“Aimee took care of my dog Lincoln very well. Amazing service, great communication.Kept me posted every bit. Very trustworthy. I have found the right place for my Lincoln any time I need. I recommend her 100%.”
“Ashley and her family are awesome! This was the longest period of time I've been away from my pup, and I was really nervous about traveling without her. But as soon as I met the family I instantly felt better. This is a very warm home, and they treated Denali like she was part of the family. They were all so kind to Denali, and I could tell she was very comfortable with them. Thank you Ashley for such an awesome job with Denali!”
“Beth was an absolute godsend considering some last minute changes in my travel plans that led me to Rover in the first place. She was incredibly personable, accommodating and caring towards my pet, and just an overall down-to-earth person to talk with upon our meeting. I would definitely recommend Beth to anyone looking for a reliable, kind pet-sitter.”
“We left our two Frenchies Gamora and Thanos with Kim. She was amazing. She sent us videos and pictures of our babies daily. Our dogs looked so happy and at home. They were so well taken care of. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their dogs”
“We cannot express enough how grateful to have found such an incredible family to care for our beloved Sadie. As a dog who hasn’t had much experience around other dogs, I was initially concerned about how she would adjust. However, from the very first day, this compassionate family made her feel completely at ease. Their kindness and deep understanding of dogs were evident in every interaction. They treated Sadie as if she were their own, showering her with love and attention. Their knowledge about dog behavior and care is truly impressive, and it’s clear they have a genuine passion for what they do. What truly set them apart was their consistent communication. I received daily photos and videos of Sadie, which not only showcased her happiness but also provided me with immense peace of mind. Seeing her playful and content reassured me that she was in the best hands possible. I wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful family to anyone seeking exceptional care for their furry friend. Their dedication, warmth, and professionalism are unmatched. Thank you for giving Sadie such a loving and comfortable experience!”
“Shelanne was AMAZING!!! Harper has found her new vacation home :) I received updates and photos/videos daily. Easy booking, priced reasonably, great communication and wonderful first meet. Large backyard for dogs to run and play. She even took our baby on walks. We will definitely be booking again!!”
“5 gold stars are not enough. On a 1-10 scale Rebecca M. would get at least a 15!! Malachi really enjoyed his stay and Rebecca and Ozzie met him feel right at home. I have recommended her to several of my friends should they need boarding. I would not hesitate to use them again and will do so when the need arises!!”
“Kept me posted via text, pictures and videos. Eileen is very personable, and patient with Ginger, who is a little shy and takes time to get comfortable with other fur babies. Ginger smelled like a million bucks when we picked her due to the complimentary shampoo Eileen provided. Thank you ☺️”
“Since this was a new location and person for Louie, I was a little apprehensive. After meeting Adrienne and her daughter, I knew he would be fine. They loved him and he even played with one of their dogs. I won't hesitate to use her again!”
“Kristen was a wonderful dog sitter. Our 15 year old gal was well cared for. We received daily text and photo updates during her stay. We will definitely use Kristen again and highly recommend her to you!”
“Jenny and her husband are the best dog sitters we’ve ever had! One of our pups got a little sick, and he they took every precaution to make sure he was okay. From calling the vet, sending us updates, and sleeping with him at night to make sure he was okay, they treated our dogs just like they were their own. They really put us at ease and we always know that our dogs are in good hands when they go to visit!”
“Rita was great! Quick responses, frequent updates and our dog Maple and cat Olive loved her (boarded our dog and had drop-in for our cat). Olive is usually fine when we are away but it was our first long trip away from Maple and she came home happy and healthy. I would use Rita’s services again, no problem”
“Amy was so sweet and easy to make arrangements with! It made me feel good when she told me that Bear enjoyed hanging out with her family. Her daily updates and pictures were a treat. I would not hesitate to board Bear at Amy’s again.”
“Marissa was great. My dog had a fun weekend with her and came home happy. And smelling good! I appreciated the photos she sent me during Chico’s stay. Will definitely use again. Highly recommended.”
“Ashley took great care of our dog while we traveled for a little over a week. She was very responsive and constantly sent updates and pictures. We knew he was in great hands and will definitely be using her in the future. Thanks Ashley!”
“I have never felt so secure leaving my babies with someone else! Aubrey is thorough, caring, informed, and trustworthy!! My 6y and 6m dogs had a blast and I could not be happier 🤩”
