“Julie is amazing! She sends lots of updates and photos, which I appreciate. I’m so glad I found someone who takes such good care of my dog while I’m out of town.”


“Megan is very thoughtful caring and clearly loves animals. She went above and beyond when our dog was frightened by storms. Megan stayed with our pup all night, comforting her. Megan is very attentive, took lots of pictures and gave us updates on how our pup was doing. Our dog came home happy and tired( from all the play she had!) It was a very good experience for us and our pet. Definitely 10 star treatment of our dog! Would highly recommend her!”


“This was our first time leaving our dog with anyone other than family and we’re very happy with how things went! From the moment we dropped her off I could tell she was in great hands. We will definitely book with her again. She’s great at sending updates and pictures which always eases the mind.”


“The pets are always so well taken care of when they go to Crystal's! This was a short visit, but it was invaluable so we could safely move without worrying about our babies.”



“She was wonderful! We had to book our Pitt to stay with her over the week and she sent us photos while we were away of updated on our boy. He was picked up and dropped off super easily and professional! She was very accommodating to the late notice as well!”


“This was Koa's second stay with Megan, and he seemed to be more comfortable the second time around. The pictures we received showed him opening up to Bruce more and playing well together. Koa is 1/7th the size of Bruce and Bruce was gentle playing tug of rope with him. Megan was communicative, and we received updates and a photo most days. Her teens seemed to love on him and he got all the snuggles he could want.”


“Sam was incredible! We had another sitter cancel on us last minute for a 3 night stay & Sam was more than happy to step in. She sent us lots of updates with the cutest photos and Thumper came home happy & exhausted! I’m a first time dog mom & get pretty anxious leaving him, but within a couple hours I knew he was in great hands. We’ll use Sam again for sure!”


“Gus came home exhausted! He came home just as he was dropped off. Her kids hugged on Gus before we left which can only make me think they loved on him and treated him as their own. This was our first use of Rover and we will more than likely use it again. Gus hasn’t ever really been around other dogs and she allowed him to adjust and said he did great with them. Highly recommend and will use her again in the future.”


“Chloe is amazing!!! Jake was abused and abandoned before we adopted him in May. This is the first time we have left him. Upon entering Chloe‘s home it was obvious Jake immediately felt comfortable, safe and was treated like a member of the family and spoiled with his favorite things to do just like if he were at his own home. Until Chloe, Jake would only lay next to me. I was so happy when I received a picture of him so content laying next to Chloe. It was great knowing he was in such wonderful, caring hands. I highly recommend Chloe and I personally will only trust Jake with her. Such a wonderful couple with true love & joy for animals.”


“AJ was wonderful with Lady! He kept me updated and sent lots of pictures. When Lady got sick he contacted us right away and was able to adjust her food type. He was also flexible when we needed to add a night. We would 100% use his services again.”


About: I'm Steve and I have my own very well behaved 5 year old chocolate lab named Beanie. I am new to Rover, but have references from friends that I have pet sat, watched and walked. I'm pretty flexible at the moment, but do occasionally have conflicting doctor appointments. I can come to your house for walks, feedings but cannot stay the night. I have a fenced yard, pet door to the back yard, a sweet chocolate lab, a helpful mother and a good neighborhood. Call me and see if we're a good fit!

“Lauren was an outstanding pet sitter! She took care of my two large dogs while I was away, and they had a great time while at her house. I could tell that Lauren treated my dogs just like family. When I arrived to pick them up, they were enjoying their stay with Lauren. In fact, Even though they were excited to see me when I returned, they seemed perfectly content at Laurens house. I would highly recommend Lauren for your pet sitting needs. I will definitely be sending my dogs back for another stay with Lauren!??”


About: I have had dogs as family for over 20+ years. From puppy to senior they have all been loved well. Your dogs will be well cared for with me. I am a stay at home mom, homeschooling my child. There will be plenty of time for walks, play, snuggles, and scratches. I would love to help my community this way by providing a safe caring place for your furry friends to stay while your away. I have a fenced in yard for them to run. I have two dogs of my own for them to play with, they are very friendly. We can crate and separate dogs if needed as well.

About: My oldest is Bubba 16yr 100 lb black lab mix and my youngest Harley 1yr 65 lb lab shepherd mix. Ive taken care of dogs/cats for over 20 years. I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is very flexible for boarding, daycare or just to drop in to make sure your furries are exercised and fed. I have a fenced in yard and a playful little girl doggo who will make sure your pet gets the exercise and attention they need. My dogs are spoiled with walks, playing frisbee, daily brushes, homemade food and treats. There is nothing better than getting to spend time with them everyday and would welcome the opportunity to look after your pup. Feel free to ask Bubba and Harley on how well they are treated!

About: I have taken care of pets since I was 9. I have raised several dogs from puppies to senior dogs. I am very well versed in potty training, bathing, and responsible play. For many years I have bathed and walked dogs for my family and friends in addition to taking care of my own. I absolutely love animals and look forward to giving yours all the love and attention it needs! I am a stay at home mom whose kids are all in school now. So that means I have a lot of free time for your pets! I currently have a dog who does not like other dogs, so staying at my house is unfortunately not an option. I do however love getting to visit other pets and thoroughly enjoy taking long walks with them or having a play session with them.
