“Rebecca is great! She was immediately available, and communicated very well. She sent us pictures of our dog every day and a video, which showed our dog playing with her dog in the fenced yard. That made me see that my puppy was having a great time. I definitely recommend her as an excellent, experienced pet sitter.”


“Tex really enjoyed his time with Sarah! He had plenty of play time with doggy friends which he loves and we got regular updates and photos from Sarah! Thank you for taking such great care of him!”



“Heather is so sweet and clearly loves what she does. She’s particular and prepared in all the ways that make you confident leaving your pups. Very communicative and flexible. Thank you SO much!”


“Traci was amazing and wonderful! I am so glad to have found her. She sent me photos and updates and made me feel comfortable about leaving my baby with her. I would definitely use her again and recommend to everyone.”


“Candice took very great care of Lucky, he was treated like one of her own. We will be coming back whenever we need her assistance agian. Great Communication and Professionalism. Thank you so much.”



“Stephen graciously boarded both my dog and cat while our home was listed for sale. He sent many photos and updates! My dog also played outside a ton in his back yard and went on multiple walks a day.”


“Moneya was fanatic and took of our dog wonderfully when we were unable to have our friends care for our dog. As a new Rover user, we were hesitant about what it would be like, but Moneya put us at ease. She sent us pics of our dog everyday and kept in touch and remained very flexible to his needs. Just because someone does not have a lot of reviews does not make them poor quality. Moneya is top notch! We would totally use her services again!”


“Maria was on time when I brought the dogs to her home. Both dogs felt comfortable with Maria and her son. While both dogs were there, I received notifications that kept me updated on how the dogs were doing and the activities Maria took them to. When I picked up the dogs, they looked very happy and relaxed. Kudos to Maria for her excellent service! I will have her board my dogs when I get another opportunity.”


“Marck was very responsive, and sent timely updates and photos of my two doggies while I was away. Dogs were fine when I got them, and they didn't show signs of anxiety like they did during their stay at other sitters. Overall, my experience was good ? Thanks Marck”


“Dayana and her family are wonderful sitter’s! They treat Bella like family and have given her the nickname “Queen Bella”’. Communication is great - I receive morning and evening updates with pictures and videos. I recommend Dayana/Sonia 100% and will be using them as my dog sitters going forward.”


“Excellent caregivers! They sent pics and vids of my dog playing and sleeping with Maggie. I was not worried in the least! I will use them again absolutely! I highly recommend!”


“Patricia took the best care of my little mini doxin! It’s so comforting to know that your fur baby is in good hands when you are out of town or have a busy day and don’t want your pup to be alone for too long! I love knowing my girl is having an amazing time with her because she sends frequent updates with pictures! It was such a relief knowing my girl was taken care of while I was on vacation. My pup cannot wait to go back so I will definitely be contacting Patricia in the future! :) 10/10 recommend”



“We were thrilled with the super service Jenn provided for our dog. We got regular pictures and updates reassuring us all was great. She gave our dog lots of walks and attention. Midnight returned home happy and there was no stress throughout drop-off, pick-up, etc. I highly recommend Jenn B. and look forward to using her service again.”


“I just had my dogs at her house for this weekend. She was amazing. She picked up my dogs from my house and even dropped them off for me. She is very flexible and will work with you. She sent me pictures throughout the day without even me having to ask, which shows that she really cares. They were able to play outside in her yard with the other pups and she made my pups feel like they were home away from home. I highly recommend her, you will not regret it!! Look no further, Vanessa is your girl!!”


“Salma took great care of Chuck while we were away! She did a great job understanding Chuck’s needs and proclivities (and was sensitive to some of his food-obsessive behaviors as she has a large dog with similar tendencies). She was very communicative throughout his stay, sending regular updates and pics and assuring us all was well. Chuck was happy and tired when he came home, which we took as a sign he enjoyed himself. Will definitely consider Salma again in the future if we have need for a longer-term sitter!”


“Elcy always does an amazing job taking care of our dog Lucy! She’s very active and whenever we come to take her home she’s exhausted from all the fun she had. She sends updates throughout the stay and I would absolutely trust her with our dog again.”
