“Lyndsey was fantastic! She took great care of my girl and kept me updated every day on how she was doing. She kept her active and I could tell she was well loved during her stay. I don't think my dog wanted to come home after all the fun she had with Lyndsey! I would highly recommend her and hope she is available for any of my future trips!”
“Allison & Nicholas are the best!!! They took such good care of my Deso. He couldn't have been in better care. They sent me pictures and kept me updated. Would recommend if you need a good sitter. Will definitely be using in the future as long as I am Ft Wayne. Thanks again.”
“Azure was very professional and understanding. I had a few hiccups and made a few mistakes using Rover for the first time. She was very understanding and helpful, and accommodating. Highly recommend. Some things came up and we had to extend our dogs stay. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thanks Azure!”
“Hope felt very comfortable with Katelin even before I left! Katelin sent lots of photos of Hope’s time with her and all the other doggos, and it was obvious Hope was possibly having an even better time than I was on my trip! 😂 I will absolutely have Hope stay with her again if needed in the future.”
“Lanae was wonderful to our pup. She was willing to take him last minute, which saved us from missing our vacation. She took the time to update us regularly, and responded to any question I had promptly. She gave him all the love and attention he requires and I’m very grateful for that. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”
“Heather was a wonderful sitter for my 11 month old puppy. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up. She was communicative and sent me photos and updates. I would definitely use her again.”
“Alex and Jayce were wonderful with our dog. So welcoming and very responsive. Our dog had a great time playing with their dogs. They sent great pictures and we could tell our dog was comfortable at their house. Would recommend to friends and family and will use them again!”
“My pup slept all night after I got her back so I know she had fun playing with the other pups. Good contact during the stay with photos. Happy with my visit and last minute availability.”
“Morgan was wonderful not only to set up but she treated my dog like she was hers during her stay.. Took her for a walk, had her dog available for playtime, sent pics, had plenty of toys for her to play with... We will be using her in the future as she is in a very convenient location for us along with how well she treated my dog, Thank You Morgan!!”
“Another job well done by Alexis! Wrigley loves to come see her! She even went above and beyond and got our dog her own little toy while we were gone for a week. They take Wrigley on walks and send daily updates. We love that she is loved on and played with while we’re away. Thank you! Highly recommend her!”
“Sara was amazing! I had another Rover in place for my trip over the holidays that fell through at the last minute. Sara answered my call for help immediately! (Not kidding — like within 5 minutes) I took Simon to the Vet a few days before I left to find he had an ear infection. Sara had no problem with needing to give him meds. She was a lifesaver. She’s bright and understanding and flexible, and she made sure Simon would get along with the other puppers in the house, introducing them slowly. She took great care of Simon and sent me updates and pictures. Thank you, Sara!!”
“Jett’s home away from home! We love being able to drop Jett off and know he’ll be well taken care of! We really enjoy all the pictures, videos and updates each day!”
“Lara and her gang are incredible! She had no issues with accomodating my short notice and my big pack of dogs. I'm pretty certain my dogs would have happily moved in. So. thank you Lara et al for making that 24 hours worry free. I can't wait to finally get to go home to Texas this summer!”
“Nan and her husband did a wonderful job watching our senior dog overnight. This is the first time I've left her with strangers and I was very anxious. Nan sent picture updates every couple of hours so I could relax and enjoy my trip.”
“April and her kids were great with Whiskey. He got plays with his favorite tug toy, and a nice walk. It was only for one night but she kept me updated with pictures and messages. I appreciated all of the updates. He came home exhausted and slept soundly the entire day.”
“Tiffany was able to take my dog on relatively short notice on a holiday weekend. My dog loves it there and we had one less thing to worry about while leaving town. Always grateful for Tiffany and Sam.”
About: I hope what the pets owners like is that I am verry responsible and enjoy the company of pets. I have a dogs and a cat which I treat them like family. I will also make sure that they dont feel homesick provinding them with a safe space. Last but not less important I will play with the dogs so they dont get bored or lonely. I enjoy all types of dogs but mostly a puppy or little dogs but can take care of bug dogs. I hope that you will feel okey with letting a family member eith me. I'm currently working part-time. I would have time to take care of the pups and give them lots of love. I'm also available during weekends. I think communication is key. I time to have schedule for them including feeding times and walk time. I also need list of allergies in case I make puppy treats.
“Kristen is our first choice when we need a place for our dog. Our dog loves going by Kristen. She is well taken care of and has so much fun meeting new friends. She sends updates and is very flexible with drop off and pick up. We will continue to use Kristen and recommend her to all our friends.”
“Jennifer cared for our Great Dane , Kamora. Kamora’s stay with Jennifer was perfect. Our dog enjoyed her stay, we received pictures and updates , and all of Kamora’s special needs were cared for. I highly recommend Jennifer for all pet care services she provides.”
