“Meri took excellent care of Cookie and provided regular updates with photos. She was very responsive and eager to make sure that Cookie had an excellent stay with her. I highly recommend her.”
“Cindy was outstanding with Elmo, he warmed up to her very quickly considering he has a reserved nature and resistance to routines changing. She was also very communicative and allowed for a straight forward reservation and handoff.”
“With a senior dog, we do get nervous about leaving mango new places. I would say within five minutes of the meet and greet it was clear that Shanilka and her husband would be taking great care of him. They asked all the right questions and during our stay sent regular updates to make sure we knew he was in good hands. Would definitely use again!”
“Evan and Megan were great sitters! They communicated well the entire time we were gone and sent us pics to keep us up to date on how our puppy was doing. Highly recommended.”
“Natalia and Edward are fantastic! I’ve used them twice now and have nothing but positive things to say! They’re great about sending daily updates. I will for sure use again!”
“Chad and Regina are the best and our go to caretakers for our pup when we go out of town. They keep us updated and take great care of him. Highly recommend!”
“Masha and her family took excellent care of our dog. She sent updates a couple of times a day, pictures and videos included. We were able to relax in vacation knowing that our dog was comfortable with her. We would definitely book again!”
“Absolutely wonderful! They took extra care to ensure our German Shepherd girl would eat. She often will not eat while boarding. They made sure she felt comfortable and also sent us a ton of pics which made us feel very comfortable. Loved our experience with them!”
“Kelly was fantastic with our dog. She is extremely responsive and reliable, always careful to ask the right questions. Even with bad weather, Kelly took our dog on multiple walks. My kids loved seeing the many photos she sent. Our dog came home very happy and cared for.”
“Alejandro is amazing! He is very knowledgeable about dogs and treats them like his own. I definitely plan to use him again and I would highly recommend him for your dog.”
“Sonia and her family were a perfect match for my dog who likes to lounge around. Sonia was flexible with time and my dog seemed very comfortable in her home and around her.”
“Thomas was an absolutely amazing and wonderful sitter for our little pup. We’re also so worried about leaving her with a sitter because she suffers from horrible anxiety and is so fearful of a lot of things (new people included), but from all the pictures that Thomas had sent us, it seemed like our little pup was able to quickly make a home and feel at peace for the duration of the sit. Besides being a good sitter for our fearful pup, Thomas was also very flexible and responsive. We had booked him so last minute, and we couldn’t get home in time due to the recent snow storm. As anxious as we were about these problems, Thomas was great and alleviated a lot of our stress by accepting and kindly taking care of our pup for even longer than intended. Highly recommend! And we hope to book him again sometime in the future!”
“Diana and her family took great care of our puppy while we were out of town. She sent daily updates and photos and was quick to respond to messages! We would trust Diana again with Pepper Ann if she is available!”
“I could not be more pleased with Kamille and her “krew”!! This was my first time using Rover so I was a bit nervous. She made sure to ease my concerns. My dog Milo had the best experience. She made sure to send plenty of pics and videos so I know how things were going while I was away. I appreciate the thorough communication and just overall great experience. I highly recommend Kamille and will absolutely be using her again when I travel ❤️”
“Edgar was able to provide a loving and non-hectic environment for our older dog. The environment is spacious and accommodating. His dog is great with other dogs, and they were able to coexist wonderfully. He was able to accommodate last minute from another sitter needing to cancel last minute (sorry, thank you), but I intend to give more notice next time we decide to have Edgar provide care for our dog when we’re away. Thank you again!”
“Brianne was great with my dog. She was conscientious and communicative, and I appreciated her location and timing flexibility when our flight was delayed. Would definitely book again.”

Bianca was a wonderful sitter. I knew the moment I met her that my pooch was in good hands which put me at ease. My dog takes time to warm up to people but he was well acquainted with Bianca so quickly. She provided frequent updates and I could tell my dog felt comfortable with her in photos. When I picked my dog up he was crying when she left and was searching for her. I would absolutely recommend her to look after your pet.
Adam and Megan took great care of our dog! They were so communicative and sent lots of pictures, videos, and updates. Our flight was delayed and they were so flexible and patient! Our dog gets very sad when we leave and he looked incredibly happy the whole weekend with Megan and Adam!
I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog with Samantha for the two weeks I was away. She made the whole experience personal by sending pics and videos every day, which gave me real peace of mind. I was happy with everything and would definitely recommend her. I would most definitely leave my dog with her again. 🙂🐶🐕🎀
We couldn't be happier with Felisa! This was Sassy's first stay with her, and she was comfortable from the moment they met — which says everything about Felisa's calm, welcoming energy with dogs. Felisa sent pictures every day, so we always knew Sassy was happy and well cared for. Seeing her on shady walks surrounded by green space was such a relief. Sassy looked relaxed and at home the entire time. We'll absolutely be booking with Felisa again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive sitter
Stacy, Jeff and their kiddos welcomed Francis into their home and made him feel at ease. They were excellent communicators and took great care of Francis. We were thrilled to have Francis stay in such a loving home. We will definitely use them again when we need care. Thank you!
Elena took our care request even in the last minute. Our dog Mya ended up having fun, and we appreciate Elena for sending us photo updates without us having to ask. ❤️ She’s the best and for some reason we were so confident and comfortable that Mya is being taken care of 🥰
Robin was great! We had a good meet and greet to prepare Lenny for his stay. Robin communicated proactively and sent us lots of great pictures of his stay. She has a wonderful home for dogs, and Lenny couldn’t get enough of her beautiful backyard! We would love for Lenny to stay with Robin again.
