didn’t worry at all while out of town. So quick and easy to pick up/dropoff, would book again!”

“Dylan came hone happy, healthy, clean, and tired from Alexandra O.'s with no complaints (other than we think he misses his new doggie friends)!”

“Above and beyond care for Princess! This sitter didn’t just watch our fur baby; they truly cared for her. Every detail was handled with so much compassion, and it showed in how calm and content Princess was when we returned. Our sweet Princess was treated like family. We received thoughtful updates and photos and videos that reassured us every day. Exceptional care for our sweet Princess. Reliable, kind, and very attentive. Knowing she was safe and happy gave us total peace of mind. An absolutely wonderful experience overall! She was punctual, communicative, and incredibly kind with our pet. It’s such a relief knowing your furry family member is in safe and loving hands. We will definitely book again. A wonderful experience from start to finish. Highly Recommend!!”

“Royal enjoyed his time with Ruben and friends. His items were together and the pictures proved to be a good time. He is home resting after a fun filled weekend stay. Thanks Ruben!”
