“Our pup did great at Mandi’s! I didn’t have to worry at all because she sent pictures of his day and an update of what he did. She was so sweet to send him home with a personalized bandana and a jar of homemade treats! Definitely recommend!”
“Timothy is an excellent Rover sitter! He boarded our dog at his house for 9 nights. I like that he had us do a meet and greet first to ensure our dog would be a good fit. This was our first time using a sitter and I was nervous at first, but Timothy had great communication and I really appreciated the regular updates and great pictures. Our dog did well socializing and playing with the other dogs there. We will definitely be booking with Timothy again!”

“We had a great experience leaving our Aussidoodle, Willie, with Cynthia and her sweet lab, Luna.

I won't hesitate to request Cynthia for future boarding.”

“This was my second time booking with Rachael and Joe and they are truly wonderful. My husky, who has major trust issues, simply lovessss staying with them. He got so excited when we pulled up to their house and he darted to their door to go inside, he didn'tcare that I even existed when we got there because he just wanted to go play. They do a wonderful job of sending updates and pictures. I will continue to use them every time I need a sitter. 100% recommend.”

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
