“This was our second time using June and we couldn't be happier! She takes such wonderful care of our dog—she’s thorough, thoughtful, and always keeps us updated with great photos and messages. It’s clear she loves him and treats him like her own. ❤️ Our dog absolutely adores his hour-long walks with June (which she asked about ahead of time). He always comes home happy and tired! He also loves having Cookie to play with, which is such a fun bonus! We truly wouldn’t trust our pup with anyone else. June is amazing!!”

“Choosing Carolyn to watch our fur babies was excellent choice. One of our dogs was a rescue so she gets anxious around new surroundings. It didn't take long for Bella to warm up to her. Our other one is a senior dog and Carolyn made sure to accommodate him too. They went on walks and was playful. Carolyn sent me numerous pics throughout the afternoon and evening so I felt really comfortable leaving our pups with her. She did a great job with them and I'm so glad we found such a wonderful sitter. We will definitely use Carolyn again!”

“Michelle was the best sitter we could ever dreamed of ! She has an amazing personality and a huge heart for dogs. That was a first time we left our Jax with the sitter, and he came back as happy as he can be , and even a little spoiled 😊. Michelle is very knowledgeable and detailed oriented, and she always follows your home routine. She treats every dog like her own , and gives them a lot of attention. The best sitter ever!”


“Shalyn, Joseph and their family were awesome with our Jazzi and Lady! Sadie, their dog is super friendly and easy going. They all got a long great! The kids pampered our fur babies and we're so gentle with them. Fenced in yard and plenty of room to run. They walked them regularly and updates were super. We are lucky to have found them here on Rover. Highly recommend!”

“Barlow enjoyed his stay at the “retreat”. He came home a calm and relaxed hound- I think he learned to meditate while he was there! He’s so chill now. Banks Derek!”
“Carisa did a wonderful job. She took really good care of my dog Simba. She was really attentive, and everything went off without a hitch. I could tell Simba was comfortable and happy, and it just gave me so much peace of mind. Overall, I’m really grateful for how smoothly it all went.” I would highly recommend her.”

“Christine is so good with Sparky. He is an older dog and we never worry about him while he is with Christine. She takes care of all of his needs and we can tell that he loves going there. I would highly recommend Christine.”

“Jill is an amazing and professional dog sitter! She picked up my dog right from my house and took wonderful care of him for an extended period of time. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. I highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for the best dog sitter!”

“My dog needed special care for a medical condition. Not only did Kathleen make sure he got his medications but she gave him lots of love, sent me daily pictures and updates, and introduced him to doggie friends that he loved. I would definitely have Kathleen care for my pet again.”

“Natalie was so awesome with my two dogs! They had a blast while at her house like they had their own vacation while we were on a trip. I loved how often she sent updates, pictures and videos. Her dog is also super sweet and got along with my dogs and I felt so happy they played so well and got along. She’s reliable and accommodating with adjusting times for pick ups and drop offs. I will definitely be having Natalie care for my dogs again for my next trip.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Katina! She was available last minute when I needed someone to watch my dog, and she went above and beyond. She provided great care, sent regular updates and photos, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. My dog absolutely loved her, and I could tell she was well cared for and happy. I’m so grateful to have found someone so reliable and kind—I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Thank you Judy for an outstanding experience for our beloved dog and for all of us. Your love and caring for Tesla was so wonderful. You communicated twice a day with pictures and updates and they were detailed and reassuring. We really looked forward to our mini chats. Your responsiveness was also great. We knew we could reach you at any time, not that we needed to 😊. You also provided a safe and happy environment for him and he loved being in your home. He was a truly contented pup while he was with you. Words cannot express how grateful we are to you, for providing a home away from home for our dog. Thanks also for grooming him and keeping him in a tip top condition. We cannot say enough about the wonderful service and care you provided. We enjoyed our vacation so much more knowing he was in the best care we could have arranged for him. Thanks again and any dog is lucky to have a home with you while their owners need to be away. We certainly were. I cannot recommend you enough. You are truly the best!!!! 🐕💕🙏🥰”

“Lyndsey was flexible and accommodating with our last minute request along with my dogs diet and meds. She kept us updated on Chewie with pictures and videos. It was evident how much he enjoyed his time there! Will definitely rebook with Lyndsey in the future.”

We are blessed to find an amazing trustworthy sitter for our fur baby. June is always our first preference to sit Murphy. We’re going to June pretty regularly for sitting and boarding. She’s amazing! Clear communication, understanding, polite, follows instructions, has clean environment and takes care of Murphy like her own pet!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Jill was super great. She took amazing pictures of the pups and sent them to us as an updatem they were vetter than any pictures that i habe ever taken. She has a nice little yard that is fenced in and she was super understanding and kind about our return travel being delayed causing us to get back to pick up the dogs later than we had originally planned. We would rebook her again in a heartbeat.

Highly recommend Holly for anyone needing a reliable and caring sitter. I felt at ease knowing my dogs was in good hands. My dogs were comfortable with her and her dogs. I have two dogs, the same poodle mix and age as her 2 dogs. She had a house full of cavapoo's and mine came back happy and exhausted from activity. I really appreciate the updates and photos. I’ll definitely be booking again!
