“I wish I could give 20 stars! Noelle and her family were the most thoughtful and loving people I could let babysit my puppy, Barney. She sent so many pictures and updates I had no worries he was in great hands. This was also my first experience using Rover, so I was also a little nervous, but once we dropped him off I could see how well cared for he would be. You can truly see how much her and her family love and care for the animals, Barney became one of her own for 2 nights. I could not thank her enough! If you’re looking for someone to look after your dog, Noelle was amazing and I would definitely recommend her to anyone who asks!”
“I will definitely book Tynesha and her family again, they were wonderful the entire time Empire was with them. Constant photos and updates throughout his time. Thank you again🩷”
“Jacqueline took incredible car of our 11 year old Harley while we were on vacation. Treated him like he was her own and kept in great contact. I recommend!”
“This was my first time using the service although I've been a member for almost six months now. I had to go out of town for 8 days and I had no idea who was going to watch my very adorable Yorkie Poodle. I called into the service and gave them very specific requests that my dog needed in a sitter and I must say that they truly delivered. I was given 3 options and I choose Jennifer L. She was truly a Godsend to me and my dog Max. Her response time is extremely quick, she's flexible, she's super loving and sweet. I knew after our initial conversation that Max would be left in GREAT hands and that made me feel better knowing that he'll be OK in her care. I would also like to say that my dog doesn't warm up to strangers or new environments easily. Jennifer L. or as I like to call her (The Dog Whisper) had my dog eating out the palm of her hands both figuratively and literally once they immediately met. She sent me videos of them lounging, playing and traveling around town. I will say it once twice a million times this woman is the BEST!!! U WILL NOT REGRET USING JENNIFER L. ONE BIT. In fact I'm going to use her services EVERY opportunity that I can...that's how much Max and I love her...lol!!!!”
“Jose and his family were wonderful and treated Louis like their own. Louis is typically shy at first but from the pics Jose sent me, it seemed like Louis was very comfortable and enjoyed time with Jose and his family. I would definitely bring Louis back to Jose for pet sitting.”
“Elena was wonderful with our pup. He had a great stay and she was incredibly warms s accommodating to his needs during his stay. She sent pics daily and let us know how he was adjusting. Our little guy made friends with her pups and kitty, he had a great time! Thank you so much for taking such good care of him!”
“I’ve booked with Naomi many, many times now. She’s wonderful and Kubo loves to go back. She takes care of him and loves him like he’s her own. Not to mention that Naomi is so kind and sweet herself. She updates me about how Kubo is doing each time I book with her and always welcomes him back with open arms, even if I request a last-minute booking. Definitely book with her. She’s the best. :-)”
“Nancy was fantastic! Super communicative, flexible, and understanding. Sent updates and pictures. Nancy is warm, and Alvy was well cared for, and returned happy as a clam. Will definitely return to Nancy and recommend to others!”

“So thankful I found Desiree! She took such great care of my dog while we were away. She was always so quick to respond and provided me with detailed daily updates. I never had to worry that my dog wasn’t in good hands. He had a great time and was made to feel right at home!”
“Kira and her family welcomed our dog, Sylvie, over the Thanksgiving holiday. It was clear Sylvie was having a great time and was well cared for during her visit— Kira was responsive and shared updates throughout the day. Sylvie was sad to leave her new playmates and we will definitely reach out to Kira the next time we need dog sitting help! Thank you!”
“Neerav and Nitasha accommodated us for a last minute request and sent us pictures and videos daily. Our pup came back relaxed and happy. Would definitely rely on them again!”

“Our dog had a wonderful stay. You can tell Ekaterina loves animals. Our dog was comfortable with her from the moment they met. It was so comforting to know our pet was in such good hands. We got a lot of pictures and you could tell our dog was enjoying her stay with Ekaterina's family.”
“This was the first time my dog Pixel stayed with Ziming, but definitely not the last! Pixel had plenty of daily exercise, running around the backyard with the other pups - staying with Ziming was like a luxury vacation for my dog :) Ziming was also sending daily pictures, so I wasn’t worried at all about how my dog is doing. He looks happy and healthy and definitely wouldn’t mind staying there a bit longer :) Overall 10/10, couldn’t recommend more!”
“Ka was great in taking care of my dog Sweetheart. She gave constant updates pictures and videos! Sweetheart returned home to me as her usual happy self! I will never board her at Petsmart again! Noticeable difference in being cared for by loving dog sitters!”
