“This is Obi's second time with Arlene and I can't say enough positive about her. She loves her pups and they love her. She treats them like they are her own, with so much care and attention. She sends loads of pictures and videos. It's clear how much Obi trusts her and enjoys being with her and her husband. I am so thankful to have found Arlene!”


“I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my dog, Alfie! Erica went above and beyond to make sure he felt loved and at home. She played ball with him every day (his absolute favorite thing in the world) and made sure he got plenty of exercise and attention. He also loved spending time with her dogs and the other pups she was caring for. She sent updates with pictures twice a day, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the photos and messages that Alfie was having the time of his life! He ate well, looked happy, and was clearly being treated like one of her own. Honestly, I was a little worried he might not want to come home! I highly recommend Erica to anyone looking for a thoughtful, attentive, and truly caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Carrie was WONDERFUL from the beginning of my initial inquiry to the end of Minnie’s stay. Communication was prompt and clear, she sent lots of pics and videos to show how and what Minnie was doing, and she was gracious with my old dog’s quirks. Min needed special feeding, and is very anxious in new situations so requires some patience. Carrie provided that and more, and Min settled into her home nicely. I truly appreciated and enjoyed my interactions with Carrie and her husband, and felt 100% confident leaving my pampered pet in their home during my trip. This was my first experience using Rover to find care for Min, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience!”
