“Jessie took great care of my senior beagle. We had a meet and greet beforehand and his two dogs accepted my old guy just fine. He sent me pics and updates everyday and even kept my dog an extra night because I was delayed getting back. I would highly recommend Jessie. He is kind and really cares a lot about animals. I won’t hesitate to use him again if the need arises.,”
“Thank you so much for caring for Banks. It was our first time using Jamie and Brian, but Banks came back happy and very tired from playing. Hope to use you again!”
“Excellent experience! Jacque was great with our dog! He stayed in constant communication with pictures and texts. Our dog was so content there and came back incredibly relaxed and happy. I Would absolutely use him again!”
“I have a very high energy, 120 lb German Shepherd, and I worry about boarding him because of his initial impression. I cannot say enough good things about Jess & Christopher. They set up a meet and greet so we were able to meet them, and their dog, before his stay. They were flexible with drop off and pick up times, excellent communication through his stay, gave him medication as requested, and did everything possible to make it a great experience overall. I’m getting ready to book Coopers will definitely be staying with them again, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter!”
About: We've had 2 dogs who have unfortunately left us. Mickey was an 80 pound pit bull that I did everything with - walking, running, hiking,sleeping, traveling. I still miss him every day. One year after his passing we adopted a senior (9 yo) pit bull mix, Bella. Shortly after adopting Bella she was found to have heartworm. We were able to nurse her through the treatments back to health. Bella was a lazy girl who didn't have the energy level Mickey did but she was sweet and we spoiled her the 2 years we had her. I miss having a dog but my wife said "no more." Providing a service through Rover will help me get my "dog fix." Although I have used to pronoun "we" in my pet care experience that refers to our past 2 dogs. Going forward I will be the sole provider. I am retired so I have all kinds of free time to provide daily walks and the option for having overnight stays in our home. We have had dogs for 13 or so years and I am very capable in providing the care and attention to safely provide for them.
“Jessica and her family were so great with my little girl I’d use them again and again! Great communication. Super understanding. Felt so safe and comfortable. I can’t thank them enough!”
“I had a fantastic experience with Carol. She took excellent care of my two dogs, providing constant updates that kept me at ease throughout. Her attentiveness and communication made the entire experience comfortable and worry-free.Highly recommend! A wonderful setter.”
“Deb was amazing! Our pup felt super comfortable at her place and we felt comfortable knowing he was in such good hands! Would definitely go through her again, she made us feel so at ease!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my 13 year old dog with Danielle. She was easy to work with and flexible with the pickup and drop off times. She kept me up to date with pictures and texts. I will never go anywhere else!”
“Samantha and her family were excellent and attentive to our two fur babies. She maintained the schedule we keep for them at home so it was very easy for them to transition once we got them back. They had full range of her home and was able to play and be themselves. We highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for a good sitter and we’ll most definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Amazing! Our first time using Rover and Amber set the bar! From the start, she made us feel comfortable leaving our puppy in her care. Very knowledgeable in puppy’s and their quirks. She is very communicative - from questions before booking, through booking changes, and while our pup was in her care - kept me posted on how he was doing and even provided pictures! Something that really helps a first time puppy mom! She also kept our puppy active which was great after a long trip - he slept the entire night and even slept in late!! We will for sure use her again and will be sharing her with our other dog friends! I highly recommend her to anyone!”
“My dog is usually super anxious and does not get along with lots of people, Tetiana is great always kept us updated with pictures. My dog got super comfortable quick. !!❤️”

William M.
“I can’t think of a better person to care for a pet than Bill. He is patient and loving with the pets that he had. He had a couple of dogs that died of old age and cared from them right till the end as though they were his dearest friends. He would regularly walk them multiple times per day and nurse them when they were ill. His most recent dog was an elderly dog that he got from a shelter. The dog was not in good health yet he cared from the and gave him a loving, safe place to live out his last few years. Bill would make a great pet caregiver.”
