2. Emily B.

“Emily was such a bright person and an expert at taking care of dogs. I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her. My dog seemed happy and well-cared for when I returned. I highly recommend Emily as a dog sitter.”

“Did fantastic with her and her family! Super amazing”


4. Katelynn R.

“This was our first time leaving our 1-year-old dog with someone outside of the family since we got him. Katelynn was awesome with Zeus and was great with him from the very start! He typically is very scared of new people and refuses to leave our side but she made him feel comfortable and safe from the start! She kept us up to date throughout the day which made us feel safe. We will definitely have Zeus stay with her next time, she was wonderful and I would highly recommend her!”




5. Hilary R.


“Very accommodating and good communication!”


6. Ross & Ava T.

“Despite the late request, Ross answered very quickly and was able to arrange a brief meeting the same night for Murdoch and his dog to meet. The day after, we left Murdoch with Ross and Ava and everything went monthly with a few pictures of Murdoch's day. I recommend Ross and Ava !”


7. Julie W.


“Julie was a delight to have host our dog Morty for daycare. She is an exceptional communicator and made Morty feel right at home.”


8. Ethel V.

“This was Deuce (my Yorkie’s) first dog care experience and it was a successful. Ethel was a great communicator and made this a great experience. Although this was the first time, it certainly will not be the last! Thank you Ethel!”


9. Kyla B.
“Kyla was absolutely amazing with my Maltese, Jasper! She provided daily photos and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly responsive and kept me updated every step of the way. When I had an unexpected emergency and needed her to watch Jasper for a few extra days, she didn’t hesitate to accommodate me. It’s clear she is an experienced and caring pet owner, and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for my pup. I highly recommend Kyla to anyone looking for a reliable, loving pet sitter!”


10. Courtney A.

“Very accommodating for a last minute request! My pup came home tired and fell asleep immediately so he definitely enjoyed his time there! Love that’s there’s a fence for them to play in!”


11. Danielle K.

“Danielle and Matt were amazing - so responsive and helpful with our dog despite the last minute ask. They kept us updated about how he was doing throughout the day as well which is always appreciated!”


12. Tyler H.

“I’d highly recommend Tyler as a pet sitter or walker. She has owned dogs all her life (and a few cats too!) and is a loving and caring owner, and your furry friends will be in great hands with her!”


13. Jaime S.

“Jamie was great with my German Shepherd! This was the first time Ada was away from me or her 3 siblings. Little nervous the first day but after that she looked forward to going with Jamie once she saw him. Her acceptance of him made me more relaxed. Very glad I found Jamie on Rover!”


14. Keesha L.

“Great experience with Keesha and family. From the moment we contacted them, the communication was prompt and we were able to set up a time quickly. We dropped Ollie off for a short 4 hour visit and everyone was very friendly and nice. Ollie was very happy and seemed to enjoy his time at Keesha’s house. We would recommend this sitter and use them again! :)”


15. Raye J.

“Brodie had another wonderful stay with Raye! As always, Raye was communicative and shared lots of updates throughout the day. Thank you, Raye! We are so appreciative of the peace of mind you provide.”

17. Keith C.
About: I am a long time dog owner that works from home and is able to keep a close eye on your family pet. My dog, Sasha, loves other dogs, and will gladly welcome a new friend to play with all day long. I work from home permanently, and I’m able to provide supervised daycare services on a daily basis. Additionally, I am very active with my dog, and we take several walks per day, in the morning, midday, and in the evening. I have a backyard that is fenced and safe for outdoor play. I have a dog, Sasha, that loves other dogs and loves to play. She is a very energetic three year old and loves to run in the fenced backyard, as well as go on long walks.


18. Jasmine L.

“Jasmine was so accommodating with not only a last minute booking but on a holiday weekend as well. Annie had an amazing time at her house and was sufficiently exhausted after a day of running around the huge backyard. Would definitely book again ?”


19. Maggie K.
“On several occasions, Maggie has cared for our dogs, cat and chickens when we were out of town. She is extremely responsible and attentive to the care of our animals. We know our furry and feathery friends are in great hands when Maggie is watching them! We whole heartedly recommend her!”
