TJ and his family always take such great care of our pups! Anya had an absolute blast with them as always. It was her 1st birthday while we were out of town and TJ and his family went above and beyond to celebrate the day with her and send us plenty of photos! We will always recommend TJ!

Very nervous to leave our dogs, but Faafetai was very reassuring and respected our dogs’ special needs. He sent a lot of photos and made us feel at ease.

I highly recommend TJ! He is awesome! He sends videos and great pics! He responds quickly. Gigi loves him and his family! We have used his services several times. He is definitely our person for Gigi!

Faafetai was so amazing with our two dogs and newest puppy. We received pictures for the whole duration of the pups stay and they looked like they were having a blast! I cannot say enough good things about him and his family for treating our pups like their own.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
