Quanece & Malik are awesome! They are so helpful, go above and beyond and most importantly super loving and patient with my anxious pup. I am so grateful for their love and care that I know I can rely on when I’m not there. They are very easy to work with, flexible and communicative. Cannot recommend their services enough! Thank you!

Will was an amazing Rover. He stayed in communication every day and sent pictures each time he walked and fed the dogs. He was always on time to care for the dogs. He had no problems handling my larger dog that has a LOT of energy, along with my other older Husky. He was a great dog sitter and I would highly recommend him.

Ella was awesome!! She dog sat my 3 dogs. There is Trooper 141/2, Lily 22 and Harry 5 months. She handled all 3 like a pro. She took directions, listened when I explained how Harry was an escape artist, and Lily didn’t like strangers in her house. When I arrived back home 5 hours later all was quiet on the western front. I would positively use Ella again, I would also highly recommend her.

Tasha was reliable, flexible, caring, professional and an all around wonderful pup-sitter. She house sat our three dogs - who all have their unique quirks and needs. We were able to enjoy our week long vacation knowing they were all in good hands. We’d highly recommend, Tasha for your dog sitting needs.

This was our first time using Rover and we were a little apprehensive. Maria was excellent - very communicative and accommodating, particulary when it come to a small hiccup with the locks on our apartment. We couldn't have been more pleased with her service!
