“Christina’s family is so caring and loving! You can tell how much their kids enjoy hanging out with Milo and accepted him as part of the family. It’s so great to see how sweet their dog Brydie is too! I know he always has a great experience with Christina and her family 💗”
“Pebbles really enjoyed her stay with Sarah! Sarah was great at communicating and kept us updated with pics while we were away. Highly recommend and will be using Sarah again for our pup!”
“This was our first time leaving our pup for more than a few days and needless to say we were only a little tightly wound about it. But Shirley made us feel like we could breathe on our travels and actually be present in the moments. Not only did she keep him loved and cared for, but she was the ultimate documentarian, showering us with plenty of pics and videos to never feel left out. I would highly recommend Shirley for any pet care taking needs, and would love to have her watch Kaito again.”
“First timer to book through Rover and it was a smashing success! Juliet seemed well cared for and entertained while her family left her for a long weekend. I would definitely book with John again. I think that Juliet got to hang with another dog put her at ease in a new home. And loved that we received periodic photos of her enjoying her vacation. Thank you!”
“Michelle and family took great care of Penny- even coming up with new tasty food items for my picky girl. I really appreciate how well she is taken care of which allows me to have peace of mind while away”

With our Goldendoodle he had a blast! Angelica is caring and thoughtful. I would recommend to all my friends and family members. Thank you for what you do!”
“Thank you so much, Malchom and family, for taking such great care of Atlas! We booked last minute, and Malchom was incredibly accommodating. We’re so grateful to have found a sitter close to home who is communicative, attentive, and clearly loves dogs. Atlas was in great hands!”

“Erin was great help and took amazing care of our Shiba Inu for several days! We appreciated her communication and being so thorough to cater to our dog’s needs, as he is a bit high-maintenance. Our dog got plenty of exercise and play time with Erin’s dog. I would highly recommend!”
“Karin is great with communication and providing updates! I also appreciated how she introduced our pup to her own dog and home. Our dog, Hank, felt right at home immediately”
