Colleen and Sean are amongst the best dogsitter. They are great with our dogs; always pleasant, easy to work with, and flexible. Sean, Colleen, kids and Nala have watched our two pugs possibly 4 or 5 times now—or more. And this will not be their last!

Donna provided very special care to Cocoa. She is a senior pup, and we are forever grateful that Donna provided updates as soon as anything of note happened. She was super responsive to all messages, and Cocoa was comfortable for the entire stay. We may not have Cocoa for much longer, and we are grateful that Donna was extra attentive to her needs and provided the best care possible. Many, many thanks.

This was Arlo’s second stay with Shizuka, and once again, she exceeded all expectations! Knowing that Arlo was returning to a familiar, loving environment made my trip so much more relaxing. Shizuka is incredibly consistent with her communication and care; I loved seeing the photo updates of Arlo settling right back into his routine. It’s clear they’ve formed a great bond, and I’m so grateful to have found a sitter Arlo trusts so completely. We will definitely be booking with Shizuka again and recommend her to our friends!

Han was absolutely wonderful with our high-energy dog, Bingsoo! We were gone for nearly two weeks and were so relieved to have someone as patient and caring as Han looking after him. Bingsoo can be quite a handful, but Han handled him with ease and kept us updated regularly with photos and messages. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog. We can’t thank Han enough for the peace of mind and excellent care!

Kerstyn was so wonderful and attentive. She was super communicative throughout the time my dog boarded with her, sending me updates on what my dog was up to. I felt at ease knowing that my dog was in good hands and having a good time. It was a great experience both for my dog and for me. She was sensitive to any concerns or specific attention areas that I had as well. I will definitely reach out to her again when I need to leave my dog in trusted hands, and I’m sure my dog would be happy to return as well.

Andy was terrific. He was flexible and kind with Cooper. I really appreciated the walks and the pictures he sent to me while I was away. I will definitely ask him to care for Cooper when I need to travel again. The pictures of my dog walking with another dog were reassuring. He was understanding when my train was delayed 1.5 hours. When I had difficulty finding his house at night, he offered to do pick up and drop off next time.

Karol took excellent care of my dog Lily when I had to leave town on a last minute trip. She sent frequent photo updates, which really helped put my mind at ease while I was away. Lily looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for in every picture and video. When I picked her up, she was excited and clearly had a great time. I truly appreciated the attention and care Karol gave her. Would absolutely recommend her and will definitely book with her again in the future!

Can't say enough good things about Luciana. She was great with communication, pupdates, and giving my puppy so much care and attention he came home happier than when I left him. I was reluctant to leave Maverick with anyone and Luciana completely put me at ease. She is 100% my go to person for taking care of my pup.

I’m so thankful to have found a perfect place for my dog to stay for an extended period of time. Jax is a unique pup with his own tendencies and quirks. He is a bit high energy and grumpy but he was well accommodated and loved during has stay despite his quirks. He got very comfortable and it was much better then boarding him a facility!! I look forward to boarding Jax again!

We are very happy that we chose to have Shizuka take care of our dogs! She took them on great walks and supervised them as they enjoyed her fenced in backyard! Along with the many status updates and lovely photos of our dogs, she was very responsive and responsible. Both of our dogs had a fantastic time and she reacted to their needs. We can look forward to our next trip as we would love to have Shizuka take care of our dogs again :)

This is already the third time I’ve left my dog Poshong with Meejeong, I travel quite often for work and have tried several sitters through ROVER, but Meejeong is truly the BEST!!! When I drop Poshong off at her house, it honestly feels like I’m leaving my dog with my own sister who absolutely adores him. That’s how loved, well cared for, and comfortable my dog with her. Meejeong has a spacious backyard, nice quiet street nearby that are great for walks, and a large park just a short distance away. She shared adorable photos of Poshong during his morning walk every day, which made me feel so reassured. Even when I was away for several weeks, I never had to worry. Thank you so much, Meejeong!
