“Amazing trip as always. My husband and I laughed because as we were dropping our dog off with Chris, our dog happily wagged his tail and didn’t even look back at us when going off with Chris. Definitely always a good sign! Our dog looks so happy and comfortable and Chris makes every absolute effort to make sure our dog is happy and comfortable. I never worry one single moment when our dog is with Chris because we know he is so well taken care of.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Nicole & Alexis! This was my first time leaving Kingston, my Cavapoo, with a new sitter, while I traveled internationally for 10 days; Nicole made everything so easy and stress-free. She was extremely communicative, sent me daily pictures, and always let me know if he had eaten his breakfast & dinner. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands and didn’t have to worry once while I was away. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter—I’ll definitely be booking with Nicole & Alexis, again! 🙂”


“Madeline is a very nice person who takes good care of dogs in her Girard Estate home. She usually boards more than one dog at a time, and We like the setting because our 11 lb Cavapoo gets some socialization with other nice dogs. She is otherwise very timid. You will enjoy chatting with her, and she will text photos while she is caring for your dog. We will be happy to use Madeline again.”


“Alex was absolutely fantastic while watching my dog for a few days. I felt completely at ease. Alex was communicative, reliable, and sent regular updates and photos. I’d recommend Alex to others who are looking for a pet sitter.”

“Kanade and her husband were such amazing sitters for my 2.5 year old Pom mix, Marsha. They treated her like she was one of their own and were so communicative with me. I'll definitely asking Kanade to watch her again soon. Thank you again!”

“The best dog sitter out there! Bobby and his partner were so intentional, communicative, and sweet towards our fur baby. We will definitely be booking with them again!”

“Great communication - relayed issues or questions as soon as they happened. Sent cute pics daily and sounds like my pup got along with hers really well. Would definitely have them sit for my pup again!”


“Tamikia was a breath of fresh air. She was very welcoming and cared for our Bella like one of her own..She gave updates and sent pictures the entire stay. I highly recommend her services. Bella also was taken for walks and fed great. We are glad we chose Tamikia. Don't hesitate with your pets for her care/ services.”

“Monica was great! She helped out at the last minute and did a fantastic job! My dog is shy, but she felt comfortable with Monica right away. Monica sent cute pics throughout the day of my pup exploring her house, going on a walk, relaxing, etc. I'd definitely hire her again and highly recommend!”

“Liam was fantastic with Maggie, and she loved playing with Jack! Liam was incredibly communicative providing updates and photos of Maggie which is so comforting when being away from your fur baby. We highly recommend booking with him!”

“Deena was able to care for Lucy over the holidays and able to accommodate an extra night when I missed a day for the booking. Friendly and kept me up-to-date with daily photos and texts. Definitely would book her again”

“Dulce is a fantastic sitter - very communicative, follows all instructions, and sends great updates with adorable photos. My dog, Moose, loves her and her little dog! We ran into them on a walk after his most recent stay and he planted his feet to wait for them and tried to follow them home. I would be so happy to have Dulce watch my dog again!”

“Alexis does such a great job with Prince! She really takes care of him and provides the comfort Prince receives at home. I will continue to care for Prince when I am away.”

“We had a last minute pet sitter cancellation and were completely panicked! Deeogee came to the rescue, and our babies had the absolute best time. We got daily updates and access to text them any time. So grateful! We will definitely use them again!”

“Absolutely amazing! This the first time I left my dog since rescuing him and his anxiety gave me anxiety 😅. Kristina was great she answered all my questions, she was so kind when I asked stupid ones. She kept my dog safe and happy. She also works with reactive dogs great! Would recommend! Can't say it enough she is amazing!”

“Fantastic sitter! I left Cheesesteak with Sara for 2 weeks and got constant updates and photos which came in handy because this was the longest I left him for. She was great with handling him, understanding what he is and isn't comfortable with, and even successfully intodriced him to her cats (which is sometimes has a hard time with). Since this was a holiday sitting she got him a holiday treat (fish) and even a present, which was so sweet of her!! ❤️❤️ I will be asking for her to sit again next time I have to travel.”

“Tony was great with my two doggies Molly and Mochi. He was also very communicative and sent me daily updates. I love that he sent me pictures and videos throughout the day so I could see that my doggies were happy and enjoying backyard time with Tony, Minnie, Diamond, Roxie and Charlie.”

“I can’t say enough about Samantha! She accommodated a last minute request to board our pup Rosie when we had a travel emergency, and it gave us so much peace of mind. Samantha took great care of Rosie, gave us frequent updates and photos, and was so helpful preparing her for the next phase of her journey. Thank you Samantha!”

Girard Estates dog parents share their Rover experiences
Tu was excellent. We had to make a last minute reservation and she was very accommodating. Her space was perfect for our dog, and we didn’t have any issues during his 3-day stay. Tu kept us updated daily with pictures and videos which we absolutely appreciated. We look forward to booking with her again!
Kiersten was a wonderful sitter! I'm very grateful she could take care of my pup for an extended stay. She was professional, reliable, and communicative. I especially appreciated the regular updates with photos - I could see that my dog was comfortable and well cared for :)

I was nervous boarding my senior dog with someone new but Veronica put me immediately at ease. It is clear that she has extensive experience and a genuine love for dogs. She provided frequent photos, videos, and updates and went out of her way to make my dog feel comfy and cared for. I could not be happier with my experience and I look forward to booking again! So grateful.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Oliver’s sitters and can’t recommend them highly enough. They were amazing about communication and sent daily updates, plenty of pictures, and even fun Instagram stories showing how Oliver’s day was going. It was so reassuring to see how happy and engaged he was the whole time. They always let me know when the dogs were heading out on fun field trips and made sure Oliver was included, which I really appreciated. When my flight was delayed several days due to a snowstorm, they were incredibly flexible and happy to accommodate Oliver for the extended stay. They even went above and beyond by making sure he had extra food when his ran out a bit early because of the delay. The entire team was wonderful, and it was clear Oliver had the best time he was so happy with all of his dog friends that he didn’t even want to leave when it was time to come home. We will absolutely be booking with them again. Highly, highly recommend!

Madison took great care of our dog Robert, was incredibly conscientious of his behavioral and medical needs, and provided him with a cozy and caring home away from home. She provided consistent and timely updates / photos and always went the extra mile to ensure Robert was comfortable and content. We absolutely recommend Madison to anyone seeking a kind and attentive sitter, and plan on bringing Robert back in the future!
