“Lina and family were amazing, they took awesome care of Bella and I would absolutely book them again to pet sit my dog. She sent a lot of photos and communicated with us.”
“Thanks to this sweet family for treating our doggo as apart of the their family. They took on a very last minute request from us, gave our dog the time of his life with park visits, and were constantly showing us pics. Very blessed to have found this sweet family. 10/10 recommend”
“Svitlana was wonderful! She clearly knows and loves dogs. She was patient with settling our dog in and then went above and beyond with helping to get her energy expended. We loved seeing pictures of her happily playing. So thankful for the care!”
“Mary and her family are AWESOME! My dog Blue is a very small papillon and can be a little shy at first. Mary and her family did such a wonderful job making Blue feel right at home. She sent tons of super cute photos and updates and her son even brushed little Blue! I know my pup was living it up at her home and I felt so comfortable leaving her there. When I picked Blue up I could tell she really acclimated to being there! Mary’s family has two sweet doggies as well so Blue got some extra doggy socialization while she was there too. I’d recommend Mary and fam in a heartbeat and hope that Blue will be able to stay there again. 10/10 absolutely would recommend!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Nicholas was a Godsend! He was able to accommodate my last minute request, when a previous booking fell through. He was kind and flexible with my Roscoe! He sent me updates and pictures, which showed the Roscoe was doing well. I will definitely recommend and book with him again!”
“This was our first time leaving Pepe with a sitter and our first time using Rover, so we were a bit nervous, you never really know who you’re leaving your dog with. But Riley was exceptional from the very beginning. Even before I booked her, she helped me figure out how the app worked and made the whole process easy. During Pepe’s stay, she kept me 100% informed at all times with photos, videos, and messages. She was incredibly attentive, caring, and professional. I truly felt peace of mind knowing Pepe was in her hands. I have no doubt he was well cared for, and I would absolutely book her again. Thank you so much, Riley, for treating Pepe like your own dog, we truly appreciate it.”
“Our doodle had a great visit with Christine and Charles. We received regular updates and pictures on how everything was going. Their location & setup provides everything a pet needs. Looking forward to using their services in the future.”
“Paula took care of Kenny for six days. She did a wonderful job! He is recovering from CCL surgery and she was very attentive to his safety and comfort. He has some separation anxiety but was very comfortable staying with her. I would definitely use Paula again.”
“Jesse & Emily treated my Angel like she’s a family. Angel was greatly taken care of, even made friends with Hazel and Nola (kids). We received daily updates and pictures. We’re forever grateful for this family.”
“Yana is amazing! She took such great care of my dog and sent daily pictures and updates which gave me peace of mind that he was happy and healthy while I was away. Highly recommend her!”
“We’re always nervous about leaving our pups for the first time with someone, but Jani and Paul made us so comfortable! Plenty of picture updates and our pups seemed SO happy when we picked them up. You can tell they love animals, we will definitely be using them again!”
“James is awesome! He watched my little shih tzu, Levi for a couple days. He sent me pictures & was very wonderful with communication. Levi had a fun time with his dog, Spike as well. I will definitely be booking him again in the future.”
“Aly dog sat our Charlie boy for a few night and was awesome! Super responsive; sent updates and daily photos of Charlie. Much better experience for our guy vs. boarding at a kennel/boarder. Will absolutely rebook with Aly in the future!”
“Linkin had a wonderful time with Julie and her family! I could not have asked for a better communicator, and “fill in” dog mom while I was away! Linkin was well taken care of and sooo happy! Thank you for your help!”
“Hank came home exhausted which means he had a blast. Cynthia did a great job in every Dept from communication to updates throughout the weekend. We were extremely pleased with her work.”
“Hillary was fantastic! Whaley stayed with her for 10 days and we received continuous communication and pictures. He was even hesitant to leave her house when we went to pick him up because he was so happy there.”
“Ava was fantastic! We needed a sitter last minute and she was really kind with flexibility. Loved seeing the videos of our lazy couch potato beagle running around in the backyard!”
“Mark & DJ took great care of our babies. They sent us updates consistently & went the extra mile in checking what was best for both of our dogs. You can tell they have a passion for dogs (and photo skills!). We cant recommend them enough!”
“Katina went above and beyond our expectations! She was very loving to our golden doodle puppy, Sam, taught him behaviors, kept in touch with us every day with a photo and message, and generally put all our worries to rest. We recommend her with no reservations!”

Lissette and Bernie were super communicative and sent us lots of photos of Pebbles playing, walking and relaxing on her stay! It was our first time leaving her with a sitter while we traveled, and we felt very at ease leaving her with them, especially with her being a puppy!
Will and Vanessa are very good with our Dog. They have been taking care of our mini Australian Shepherd ever since we got her. They treat her like she is their dog. Our dog loves to go there. She look forward to it when we go around the corner, she knows where he’s going and she’s all excited. He loves to see their twin daughters as well as their older daughter. They are a 10+
Rebecca was absolutely amazing with our sheepadoodle Ottie. We were away in the Netherlands for 8 days and couldn't have asked for a better person to leave her with. Rebecca is highly professional in running her business - she knows what dogs need and has orderly systems in place for taking care of the pups - but she is also very loving and attentive with the dogs in her care. Ottie connected with her right away when we did our initial meet and greet and was happy to see her when we dropped off before we left for our trip. While away, Rebecca messaged us every day with updates and pics of our Ottie playing and having fun with the other dogs that she cares for, including some that are her own. Ottie got a bit of an upset stomach while we were away, but Rebecca let us know and went above and beyond to take care of her and help her to feel better. Overall, we never once felt stressed or worried about Ottie while we were away. We'll definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much Rebecca!
Penny was an outstanding sitter to work with. Our pups seemed to do really well with her and her own dogs. She was very accommodating, a great communicator, and super easy to work with in every respect. We were also sent plenty of pictures throughout their visit. I’d recommend Penny to anyone looking for help with their pet(s).
Paula was absolutely amazing with our dog and made her feel right at home from day one. She took excellent care of her, kept us at ease while we were away, and was incredibly flexible and accommodating when our return travel got complicated. We’re so grateful for her kindness and care when it came to taking care of our pup and would 100% book with her again — five stars without hesitation!
