Rose was amazing! We feel so fortunate to have come across Rose on Rover. We immediately felt comfortable entrusting her with our Maggie. Rose kept us up to date with cute photos and messages throughout Maggie’s stay. She handled Maggie and all her issues with ease and a smile. She even won our stubborn Maggie’s affectation which is high praise from Maggie! I would 100% use Rose’s service again and recommend her to everyone.

We had a wonderful experience with Alma, who invited our Whoopie into her home and family. When possible, Alma also arranges a meet and greet before the stay to ensure a good fit. Thank you so much Alma! We hope we can meet again and reunite dogs and people.

Alison is fantastic! My dog Porter had such a great time with her. Her communication, willingness to run/exercise with Porter, and her flexibility was wonderful. Such a relief to know that my dog is comfortable and enjoying himself hanging out with Alison as much as I enjoyed my vacation! Highly recommend!

Jessica was amazing! We booked this reservation last minute for a impromptu weekend getaway and they were super responsive. Throughout our pup’s stay at their home, we got pictures and updates. Anytime we checked in, we got prompt responses. We will rebook again when we need it. Thank you!

Elizabeth is awesome! We left our chihuahua with her for about 2 weeks while we were out of town, and we felt so comfortable knowing our little baby was in such a loving home, with someone who adores dogs as much as Elizabeth does! She sent us pictures, videos, and sweet little updates everyday, and we even had the opportunity to FaceTime with our little angel 🐾 We forgot to pack our dog’s winter coat, and it got quite cold, but Elizabeth had an extra coat that she bundled her in to make sure she was safe and warm on their walks through Evergreen. Also, our little pup gets nervous when we leave her and sometimes won’t eat because of it, but Elizabeth HAND FED her! And then she ate her whole dinner like that. Can you believe that? If that doesn’t tell you everything you need to know about how much Elizabeth cares, I don’t know what will. One more way that Elizabeth went above and beyond that really meant the world to us, was how flexible she was with scheduling. We had some unexpected very-last-minute changes to our trip, but Elizabeth was extremely accommodating, kind, and patient. She really had our back. Elizabeth is such a good person, and you can tell that she really cares about you, as well as your dog. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and above-and-beyond to take care of your beloved dog, look no further! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you Elizabeth!

Stephen was great watching my pup Piper. He was super accommodating on times and pick ups even though this was a last-minute request and even more so he was really gentle and welcoming on the fact that she had an accident and is a bit of a hyper energetic pup.

Jennifer is fantastic! She is an animal lover and a responsible pet owner herself, as well as my go-to dog walker and pet sitter for when I am traveling or need an extra hand. She is trustworthy, has a lifetime of experiences with animals of all kinds, and reliably cares for my dog and cat when I'm out of town. Please don't hesitate to add her to your pet care crew.

Andrew was absolutely fantastic. I had some unexpected complications with my trip and he was super flexible and took such care of Saga. An engaged and intuitive sitter Andrew was spectacular with communication and finding the things needed take my anxious pup feel right at home. Saga typically doesn't attach to new people very quickly but after we picked her up she was looking for Andrew the whole walk home. He goes above and beyond to care for those in his care and I am so very grateful. I can't recommend Andrew enough. Thank you so much!

About: Hi there! My unique dog boarding/sitting/walking skills and training that set me apart are the following: 1. I am a teacher and my plans for this summer are to spend my days hiking, walking, or relaxing in a fenced in backyard with a pool and some furry friends! 2. I am a life-long pet owner and animal lover. And I can’t dream up a better way to spend my time. Which means at least one of us is going to be in a wonderful mood every day! 3. My entire world is dog friendly and pet-aware. That means the primary focus is fur buddies; what they need, their safety, and their happiness! Pet-care on the days available, will be my primary focus. In fact I may also have one full-time and two part time helpers to assist me with walks and/or caring for my own pets while I care for yours ;) In terms of safety, trust & environment, I am equally as concerned as you are! Therefore, we can discuss your expectations versus my capacity before we work together:) The great news is that I love animals and know and respect how sensitive they are:) Some are social and zany while others need a peaceful routine.

Catharine provided a great home away from home for our pup! She was very responsive, sent great pictures, and was very flexible to work around us. Our pup had a great time and enjoyed having the company of her pups in Catherine's comfy home. Catharine was also very flexible, responsive, and accommodating when our flights were delayed. Overall great boarding experience!

Kathleen took great care of my big guy! It’s always tough with a nervous dog, especially one that’s 100lbs. She managed to keep him calm and safe during his stay and we are so grateful!
