Wow! My little Luna had the pleasure of staying with Betsy for a quick last minute overnight, and she had such a great time! Betsy sent me updates and made sure Luna felt right at home during her stay. Luna is a little shy and timid with people she doesn’t know, but warmed right up to Betsy. She was able to accommodate my last minute need for a dog sitter, and I truly appreciate that. Luna will be so excited to visit Betsy again! :)

Kevin did an excellent job watching my dog Freddie for the weekend. He sent me lots of pictures throughout the day of Freddie playing with his pal Charlotte. I highly recommend Kevin and plan to have Freddie stay with him whenever I am out of town.

We are so pumped we found someone to trust our sensitive, teddy-bear of a pitty with when we travel! Jacquie and her hubby are true animal lovers and took care of our Cowboy just as if he was their own. I could tell when I arrived to pick him up that he was comfortable and at ease in their home. I fully trust them and would highly recommend them, especially if you have a sensitive pup that can get home sick!

Martha and Eric are truly perfect Rover sitters. They have a fenced in yard, Eric works from home, and you can tell that they both love dogs. Our dog Ruby stayed with them for the first time for five nights. We received regular updates, photos, and videos and knew consistently that she was getting the best care. Ruby had so much fun here we were afraid she wouldn't want to come home with us.

That was very much appreciated. We will definitely rebook with Catherine. Misiu was a happy boy the entire time, we weren’t missed 😆

Grace is awesome! We were going out of town for memorial day weekend for a wedding and totally forgot to book a dog sitter until the week before. Woody loved his time with Grace and it’s clear that he was very well taken care of. Grace is awesome at communicating before, during, and after the reservation. she took TONS of photos of Woody throughout the days that he was there and the constant updates from her were so nice and so needed since this was my first time using a dog sitter on rover. i’m such an anxious dog mom but Grace really eased my mind with her updates and photos which i appreciated so much.
