“Bertie was amazing! I have a new rescue dog and he and the family were so gracious with Dolly. It let my husband and I relax and enjoy Charlotte while we were visiting! They sent a bunch of pictures to show she was in good hands (even tho she is a handful) Highly recommend!!!”

“Jesse and Emily were fantastic with Kimber. Great communication with me and all the love and spoiling for Kimber. I love how they made her part of their family for the long weekend!”

“Svitlana was great with our Border Terrier, Kimi. She sent updates and photos daily. She walked Kimi in the neighborhood and played ball with her in the yard. Kimi came home happy, so we will hire Svitlana again!”

“Hillary is a great sitter. A dog lover, she was so engaged and involved with our 2 Goldens during the week they stayed with her and her family. She sent multiple pictures, videos, and texts every day. The dogs were in great shape when we picked them up and it was clear that that they had been very well cared for. It is so comforting to know that your beloved pets are in good hands and Hillary exudes that type of confidence in her care. We are empty nesters and could tell from the videos and pics that the dogs loved playing with her children. I highly recommend Hillary!”

“Ava took great care of my two dogs. She’s got a huge backyard that’s fully fenced in. My pup, Jagger, didn’t want to leave come pick up time! I’ll definitely use her services again.”

“I had to find a dog sitter while I was overseas because the person who was taking care of my dog couldn’t do it anymore. Brooke was very responsive and accommodating, and took good care of Rain. I would recommend her to others.”

“Julie and her family took wonderful care of Willa! She got to go on plenty of walks and enjoyed lots of snuggles. Julie sent pictures and was easy to communicate with. Willa came home happy and we will definitely book with her again!”

“Cash had the best time on his weekend stay with Aly. He had a Super Bowl party with new friends! I got lots of updates and could tell he was happy and relaxed. When I went to pick him up he said hello and trotted right back inside, he was not ready to leave! I know he will be so excited to go back to his new vacation house whenever we have to leave town!”

“Jani and Paul were wonderful dog sitters. They have a big fenced in yard and a beautiful home where the dogs are treated like royalty. I picked up my dog around dinner time and they had the thoughtfulness to feed him before I picked him up and also gave him a toy that he loved to play with. Jani and Paul were recommended to me by friends who use them with regularity as well. I would use them again for sure!”

“Rebecca took great care of my Pepper while I was away. She sent daily updates and made sure she got plenty of play time! Pepper loved being able to run around and play in the large fenced in yard!”

“5+ stars!! Mark and Daniel are wonderful. They are kind and gentle and made the whole process seamless. Our energetic German shepherd had surgery a week before our trip and they were able to help keep him comfy, monitor his healing, help give medications, and spoil him! We would absolutely book with them again and recommend to anyone who is nervous about leaving their pup! Very communicative and they truly go the extra mile to care for your pet like it’s their own ❤️”

“Cynthia is definitely the best dog sitter I have met! Her and her family are incredibly sweet. My previous sitter canceled last minute and she responded and agreed to care for my Bailey at the last minute. I’m so grateful! Not only is she prompt with response, but she sent frequent updates and pictures. She has a big back yard and took Bailey on a fun excursion! Definitely worth the drive outside of Charlottesville! Will highly recommend!”

“Mariellen and Robert were wonderful! They sent daily updates with photos.They took Oakley on long walks and played games with him. He’s all tired out! Mariellen and Robert are good communicators and well organized. They left my house spotless. I will definitely call them again and recommend them to friends.”

“Great experience with Madison and Ryan. They were very responsive and all communications sent. Great updates including pictures took really good care of Cody, including plenty of woods walks and attention. They also managed his limes disease medication for the long weekend. Would definitely book with them again!”

“I could not have picked a better dog sitter. Nadia took such great care of my Alfie! I could tell from all the pictures she sent me that she really loved him. I am so thankful that I found her! Alfie had some rough times in his past but she handled his issues with great care and love ❤️”

“Kayla was absolutely the sitter I was looking to find for my sweet and shy pup. She was very communicative and sent pics throughout his stay to keep me updated on how he was doing. When I picked him up, I could tell that he was comfortable and had been well cared for. I will absolutely be using her again :)”

“Nana took amazing care of Oliver, ensuring he was happy, well-fed, and loved while I was away. He provided regular updates, photos, and even went the extra mile to adjust with our schedule. It’s clear they genuinely care about animals, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pet was in such good hands. Highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.”

“Alexandra was flexible and reliable. Her family was sweet. My dog loved the all the attention and playing with the other pups. After a long weekend away, my dog was tired and happy.”

Jesse, Emily, and their girls took wonderful care of our dog, Maya, for a long weekend this fall. They treated her like one of the family and gave her so much love and attention! Jesse is great about sending updates and pictures every day! It was a super experience all around and we will definitely use them again in the future!

Angel seemed very happy to stay with Indira for a week. Indira was flexible and accommodating with my work travel and her place was clean, organized, and a good calm space for my pup. She reached out when Angel was having a hard time and was able to resolve the issue quickly with some feedback. Would definitely use her again.

This was our first time leaving Pepe with a sitter and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, you never really know who you’re leaving your dog with. But Riley was exceptional from the very beginning. Even before I booked her, she helped me figure out how the app worked and made the whole process easy. During Pepe’s stay, she kept me 100% informed at all times with photos, videos, and messages. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. I truly felt peace of mind knowing Pepe was in her hands. I have no doubt he was well cared for, and I would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Riley, for treating Pepe like your own dog, we truly appreciate it.

Griffin was fantastic. I could tell how thoughtful and caring he was from when I first reached out. He has a calm reassuring presence and was very attentive to details about Sophie’s care, and immediately responded whenever I messaged him. He also sent me photo and video updates each day wherein I could tell how genuinely happy and relaxed Sophie was with him. It was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous about it, and I feel like I got so lucky. I highly, highly recommend Griffin for dog care!!

Brooke did an excellent job taking care of our dog. She was very responsive to all our messages and sent regular updates and photos each day. She was also incredibly flexible with our pickup time after a delayed return flight. We definitely would book with Brooke again!
