“Araceli was an excellent host for my guy OTIS. She provided plenty of pictures and comments that made me feel comfortable and assured that he was getting excellent care. He seemed to enjoy interacting with her pups and came home a happy camper.”

“Matt was absolutely incredible! He stayed with our dog Nipsey for 3 days. Communication was outstanding, we got daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us total peace of mind. Will definitely rebook again!”

“Very responsive in text. I was incredibly grateful for her taking us on last minute. Very polite my dog loved her and felt comfortable and for a very timid dog that’s saying a lot”

“Michael was so incredibly kind and made the drop off and pick up very easy! He was on top of sending pictures and updates of how my pup was doing, which I absolutely loved receiving while I was on my trip!! Makes your mind rest at ease knowing our fur babies are well taken care of, will book again with him!”

“This was my first time using Rover and it was great! Ken was so kind with all of the right questions about Hope and what I could expect. He provided me with updates daily and lots of pictures. I will definitely use him again and recommend him to my friends”
“Alan & Joe were great with our dogs. They sent photos and videos to keep us updated throughout the week. The boys got lots of love and many walks! The pups were happy and stress free during their stay.”

“Lynn was fabulous! Our Sugar Baby came home from a week stay with a wonderful disposition. No stress at all. That’s the best compliment anyone can give a caregiver. Thanks, Lynn!”

“Geri was the best! Don't be fooled by her stern-looking profile photo; she is anything but! Super stylish and kind, with a huge heart. Our Roxy was very happy with her stay with Geri, and her home is beautiful, and every detail was accounted for in making it super doggy friendly. Her lil pup is also very sweet and got along very well with our picky, not-usually-a-dog-person dog, Roxy, which says a lot. Anyway, look no further, we highly recommend choosing Geri for your doggy needs!!”

“Jackson and his family were great at taking care of my pup last minute. So thankful to have found him. Shelby was very happy and calm while I was out which is not always the case for her. But great care and communication for the short stay with them. Thank you!!!”

“Katherine and her daughter were amazing with my two Frenchies. We were out of town for a week and the dogs came back so happy and healthy. Photos were sent every night, I would give her 10 stars if I could.”

“Kevin, is an exceptional pet sitter, he provided top-notch care and thoughtfulness for our beloved furry companion. From the moment we met him, his warmth, humor and friendliness welcomed our dog to him right away. He displayed great affection and expertise in caring for our pet. Kevin's thoughtful daily updates and photos not only provided peace of mind but also filled us with joy and comfort. We returned from our trip to find our dog content and happy. I highly recommend Kevin's services and will definitely be entrusting our pup to his care again!”
“kevin was very attentive and wanted to make sure he kept our pups’ routine the same. he was patient with our nervous pup. his pups were excellent with our dogs too. he is very responsive. would book with kevin again!”


“I couldn't be happier with Larry's care of the kids and neither could the kids. My elderly Westie came home very perky after his stay. The lab had a new friend to play with and our little girl was treated like the princess she thinks she is. I highly recommend Larry to sit your furry friends.”

“This was our first time using Rover instead of boarding and our experience was fantastic. Brandon sent texts twice a day with pictures on how Lola was doing. We were able to enjoy our stay in palm springs without worrying about Lola. If we stay in palm springs again we will definitely use again.”

“Katie is such a pro! It was our first time leaving our dog but from the very start Katie made us feel like we were in good hands. She clearly loves dogs! I like that she gave us updates with pictures. I feel good knowing we have someone we can depend on in the future.”

“My Bernedoodle- Hattie had the best time with “Bo” the sitter, and Oreo the dog! I had my dog groomed before dropping her off, and they split her nail when trimming it. Bo, immediately put a clear cone of shame on her. And kept cleaning the area up and applied bedydine on the area. I picked her up last night, she was happy but limping. Took her to her Vet this afternoon, the Vet said, everything he did helped with a great outcome! Thank you Bo & Oreo! We will see you soon!”

We were so fortunate to have Aricela watch our foster dog when we had to travel out of the area u expectedly. She accommodated a last minute meet & greet and patiently listened to everything we knew about the dog. She was kind in her interactions with our pup. When we took him back to board he was like a confident kindergartner…one look over his shoulder and away he went! She kept us apprised of how he was doing & send photos to validate it. Thank you so much Araceli.

We are so happy that we found Corrine! After visiting with her at our meet and greet, we felt very confident she would be an excellent caregiver for our dog. We left Ollie there for 5 nights and Corrine was good at communicating with pics and updates during his stay. When we picked him up, he was calm and relaxed. Thanks Corrine, see you next time.

Our Pet sitter backed out at last minute-looked online and found Rover-Called three numbers and all three answered back in a timely manor. After interviewing all 3, only one, Mary could accommodate our needs. After meting Mary, we knew she was the perfect person for our dog and immediately made our reservation. Mary was the BEST! We are so grateful she was able to care for our dog. I would highly reccommend her to anyone who has a dog big or small. Our dog is over 70 pounds and she did a perfect job. Thank You so much for your service.
Angelica took wonderful care of our sweet little Ivy, who had never been left alone with a dog sitter, other than friends and family. Angelica was kind and loving, recognizing that Ivy was initially a bit out of sorts and a wee bit nervous. Thank you Angelica for giving Ivy lots of love while we were away. It made our trip so much easier! 😊
Junebug and Firefly seemed to have such a great time from the moment with left them with Ken and David! We got a number of adorable photo updates, and the dogs were nice and chill when we picked them up. We loved that their front and back yards were super secure so the dogs could come and go from the backyard as they pleased. We would definitely leave the pups with Ken and David again!

Dola was great about sending updates and photos which gave us peace of mind while traveling. Especially importsnt is that she is very diligent and trustworthy about giving medicines to our pups. When we returned, we found the dogs happy and healthy and; our house clean and tidy . No hesitation at all about employing Dola again. Highly recommend her.
