He will offer safety love and communication! Thanks Arnav ❤️”

Aya was an amazing sitter. She communicated with me the whole time and I didnt have to ask for pictures because she already sent them! She was very responsive and understanding. I will be going back. Bluey loved her. Im very grateful she was able to watch her. Thank you Aya!
Yi took wonderful care of our dog. We got frequent updates and lots of photos on walks and eating. This was our first rover, so our dog got quite stressed being in a new environment but Yi did a really great job of taking care of him during that time. She was very thoughtful for our dog and stress mess he made. We really appreciate her for that.
Link and Ken took very good care of our golden retriever. I especially like that they take on walks and that they have a dog of some their own. Cindy likes to be with other dogs. Cindy is afraid of thunder storms and they were very patient with her. I will definitely use them again.
For Rover: Dave and Jess were exceptionally kind, thoughtful and professional, while caring for our 17 year-old dog, they even sang happy birthday to him when he turned 17! They noticed that he was stressed in missing us, which then turned into a UTI, which they’ve experienced, but we have not, I know in 17 years! So they contacted us and brought him to a 24 er which they had been to before and arranged for us to talk to them on the phone while we were on the other side of the country traveling. It all worked out great. We then picked up our beloved dog, Ferris and brought him home and he was no longer stressed, but still on the meds that Dave and Jess had started giving him. We cannot say enough, good things about their care and would definitely use them again.
Anne was absolutely wonderful with Toto! She took amazing care of her and kept me updated with photos and videos throughout, which gave me so much peace of mind. She’s very caring and attentive and Toto was so happy and relaxed with her! I’d definitely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving sitter.
We left our pup with Samantha and her husband for a one day visit, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! Samantha is very communicative and you can tell that she cares for your dog like her own. Our pup Apollo had a great time with her 2 golden retrievers and came home tired and happy. I highly recommend and will be reaching out to Samantha again :)
Katerina and Roland were wonderful with our Rosie! They gave her lots of exercise and attention, and managed her initial separation anxiety well (as I could see her settling in quickly in the many pictures and videos they shared!). We would definitely use them again if schedules allow.
