“Marlena was great and super accommodating! I love that Marlena was so active with my dog, she was able to run around and swim and get all her energy out. I'm very grateful for her watching my dog!”


“I truly appreciate how well you treated Soul and how well informed you ensured I was. My mind was completely at peace while he was under your care. Also thank you for the bonus photoshoot of my sweet baby Soul. Soul will definitely be back ❤️”


“We honestly don’t have enough words to express our gratitude for Joe and Reanaleena. Leaving our pets behind is never easy, but knowing they were in your care gave us complete peace of mind. From the very beginning, your warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for animals shone through. You took the time to understand our pets’ routines, personalities, and quirks—and it showed. Our old man Perseus, who’s typically low energy, came out of his shell annd had a blast (I’m sure the barkaritas help). And our high-energy husky Atlas was calm, happy, and clearly well-exercised when we got home! We loved receiving daily updates and photos; it was clear they were not only well cared for but truly loved. You treated them like your own, and for that, we are forever grateful. Thank you for going above and beyond. You’re more than a pet sitter—you’re family now.”

Lake Forest dog parents share their Rover experiences
Jessica was great!! She sent lots of pictures and kept in touch to let me know how my dog was doing on a regular basis. My dog often can have anxiety, but she was very comfortable with Jessica and her pets. I would absolutely use her again in the future!

Stormi was great! Our boys came home happy and energetic. She sent pictures and check-ins during our trip. She came through in a last minute change of plans. Can't say enough positive things about the overall experience. Thanks Stormi!

Nhi is the Best! My dog didn't want her to leave! She took great care of him from start to finish. She is so easy to work with. I will use her over and over!
