“Once again great family and excellent dog sitters! I’ve left my golden doodle quite a few times and we already call them her second family!..her home away from home!”


“Ashley was amazing! I can’t recommend her enough, we were first time Rover users and she made us feel so comfortable with the whole process. She sent us updates twice a day and loved our dog like her own. We will definitely be using her again!”


“Absolutely amazing, very inviting and took care of Lola and Kreacher like we would at home, both kids were happy as could be and that's saying a lot for cats!”


“Amanda is amazing! My two pups love staying at her house. Amanda adores her own dogs and treats them like family, and when my girls were with her they got the same attention, love, and care that she gives her own. I felt VERY comfortable leaving my dogs there for the first time. I knew they were in great hands and were living their best life while I was away. Amanda took them on lots of walks and sent many cute pictures and updates, too. She was also very willing and happy to do things the way our pups are used to at home. Thank you, Amanda! Poppy and Sunny will definitely be staying here again.”


“If you treasure your dog you will want to leave him/her with Bob and Vicky. They went the extra mile of interacting with my sweet dog, Hetty. They walked her, played tug, and introduced new fun toys to her play time. They also took time to cuddle and pet her. In short, Hetty received the same loving treatment as their dog, Jax. Daily they sent updates on Hetty along with pictures and videos. I could tell Hetty was having as much fun at their house as I was having on vacation. I highly recommend them and will use them again.”


“Amy was so accommodating and wonderful with our puppy! Her communication was excellent and she kept us informed on how he was doing. I highly recommend Amy!”


“Amanda is amazing!! She took such good care of my fur baby and sent us amazing pictures, videos, and texts the entire time! So grateful to know he was safe and well cared for. 💖 10/10 recommend!!”


“You know that sinking feeling when you leave your precious dog with someone else? You WILL NOT get that feeling here!! Their home is welcoming and our dog was comfortable as soon as he entered. Debbie and Ryan treated him as their own. Communications and pictures were sent regularly and it gave us the most comfortable feeling to know that he was well cared for. We may need to start taking more vacations so he can visit more often! Thank you!!”


“Raquel and her family were awesome!!! They took incredible care of Sosa. Gave her plenty of cuddles, walks, prepared her special meals, and her son spent extra time with Sosa making sure she was comfortable. Raquel also sent me plenty of photo updates which made us feel great. 10/10.”

“Jillian and her family were wonderful with our dog. They incorporated him into their lives and he had a great stay and was even sad to leave. While it was great to get home, he missed her kids and all their attention. I would definitely recommend Jullian.”


“Bobbie is very kind. She went above and beyond to make sure Zuzu was well cared for. She reached out when she had concerns about how much Zuzu was eating. Her granddaughters were adorable and so good with Zuzu.”


“Kristina was amazing with our senior Westie with some special needs. She made sure everyone was comfortable at drop off, gave plenty of updates with photos, and took great care of Tucker. She is clearly an experienced pet owner and sitter and we would definitely have Tucker stay with her again!”


“Thank you Alex and River! Penny the red heeler came home happy and clearly had plenty of exercise while at your home. Somehow she returned with better manners while walking on leash around other dogs. (?!). You know it went well because we are requesting another stay with A&R for a a few days next month.”
