“John is an excellent sitter! I can’t say enough good things about him. He took such good care of our dog, sent twice daily updates, and provided lots of walks and enrichment activities for him while we were out of town. We know our boy Lu enjoyed his stay!”


“Tank was brought back to us excited and happy. I could tell he was well taken care of. We loved the "doggy" bag that was given with the cutest picture of our boy! We will definitely use Courtney in the future.”


“Jody took amazing care of our two pups while we were gone for a long weekend. She has a wonderful setup with a fenced in yard for pups to hang out and explore. She provided over the top service feeding my pups eggs when they wouldn’t eat their food and providing a fan for when they came back inside from running around. She was a delight to deal with from start to finish and sent us pictures while we were gone as well. Highly recommend her!! Thanks again Jody!”


“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our Frenchie while we were at the beach! Shannon treated him like one of her own—spoiled him with love, kept us updated with the sweetest photos, and made sure he was happy, safe, and snuggled. Knowing he was in such caring hands made it easy to relax and enjoy our trip. She’s truly the best, and we’re so grateful for the amazing care she gave our pup!”


“I cannot say enough about Paula. We were traveling from out of state and Paula was so flexible with the time of pick up and drop off. I felt a good energy from her messages, home, and little pup right away. We have had our fair share of lousy dog sitters and this is the first time i have felt inclined to write a review. Paula communicated with me more than any other dog sitter ever has. I never had to wonder what my pups were up to or if they were safe. We will absolutely link up with Paula again!”


“Charlotte is always so good. We have used her several times for long weekends, daycare, etc.. She communicates with us and sends us lots of pictures which I love. I couldn’t recommend her more!”


“Emily took absolute EXCELLENT CARE of our sweet pup! We were very nervous to leave our new puppy while out of town, but after reading Emily's reviews, we thought it may be okay. Emily was so kind to have us over for a puppy play date so we would feel comfortable with our pup staying there for a week. Immediately, our dog felt right at home! It was such a relief knowing he was in good hands while we were away. Her fenced in yard is perfect for lots of outdoor play, and her home is set up ideally for caring for dogs. While we were out of town, she responded quickly to my messages asking about how he was doing, and we so appreciated all the updates and pictures. I can tell he had a blast, and we are so happy to have found Emily on Rover! We definitely recommend her, and we will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you!”



“Brenda's home was clean, and she was very conscientious about our initial meetup and making sure that my pup was cared for in a way that I was comfortable with. She also sent lots of pictures during the weekend that we were away.”


“They looked like they had a great time! Was given plenty of attention and treats. Did not appear overly hungry or thirsty when we brought them back home telling me they were given plenty of food and water. Liked that Lydia has a fenced in back yard and appreciated the daily picture updates and video without me having to ask first. Was also able to get us in last minute and was very responsive. Would highly recommend!”


“Mallory and her husband are very nice, and very flexible. She will take a picture of my dog and text to me. My dog had fun staying with them. Will definitely recommend Mallory as your dog sitter.”


“Wendy was very reassuring while keeping Sammy. I had only had Sammy for 3 weeks when I needed a sitter for a day and a half. I was very nervous to leave him. Wendy kept me updated with photos while keeping Sammy which really helped me. Wendy has a big fenced in back yard which is also very nice for a puppy or grown dog. I was fortunate she had another puppy arrive the second day so my puppy had someone to play with! :-) I would recommend Wendy as a pet sitter if you find your self in need. She has a lot of experience especially with puppies! You can also read the rest of her reviews as I did which brought me to her in the first place!”


“First visit! I really appreciated the communication and coordination, so easy to work with. Hops (the dog) came home happy and healthy. Theresa took great care of her; I would book again and refer her!”


“I cannot say enough about Krystal and her family! Truly the best dog sitter I could ever dream up!! She loved our sweet poochie like her own! She sent me daily updates with pictures and details about how he was doing, and what fun activities they were doing with him! She has a gorgeous area in her home dedicated to doggy sitting, and it is just lovely. They took him on walks and puppy stroller rides when the pavement was too hot for his little feet. They worked on his tricks with him, they even bought him a new toy just for the fun of it! I had no doubts that he was being well cared for, and that was so comforting to me while we were traveling. I will 100% use Krystal again, and recommend her to everyone!!”


“Falcor enjoyed his Christmas vacation with Carla. She sent us updates and pictures every day. He ran out of food and she made sure to let us know and went and got him what he needed. We would recommend Carla to anyone needing a dog sitter for an extended trip.”


“Cheyanne took amazing care of our fur baby! We were gone for 5 days and she frequently sent us pictures as well as updates on how he was doing. She also administered all of his daily medication and ear drops with no troubles. She was very flexible with our schedule and responded to our messages very quickly. We highly reccomend her to anyone and will deffinately book her again in the future!”


“I really felt like Enzo was being taken care of the whole time I was gone. Emily was very kind and flexible with my schedule. I even got some really good professional grade pictures from her of Enzo! All around great experience.”


“Liz is the best!! My dogs love her! And that’s an understatement. She’s dependable, loving, a great communicator. My dogs stayed with her for a week and they were treated like one of their own animals. She’s sends updates and pictures frequently. She’s very flexible. She’s given our family a chance to vacation. I just never knew anyone who watched animals, so we never went anywhere. We are very grateful for Liz and my dogs are so lucky to get her love and attention.”
