“Sunday has been through a lot of difficult changes recently—a move, the loss of her doggy best friend and just normal growing up. Sunday is a sweet girl but can be high energy, anxious and a little mischievous. Megan and Jenny handled Sunday like absolute pros. Sunday was entertained with walks and lots of play time in their sweet house/yard. Jenny + Megan are responsible, reliant, and absolutely in love with their dog friends, not to mention flexible and easy-going—they treated Sunday like their own and I feel so thankful to have found such loving people to look after my girl. From the very first interaction they have been so responsive and accommodating! I hope to rebook them again soon, just so Sunday can get her fix!”
“Honestly, Lee was made for this. She spoiled our dogs like crazy. They were unsure when they first arrived, but by the end of it, they were sleeping in her bed, cuddling, and offering kisses. We kept joking that our dogs were at "Dogchella" because they got to hang out under a cabana, sunbathe, and hang with their new cute friends - as per the daily photo updates. My girl dog usually tries to nip at me when I pick her up from a boarding session (just to express her resentment for being abandoned for a few days - very dramatic but I feel her) and this is the first time she didn't do that. They were sooo calm and tired from all the play when we picked them up. Literally no notes - thank you Lee :)”
“Our dog Brody seemed comfortable with Alex from the first introduction and did very well in her care. She has an upbeat and welcoming manner, and a wonderful way of speaking to him directly. He often does not eat the first day or so that we were away but that was not a worry when he was with Alex. She understood his needs very well and took excellent care of him. I would definitely use Alex again for his care.”
“Andrea is wonderful! She’s so kind and caring with my little dog. He wasn’t feeling 100% when I dropped him off. She took extra good care of him, made sure he got plenty of rest, and sent me lots of updates and photos. Excellent experience and I will definitely call on her again. Thanks!!!”
“Kristen and Ryan were very welcoming of our pup! They were understanding of her nuances and helped her adjust to a new environment fast. They have a nice spacious home with a big backyard that our dog loved relaxing in. Kristen and Ryan were very communicative throughout the stay and sent daily updates with photos. 100% recommend!”
“Janely was so sweet and kind. She sent multiple pictures everyday and even offered to buy food for my dog when he wasn't eating properly! I would definitely book again :)”
“We're so happy to have found Hy & Arlo. Our pups love staying with them! They update us with cute photos of our dogs and respond quickly to any questions. We are able to relax while we're away, knowing that we can trust our dogs are in their great care!”
“We are so glad to have found Kelly. She cared for our 6 month old puppy for our first big trip since we got her — a little over a week. Kelly clearly loves dogs, and she takes the time to get to know potential clients (humans and canine) to make sure they’re a good fit. She was so patient with everything that comes with a puppy this young, including potty training confusion at a new place and not being comfortable being alone. We got lots of photos and videos while we were away, and Rotini came home happy and healthy.”
“Chad is wonderful with my Benny. When I leave Benny in his care I know that Benny has a great time and is well looked after because he sends me picture/video updates. Benny is always wagging his tail when he sees Chad. I will continue to book Chad.”
“Isaac and Jordan did a great job watching our boy! They were very communicative and were there to answer any questions. They also sent photos which was much appreciated. He slept the whole next day after we picked him up which is always a sign that he had a good time!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care Koko received from Miki. She helped me to pickup my rescue dog from the shelter. The situation it’s very difficult for me when I am living out of state. It was very clear how kind, responsible, and genuinely loving she is with animals. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while waiting for someone transport Koko back to AZ. I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust completely. Highly highly recommend!”
“Our dog Bella stayed with Suzanne for 5 days she came home tired , I’m sure she enjoyed playing with the other dogs and running around Suzanne back yard and resting in the dog room. Bella’s regular sitter was not available and I’m glad that we found Suzanne. We didn’t receive much updates and pictures but Suzanne was fast on responding on my messages and easy to communicate with. Will definitely have Suzanne in mind next time we need sitter for Bella.”
“Zo is an exemplary pet sitter in my opinion. This was my first time boarding my cats for a vacation and she walked me through the process beforehand, which I greatly appreciated. She suggested I bring things like a scratching post which I hadn’t even considered. Zo has been more than accommodating by communicating daily with updates, pictures, and even videos of my cats’ visit. When it was time to pick them up, Zo had all of my things conveniently packed and ready to go by the door. The whole process went so smoothly. I couldn’t have asked for a more accommodating, experienced, and friendly pet sitter. Thank you Zo! I will be recommending you to everyone I know and will come back the next time I need a sitter.”
“Valarie was accommodating and ready to customize care for our pet to make her feel at home. We were even able to make weird timing work since Valarie stays up late. Valarie also provided updates while we were away and I feel confident our pet was well taken care of. I will use her again!”
“Wonderful thoughtful caring dog sitter. Has a perfect set up for dog sitting. Gave dog walks and sent pictures and videos so I could see the fun he was having. Even brushed my little one's teeth! (His breath came back smelling better than ever.) Thank you Juliana!”
“There’s no place like home but this is the closest place to it. Wonderful, warm, loving and caring home by a wonderful, loving and caring person. And her dear sweet mother too! 5 stars all around. I had to find a sitter on extreme short notice and I was so thrilled that Chawntea was willing to accept my pup with less than 12 hours notice and for a 13 day stay while I was out of the country. My pampered pooch was treated like her own and I honestly think she may have came back more spoiled than when I left her and after that much time away it was a wonderful feeling knowing she was cared for so well. She even gave her a bath! Definitely will be a repeat customer and looking forward to future play dates w/ Bailey. Thank you so much!”
“Lilly is wonderful and provided an exceptional level of care for my dog!! It was the first time in a while that I was leaving my ten year old pup with someone new, but it was clear from Lilly’s questions and updates that she was treating my dog as her own!! She paid incredible attention to my dog’s special needs 🙏and provided adorable photos and videos throughout the stay. My dog was in a great mood upon pick-up and definitely bonded with both Lilly and her husband. Can’t recommend her highly enough!! 🥰”
“We loved our stay with Karen! The communication was very clear and quick, and Karen did a great job giving our pup a safe, structured stay with plenty of playing and time in the sun. :-)”
“Rachel is a terrific dog sitter! She is very responsive and communicative, and my dog had a great time with her and her dog. I appreciated the photos and videos of their beautiful hikes and play time.”
“Melinda was absolutely amazing. When I dropped off my fur baby to her I knew he would be in good hands. She made sure to send me pictures to ease my anxiety I would definitely recommend her”

Harrington dog parents share their Rover experiences
Inkoo was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of our dog Pancho—sending us daily updates with multiple photos and thoughtful notes that really put our minds at ease while we were away. She communicated clearly and consistently, and it was clear from the pictures that Pancho was happy, well cared for, and having a great time—especially at the dog parks she took him to! Inkoo is warm, reliable, and incredibly detail-oriented. We’re so grateful to have found her and will definitely consider her again for any future pet sitting needs.
I decided to look for someone local to care for my fur baby, Meila, while I went away for the weekend. I realized it was a last minute request so I was not expecting to be as lucky as I was to find someone who lived close by and had availability. During Meila's stay Valarie kept me very informed and shared a number of photos which allowed me to feel I made a good choice.
I am grateful I found these two wonderful people. I am always nervous dropping off my dog at a boarders house especially considering I had no way of meeting them before hand due to travel. Walking through the double gates I felt better. The yard is well maintained and I did not observe any immediate dangers. Dizzy was a bit nervous but all of the pictures I was sent made me feel so much better. When I picked my boy up he was obviously excited to see me but there was no anxiety. I will always use their services when available Thank you both so much.
Lee was very hands on and helpful keeping us aware of daily routines, which was good with a former shelter pup and a nervous first time dog owner. Dogs in Lee's care are obviously a top priority, and her approach made me confident that my doggie was in good hands. We will definitely be back when we need help again!
Vanessa was so kind and careful with our pup Gumbo! We were extra nervous because we had to leave him with her for two weeks while he recovered from an injury. Following our vet’s instructions, she gave him his meds, restricted his activity, carried him up and down the stairs, and provided so much loving care. And she sent us lots of updates! Her pup Robin is so sweet too. We’re looking forward to Gumbo’s next stay with them.
I can’t say enough great things about Xiajun! They took such amazing care of my dog while I was away—keeping him well-fed, walked, and most importantly, happy. Their flexibility was a huge help with my unpredictable schedule, and they were incredibly considerate, always checking in and making sure my pup’s needs came first. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. Highly recommend Xiajun to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!
My dog Winston had a lovely stay with Tiffany & Lauren! Winston is a bit of a grumpy old man and a real couch potato, and he got along really well with their dog Guapa. I wanted him to have a mellow place to stay while I was away, and their place was the perfect getaway. They sent some pictures of him throughout the stay, which I really loved!
