“We can’t recommend Lorri highly enough! You can tell she truly loves and cares for our dogs as her own, and that provides us such a sense of comfort. She’s the most thoughtful caregiver for them, and her hilarious updates throughout the stay are the absolute best. Consider yourself lucky if your pups get to stay with Lorri!”
“Emma is a true gem when it comes to pet sitting. With her genuine love for animals and her exceptional skills, she stands out as the best in the field. Whether it's a playful pup or a finicky feline. Much love and appreciation to my pet.”

“Saawan and Kangna were the best!! Our corgi is a lot to handle sometimes, being a high energy breed, with his barking, and corgi habits. And they did such a great job with him. He came home happy and tired. We loved the regular updates they sent and were so happy to see pictures always popping up while we were on our trip. We loved their communications and flexibility when we had a 5 minute delay picking up. We will sure be adding Saawan and Kangna to the top of our list for sitters.”

“Saira was amazing! Ddoya had such a good time at the house and came back home so happy and relaxed! Gave me a lot of updates with the dog and is very communicative. She's willing to discuss any kind of adjustments or specifics for the pup. Overall, fantastic experience!”


“We have used Vanessa services three times now and each time has been wonderful! Our dog gets lots of play time with other dogs (and a couple cats - sometimes lol). Knowing that Vanessa also has vet tech experience also gives me a piece of mind while we are away. I highly recommend her!”

“Barbara is a great awesome caregiver for my Maggie. She kept us updated every day and it seemed like Maggie probably didn’t wanna come home cause barber shows a lot of love towards animals. I would recommend her highly.”

“Misty and Josiah were absolutely phenomenal!! They loved on our pup like she was their own. Rubicon had huge smiles in all the pics they sent and looked so content and happy. Could not have asked for a better Rover partner!! We highly recommend Misty!!!!”

“This was my first time leaving my pup since adopting him earlier this year. We did a meet and greet with Juliann and her family to make sure it would be a good fit all around. Marty is a timid and skittish dog and they tried to make him feel comfortable. I am sure it was challenging, especially given his love for walks and the extreme heat. Juliann was great with communication and provided pics and updates during his stay.”

“Leila really showed my dog a good time and was very responsive and sweet. My flight back into town was super late and rather than it be a huge inconvenience, she took my dog to the beach! I will definitely connect with her again for future pup care. Thank you! Morgan”

“Stephanie was absolutely wonderful with our pup. He is a nervous dog, but settled right in and was so well cared for. I appreciated the daily updates to see how he was doing.”

“If I could leave 100 stars I would! Anu was so kind and took such good care of our dog! She was constantly sending me pictures and videos and I could tell she enjoyed having our dog around. I will definitely reach out to her again if I need another dog sitter!!”

“Daniel was a knight in shining armor for our family. Our original sitter had a family emergency and we had a flight to catch. Daniel was accommodating and made my pup feel at home with lots of walks and belly rubs. Daniel and his family will definitely be our go to for pet sitting!”

“Lyssette kept me updated with pictures and video my whole trip. We used her our first time using rover and she did a wonderful job and my dog was very happy when she got home. We used to take my dog to boarding places but after it made her super sick last time we decided to try out rover and I’m glad we did because it was a very good experience.”


“Andrea was great! Upon meeting her I instantly felt comfortable and confident that she would be wonderful to take care of my dog River. She loves your pet like it is her own. My dog came back to me happy and tired! She is communicative, sends photos and gave our golden retriever walks. I could tell by pictures she sent that River felt at home with her.”

“We had to leave town suddenly due to a family emergency and our original dog sitter dropped out on us literally AS we were dropping Juno off. Karlee came through for us at the absolute last minute and made it possible for us to still catch our flight the next morning. She sent us lots of picture and video updates and seeing our dog happily playing with hers felt like medicine amidst all the stress. It was such a comfort to know Juno was being well loved while we were gone. Thank you Karlee!”

“Aliina is amazing!! She took amazing care of our pup Zion and provided great pupdates & photos while we were on our trip. Zion was happy and cared for. Thanks again!”

“Lajetta is wonderful! She sent me photos and updates throughout so I was never worried about how my dog was doing. She was very easy to communicate with and my dog loved her.”

Lorri provided absolutely amazing care for my sweet Addi. Her space is perfect for dogs of all shapes and sizes and energy levels. Lorri went above and beyond to make Addi feel welcomed and happy. She spent time quality time with Addi and ensures she had the perfect balance of play and rest. Lorri sent regular pictures and clever updates, which was greatly appreciated (and fun)! Truly top notch care! I recommend Lorri to anyone and Addi is excited to visit again some day. Thanks Lorri!

Allison and her family were fantastic! They were so caring and loving to our dog Bella! She for her ACL 4 days before we had to leave. Allison was more than happy to giver her her meds twice a day. I got pictures and updates everyday. Bella was excited to see us come home but obviously was very loved while we were gone as she was a happy girl when we picked her up. We are booking another stay with her in September!

Omg! Katri and her two doggy kiddos were amazing! She sent out updates through out the day with pictures and videos which I love! Kyro had a blast with them! And katri was so sweet and amazing and probably the one of the best sitter I have come across! She definitely made him feel safe and took such good care of my baby!! Highly highly recommend her!
