“She's amazing!! Super accommodating when my flight was delayed from the snow. She took great care of my pup and updated me frequently with a video or picture! She's a great petsitter!!”

“Well this was our first time using Rover and a dog sitter. David was absolutely phenomenal and I would not have anyone else watch my dog. He goes above and beyond as a dog sitter. He and his family spent so much time with Chloe. Teaching her some commands, walking her and playing with her instead of locking her in a cage as a kennel would. He sent many videos and pics throughout her stay and it made us feel comfortable that she was in great hands. If 10 stars were the best rating I would give 20 stars. Thank you so much David.”

“This was our first time using Rover and it worked out great! Our 2 dogs stayed with Ryan and his wife for a week. Ryan sent us updates and pictures and we were so happy to hear that our dogs had settled in well with Tango and Whiskey! We would definitely have our dogs stay with them again.”

“Bridget was so easy to coordinate with and did a fantastic job taking care of Watson for a 3 night visit. Really great communication before and during the stay. Her dogs were super friendly and welcoming of Watson in their space right from the start which gave me good peace of mind while he was there. He literally didn’t want to leave when I picked him up so I think that says it all :) Thanks Bridget!”

“Summer was awesome! She sent pictures, responded quickly and cared for my pup with lots of love. I plan to refer her to friends/family and I will be booking again in the future.”

“Kirby had another great visit with Tom and Tolley! They always send pictures and/or videos. I never worry that he’s having a great time and being very well taken care of.”

“Michele saved my life, I always take my dog everywhere but for obvious reasons I couldn't go to Cedar Point. I contacted her and she quickly said yes. She walked her and took care of her until the afternoon. She sent me photos so I could check her status with my dog. Highly recommended. Thanks Michele.”

“Andrea was great, she is knowledgeable about dogs and worked with our dog. She was sitting a couple other dogs at the same time and the day I dropped her off , she introduced Daisy to a dog of a similar temperament so Daisy would have a friend. Also we were later than expected getting home and when I asked Andrea said we could pick Daisy up the next morning instead of the night we planned to pick her up.”

“Our travel plans changed last minute and Marcie was amazing about it! She kept our dog an extra day no problems! Sent me pics everyday like our dog was part of the family! Amazing!”

“Simply amazing, she treated my dog like her very own, great backyard with fence for dogs to run and play. She took my dog for many walks, we received frequent picture updates. Overall, highly recommend Karin and her husband”

“My chocolate Lab Bruno sprints from my car to her door every time I drop him off there. Needless to say he loves staying with Jenni and her family,and we have the peace of mind knowing he is loved and well taken care of.”

“Very happy with Michelle’s communication and how she treated our pup like he was part of their family. She kindly accommodated a meet-and-greet to make sure it was a good match. She sent occasional cute photos and assured us that he was doing well. We will be rebooking with Michelle next time we need a sitter.”

“Excellent service and care of my dog. Tina and Rick gave me multiple photos, videos, and text updates throughout the day. When my dog started displaying signs of distress, Tina went the extra mile and slept on the couch next to him. Even though my dog wasn't on his best behavior, I feel he was well cared for and he even left with a goody bag!”

“Roselie & Kevin are always so wonderful. Our pups have a great time and are always cared for well. We will continue to have our pups stay there when they are able to!”

“Great experience! We needed someone to watch our Shih-poo for the weekend last minute and are also new in town. We felt comfortable very quickly leaving Rocco with such a nice family. We received many updates and could see our dog was happy and felt at home. Swetha goes the extra mile. We will book again!”

“My dog Kai absolutely loved Martha!! She is so sweet and you can tell how much she loves and cares for animals! She sent pictures of my dog, washed his blanket and toy because he spilled his water on them, and is extremely flexible. I will definitely be using her in the future!!”
