“Our dog Pepper stayed overnight with Laura and Ryan and she had a great stay. Laura is really great at sending updates and very easy to communicate. There are lots of fun things for dogs to do at their house and Pepper came home happy and healthy. We will definitely have Pepper stay with them again!”


“She did such an amazing job I don’t even know where to begin!!! She was punctual and took such good care of our dog. She was always in contact with list of updates and videos for our family as this was our first time away from our puppy. She did amazing work and I will absolutely be recommending her to everyone that I know!!!”


“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.”


“John and his wife Kathy go over and above to create a comfortable environment for our dogs. They boarded them for two weeks and we got regular reports. We never had to worry about our two dogs, other than to worry if they’d ever want to leave John and Kathy’s! I cannot recommend them highly enough!”


“Jennifer was AMAZING with our pup Junie! This was the first time we have utilized Rover.com and we were anxious about leaving Junie with someone we didn't know. Jennifer communicated with me weeks in advance and answered all of my questions. Junie immediately felt comfortable and Jennifer texted me pictures and updates throughout the day, which I LOVED. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone who needs a super responsible and sweet dog-sitter!!”


“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!”


“Mary and Norman watched our fur baby while on a week’s vacation and they exceeded our expectations! Not only were they very accommodating with our schedule, they also sent daily updates and made our dog feel right at home - they treated her like their own! Mary and Norman will be the first we call whenever we need a pet sitter.”


“We have used Melody twice to watch our miniature dachshund, Phoebe. The most recent stay was 7 nights; Melody did an excellent job providing cute photos and videos daily. Phoebe had a fun time going on walks and playing fetch with all of her toys. We would definitely use Melody again!”



“She was amazing and so easygoing considering it was last minute and over the holiday weekend. She treated Bowie like one of her own and we will definitely consider her again!!!”



“Our baby has high anxiety. Jennifer and Aaron took her needs and helped her thought it. Our baby came home happy, healthy and missing their baby. We will being using them again in the near future and hopefully they are never booked so we have to find another sitter. ? They really love dogs and enjoy doing what they do. Thanks so much guys! See you in a few weeks.”

“This was our first time using a pet sitter and in home boarding. Lorena is so sweet and caring to our pup Lucy. She kept in contact with us and that was so reassuring. Sent pictures and videos often. Lorena's home was set up in a way that was great for dogs...fenced in large yard, and no carpet for easy cleanup. Clean and tidy. Will definitely use Lorena again, happy to have found her!”


“The absolute best! Jordan cared for our Bowie and especially our Senior Lola with the utmost care and attention. He was amazing with both dogs and we will use him again without question.”

“Devin was amazing! I really appreciate her because she showed so much patience with my dog, even though he was giving her a tough time. She still cared for him and kept me updated every time. Once again, thank you, Devin.”


“Thank you Yolanda and family for loving Evie like your own! I am very grateful that Yolanda cared for Evie like I would. This gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation! Upon greeting, her and her husband were so welcoming and nice people and I knew right away Evie would be in good hands! She was very communicative and responsive when needed! It was just the right amount of communication that didn’t have me worrying but also didn’t bother me. Yolanda sent picture and video updates which I loved! She reached out with questions right away and responded quickly. I would definitely recommend her to anyone I come across! I am truly grateful to have found her to give my Evie the care and love! I felt she was safe and a home away from home! Best wishes to Yolanda and her family and I will definitely be back in the future!”
