“Victoria is amazing and responsive. She provides many updates and is flexible when our travel plans have gone awry. Our dogs are in the best care possible when they stay with her.”
4. Michael H.
“Michael and Maria were the best! They took such great care of Penny while I was out of town. Their apartment is so clean and a wonderful location for the city. They were so kind with sending daily updates and photos. I know Penny was in great hands!”
5. Amy N.

6. Nelia & Brett M.
“Nelia and family took such good care of my pup she never missed a beat. She even ate the first day I was gone---this NEVER happens. Can't say thank you enough 😊”
7. Theresa L.
“Theresa boarded my 13 lb bundle of sweetness for a week, and she was absolutely wonderful! She was flexible when our flight times shifted, and more importantly, my pup was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. She can run on anxious side, so her even temperament is a testament to Theresa’s love and care! Lijah also loved Dozer the dog, which means he didn’t mind letting her hog momma for a little snuggle time. Thank you, Theresa! I’ve been using Rover for two years, and have had a few sitters. I recommend Theresa for boarding your pups.”
8. Amy C.
“Amy is truly the best! She is attentive and communicates very well. I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with her :) My dog can’t wait to come back!!”
9. Emily & Patrick M.
“This was our puppy's first night away from home and I can't say enough about how reassuring it was to have him at Emily and Patrick's. He loved having another dog to play with. They had mountains of toys to entertain him as well. We got pictures and videos. And, more importantly, they kept him content despite his separation distress. We'll definitely come back to them when we need a dogsitter!”
10. Ryan N.
“I was a little nervous about leaving Lucy with a new sitter, but Ryan was wonderful! We had a meet and greet with him and his two dogs prior to Lucy's stay so we knew ahead of time that they were compatible. Ryan kept me up to date with photos of Lucy and what they were doing- she had an amazing time! Definitely would use Ryan again!”
11. Christine B.
“Christine takes very good care of my Winnie. She's reliable and communicates all the things you want to know along w pictures. I've had Winnie stay with her multiple times and will rebook in the future.”
12. Eronda D.
“Eronda was kind and personable. She clearly LOVES dogs and took good care of our mini goldendoodle. She even made her chicken and rice to eat when our pup got too anxious to eat her kibble. She took photos and updated us on our girl. She sent our girl home freshly bathed. I’d recommend her!”
13. Denise P.
“Denise was a great sitter for our pup! She was very flexible with scheduling and provided regular updates throughout the stay. Would definitely work with her again and recommend!”
14. Sebastian O.
“We have asked them to watch our pups for the past few years now and they are absolutely wonderful sitters. Sebastian and his wife really spoil and give our dogs the attention and care they deserve all while keeping us updated on their stay. As a family of 5 with 3 small children, I think our dogs really enjoy the break they get when staying with Sebastian 😅. They are our go to sitters and we can’t thank them enough for all the love and attention they give our pups!”
15. Tia D.
“I would definitely recommend Tia! Our dog Gizmo had a great time and was well cared for. Tia sent lots of pictures and videos. We will definitely use her again!”

“Even if our Berni was mad at us that we left him behind, it was nice to know that he was well taken care of by Jacqueline. Very responsive, would for sure book again.”
19. Nicholas F.
“Nicholas was a great host. He took care of our 80lb male retriever mix. Our dog can be a bit of a handful so we were lucky to find Nick who had no issues and sent updates during his stay. We’ll contact Nick again when we’re in the Pittsburgh area. Thanks!”
20. Chang K.
“Chang sent us lots of pictures of our dog looking Happ and having a good time at her house. She was really kind and easy to work with. We will be using her again.”
