“Sierra was great! My dog Gus came home happy, exercised, and with a well-needed trim :) Sierra made sure to communicate often and sent many photos throughout the weekend. I will definitely use her services again.”
“Cherylee took such great care of my young cat. She had awesome toys for him, kept him entertained and sent me photos and videos. I felt really good about leaving him in her care. I was nervous and worried about leaving him for the first time but all went purrfectly! I will definitely use Cherylee and Steven again!”
“She took excellent care of our boy and he had a great time playing with the sweet Lucy. Courtney provided us with updates and pictures and was always easy to get a hold of.”
“I could immediately tell that my dog settled in for her stay easily. I loved the updates, and working with them was super easy. I hope to use their services again in the future.”
“Kendra was great! She was flexible and communicative and my older dog had a slight seizure while in her care and she kept her cool and also made me feel comfortable from afar! My dogs enjoyed their visit and would definitely recommend and book again!”
“Lisa was great. Our sweet but nervous pup settled in quickly and seemed to feel comfortable and happy. Lisa was very accommodating to our schedule and attentive to my dogs needs pertaining to her anxiety. We received frequent updates and photos. Her home provided plenty of soft comfy landing spots for your pup and a beautiful fenced yard that my dog loved. She was great with communication and we will definitely use Lisa again”
“Natalia and her husband provided excellent care for Gigi! They were so kind, and provided lots of updates and pictures, which we loved! I wouldn’t hesitate to have Gigi stay with them again (and Archie, of course!!). Thank you so much!! Look forward to seeing you again 🙂”
“Ashley was absolutely amazing watching Mika. Ashley not only treated her like her own dog but was very accommodating when I had to drop Mika off sooner than planned. Ashley is such a caring and honest person. If you want to leave your fur baby with someone, make sure to book with Ashley. Thank you so much Ashley for taking great care of Mika❤️”
“Rose was great. She was very flexible with setting up a meeting and drop off and pick up. She sent us pics of Cody while we were away. She even gave us some cute polaroids of Cody when we picked him up. She is very polite and her home was very dog friendly.”
“Another great stay! We always have such peace of mind leaving our dog Isla with Sonia. Sonia is so easygoing, very communicative, and our dog absolutely loves being there! She always comes home happy and tired from lots of playing. We so appreciate the excellent care that Sonia provides and will continue to be repeat customers going forward!”
About: Hey y’all! I have been an animal lover my entire life! Growing up, at all times in my household, we would have ‘the pack’ I.e. always three dogs 🐕 As an adult, I took in two cats and it was a done deal from there on out, I was officially a cat lady. I now have four cats, one with a thyroid disorder and diabetes, so I am very professional at administering the proper dosage of medicine in a timely fashion, whether it be in pill or shot form. All in all, I’m a professional wedding photographer looking to book up my spare time with adorable little faces to tend to! I had previously volunteered at a community cat shelter for a year but found it very difficult not to bring home kitties (my cat Hansel won my heart this way). I figured, this way, I’m able to help animals and animal lovers without the feeling of wanting to save every cute face I meet! I would be positively delighted to meet or zoom/FaceTime with anyone looking to have a responsible owner look after their munchkins. Looking forward to hearing from you soon! 💕 Love + Health, Therese As previously stated, I’m a wedding photographer, so my weekdays are spent at home editing. I have full availability in the winter (for obvs reasons) and in the summer will have gigs Fri, Sat, Sun sporadically, but nothing so concrete as it varies. In my home, all of my kitties get fresh water every day, multiple clean liter boxes, measured out (snap shut) ball jars of their max food intake by weight, and of course, lots of play time! I also ensure all bedding is cleaned weekly p.s. that the fur doesn’t pile up haha!
“Would 100% request Anita again. I'm am touched by her care for my pups, the daily updates, and shared media. I lucked out with her😭. I'm so glad coco played well with her dog 😍”
“Shawn was communicative from the start through to past when I picked Dakota up. Super friendly, super helpful and overall just great. Understanding of my concerns and Dakota’s wants and needs. Will definitely book with them again. :)”
About: I am very experienced of Feeding, Giving medication and most of all giving love and attention to them. Especially while there loved ones are away! I am a senior retired from the post office and I am open to all hours. Would be great to get up and walk your pet. I do not have a fenced in area but plenty of woods where we can travel on a harness or leash so it would be secure
“Julia is fantastic! She took such good care of both our pups while we were away. Especially our very anxious girl. She provided us with regular updates that gave us peace of mind. We will definitely continue to book with her moving forward.”
“Giovanni was very professional and he has a very loving home. His own pets are well cared for. He even has a 19 year old poodle mix! It’s a real testament to the TLC in the house that can bring a dog into his 19th year of life. Giovanni and my dog were fast friends and I look forward to working with him again soon.”
Johnston pet parents share their Rover experiences
I truly cannot recommend her enough! From the moment she started caring for my puppy, Sancocho, I knew he was in the best hands. Not only did she go above and beyond in meeting his needs, but she treated him with so much love, patience, and attention as if he were her own. What meant the most to me was the constant communication. She sent frequent updates, pictures, and videos that reassured me he was happy, safe, and well cared for. As a puppy parent, that level of thoughtfulness and transparency made all the difference. I never once had to wonder how he was doing. She exceeded every expectation, and I came home to a well cared for, happy pup. If you’re looking for someone reliable, attentive, and genuinely compassionate, she is the one. I would trust her with Sancocho again in a heartbeat!
