“I had to find a last minute sitter because the one I initially booked had a family emergency. Kerri to the rescue! To say I was nervous is an understatement since I don’t normally have my dog stay with a sitter that watches other dogs at the same time but she communicated great throughout the stay and made sure that the dogs all stayed safe. I’ll definitely be using kerri again in the future!”


“Queeny took excellent care of our pup! She shared pictures and videos every day to keep us updated how he was doing. Her communication was excellent, very responsive, and she was flexible when we encountered a delay in our travel plans that impacted our scheduled pick-up time. We will definitely have Queeny watch our pup again the next time we take a vacation!”


“Tara and her family were great! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with them. She sent me daily photo and video updates, and was very accessible to communicate with. I felt like my dog was in excellent care. I didn't worry about my dog at all and was able to relax and enjoy my trip knowing he was in good hands. I felt like I found my Rover go-to person with Tara and will definitely be booking with her again.”


“These guys were amazing!! They provided a loving home for my dog while we were away. We received frequent updates, and they treated my dog so well, I was sure she would never want to come home. I cannot recommend Chris and Cassandra highly enough. Through some glitch in the system, they were suggested to me, even though they were a 40 minute drive away. I will ABSOLUTELY be making that 40 minute drive again when my dog needs a sitter.”


“So happy I booked with Kayla to sit my pup while I was on vacation. She kept my mind at ease with all the pictures and the updates. I felt confident she would treat my dog right. I definitely plan on booking with her again in the near future.”


“Steven was great. Took fantastic care of Daisy and was quick to respond to any of my Questions. He made drop off and pick up easy and we are lucky to have found him as a future Daisy dog sitter. I highly recommend him”


“Sheila and Keith go above and beyond! This is my very first time using Rover. Sheila was amazing with communication right from the start! I dropped my fur baby off and they made her feel right at home imediatley. I was a little worried at first but Sheila took that worry away instantly by continuously sending me updates in detail, pictures, and anything requested. Its hard to find such trustworthy and amazing people in the world these days, especially to take care of your loved one. Sheila and Keith are highly reccomended and I already booked my next visit with them!”


“I can tell Michael really enjoys caring for dogs. I knew Calvin was in good hands and was able to enjoy my trip with zero worries. I’d use Michael again. Thanks!!!”


“Kind, friendly, so easy to work with. Rahied made what was an anxious situation for me, completely worry-free. I couldn’t have asked for a better caretaker. I knew my furry friend was in good hands right at the moment I met Rahied. I have no reservations about recommending him.”


“Jasmine is great!!! Very responsive and responsible. We have boarded our dog with her at least four times. He always comes back happy and healthy!”


“Kadi was soo sweet and accommodating! Definitely recommend her if anyone is looking for a good and loving pet sitter! I will ask her to watch my dog Millie again in the future!! 😍😇🥰”

“Madeline and Joe were there for me in a sudden pinch to care for my Frenchton for almost 2 weeks. They sent regular videos, pictures, and updates to keep me in the loop as to how he was and help me feel comfortable. I chose them originally as they asked me just as many questions as I had for them, which shows they know proper care (they also have their own dog, too), and want to make sure that there is mutual trust. I will most certainly be using them in the future!”


“Shelbi was very nice and accommodating to any request I had while she was caring for Pepper. I’m so happy with how everything turned out. I definitely recommend her because she genuinely cares for and loves dogs.”


“Allesha is great with our dog Zoey! She’s super accommodating to our schedule and takes wonderful care of Zoey. Zoey gets treated like one of Allesha’s pack and comes home tired and happy ☺️”


“Amanda is the type of care provider we had dreamed of but never thought a person like her existed. Amanda, her husband and their home were all so warm and welcoming. It is so hard to believe that she could be all things, but she was. She was a caregiver to Henry with his special diet and many pills. She was an amazing communicator to me with photos in the morning and evening. And she was a companion and best friend to Henry, who followed her everywhere! All of this made a trip overseas so much less stressful. Amanda didn’t know I was that far away and on a different time zone. She didn’t know the updates she sent helped me get to sleep each night and made me less homesick. Amanda just was being her great self and sharing the fun photos of my dog in her care. It was exceptional! Amanda even took Henry for special walks just because she could tell he liked them. It was probably freezing outside, but she did it to make him happy. Like I said, Amanda is exceptional! My husband and I have had a dog in our life since the day we got married. They were all big dogs and we often had two at the same time. We kenneled them once or twice for short stays, and it was always so obvious when they returned that boarding them was a bad idea. They’d return home with hoarse voices, so it was obvious they were unhappy and barking for long lengths of time. Because two of our dogs were adopted as adults, we have sadly already experienced the loss of three. It took us a full year after the last loss to even consider bringing another dog into our lives. We had a lot of discussions of the pros and cons. One of the cons was that we had no family nearby who could watch a new dog if we ever traveled. I said there must be someone! The pros outweighed the cons and we adopted Henry even though we had nobody to watch him when we traveled. He came with us everywhere for years and became our family. We must have passed through 18 different states with him and a few provinces in Canada. After seeing Amanda and Henry in photos and in real life, now I want to leave town just so they can hang out again. It is so rare to find even family members who love your dog as you do. With Amanda, it was obvious Henry felt loved. He came home so happy and healthy and normal. I look forward to Henry spending time again with Amanda and her husband!”


“Jacob is amazing. We just moved to Michigan in April. We’ve needed to board our dog Piglet 3 time since relocating here. Each time Jacob took care of him for us. It’s so nice knowing that you don’t have to worry about your dog while you’re away and wonder if they’re ok. Piglet loves Jacob and I know he’s being loved and taken care of when he’s with him. As long as Jacob is available while we’re away, he will always be the one that we want taking care of Piglet for us. My husband and I are so thankful we found Jacob.”


“My husband and I love Pamela and Rick! They are wonderful with Roscoe!!! They treat him as if he were there own!!! He loves them as well! It is so wonderful to have sitters like them!!! Every pet needs a Pamela and Rick to care for them!!! Thank you Pamela and Rick for all you do for and with Roscoe!!! You both have given my husband and I such a peace of mind!! We can go away and leave Roscoe with you with absolutely no worries!!! And that is priceless!!! ❤️❤️❤️”


“Samantha took great care of our dog for a week. It was his first time boarding with her but he seemed to feel right at home. She paid special attention as he’s a picky eater. We would definitely book with Samantha again!”


“I am grateful that I found Pallavi she was wonderful with kylo and kept me updated. I loved and cared for him and I can tell he enjoyed his stay with her as well.”


“My cat Pinto warmed up to Kayla immediately! She was so sweet, thoughtful and flexible when my plans changed last minute. Great communication and updates, impeccable care. I could tell Pinto was not just looked after but loved. Would definitely book Kayla again. Thank you so much!”
