“Stacie and Doug were so great with Kiki! She had an amazing time playing and cuddling with their yorkie Jane. Stacie also sent lots of pictures and gave many updates. I felt super at ease and I will definitely be booking with them again.”


“As always, we love sending Monty to Sarah and Brendan. Monty feels right at home and it makes us feel so good that he’s in a loving home, playing lots but in a more relaxing environment!”


“We had a great experience with Candace and Douglas. They took fantastic care of our senior dog and were very easy to coordinate and communicate with. We would trust them with our dog anytime and highly recommend them!”


“Karin did an awesome job, our communication was frequently, she understands what a dog mom needs. She sent me updates, photos and details. She take care of Noah like if was her own. She made me feel secure to be away from him. Ill recommend her 100%.”


“Malik was responsive and communicative. They kept everything simple and provided updates throughout my trip. I really appreciated their efforts. I would definitely book Malik again.”


“We had a great experience boarding our dog, Mel, with Maria! We planned a meet and greet to see how Mel got along with her two dogs, and then made arrangements for the weekend we would be out of town. Maria responded quickly to our messages, and sent us lots of pictures of Mel, including her playing in the backyard and cuddling on the couch. These pictures put us at ease, and we could tell Mel was having a great time!”


“Sarah continues to be a great resource when I need to travel. She takes wonderful care of Winnie and always shares updates to keep me in the loop while I'm away. Winnie loves to spend time with Sarah and Tobi!”


“We normally board Ryder at a doggy day care and ours happened to be booked that weekend. Kevin and Roselie must have made quite the impression on Ryder! Normally he is so excited to leave the boarding place but this time he clearly didn’t want to go! He actually seemed mad that I picked him up. Needless to say we will be taking him to Roselie and Kevin’s from now on!”


“Aspen was so great. I was nervous about using rover and leaving my dog with a stranger, but Aspen was amazing. She was very friendly and welcoming when I dropped my dog off; she told me that she would be to take Effie on a few walks throughout the day and that she might even take her up to the lake. She sent me daily pictures and updates about the walks she would take with my dog and just overall how my dog was doing. It was nice to get the updates/pictures while I was gone for the week and put me more at ease with leaving her. There was a portion of Effie’s stay that another dog was going to be there and Aspen was very accommodating and wanted to make sure it was ok with me that there was another dog there (it was), but she even offered to go to my home on those days to let Effie out if it was not. I would definitely recommend Aspen and would use her again in the future :)”


“We continue to look to Anastasia as our first choice of sitter! She communicates well and we never have to worry when we leave or pup as we know he is in good hands!”


“Great match for us!!! She was waiting for us when I arrived, super nice, replied to my messages right away and sent pictures of Luna (my dog) throughout her stay! Luna will definitely stay again with Martha! I could tell right away Martha knew what she was doing. She walked Luna around outside before she brought her in! Very impressive! I would have never thought to do that!”


“Miriam did such an amazing job with our senior pup, he usually takes a long time to warm up to a new family, but he felt so comfortable and at home even from the very first meeting. We have found our forever sitter, thank you for treating Marlo like family!! we will absolutely be booking again!”


“My dogs, Ozzie & Elvie, were well taken care of and spoiled by Julie & her son. They also enjoyed hanging out with their dog, Abby and being outside taking walks. Julie was great with updates and photos every day. We will definitely be back!”


“Our dog stayed at Abby’s for a long weekend. He seemed really comfortable there right away. They seemed to treat him like their own. I would definitely take him there again.”

“Keeley and family took excellent care of our sweet dog!!! He had a blast running around their beautiful yard and came back exhausted from all the playing. ? definitely recommend!”


“Anna and Christian are amazing!! Felt so comfortable leaving Tate with them and they sent me so many photos of him and he looked like he was having the best time! Thank you so much guys!!”


“Leonard and his family were wonderful, they sent pictures multiple times a day and treated my pup as if he were their own! Thank you so much!!!! Will book with again.”


“Hands down one of the best rovers we have had. She pays attention to detail, frequent updates, you can tell she has a really good soul and a love for animals. Came home with a report card and all! Will use again.”


“Sacha was the best dog sitter we could’ve asked for! She took such good care of our fur baby. Not only did she send updates, but photos as well. I could tell that she did everything possible for our pup. Easy 5 stars. I highly recommend booking with Sacha. You and your dog will be glad you did! :)”
