1. Stephanie P.
“Stephanie was amazing. Goose has a great time and can’t wait to come back in a couple weeks. She was so flexible and was able to accommodate anything. Truly a great person and sitter ! Tonks is also a sweetheart and put up with my goofball in the best way. Dare I say they are best friends :)”
2. Beth M.
“Beth was an amazing sitter for our pup. She was easy to coordinate with on the front and back end and gave frequent updates with pictures and details keeping us up to date on everything our pup. Will definitely be back with Beth for our next getaway!”
3. Sharon D.
“Sharon took very good care of my dog Bear for the week I was gone and Wesley was a great friend for her as well. She is very understanding and flexible when I got delayed due to a snowstorm. I can’t recommend her enough as someone who will take care of your fur babies as her own and leave you with no worries!”
4. Ebony C.
“I was very pleased with Ebony. Casper was not happy with the other dogs she was boarding, because they were so much bigger than him. He did, however, get along very well with Ebony and her children. I highly recommend her.”
5. Ashlyn H.
“Ashlyn and her husband were wonderful sitters for my puppy! It was my first time using Rover and I definitely had my worries having someone watch my 5 month old puppy for me for 4 days but Ashlyn kept me updated and was very understanding of the usual struggles that come with taking care of a puppy. Her dog definitely helped with making my puppy feel very comfortable in her home and I’m so glad she had a wonderful time there. I definitely will consider using Ashlyn again if I ever need to :)”
6. Emily & Pedro V.
“Emily & Pedro were great! Choco had a great time playing with the other pups. They were quick to respond and understanding of our needs. They also sent us daily updates with pictures and videos. Thank y’all very much :)”
7. Rachael B.
“Rachael took great care of my GSD for a week while I recovered from surgery. The updates and great pictures made me smile each day. Thank you Rachael and Pat for taking such good care of my Tony.”
8. Heather H.
“Wow, I’m speechless just how amazing this experience was not only as a human, but my puppy was happy and clean when I came back. Heather is truly an angel and I can’t speak to what a blessing she was for us to leave our fur baby! 10 stars! Can’t thank her enough.”
9. Shunita C.
“Ms. Shunita was a Godsend. Not only was she overly professional, but our furbaby absolutely loved her. She is attentive and responsive, and my dog didn't even want to leave when I picked her up. She provides kennels, but allowed me to bring my dog's bed (so she'd be comfortable) bc she doesn't sleep in her kennel at home. We are new to Louisville, and it was so reassuring to find someone we feel completely comfortable leaving our furbaby with.”
10. Heather W.
“Heather saved our entire vacation. We were 12 hours away and had left our baby with my brother and sis in law. They decided they could not keep him and we were hesitant to send him to a stranger. We did our research and checked the reviews. Heather was very accommodating and assured us that she could handle Jonnie. We got pics and updates daily. We will not depend on family and will rebook with Heather!”
11. Courtney E.
“Courtney and her crew are Beckleys vacation family 😍 they are such a blessing to us and the sweetest family ever! They care for our pup and make her feel like she’s at home. The photos and easy communication make the experience above and beyond!”
12. Sarah G.
“Sarah was great! She answered all my questions before booking. Sarah kept me updated with morning and evening pictures, my dogs were completely comfortable in her home. I will definitely trust Sarah to watch my dogs again.”
13. Sarah & Daniel T.
“Maverick had so much fun while we were vacationing! Sarah & Daniel stayed in contact throughout the entire week. We received several pictures and updates which eased my worried dog mom heart! I will definitely feel confident in using them again in the future for any dog sitting needs.”
14. Leah C.
“Leah is lovely, and my old girl felt very comfortable being cared for by her. Leah is kind and professional, and I’d happily have her watch my pup again.”
15. Berry & Benjamin S.
“Such a great experience with Ben and Berry! They kept us updated over the long weekend with pictures of Perry and obviously spent lots of time playing with her. She definitely loved her stay. They were super accommodating with schedule changes and overall very communicative. Will definitely use again!”
16. Mariah H.
