“My two standard poodles love going to Vivian's house for the day.....and for some reason they are so much better at home when we come back. Vivian you're the best. Vivian always gives us pictures with the other dog and calls Charlie an angel (but we know he's not)”
“Tina is great with our small dog, Timmy. Seeing how happy and comfortable our dog is when we drop him off lets us know that he loves it at her home. This trip he stayed almost 2 weeks while we were out of town, but he has also stayed for shorter visits 2-3 days. It gives us peace of mind knowing he is safe and cared for when he’s there. Thank you Tina!”
“10/10 🌟’s. First… her and Shawn (her partner) are cheerful, welcoming, loves animals and reassuring. They were flexible on pick up and drop off times.. Their home WOW 🤩, what a great area to live in - felt like an upscale resort in Havasu. The interior is soo clean 🧼, perfect amount of furniture and nothing for the dogs to get into. Will use them every time we come. ❤️”
“It was such a good relief when I finally met Jeannie in person before I was so sure to let my dog Boise with her for 5 days. Jeannie is a very nice and sweet lady . Her beautiful house has a big clean backyard and gated where dogs can go outside happily. My dog Boise looked happy when I was picking him up. It seemed he feels comfortable at Jeannie’s house and got along well with Jeannie’s dog Magnolia, She is such a beautiful and cute dog. I will let Jeannie take care Boise again in the future.”
“Cheryl was awesome with our dogs, Dobry and Lady! She was super friendly and kept us updated the whole time we were gone, which really helped us relax. It was clear she genuinely cared about them and made sure they were happy and well taken care of. We’ll definitely be using her again next time we need a sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Best dog sitter ever! Even though my dog is old and blind ( pomeranian mix) she got so much attention from the family. I will use sherif everytime, my dog was so well taken care of!”
“Tamerah, was able to accept Toto our small terrier mix, with no notice. We wanted to go to Vegas for one night. She was able to care for Toto! Along with send us continuous updated photos of how great Toto was doing! Thank you for taking care of Toto.”
“Awesome first time experience for my guys.. Vanessa went above and beyond my expectations with communication, pictures and videos! You will not be disappointed with her as your pet sitter!!”
“Trisha was stupendous. My husband and I were gone 3 1/2 weeks to Europe in October. From the island of Malta, to Italy and The Black Forest of Germany, she kept us apprised with photos in texts and emails about their travels and adventures together! Not too much - just enough. Piper had a few skin issues and Trisha promptly visited our vet and procured the proper medication and treatment, along with great communication. It made us feel connected and secure that our little pet was in the perfect place while we were so far away. No worries if you use Trisha, I promise!”
About: I am a former substitute teacher and child home daycare provider and now want to care for your dog. I have had pets for 20+ years and attended dog training for my dog. I have cared for many pets for friends and family in the past, from German Shepards to Chihuahuas, I groom, administrator meds, exercise and more importantly, cuddle. Knowing how picky I am with my dog, I believe in following your special instructions exactly to make your pet as comfortable as possible while you are away, and treating them like my own, either at your home or mine. My home has a small fenced yard. I allow free indoor/outdoor access for you pet or strictly indoor (with party breaks, according to your instructions. Your pet will be well cared for and protected with me. My husband and I are active retirees. We enjoy outdoor activities, weather permitting. My schedule is flexible. I do not work or have other obligations. I provide companionship and attention as needed for each pets individual needs. Utmost importance is the safety of each dog during walks or car rides to the neighborhood grassy park, backyard time or inside.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was young family members and neighbors have trusted me to take care of the dogs such as walking bathing and feeding I work part time so I have a lot of free time on my hands just tell me the time and date availability is pretty flexible I like to go on hikes or go for walks to the parks for exercise and have an apartment that I could also watch there
“Laurie is amazing and took great care of my dogs. She sent me photos everyday of them which helped me with the separation anxiety. I will definitely utilize Laurie’s services again.”
“Lauren was amazing. We have never had to leave our baby with a stranger but she made us feel so comfortable and confident that Penny was in good hands. She sent regular pics with Penny playing and wagging her tail. I would definitely recommend Lauren to care for your pets.”

Gina S.
“Gina is amazing. She is our “go to” when we need someone to watch our fur babies. She has watched them both at her home and in ours. She showers our pets with attention, love and kindness. While in our home, she kept the house neat and tidy and stayed in communication with us, eliminating the stress of leaving the dog, cats and house behind. She is trustworthy, reliable and careful follow all instructions. On the days we drop off at her house, Oscar is always excited to see her and receive all the attention she gives him. I look forward throughout the day for the pictures she sends of all the adventures they em”bark” on. I highly recommend Gina to care for your pet.”

Desert Hills dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ryder is the exact Rover stay your pets are looking for. It was so important to me that my dog Cali was not caged or surrounded by tons of other dogs at once. Ryder and his wife were more than happy to accommodate her with open arms to their beautiful, safe home. We couldn’t have asked for better care. He treated our dog like his own. Cannot recommend him enough :) Thank you both!
