1. Chris H.

“This was our first time using Chris and we were so thrilled that he took great care of our almost 14 yo dog Charlie. He sent a daily picture and comments as to how Charlie’s was doing. Charlie’s required daily eye drop and Chris readily complied without hesitation. We will surely use him again!”

“Rocky loves staying with Kathryn and her family. She is very attentive, keeps me updated and also sends me pictures.

5. Daphne P.

“Daphne was so great with Jake. Very patient and easy to workmwith. Our boy gets anxious when left alone at night. He is used to sleeping in our room. I forgot to let Daphne know and he barked for a while in their living room. Daphne texted me and we let her know he isnt used to sleeping alone. She hung out with him to calm His anxiety down and she slept on the couch with him. She was so kind and we appreciated that. Definitly someone we would trust our pup with.”


6. Carol W.

“Carol was EXCELLENT with our dog. She was available for a meet and great ahead of time and watched him for a full week. During that week, she treated him with the utmost love and attention, truly as if it were her own dog. She was also very responsive to messages and sent updates as requested. We felt so at ease and comfortable knowing our fur baby was in good hands while we traveled. One of the best rover experiences we’ve had to date! Will absolutely use her again.”


7. Alissa S.

“Alissa’s home is perfectly setup for dog care. She helped me with a last minute booking so I could help my family out with a medical emergency and I’m very grateful. I got lots of happy photo updates of Wallace and think he had a fun time and greatly enjoyed Alissa’s big fenced in backyard.”


8. Michael & Tracy M.

“They were just perfect for both Ruby and I. They loved my dog and I was very happy with there service. While I don’t get away often, it’s nice to know I can without worrying about Ruby while I’m gone. These people are down to earth and professional. They listen and follow my instructions to the letter. My dog has bouts with diarrhea and they handled it for eight days doing what I asked and my dog was good the entire time.”

12. Siobhan A.

“Siobhan was amazing and sent lots of pictures and videos throughout Lavender’s stay. Her yard is fenced in and Lavender sure enjoyed getting to run around with her dogs. I’m pretty sure Siobhan even groomed Lavender’s paws for me!!!! Lavender has definitely found a home away from home when I’m traveling. Thanks a million!!! Lavender misses her pals already.”


13. Sebastian A.

“Sebastian is a rockstar of a dog sitter! He took such great care of our 1 year old bernadoodle, Karma, for a week at his house. I had a very last minute trip that I couldn’t bring her on, and he was accommodating and responsive. She had so much fun with him and his dog Leo, and the other pups that were there. He took her on walks and they played inside and outside all day. Sebastian obviously loves dogs and treated Karma like his own. He also updated me the entire time, multiple times a day with pictures and videos, which I so appreciated. His house is beautiful and has a very large fenced in backyard. He is a professional groomer and gave Karma a full grooming before I picked her up. She looks amazing, and I’m super picky about grooming. Overall, I’d highly recommend Sebastian and will 100% be using him again for dog sitting and grooming. Thank you Sebastian!!!”

“During the time my Rocky spent with Vivian, she stayed in communication with me on a regular basis, and showed Rocky the same attention and affection that he would have received at home. Vivian is trustworthy, and my Rocky had a great stay with her. I highly recommend her dog sitting service.”


17. Sarah N.

“Sarah was awesome, great communication with lots of pictures. Cooper would usually come home from boarders stressed out after being away from me but not this time. I can tell he was treated as part of the family.”


18. Karolyne D.
“Karolyne is a very responsible and loving pet caregiver. I let her watch my dog for a week while on vacation and she was awesome! She always took my dog for walks and when I came back my dog was sad she was leaving!”


19. Joe R.

“Joe was very attentive to both aurora and Loki needs especially when it came to dietary special needs. They both got daily walks as well as lots of much needed exercise for huskies. Joe has a large fenced in yard so that the dogs got lots of outdoors time. Thank you Joe”


20. Kristie, Mark & Katie B.
“Tuukka had an unreal time with Kristie, Mark, and family. I felt so comfortable leaving Tuukka with them for our wedding/honeymoon that I was a little worried he wouldn’t want to come home with us!! Kristie and Mark really treated him as a part of their family, and I know, if I ever need someone to watch him again, I can trust Kristie and Mark to welcome him with open arms (and Tuukka to run right into them)!!! Thank you thank you thank you for all the photos and videos and always being available for more <3 We cannot thank you enough for taking the best care of our pup!!”
