Casey was so communicative with updates, videos, and pictures throughout my dog’s 2 week stay! I never worried about him because she was helpful and reassuring about his well-being and health, and did extra care to make sure he was ok after a minor injury and also when he wasn’t eating his usual food. Casey clearly loved dogs and treats them with the utmost care, and treated ours like her own (even letting him sleep in the bed, which is his usual place!). Will absolutely book with Casey again!

Brent is a good person and a great dog sitter. Maple and Mozzie's (Brent's dog) first meeting went great. They played very well together. The day we dropped off Maple at Brent's home, he and his wife were very friendly and inviting with us and our dog Maple. They explained everything involved with Maple's stay and activities in their home. He kept us updated with pictures and texts. I would definitely recommend Brent and Rover to other pet owners.

When we needed a sitter last minute on vacation Emily came to the rescue and was one of the best dog sitters we have ever had. Emily sent pictures through the day, followed all our care instructions and loved our baby like we do.

Ann took excellent care of my dog, Max! She ensured that he got plenty of playtime, and sent me plenty of pictures and updates daily. She even surprised me by giving him a good bath! She also kept him an extra night when I got stranded at the airport. She certainly has a passion for caring for dogs.

About: I have taken care of dogs throughout my life. From being certified as an adolescent to train for obedience and therapy. I also raise Cane Coros/english mastiffs. I have patience with anything that has paws! I do work full time. But I incorporate everyone’s schedules into mine. Whether that means I wake up earlier or go to bed later, to ensure everyone is taken care of. I have a pet friendly house hold. This includes my own animals who are crate trained. Pets are allowed to rest in the safety of their crates or the comfort of the couches. My own pets sleep in crates while they listen and watch their favorite Netflix shows!

Erin was great and her family was great as well. Leila seemed as if she was fitting right in with no hassle. Having a puppy, Erin and her family attentiveness was great for Leila still being potty trained. Erin sent a lot of pictures and updates and was very flexible with our travel plans.

Kelso was absolutely phenomenal!! She is truly an expert on all things related to cats, so my cat was in the best hands and I learned lots of new information on best practices to be a better cat mom :) Kelso gave comprehensive updates on a daily basis and really went above and beyond to make sure my little boy was comfortable and taken care of. I highly recommend Kelso—my cat will definitely be back during my next trip!

Ashton & Jenison were great!! They took daily pictures of Boomer and let me know how he was doing. Responsive to all my messages and were concerned immediately when Boomer was being picky with his food. Will definitely book again. He came back a very happy pup. And they were accommodating when our flight was delayed.

Allison and Dio were absolutely amazing!!! They took care of my sweet little Casper for over a week and a half during the Thanksgiving holidays while we were out of town. Casper enjoyed his day with Allison and her family! He had so many cuddles and treats, it was hard for him to come back to us. Thank you for taking good care of our little monster over the holidays.

This was an extended stay with Laura with my older girl as well as my spunky young boy. They absolutely adore her and she's so great at communicating and giving updates. She really made it easy being away for the first time in a year. She also was super responsive when I gave her some updates from the vet and super flexible with pickup and drop off time. I'm really glad we connected and my fur pups have a home away from home.

He was amazing! Asked great questions when I was dropping off my dog, and was great to communicate with me throughout my dogs stay with him! He is very polite, professional, and personal! My dog is also very shy and anxious, and she gets really nervous, and she seemed to have had a great time staying with him! Highly recommend, and when I need a dog sitter, I'll definitely use him again!
