“This is the second time I've used June and Wade. We had to add an additional day and thank goodness they were available! Another wonderful stay. Several pictures were sent. He really makes himself at home with them. Will definitely use them again!”
“Our pups had a blast running around Victoria's large spacious yard with her friendly pup. She has the perfect set up for watching dogs. With her calm demeanor, I was quickly at ease leaving my dogs with her. She provided the perfect amount of updates and videos while we were away. We will definitely be rebooking.”
“We felt secure and confident leaving our dog, River, with Carolyn for a little bit over than 2 weeks. Carolyn was very nice and patient, takes River out for walks and swimming. She sends us frequent updates and pictures and we love these updates especially since we miss our pup when we’re away. River is home now and may be a little bit sad since her stay with Carolyn seemed like a fun pup vacation. 😆”
“My skiddish Golden doodle is always very comfortable with Christine. I know she is being treated well and cared for. Peace of mind when I can't take her with me. Thank you Christine!”
“Katie is an absolutely amazing sitter. She sends so many updates, so you won’t be worried about your fur babies at all. My two dogs spend 4 days with her and they were treated like royalty. Kathleen is so detailed, even giving me a record of their feeding times, potty time and play time etc. She kept them very entertained and brought them for plenty of walks and fun time at the dog park. If my dogs could talk they would tell me they didn’t miss me. Lol. I recommend booking with Kathleen, she knows how to take care of your dog and they will be in great hands. Definitely booking again. Rating beyond: 5/5.”
“Kim was awesome! She sent us so many pictures and updates throughout our dogs stay I felt so reassured that he was happy and having a good time! We will definitely be using Kim again and I would highly recommend her to anyone with a first time dog stay or even one who’s done lots before!”
“My puppy, Corey, stayed at Jackie's home for 6 days while I was on vacation. She sent a bunch of pictures, several each day. Corey did not have to be leashed during his stay much at all, because Jackie has a beautiful fenced in backyard. I feel incredibly grateful to have found her on Rover. I could tell from the pictures that Corey was having so much fun and was in very capable hands. I was able to totally enjoy my vacation. Thank you so much, Jackie!”
“Jill is an amazing and professional dog sitter! She picked up my dog right from my house and took wonderful care of him for an extended period of time. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. I highly recommend Jill to anyone looking for the best dog sitter!”
“Jessica took great care of Avery. She was boarding another rat terrier at the same time and took steps to ensure the two dogs got along at feeding time. Her daughter made sure Avery got lots of love and exercise. She came home happy & healthy. Overall it was a great experience.”
“Barb, was absolutely wonderful. Very accommodating and communicative. Our dog is a picky eater and she even went as far as feeding him out of her hand to make sure he was eating enough. We couldn’t have asked for a better care taker for our fur baby. Will definitely book again!”
“This is the fourth of fifth time we used Patricia to watch over our dog. We've never had any concerns or worries once we've dropped him off. Patricia is wonderful to work with and loves our furry companion. Thanks as always!”
“Cannot express our thanks enough to both Liz and Kris for watching our little girl. They provided amazing updates, photos (many of which were hilariously edited and amazing), videos, and even a report card detailing her stay when we picked her up. So thankful to have found them and we will most certainly be booking again!”
“Derek and his family have been really caring with my dog Adele. She has enjoyed the stay playing with their lovely dog Elle. Derek has sent us pictures and updates so it has been a relief to see how happy was my dog with this family. We will repeat for sure!”
“Boris was wonderful with our Brownie. He sent cheerful videos and pictures throughout her stay. He was easy to communicate with and quickly responsive. We would certainly use Boris again if needed and recommend him to anyone.”
“Thank you Judy for an outstanding experience for our beloved dog and for all of us. Your love and caring for Tesla was so wonderful. You communicated twice a day with pictures and updates and they were detailed and reassuring. We really looked forward to our mini chats. Your responsiveness was also great. We knew we could reach you at any time, not that we needed to 😊. You also provided a safe and happy environment for him and he loved being in your home. He was a truly contented pup while he was with you. Words cannot express how grateful we are to you, for providing a home away from home for our dog. Thanks also for grooming him and keeping him in a tip top condition. We cannot say enough about the wonderful service and care you provided. We enjoyed our vacation so much more knowing he was in the best care we could have arranged for him. Thanks again and any dog is lucky to have a home with you while their owners need to be away. We certainly were. I cannot recommend you enough. You are truly the best!!!! 🐕💕🙏🥰”
“Michelle took wonderful care of my two babies. One of them was a little home sick and gave himself and upset stomach and had a little accident and she took care of him like he was her own. She is a wonderful sitter and I will use her again and again.”
“Freddy was well taken care of by Mike and Janet. We got plenty of pics and msgs about how Freddy was doing. We will definitely have Mike watch Freddy again when we leave town! Super nice people!!”
