“Kaitlin and her family took such good care of my girl! I couldn’t have asked for a better family to watch her for a week. Communication was excellent and I know she was well taken care of!”

“Fast and great communication with Olga. I had a very horrible experience a few months ago with my dog's first pet sitter. Very relieved that my dog was taken care of and loved getting photos while I was away.”

“Amanda has been wonderful with Hatcher! He’s stayed several times now and he comes home tuckered out. We love her open communication and frequent photo & video updates while he’s with her. She takes great care of our boy and we appreciate all she does so we can enjoy our time away from him without having to worry if he’s ok. Thank you so much Amanda!”

“Julie was great.! We were delayed over the holidays and she was very helpful in accommodating our change. Our Maizey was very well taken care of and seemed relaxed & happy upon picking her up.”

“Crystal is so great with my two springer spaniels, one is so very different from the other. One is a lover and needs attention and affection. The other is an athlete and needs to always be retrieving. They come back happy after staying with Crystal.”

“Ashley was so good with both our puppy and our elderly dog. I appreciated her accommodating my request for my older dog to meet her before we dropped him off. Thanks for giving us peace of mind as we traveled without our dogs!”

“Our dog seemed to enjoy her stay. Great yard for play, and neighborhood for walks. Kaitlin gave great updates during the stay and was flexible with us for drop off and pick up.”

“Kip always comes home happy and well-behaved after staying with Huw and Jolynne. I'm grateful I can drop him off and know he is taken care of and having a good time while we are away.”


“Jessica sent pictures of maple often and told me he was doing just fine over there. Was flexible with picking up time changed and plan on using her again for next time.”


“A dog lover all of her life and a very supportive family that together made our dog feel completely at home. A fenced yard and 2 lovely dogs of her own rounded out our dog's stay. Can't recommend her enough.”


“Sharon and Michael 100/10 would recommend! They are honestly the best. They take such great care of my husky. They send the most beautiful pictures of her. And they communicate and keep me updated about my husky!”

“Kam was soo happy which let me know that he was well taken care of. I got pictures everyday which put me at ease. We will definitely be using her services again.”

“Ryan did a great job with my high energy lab! He was always kept busy and was very tired when he came home. I honestly don’t think my dog wanted to leave. Highly recommend!”

“Lindsey was great! My dog felt right at home with her two pups and was well taken care of. Looking forward to having Lindsey watch her in the future when I need a dog sitter.”

“This was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience with Danielle. She communicated very well with us. She sent us pictures and was flexible with drop off and pick up times. She seems like she truly is an animal lover. I think our dog was a little nervous when we left him because it was with somebody new but when we came back, he didn’t wanna leave her !”

“Ramona was seriously really great. We could tell she and her family were genuinely happy to have our dog Murphy at their home for a few days. We received several updates and pictures of Murphy. Murphy didn’t want to leave when we picked him up! We will absolutely be using Ramona in the future.”

“Took excellent care of our pups and provided regular updates. Very satisfied with his care, had good communication, and our fur babies really enjoyed their time with him.”
