“Jean was fantastic! Our dog had the best time and we’re so thankful he had such a wonderful place to stay with ample room to play. She constantly communicated how he was doing with pictures included. He had a great time!”
“Susie made us feel so comfortable leaving our dachshund with her for a long weekend. She was so knowledgeable about all of the quirks of the breed and our dog seemed comfortable with her from the start. We received lots of photos! Susie was also very responsive and great to communicate with. We are so grateful we found her!”
“Nadine was great! We were coming from out of town and headed to the beach but visited family for a couple days who doesn’t like dogs in the house, so we needed to find a place for our dog for a couple days. Nadine sent pictures everyday to let us know how Milly is doing. She has an amazing backyard and her pets were very friendly with her. Milly isn’t crate trained and Nadine was more than willing to accommodate that and let her sleep in the bed. Will definitely use her again when we come to town!”
“Kristopher was very helpful and accommodating in setting up boarding for my dog just a few days before I needed to leave town. He put my mind at ease with leaving my pup with someone I didn’t know. I got updates and photos of my boy each day and I’m pretty sure Kristopher could make a living doing pet photography! Should I need pet sitting again, I will certainly seek out Kristopher again.”
“Nancy was absolutely amazing! This was our first time leaving our girl with anyone so we were very nervous on how it would go! Nancy was so reassuring that Paisley would do well. She sent us pictures to keep us updated on how she was doing. Paisley came home one happy girl! We are so thankful to have found Nancy and highly recommend her!! We will definitely use her in the future!”
“The communication was great before and during my dogs’ stay. She sent photos during their stay and alerted me quickly about issues — even if they were minor. The dogs were happy when I picked them up and seemed to have enjoyed their time!”
“Jessica took such great care of PB while we were away! I can tell she kept him busy and active by how sleepy he’s been since coming home. He’s one happy guy, and it’s clear he had a great time with her!”
“Barbara was wonderful! My dog took to her right away which made leaving her for 4 days less stressful! Everything went smoothly and when I picked her up she was happy and well taken care of! Thank you Barbara!”
“I could not have asked for a better family to watch my dog! Samantha and Brian were so kind and accommodating with my older dog! My dog had some issues initially acclimating to the new environment and they went above and beyond to make him feel at home. To the extent that Brian slept in the living room with him, where my dog felt most comfortable. Their children and their pup were wonderful with him as well! The family even accommodated me picking my dog up a night early since our holiday plans changed. This family really was a blessing when we needed to leave our dog for the holidays! Thank you again!!”
“Hannah did a wonderful job hosting out pup. Daily photo updates and additional attention and care was demonstrated, as our puppy was in her first heat during the stay. That meant being diligent about having space from the other pups that were staying, and going out of her way to keep things safe and happy. 10/10 would work with again!”
“Shari was so friendly, reliable, good communication with quick reply to texts and daily updates of my dog. Would definitely recommend and hopefully will be a repeat customer.”
“Marybeth and family took good care of our dog Toby for a week. I believe Toby had as good a vacation as we did! He got to play with Zoey and keep an eye on the cats. He spent time relaxing on the back deck watching the chickens. Working out the details with Marybeth was easy and she's quick to respond. She's obviously good with animals.”
“Noemi was very proactive and communicative with me about Elroy over the days she was with her! We got lots of photos and felt like Elroy was well cared for 💖 Thank you Noemi!”
“Charisse was fabulous in caring for our Lexi. She kept us apprised of how things were going, and we had a happy relaxed pup upon our return. Can’t wait for our next vacation and Lexi’s next sleepover!”
“Hanlan went above and beyond what I expecting! We left our pug with her for 5 days and she was always sending cute pictures from his day. She took him on long walks, and the dog park multiple days. We really felt Bubz was left in amazing care, and would choose her again next time we go out of town!”
“It seems like our little dog Hattie was extremely well cared for. We received cute little photo updates daily that reassured us that she was in good hands. We would happily book with Jamie and his partner again!”
“I could not recommend Mara’s services enough. She took wonderful care of two of my dogs on short notice no less providing excellent communication throughout their stay. I would absolutely rebook and recommend her for your dog sitting or dog boarding services needs. Thank you again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gladstone
I will say I was nervous boarding my dog with many other dogs but I had to have someone watch him for a couple days so I decided to do it. And it went so well! I was sent sooo many pictures and it was all smiles, from not only my dog, but all the other dogs as well, it was really cute. I can tell he had a great time and had a ton of fun. I would definitely board him here again!
Jaimo is fantastic! She clearly has a lot of animal experience and her love of animals is very apparent. Her home is lovely with a good-sized yard. She communicates frequently and clearly; she sent adorable pictures every day I was gone. I would recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter!
Jean was phenomenal! ❤️ I finally took a little time for myself and went out of town, and she gave me such peace of mind by sending updates and pictures of my very loved dog Luna. My Luna isn’t used to being without me and definitely gave Jean a little hassle 😂, but Jean was so patient, caring, and wonderful with her. I truly can’t say enough great things about Jean❤️❤️I would absolutely trust her with any of my fur babies again! 🐾❤️.
I can’t recommend them enough! They took amazing care of Jetson and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Communication was excellent throughout, with regular updates and photos, which meant so much to me. They were also incredibly flexible when my plans changed and went out of their way to accommodate Jetson, which I truly appreciated. He came home happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I would absolutely trust them with Jetson again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate pet sitters.
Amy and Eric took such kind and wonderful care of our very anxious senior dog. They were so attentive to his needs and gave him a lot of affection and playtime. They were very communicative, reliable, and welcoming and provided thoughtful updates and photos on how he was doing which helped put us at ease. Everything went smoothly and our dog was comfortable and well loved! We highly recommend them and will be using them again.
Mara was so great to coordinate with and it’s so clear that she is great with dogs! Our boy is a big goofball who gets a little overwhelmed sometimes, but after just one meet and greet, we knew it would be a great fit for him to stay with Mara while we went out of town. He clearly loved his time there and we enjoy the tired and happy boy!!
Sierra stepped up at the eleventh hour and did a wonderful job! She was open to negotiating a reasonable price, even though it was short notice with my other sitter cancelling on me. I came back from my two week trip to a Special bear that was happy and healthy. She even got her a stuffed animal! Thanks again Sierra :)
We are a returning customer of Erika’s. This time around our Ruby stayed for 2 whole weeks. Erika was great with communication and provided me regular updates. We really appreciated Erika being available for our entire trip! We will definitely be using her again in the future. Thank you again Erika!

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gladstone home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Gladstone.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Gladstone sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
