Amanda is the type of care provider we had dreamed of but never thought a person like her existed. Amanda, her husband and their home were all so warm and welcoming. It is so hard to believe that she could be all things, but she was. She was a caregiver to Henry with his special diet and many pills. She was an amazing communicator to me with photos in the morning and evening. And she was a companion and best friend to Henry, who followed her everywhere! All of this made a trip overseas so much less stressful. Amanda didn’t know I was that far away and on a different time zone. She didn’t know the updates she sent helped me get to sleep each night and made me less homesick. Amanda just was being her great self and sharing the fun photos of my dog in her care. It was exceptional! Amanda even took Henry for special walks just because she could tell he liked them. It was probably freezing outside, but she did it to make him happy. Like I said, Amanda is exceptional! My husband and I have had a dog in our life since the day we got married. They were all big dogs and we often had two at the same time. We kenneled them once or twice for short stays, and it was always so obvious when they returned that boarding them was a bad idea. They’d return home with hoarse voices, so it was obvious they were unhappy and barking for long lengths of time. Because two of our dogs were adopted as adults, we have sadly already experienced the loss of three. It took us a full year after the last loss to even consider bringing another dog into our lives. We had a lot of discussions of the pros and cons. One of the cons was that we had no family nearby who could watch a new dog if we ever traveled. I said there must be someone! The pros outweighed the cons and we adopted Henry even though we had nobody to watch him when we traveled. He came with us everywhere for years and became our family. We must have passed through 18 different states with him and a few provinces in Canada. After seeing Amanda and Henry in photos and in real life, now I want to leave town just so they can hang out again. It is so rare to find even family members who love your dog as you do. With Amanda, it was obvious Henry felt loved. He came home so happy and healthy and normal. I look forward to Henry spending time again with Amanda and her husband!

Kayla was great! I really appreciated how flexible she was when it came to the time I needed to drop and pick up my dog. I like how she sent me a picture and gave me updates while I was gone and that made me feel more comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

Oh, my goodness! Pattie is the best dog sitter ever! My Mini Labradoodle usually has high separation anxiety, and is very skittish around strangers, but he knew right away that he had friends in Pattie and her little Yorkie! He warmed right up, and felt right at home. Pattie sent many pictures and updates, and even sent daily letters from Buddy to Mom & Dad! I like that Pattie stays outside with the dogs in her fenced yard when they need to go outside. She also carefully followed each of my instructions that were written out for her, and messaged me when she had questions. Buddy felt comfortable on her lap as well as the dog bed that were available. I don’t think he missed us much at all. We will be sure to ask for Pattie the next time we have to be out of town!

Jess was very accommodating on a last minute trip I had planned. She was very flexible with my schedule and availability to meet. I was extremely nervous as this was my first time utilizing Rover, as I usually book with PetSmart but I wanted to make sure my senior dog was well taken care of as boarding can be stressful for older dogs. Once we had the meet and greet, my dogs immediately loved Jess. She made sure that their routine stayed as close to the same as at home to ensure their comfort, and sent pictures and updates daily (which I loved). Even when we picked our dogs up, they still wanted to play and love on her so I knew they had a blast. If you’re wary about booking with Jess, this review is for you, she was absolutely awesome.

Beverly took wonderful care of my Frenchie. She was quick to make Cookie feel right at home. Sent a lot of pictures and videos. There is always some anxiety when having someone care for your pet, but I knew within an hour my Cookie was in the right place. I would recommend Beverly to anyone who needs pet care and sitting services. So much better than a kennel. Your dog will be loved and will gets lots and lots of attention and love all day and all night.

I was beyond impressed with how much I could tell that she loved dogs. I was actually pretty nervous about leaving Tonic with a pet sitter, first time jitters. But I'm extremely pleased to say that those fears were unwarranted. I would gladly rebook her and I will definitely be recommending her to my friends.

I had a wonderful experience with Crystal and Ambria . They were professional, kind, and treated my dog like their own. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, well-cared for, and clearly enjoyed their time. I highly recommend both Crystal and Ambria to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter! Just to add…. They went above and beyond while caring for my dog, who has some medical issues that require extra attention. They followed all instructions carefully, gave medications on time, and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout the stay. It was such a relief knowing my dog was in caring and capable hands.
