“Karen is wonderful! This was our second time having Karen sit our dogs, my dogs love staying with her. She takes such good care of them, I never have to worry while I'm away.”


“Chica seamed very comfortable. There is a room just for dogs with toys and she claimed a plush dog bed that Yelena provided. Chica loves to go outside and her yard is fenced in. Yelena is a sweet and responsible lady who you can trust to take care of your Fur Baby.”


“Julie and her family took incredible of our golden while we were out of the country!! This is our second time leaving Lily with Julie and we definitely will be again in the future. Thank you so much, again, Julie!! :)”



“Nanette did a wonderful job looking after our Jolene. She was able to keep us updated with plenty of pictures and we felt very confident that Jolene was enjoying her stay.”


“Emily took care of our pup for 10 days while we were on vacation and was very professional and provided daily updates and photos. Teddy’s experience at Emily’s was 100% better than a commercial facility and we could tell when we picked up Teddy how much he was loved and cared for. We will take Teddy back again and recommend Emily to anyone looking for quality dog care.”


“Stephanie and her family made Porter feel like a family member and gave us frequent and fun updates! Stephanie’s dogs and our pup got along and enjoyed playing with one another, putting my mind at ease for him to get enough activity and stimulation while we were gone. From coordinating a meet and greet to communicating how Porter was doing through the stay, I felt confident in her care for our pup. I would highly recommend Stephanie to anyone needing a sitter for their beloved fur family member!”


“Outstanding care of our beloved Schnauzer! This was our first time using Rover and we couldn’t be more pleased with Chris. Our dog came home happy instead of traumatized when she’s had to stay at kennel. Chris even sent pictures and updates while we were gone. Thank you!”


“Ellie was absolutely great for us and our dog! She was kind, communicative, and knows her way around dogs. Even better, her adorable dog Red was a great companion for our own during the 1.5 days away from us. Our dog was all tuckered out the next day from all the fun she had. Can’t recommend Ellie enough!”


“Kyungyeon was AMAZING with our depressed doggie! He always mopes and eats very little when we are away, but Kyungyeon would not give up until he felt comfortable and happy in her home! We got so many pictures and updates and I am so grateful for the amazing care she took of our Obi!”



“Megan and Lois were perfect! We have never left our fur babies with anyone before. I didn’t want to put them in kennel type boarding. They treated our dogs like family. Couldn’t ask for anything better!”


“Had a great experience with Jennifer. She cared for our tiny puppy and provided lots of updates throughout the visit giving us confidence our little Bea was being loved on.”


“Megan will always be Charlie’s sitter if she is available. She took such good care of him when we were away for a week. She sent photos each day, followed all instructions, and loved him like her very own. Her adorable fur babies were welcoming as well. It was the best experience I’ve had with a sitter on Rover! I was able to enjoy time away without any concerns about Charlie’s well-being.”


“This was Ruby’s second time at Gerard’s house, and it was obvious that even after several months, she remembered him and was excited to see him again! Gerard is a top notch sitter. Hr sends daily updates and photos/videos that put us at ease. Highly recommend him for your next trip!”


“Alexis was just wonderful! Great communication and updates, thoughtful little touches that shows how much she loves caring for fur babies. She did exceptionally great with our over-eager Pit mix!”


“OMG!! Julie is sooooo amazing! She sent us videos of our fur baby interacting with her grandchildren and other dogs she was caring for. I was so worried having to be away from Sonic for over a week, but Julie turned my worrying into happiness seeing Sonic enjoying himself. Thank you sooo much! Sonic will definitely be back! ❤️”
