“This is Reggie’s second time staying with Jennica. And we are so happy to have found her! She clearly loves dogs and gives our fur ball love and attention. She provides constant updates and stays on top of communication. We really appreciate her services!”
“Nicole and her husband were both extremely nice, considerate, and accommodating! My dog has mobility problems, and they went out of their way to get floor mats to help my dog and future dogs move around their house.”
“Jessie is the most amazing sitter she is so attentive to your pet. She pays close attention to his eating and bathroom. She does everything possible to comfort him and pet him. Her care is beyond and above any I have ever heard about. She even made him treats and special food. Amazing!”
“Charles did an amazing job taking care of Kenji. From daily updates and photos to ensuring Kenji had walks and playtime. Kenji got along well with Knox, who is a Dalmatian as well. Kenji was happy when I returned, and it was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Charles for anyone needing a dependable and caring dog sitter!”
“Ms. Alexis was absolutely amazing watching Biscuit! She was so accommodating and helpful as we had a sudden funeral to attend. Biscuit was extremely well taken care of and if you need someone who will truly love and take care of your pet, I 100% recommend using Ms. Alexis”
“Poria was so awesome at our Meet & Greet overnight. Our fur baby was very shy & unsure of herself at first, so Poria took extra care helping to bring her out of her shell. By the time we picked her up the next day she was so comfortable & relaxed. Thank you Poria - you are Fantastic!”
“Sarah and Hagan took great care of my dogs for the week they had them. They have a very nice and clean kennel setup with ample room in a fenced off area for dogs to run around. My dogs were happy and well cared for when I picked them up.”
“We had to be away for 7 hours and we needed someone to watch our lab pup. I was worried at first, but after meeting Samantha, we were relieved how amazing she was with our pup. Our pup is a little shy meeting new dogs and needs more socialization. Samantha picked up our pup and her experience allowed her to introduced them slowly and correctly. We could tell by the pics we received, that after a couple of hours, my pup and her dog (lady) were playing and sleeping together so well. Both Samantha and her dog were sweet and playful with my pup. Buy the time I got back and she dropped my pup off, she passed out with all the energy she burned to day. But I can tell my pup had an amazing day. I will use Samantha again and would highly recommend her to others. Thanks Samantha and Lady!”
“Whittney was incredible. I was so nervous to leave my Ghost because he has a lot of anxiety and she kept me reassured and up to date with pictures and updates the whole time. She was responsive and so incredibly kind. Ghost had the biggest smile in all of the pictures and videos she sent so I know he had the best time!”
“Valerie is great! She took such good care of my pup and was so kind. Very easy to work with for both our schedules and was super accommodating! I would recommend her to anyone!”
“To tell you that Rachel and her husband were absolutely wonderful with our fur baby Hank, would not do them justice. She kept me up to date with pictures and videos throughout the day to let me know what Hank was up to and show me how much fun he was having at their house. They made sure to follow his feeding schedule, brushed him, ran him, and cuddled him all weekend. Their two pups are so friendly and welcomed my guy into their pack instantly. I knew he was in good hands with Rachel and her family. I didn’t have to worry about him while my husband and I were out of town, so we were able to enjoy our anniversary trip while he was on a little vacation of his own! I’m telling you, as a crazy worrier dog mom, I won’t think twice about leaving Hank with them in the future. If you need a sitter, these people are the people!”
“Bennie loves Becca. I love knowing that he is so well taken care of when I'm away. Thank you Becca! She even dressed him for Halloween and had him help with Thick-or-Treaters! I could not ask for a better sitter. Luv you Becca!”
“Amazing job as usually. Tamara was able to accommodate our pup with a last minute request. Her and her husband take such good care of our baby. We never worry when in their care.”
“Terry is amazing! She made sure that my dog was well taken care of! She sent updates often and this kept me in the loop on how Rocky was doing. I had piece of mind knowing he was happy and in good hands. He seemed to be loving it there! I will definitely be using her again!”
“Brandi, watched our Silas during a very difficult time and allowed us to focus on the Celebration of Life for our loved one. Silas was well taken care of and she tended to him as if he was her own. Brandi provided us with photos and consistent updates. This allowed us to be at ease and enjoy time with family at establishments that weren't pet friendly. If you are looking for a loving and caring pet sitter, look no further than Brandi. Thank you Brandi for taking excellent care of our beloved Silas, making him feel welcomed and safe. 5 Stars all Day!!! Raymond A. Brown”
“It was my first time using Rover and I loved it! She is attentive and understanding. You can tell she loves the animals that she takes care of. With it being my first time away from my dog, especially with Maxi being under the care of a stranger, I was worried and have been missing her even more. Genesis gave me updates and sent me pictures of Maxi, which calmed my nerves. 10/10 would definitely book again!”
“Extremely knowledgeable in her medical care for pets. She takes creat care to ensure your pet stays healthy, and has an emergency plan in place. She even gave me recommendations on what I can do to keep my babies healthy. Would definitely recommend for pets needing more detailed attention.”
“Kelly took excellent care of our dog and he had tons of fun! She sent pics and videos daily to let us know how he was doing. Highly recommend and would allow her to keep our furry friend again.”

Brittany was absolutely amazing with my baby, RUDI! From the moment I dropped him off, I knew he was in good hands. She kept me updated every day with pictures and was always very communicative, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. When we picked RUDI up, he was happy, well cared for, and smelled absolutely amazing! It’s clear that Brittany truly cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. Thank you again, Brittany, for taking such great care of my baby. I would definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter!
Ms. Alexis was absolutely amazing watching Biscuit! She was so accommodating and helpful as we had a sudden funeral to attend. Biscuit was extremely well taken care of and if you need someone who will truly love and take care of your pet, I 100% recommend using Ms. Alexis
Gena is a true treasure to me. I cannot say enough about how wonderful she has been to my little dog. He's a sweet dog, but he's a picky eater. She is very willing to make sure he is happy and gets what he needs. She is a true dog lover and pampers him way more than I would expect her to. Thank you for taking such great care of my baby!
