“Mowgli had a wonderful time. We were nervous leaving Mowgli since this was his first time being away. But everything turned out good, Robert took good care of him. Highly recommend him.”


“Alissa was perfect! We felt bad because our Internet went out for a few hours but she was understanding. She left our house cleaner than when we left. And most importantly, she took such great care of our dog! She made sure he was fed, walked, and loved on. We’ll absolutely have her back!!”

“Savannah was great! She stayed in touch before, during and after her stay. Cody was calm as could be when we got home so we know he was completely unstressed in our absence. Will definitely use Savannah again!!”
“Heaven was great at watching our 4 cats and 2 dogs in our home while we spent a week in Florida! It was our first try at using Rover to book someone to watch our pets in our home and we are very pleased. Heaven stayed in touch with us during our trip to ask question and provide updates and took great care of our pets and house. We will be using her again on future trips.”
