“Tyler & Patricia were amazing! I got daily updates and photos of my dog (adorable ones too!) and they were so kind and accommodating. I have already planned to book with them in the future. Sushi seemed to really love staying with them too :)”

“Moose 2nd time here and he loves it. Ximena and her whole family is very passionate with Moose. He loves staying at their home. For Moose, it's like home.away from home ❤️❤️❤️. Definitely will rebook again.”

“This was my first time ever using Rover to find a pet sitter and we think we found the pit of gold at the end of the rainbow. Angela was absolutely amazing! My son was extremely worried about leaving his dog with anyone but family for the very first time. But the updates and photos we received put his mind at ease that Pluto was having a great time on his own mini vacation. Thanks to this, we were able to better enjoy our own vacation. I cannot say enough positive things about our first time with Angela and Rover.”


“Lindsay was a great dog sitter for my dog foxy. Foxy had an overnight stay at her home with her two dogs and it was wonderful. Lindsey was very flexible with my schedule and would keep me updated on the dogs daily activities. She is very attentive. I will use her services again.”

“Brittany was an amazing host! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily check-ins and pictures. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her home.”

“Lianna did a great job with Diesel and Taquito. She was able to meet me at car to assist in bringing the overnight items. I was invited in to meet the other dogs staying the night which allowed my dogs to settle in. She was transparent in what the flow would be for the stay and sent pics 2x a day. I would use her again! It was a great experience.”

“Corrine and Louis were perfect! I felt our dogs were cared for just like they are at home and will definitely request to book again in the future when needed.”

“Arriyanna is always so amazing. Works with our hectic schedule and last minute changes. And didn’t have a problem when we added a new member to the family. She’s the literal best, and our go-to sitter as long as she’ll have us!”

“This was our first time leaving our BoBo. Amie has made his stay very comfortable and such a loving environment. Will definitely rebook in the future. She provided daily pictures and kept us updated regularly.”

“Michelle was awesome! She sent me lots of photos and videos of her playing with her two dogs and just chilling in the house. Michelle was very flexible with me and my work schedule. She even gave Remy a bath before coming home. Remy came home tired and happy. I plan to use Michelle again!”

“This is our first time having a sitter for our baby Maggie. I cried so much the night we dropped Maggie off to Marby. I was so scared and my separation anxiety was through the roof. We met Marby and her husband and they ensured Maggie will be fine. Throughout the 5 days our baby stayed with them, Marby kept us updated, sent us photos and videos. Marby made us feel at ease and I can truly say she treated Maggie as her own. Maggie made friends with their baby Mamba. We are truly thankful and grateful for Marby taking such good care of our baby.”

“A perfect experience! Angie is amazing. She took such good care of my little one. When I picked him up he was so calm and chill! Usually he can’t wait to jump back into my arms…and that was not the case this time. LOL. Her house is perfect with a danced in back yard, that he had access to all day. Angle sent me constant updates, photos and videos...which I LOVED. 5 STARS all around! Ziggy will definitely be back. Thank you so much for everything Angie!”

“We recently used Soonok as a dog sitter for the first time to care for our senior terrier, and the experience exceeded our expectations. Naturally, we were a bit anxious leaving our older dog in someone else’s care, but Soonok immediately put us at ease. Soonok was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, taking extra care to accommodate our dog’s needs and pace. What really stood out was the consistent communication—we received daily updates and videos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was in great hands and being treated with genuine care and affection. We’re so grateful for the experience and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Soonok to others. We will very likely be using her services again in the future.”

“Laura is amazing! I have used her services a few times and will continue to use her. She is very loving and caring! I know my furry pup is in good hands and I feel very comfortable leaving my furry baby with her and her loving family! Thank you Laura for loving my pup as if she were your own! You are simply amazing!”

“Wonderful sitter who took great care of our dogs and sent cute updates throughout the day! She took detailed notes and did everything we asked and our dogs were really happy with their care 😊”

“Marilyn has been excellent watching our dog on two seperate occasions now. She is great with communication, updates with pictures and has been very easy to work with. Our dog has been very comfortable in her home and we can tell that she has been very well cared for”

“This was Ness’s second time watching our pup Pretzel, and she was just as amazing as the first! Pretzel absolutely adores her, and it’s such a comfort knowing she’s in loving, reliable hands. Ness is warm, communicative, and genuinely cares; can’t recommend her enough. We’ll definitely keep coming back!”

“Jeimy is very sweet. We did a meet and greet before booking where I got to meet her and see the location. We got pictures and updates. Bella was well taken care of and made an easy transition to and from her booking. I would definitely recommend her and plan to book another stay in the future.”

We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter while we were out of town. They took excellent care of our dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We really appreciated their reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would absolutely trust them with our dog again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.

Tyler and Patricia took very good care of my 5 year old Shiba Inu. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby in their care. They kept me posted about their activities and kind enough to send me pictures of my baby being completely pampered and spoiled. I highly recommend them and will definitely bring Hachi back to them very soon!

Yasmin (and Olivia) were excellent pet sitters. My 105 lb labrador retriever was looked after well. He was their priority during his stay. Yasmin kept him busy with walks and runs. He was so exhausted that he slept as soon as we got back home. Was the calmest I had ever seen him. I would definitely return as a customer. I highly recommend Yasmin for boarding needs.
My dog Crimson has been watched by Brittanie twice now! She is so kind, communicative, and always keeps me updated with pictures. I can tell my dog absolutely loves her and feels comfortable and happy staying with her. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s well cared for and excited to go back!

We always board our 15lb Pomeranian with Lorraine whenever we go on extended vacations. She is always happy to stay there, which gives us complete peace of mind while we are away. They consistently send daily picture updates so we know how she's doing, and they are always flexible and accommodating with pickup and drop-off times. If you're looking for a dependable and caring sitter, we highly recommend them.

Lindsay was great with our 8-month-old puppy, Odie. She kept in touch throughout the day and sent photos, which we really appreciated. This was our first time using Rover, and we felt very comfortable with her experience and background. She also has two friendly dogs who welcomed Odie for the day, which made it even better. We will definitely book with her again in the future!

Huge thank you to Jeannie and Marvin for taking care of my pup for a week. They take wonderful care, and provided regular updates on how my boy Rigby was doing. You can tell how well they understand animal behavior, and can adapt to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible. 1000% would book with them again.
