“Great sitters. Zoro looked like he was very well taken care of, especially since I had to extend his stay with them twice. They were very accommodating of me and my situation. Would definitely use them again.”


“Dash can be high-strung and anxious, but he came back from Chris's seeming very content. We received at least a photo each day and I felt assured that Dash was in good hands. Chris was responsive and easy to communicate with.”


“Responsive and responsible! We had a great experience with Krysta. She was prompt in giving our dog his meds, sent pictures every day, and was very responsive. It's clear she and her husband understand how to set dogs up for success, and Indy was worn out and ready for naps when we got home. Would trust them again and would recommend them as a great option for dogsitting!”



“Heather is so sweet and clearly loves what she does. She’s particular and prepared in all the ways that make you confident leaving your pups. Very communicative and flexible. Thank you SO much!”


“They always do a great job with Boston, and he throughly enjoys his stay with Barry and the family. They do a great job of taking Boston out and keeping him comfy, and keep him in a homey environment. 11/10 would recommend.”


“Chelsea-Jo and her family were great to Coco. We had a great first experience with Rover. She was available last minute when our original sitter cancelled on the night we were to leave town for a Funeral. Her house was clean and her and her husband were super friendly! She updated me many times, including pictures, on how Coco was doing. From the photos, they played with her and she was happy and treated as she was one of their own. I would highly recommend using Chelsea-Jo and will definitely see if she’s available in the future when we need a sitter.”


“WOW! Dewey and Daisy had a FANTASTIC time at Camp Sandy's! I have never felt so good about leaving them anywhere! She and her husband and pups were great and the home was more than clean! I wouldn't hesitate to ask again (if she will have my mountain climbing pug back)! She constantly updated me with how they were and great pics of both of them! I cannot rate her high enough, but I hope she doesn't get too popular b/c it is now D&D's home away from home! You will love the whole experience, I promise!”


“Benji and his family took great care of Lucy. Benji was easy to communicate with and sent us pictures of Lucy every day. We look forward to booking Benji again in the future and referring our friends to him.”


“We love Telma! We can tell that our dog had a fantastic time with Telma. She also always sends us photos and is very communicative. We will definitely return for Telma’s service. Thank You once again!”


“Julia and her family took such care of our Senior Princess Cinnamon. I so appreciate all the love they give her and knowing she’s hanging out with Junior gave me peace of mind. Thank you so much!”

“Celina and her family took wonderful care of our large dog during a long boarding session. I never had any concerns that our dog was well taken care of during this stay.”


“We felt very comfortable having Elizabeth and her husband watch our fur babies! Excellent communication, great neighborhood and space, and very caring. 10/10 recommend!”


“As always, Vanessa provided amazing care for Opal while we were gone for 10 days! We contacted her last minute and she was very accommodating, responsive, and took amazing care of our puppy. We are very thankful for Vanessa and so happy we can trust her with Opal.”


“Maria was a wonderful help during our Thanksgiving holiday. This was our first time using Rover and she made us very comfortable. We knew our dogs were in great hands. Our flight home was delayed an hour and a half and she was very understanding of our delay.”


“Youngri was amazing. I felt completely at ease throughout the night, knowing that my senior dog was in good hands. It’s clear that she and her family have a genuine love and care for animals. She kept me updated on how my 16-year-old pup was doing and maintained a high level of professionalism at all times. I will definitely work with her again.”


“We had a fantastic experience with Emmanuel and will definitely entrust our golden retriever Gracie with him again! He helped us out on short notice for an overnight stay. He immediately built trust and communicated frequently while Gracie stayed with him. We are so glad we found him!”


“Deanna provided great care for my kitten, Boots! He can be a handful as he’s only 10 weeks old and she took great care of him and had a positive attitude with all of the kitten energy! She and her roommate were very helpful with transporting all of his supplies and making boarding an ease. She was very responsive when I texted. I would recommend Deanna for all of your kitten and pet needs!”

Dana was perfect for our dog, Riley. She was very attentive to our questions and very flexible with our changing vacation plans. We loved the constant updates (notes and pictures!) from Dana that we received while we were away. If we could give her 6 stars out of 5 we would!

Katherine took excellent care of our dog Goose. We were able to go on vacation knowing he was in good hands. He is a very energetic dog (springer spaniel) but got all the exercise he needed, especially with her dog to play with. He will definitely be staying with her again soon!

I had a last moment trip for work and Teresa was super helpful being able to help out and watch my two dogs on such short notice. She was great with them and showed them the same kind of love and care as if they were her own. They love Teresa and were so very excited to see her every day. She is very good at what she does and it is clear she loves all pets. I will definitely be asking her to watch my boys the next time I go out of town!

MC was incredibly attentive, and I could tell my senior dog really enjoyed his stay. She sent plenty of photos and was very thoughtful and detailed in helping him adjust to a new environment. If you’re looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and truly dedicated to animals, MC is the one. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!

Absolutely amazing! She sent pictures daily, took my dog to places he’s never seen, and showed him all the love. This was my first time with rover and I was nervous about having a stranger watch my prize possession. However, she worked with me and we were able to do a meet and greet before it was time for her to watch him. My dog loved her and I will definitely recommend her to ANYONE and EVERYONE!
