“Loic, Kristen, and their kids took amazing care of our dog while we were away for 10 days! They were communicative and responsible and our dog had a amazing stay with them - lots of exercise, play time, and snuggles. We would wholeheartedly recommend them and would definitely use them again in the future!”

“Heather is amazing. Responds very fast and sends updates daily. Couldn’t have felt more comfortable with her watching my special needs dog. Will definitely book again.”

“Lena is so great! This is the 2nd time we book with her for taking care of our 2 senior pugs. They adjust so great to her family and the other dogs that she is sitting at the same time, that we even think they don't miss us at all. Lena is very communicative and patient with them, since they are old, and love her baby playing with them. When we pick Ramona and Rufián I'm so surprised how calmed are they arrive to our house 🥰”

“Elan took great care of our pup while we were away on a long trip. So grateful that I was able to trust he was in good hands as she communicated consistently about how he was doing, and he looked happy and well cared for everyday! Wouldn’t hesitate to leave him in her care again.”

“Wanqing was wonderful! She took care of my dog, Goldie, in my home for the afternoon. Goldie rarely lets anyone pick her up, but she was sitting in Wanqing's lap when I got home. Wanqing was arrived on time, actually early, was friendly and communicative during my time away. I definitely recommend Wanqing and will request her to dog sit Goldie again!”

“Ivy and her husband took great care of Mika and sent frequent updates during the boarding. Freddie also took care of Mika by checking on her when they were separated. Great experience!”

“My dogs had fun. This place is similar to a dog hotel where the dogs are allowed to roam around, better than any kennel! One of my dogs who could be aggressive towards others has done exceptionally well and she has hung out with other dogs as well. I would recommend this place!”

“Theresa and her family were fantastic caretakers of our pups. She sent lots of photos and kept us updated throughout each day. Her and her husband have such a calm, welcoming demeanor that my pups loved. They felt right at home!”
“Tuffy had such a great time Sunmee, Patrick and Conan. Tuffy had a bike versus 4 lb dog accident the day before he drop off date and he was sore and bruised. They took great care of him and he healed up in a couple of days. Their backyard was perfect for Tuffy and he didn’t want to come in. Tuffy would read with Conan at night and tuffy loves playing with Conan. They made Tuffy a part of their family and he was well taken care of. Thank you so much for your compassionate care of Tuffy!”

“Great communication, friendly, flexible, and very clearly loves dogs! I trust Kaylie with my two pups and wouldn’t hesitate to bring them back for other stays. They love the backyard and spending time with the resident dogs there!”

“Quang and his wife took care of muffy for 2 weeks while I was out of town and they did a great job! They offered a meet and greet before the stay, and during the stay, they sent daily pictures and videos, and updates on how Muffy was doing. Thank you!!”

“Kristen and her family took wonderful care of my pup! She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures and progress reports. He was clearly thriving when we picked him up nearly two weeks later. I know that he became another member of the family and was truly loved while we were gone. I'm so happy to have found Kristen and have already booked her again for this summer.”

“So thankful for Quinten’s care of our little Frenchie. We were anxious about traveling overseas because our fur baby had a UTI, but Quinten took such good care of her and gave her antibiotics each day right on time. He sent frequent updates to reassure us that she’s doing well. He seems to really love dogs and it shows!”

“McKenna was a wonderful sitter for my dog. She was flexible about drop off and pick up times, communicated right away, and offered my dog a fireworks-free stay on Mercer Island during 4th of July. I recommend her and would use her services again.”

“Lisa is amazing and our pup Lady loved her time there. Lisa was great at communicating and keeping us updated with pictures of Lady and their adventures. I always get a little nervous leaving our pup behind but Lisa’s was like a home away from home. Highly recommend her!! Thank you, Lisa - you’re the best!”

“Shay is kind and a great communicator. She sent pictures every day. Lily had a great time watching the birds and squirrels in Shay’s yard. I could tell Lily felt comfortable and she had such a great time, she didn’t really even want to come home!😂”

“Anping has been great, and I’ve used him repeatedly! He’s been super accommodating by keeping our dog separate from other dogs in the house and by understanding schedule changes due to travel delays. He was caring for our dog and let us know of a minor limp she was experiencing form a past injury.”


“Jamie was wonderful with our dogs during their first stay with them! As nervous puppy parents, we really appreciated the updates she sent, which helped us relax and enjoy our time away. She did a great job managing our puppy, who had a bit of potty-training regression in the new environment, and also helped our dogs get comfortable with the other dogs who were there. We highly recommend Jamie and would definitely book with her again!”

“Hyeyoung and her family took great care of George! She sent great updates each day about George. Her photos are amazing! She made George look like a vogue doggy. I will 100% be rebooking with her!”

Newcastle dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ani and Palavi have taken care of 2 different dogs for us on multiple occasions. They are wonderful, kind, flexible and very kind and thoughtful with the dogs. The dogs are well taken care of and very happy while we have been away. They are my first choice always for dog sitters.

⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Care and Peace of Mind!⭐⭐⭐ My husband and I cannot recommend Quinten enough! We needed to find a sitter who was available to care for our dogs while we were away for our wedding. This was our very first time boarding them, let alone for five consecutive days—so when we first brought them to his place for a meet-and-greet, we weren’t entirely sure what to expect. Quinten’s environment was exactly what we needed. Our boys weren't reactive at all around Quinten or the dogs. Quinten has a very calm demeanor, and his background in doggy daycare and veterinary care shines through immediately, showing a true, deep love for dogs. We instantly felt so comfortable that we knew right away we needed to book with him, completely skipping the need to meet with any other sitters. He sent us tons of adorable photo and video updates throughout the week, which we absolutely loved and appreciated. It completely took the stress out of being away from them. Quinten often watches 10+ dogs at a time, which turned out to be an amazing opportunity for our boys. Because they hadn't had many opportunities to bond with other dogs before this, being part of his "pack" provided them with a safe environment to socialize and learn pack dynamics. All the dogs Quinten watches are smaller breeds, which gave us an extra layer of comfort. Our dog, Milo, has joint issues, and we use stairs throughout the home to prevent jumping off the furniture. We felt reassured that Quinten already had his home perfectly set up safely for his dauchsund and other small pups just like ours. We felt right at home the second we walked through the door. Quinten is incredibly personable, a genuinely nice guy, and works from home, so he’s able to give the dogs alot of attention. Plus, on the rare occasion he isn't home, his wife is available to watch and care for them. His rates are fair and reasonable, which we especially appreciated since we were booking for two dogs. We are so glad we found Quinten. Milo and Loki came home happy, relaxed, and well-adjusted. When we take our honeymoon in October, we will definitely reach out to him again to care for them while we are out of the country. Thank you so much again Quinten for caring for our furbabies!! You are the best!!! 🥰🙏🐾

This was the 2nd time i had Kelzee watch Lucky. Hard to find a sitter to watch my little family member. Glad she was able to watch him again. I'll bring him to her again in the future. He loves running around the yard and her house fits his needs. Thank you Kelzee!

Patricia and her family were the perfect sitters for my anxious Boxer, Duke. At our meet and greet they asked great questions about his care and address all of my concerns. I received great communication and photos of Duke enjoying his time in their home. 10/10 would board Duke with them again.

I love that Julie sent videos of Tibbs so I saw how happy Tibbs was while boarding with her. He was well taken care of while we went away over the weekend. It was also very easy to communicate with Julie during Tibbs’ stay. I will book Tibbs with her again 100%. Thank you Julie!
Xiaoxiao has such a sweet way with pets. Zoë was nervous at her first stay away from us and she made her feel safe and loved - doing everything she could to make her feel comfortable. We will absolutely be booking again if Xioaxiao will have us. I trust her like family with my fur babies 🥰

Brian and his family were amazing hosts. Specifically, his wife was so welcoming and thorough, ensuring that they had all the information they needed for our pups and their family would have a great time together. We received regular consistent updates as well as pics showing how our two dogs were adjusting to spending time with them. We really appreciated that they have no other animals in the home, reducing any extra adjustments for our girls. We would definitely ask them again, if we needed overnight care.

Loic and Kristen are terrific dog sitters - this is my second time with them. Zorro loves to go on walks and that seems to match their family’s activity level well. I received many photos of Zorro taking walks and looking for wildlife and they understand how to manage Zorro’s leash reactivity. They are excellent communicators and seem to have enjoyed having Zorro around (and they confirmed that she’s a really easy dog to sit…. aside from the leash reactivity issue, which is very common with rescue dogs). I will be looking to book them in the future, if they are available.
