“This is the second time my two boys (GSD and Husky) stayed with Bri and they LOVE IT! My guys have special needs between daily medication and general senior dog problems but Bri handles them with grace and patience. I never have to worry when I drop the boys with her and her family- I know they're well cared for, just like home!”
“Andrea and Paul were a perfect fit for Jasper! They took excellent care of him. Their beautiful home is inviting and cozy. Their fenced in backyard was a real treat for Jasper. We received updates and pictures everyday. It was clear that Jasper was content, safe, and well cared for! In this day and age it can be difficult to find kind, trusting people to do business with. Andrea and Paul are just that and we are very happy to have found them. We will definitely be repeat clients. 🐶”
“This was our first time using Rover for one of our dogs so I was a little nervous. Janis sent pictures of our dog every day while we were gone. I felt very comfortable leaving Remy in her care. Our pup seemed happy and well taken care of. I would definitely recommend her to someone and will be reaching out again if we ever need a sitter. Thanks, Janis!”
“Bradley was great with Miso! He sent a ton of pictures and made sure he was well taken care of. It was a somewhat last minute trip and we were grateful Miso had fun and a great yard to enjoy”
“We highly recommend Shawne. She was responsive to all of our inquiries, and she kept us informed with daily updates and pictures. Our dog, Jak, seemed calm and happy in her care, which says a lot because he's a bit of a nervous nellie in unfamiliar settings. We would confidently utilize Shawne's sitting services again in the future.”
“Patricia was wonderful to Fiona and Seamus. Her hospitality and warmth made them right at home. They enjoyed the sunshine in her spacious backyard and made them feel right at home. The daily photos helped us keep up with the lovely times they had. She really got to know their funny antics that we so enjoy about them! We highly recommend her and will use her again in the future.”
“Lilliana was great and accommodated our change in schedule. Communication was fantastic from start to finish. She also took care of my pet's special needs..it was truly a pleasure to have Peachy in her care.”
“We just wanted to express our gratitude to Summer and her family for taking such great care of Cash while we were out of town. She had a fabulous time with you and your family! Thank you for welcoming her into your home and making her feel so comfortable. We really appreciated the updates and the wonderful pictures you sent. It was lovely to see how well she was doing! Summer, you’re awesome, and we will definitely be booking with you again in the future. Thanks again for a fantastic experience!”
“Jeremiah did a wonderful job watching over our temperamental Aussie. He was well exercised, ate his food normally and seemed very comfortable with Jeremiah. We will be booking with Jeremiah again.”
“Catherine was amazing and gave me a peace of mind sitting Dilly! She is very warm and loving, and kept us informed the entire stay with plenty of pictures! Dilly was happy and energetic at pick up and felt at home with Catherine! We will definitely have Dilly stay with Catherine again!”
“Once again Jordan has done a superb job with my pepper!! She did everything expected and some things unexpected in order for Pepper to have a great 4 days and for us not to worry❤️”

About: I've grown up living with dogs and have been the primary trainer for my family's dogs. I do pretty well working with new pets and can handle full size dogs. I'm an engineer who gets home from work around 4 or 5PM. My weekends are empty 3/4 weekends a month. I can do overnights on Sunday and during the work week if your dog is used to being alone 9-5. I have a small yard, and live next to the beach. I typically walk my dog to the beach 2-3 times a day on the weekend and she swims often. I usually use a harness to walk dogs, never leave them unattended outside since I have no fence. Make sure they have food twice a day and water always full.
“Our dog Moxy was very happy with her stay for eight days, and so was I. I received messages and pictures day with updates. The large fenced yard allowed Moxy to play run, and she also liked that she had another dog to play with who was staying at the same time. Highly recommended!!”
“Jennifer was great--if Sasha could talk I'm sure she say that she had a great time. It was our first time with Rover and Jennifer and we will definitely book with her again. She was very accommodating--letting us visit a few days before we boarded Sasha. She has a dog-friendly house and a good yard (not fenced but she uses a stake) and lives right next to a park in a very dog-walkable neighborhood.”
“Camille is amazing. My dog Mike was treated like a king. Fenced in backyard, cozy home atmosphere and tender loving care are all the requirements needed to put you at ease while you are away. Definitely will be using Camille again.”
“Tiffani was absolutely fantastic with Apollo! She sent updates and pictures and kept me completely informed about how everything was going. I'll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her!”
About: I've been taking care of dogs for most of my life. At one point in time I owned 5. I love dogs of all age and sizes. I work full time during the week but I am fortunate enough to able to come home for lunch and spend my time with my dog. I get out of work around 3 so my dog isnt left alone for more than 3 or 4 hours at a time ever. We spend our evenings at home playing in the fenced in yard, walking through the neighborhood or relaxing on the couch with a movie. I have a Yorkie and he loves to curl up on the couch with me. We have a fenced in yard and lots of space in the house for them to be comfortable.
“Mary Anne was very quick to respond to all my messages and was very pleasant when we met her in person. It appeared our dog had a great time playing in the yard with the other dogs.”
